PasteLocal /paste-history — Grok Skill

Bring a previous entry from the laptop's clipboard history (text or screenshot) into the remote session. Supports --list + --index, --search + --id (Recall-powered), and relay fallback for recent items.

When to use

• User says "paste the previous screenshot", "grab that error from history", "the docker log I copied 5 minutes ago", "search my clipboard for the nginx config".
• The plain /paste (latest only) is insufficient.
• Works best over SSH tunnel; relay path provides recent auto-uploaded items.

Steps (execute in order)

1. Try the SSH-tunnel path first (full history + search):

• Use pastelocal-remote --list to see recent, then pastelocal-remote --index N
• Or better for agents: pastelocal-remote --search "the docker volume error" --limit 5 then pastelocal-remote --id <stable-id>
• The command prints a file path (and optional .analysis.txt sidecar for images with VisionPaste).

1. If the SSH path fails or in pure-relay multi-device setup (no direct tunnel):

• Use pastelocal-remote --relay <url> (fetches the most recent pending item pushed via auto-upload or manual send).
• Relay provides only the most recent pushed item via plain --relay (advanced --list/--search/--id over relay not directly supported; use SSH for full history or ask user to push the desired item via relay send).

1. On any failure (non-zero exit): Report the exact stderr to the user verbatim and stop. Do not retry or guess.

1. Read the file using your Read tool on the exact path returned.

1. VisionPaste enrichment: If image and analysis sidecar exists, read the .analysis.txt first for OCR/description.

1. Clean up: Immediately run rm <path> and sidecar.

1. Confirm with one short line:

• "Got it, image attached from history."
• "Got it, text attached from history."
• If via relay: "Got it via relay from recent history."

Tips for great UX

• Prefer --id (from search) over --index because list order can shift.
• --search requires [recall] enabled on the laptop daemon + embeddings.
• Concealed items (password popups) are filtered and never appear in history or relay uploads.
• For named reusable items, suggest user saves with pastelocal snippets save <name> and use /paste-snippet instead.
• Pairs with /recall for pure semantic search UX.

This is the Grok-native history equivalent. It prefers SSH for complete access and falls back gracefully for relay-based recent items.
