Workflow

Use this skill when the user explicitly wants clipboard output.

•Identify the source to copy.

•If the user provides a file path, copy that file.
•If no path is provided, default to sections/02_1_overview.tex when it exists in the current workspace.
•If the user wants generated text copied, pass the text through stdin.

•Run the bundled script.

•File copy: scripts/copy_to_clipboard.sh <path>
•Default file copy: scripts/copy_to_clipboard.sh
•Text copy via stdin: printf '%s' "<text>" | scripts/copy_to_clipboard.sh -

•Confirm the result.

•Report exactly what was copied.
•If copying fails, report the reason (pbcopy unavailable, file missing, or permission issue).

Notes

•This skill is macOS-specific and requires pbcopy.
•In sandboxed sessions, clipboard access may require escalated permissions.
