Default destination is Drafts; override to clipboard only when the user explicitly says "pbcopy", "clipboard", or "to clipboard". Drafts triggers: "copy it", "give it to me", "send it to me", "give me a draft", "send to drafts", "read it back", "what does it say", "pull from drafts", "get the draft", or /drafts.

Drafts
Content exchange between Claude and the user via the drafts CLI on macOS.
Write to Drafts (default)
Create a new draft, tagged so the user can filter Claude-generated content:
drafts create "CONTENT HERE" --tag claude
Confirm: "Sent to Drafts."
Read from Drafts
Read the currently open draft on the user's Mac:
drafts current
If the user references a draft by description rather than what's open, search:
drafts --json search "QUERY"
If drafts current returns empty, ask the user to open the draft on their Mac.
Iterating on a draft
When the user wants to refine an existing draft, capture the UUID from the read
and update in place rather than creating a new one:
drafts update <uuid> "REVISED CONTENT"
Write to clipboard (explicit override only)
Only when the user explicitly says "pbcopy", "clipboard", or "to clipboard":
printf '%s' "CONTENT HERE" | pbcopy
Confirm: "Copied to clipboard."
Behavior
- When the user asks to send/copy/give content, identify the most recent draft or
content from the conversation and write it.
- When the user asks to read back or check edits, read from Drafts and display the content.
- During iterative editing sessions, read back automatically when the user indicates they made changes.
- Default to Drafts. Only use pbcopy when the user explicitly names "clipboard" or "pbcopy".
- Always tag Claude-created drafts with
claude.
