Key point

A tool was released that automatically pastes screenshots captured on macOS into Claude Code.

Details

On macOS, capturing an area with cmd+shift+2 pastes the screenshot straight into Claude Code.

Even if you take multiple shots in a row, they queue up as a multi-shot queue, and when you return to the Claude Code terminal, they're automatically pasted in the order they were taken.

  • It works by detecting terminal focus and flushing the queue.
  • Even while Korean, Japanese, or Chinese IME is active, it switches to ABC before pasting, then restores the original state.
  • It supports tmux, iTerm2, and cmux, and you can pin a session target with claude-ss target set.
  • Manual control is also possible via the Claude Code slash commands /ss, /ss-all, and /ss-clear.
  • It's released under the MIT license, and installed by running npm install -g @jidohyun/claude-ss followed by claude-ss setup and claude-ss start.
  • It can also be installed via the Claude Code plugin marketplace path.
