Desktop app # Paste images into cloud coding agents. Copy a screenshot — or press ⇧⌘2 — and a hosted image URL lands on your clipboard, ready to paste into **Codex cloud**, **Claude Code on the web**, **Cursor**, or any remote / sandbox agent that can't take a pasted image. The remote side needs nothing installed. [Download for macOS](https://github.com/pixelvault-dev/desktop/releases/download/v0.3.0/PixelVault_0.3.0_universal.dmg) [Linux (.deb / .AppImage)](https://github.com/pixelvault-dev/desktop/releases/latest) or with Homebrew: `brew install --cask pixelvault-dev/tap/pixelvault` Free & open source (MIT) · [GitHub](https://github.com/pixelvault-dev/desktop) · Universal macOS (Apple Silicon + Intel) Not yet notarized — on macOS, right-click the app → **Open** the first time to get past Gatekeeper. ### Two ways to capture Press ⇧⌘2 for a native region capture, or just copy any image (⇧⌃⌘4). Either way you get a hosted URL — no editing, no upload dialog. ### Agent-ready URLs The link resolves to the **raw image**, not a viewer page — so an agent can actually fetch and read it. Every URL supports on-the-fly transforms too. ### Zero install on the remote The app runs on your machine; the agent or sandbox only ever receives a URL. Works over SSH, in Daytona / e2b, and cloud CLIs — nothing to set up on the other side. ### Ephemeral by default Anonymous uploads expire in ~30 days. Sign in (passwordless, email-only) for uploads saved to your account and a history you can re-copy from. ### Private links Signed in, flip on **Private uploads** in Settings and your clipboard gets a **signed URL** that expires on your schedule (default 7 days) — shareable, but not public or guessable. ### Lives in your menu bar No Dock clutter, no window in the way. An _"Image URL copied"_ notification is your cue — then ⌘V to paste. ### Works with any agent Codex cloud, Claude Code (web & CLI), Cursor background agents, and anything else that takes a URL. Pairs with the `/pixelvault-desktop` Claude Code skill. ## Grab the app Copy an image, paste a URL. Free, open source, and backed by PixelVault's edge image host.
