ScreenClip
by Reizi
ScreenClip is a client-side Fabric, Forge and NeoForge mod that copies each screenshot to the system clipboard automatically after it is taken.
What it does
Once a screenshot is saved, the mod places the image on the clipboard as well, so it can be pasted straight into a chat, a document or an image editor without opening the screenshots folder. The feature is meant to stay lightweight and simple, with no extra interface to learn.
Builds exist for 1.21.10 only, written in Java and Kotlin, and the Fabric build needs Fabric API and Fabric Language Kotlin. The Forge and NeoForge files share the same single version. Only the player's game needs it, and servers run without it. The code is published under the Creative Commons Attribution Non Commercial Share Alike 4.0 license, and the project is not open source, though its source code and issue tracker are public. The mod was first published on 2025-10-08 and last updated on 2026-06-08.
The author notes that clipboard handling on macOS and Linux has not yet been verified, so behaviour on those systems is not confirmed. Support for more Quilt 26.x versions is planned for later releases.

Use cases
Who it’s for: Players on Fabric, Forge or NeoForge who take screenshots often and want them available on the clipboard right away. The mod suits single-player and multiplayer clients alike, since servers do not need it.
