Snippets

Reusable snippets with placeholders

Save commands, queries, and boilerplate you use every day. Placeholders like {{DATE}}, {{UUID}}, and {{CLIPBOARD}} expand at paste time. Works for curl commands, SQL queries, config blocks, and API calls—anything you rebuild repeatedly.

When this matters

You write the same curl command or SQL query every day. Or you have a curl template with a placeholder auth header. Snippets let you save it once and paste it with one shortcut—placeholders fill in at paste time.

  1. Save a command, query, or config block as a snippet
  2. Add placeholders like {{API_KEY}} or {{DATE}}
  3. Paste with Cmd+Shift+S — placeholders expand automatically

Use {{API_KEY}} for reusable templates. Dynamic placeholders {{DATE}}, {{UUID}}, {{TIMESTAMP}}, {{TIME}}, {{DATETIME}} expand at paste time. {{CLIPBOARD}} and {{LAST_CLIP}} expand to current clipboard or last clip.
Organize.
Tags (API, SQL, Config, etc.) and folders. Name and search your saved snippets.
