About

What it does

dnvriend-paste-image-to-file-tool is a Claude Code plugin listing for a small Python CLI that takes an image from your system clipboard and persists it as a file. Solo builders constantly screenshot UI states, error dialogs, or Figma exports while working with Claude Code or Cursor, then hunt for Downloads folders or misnamed PNGs. This tool standardizes the step: paste once, get a predictable file path your agent can read, commit, or embed in markdown. It is narrowly scoped agent-tooling—not image editing, hosting, or OCR. Expect beginner complexity if Python and clipboard access work on your OS. It will not replace screenshot annotation apps or cloud asset DAMs; it is the fast path from clipboard to repo-relative assets during Build. Register the marketplace plugin and document the CLI invocation in your project scripts or agent instructions.

Highlights

  • Writes pasted clipboard images directly to files on disk
  • Python-based CLI suited to local dev environments
  • Reduces friction when capturing screenshots for bug reports or docs
  • Single-plugin marketplace bundle from dnvriend
  • Pairs with markdown and quiz or doc pipelines that need image paths

Why builders use it

Clipboard screenshots never land in your project tree with consistent names, so agents and docs break when you reference images.

After paste, you get a saved image file path ready for markdown, tickets, or git without manual Finder saves.
