Title: Do you think a layman can modify CopyQ into a multi-LLM AI assistant?

Post:

Hi everyone,

I'm quite tired of the constant copying and pasting in my workflow (which is primarily why I've used CopyQ). Recently, I've seen some people use Cursor AI IDE as a file reader, especially for markdown (.md) documents, and they're using it to read Obsidian's markdown files directly.

However, I use MindManager, where the maps are saved as .mmap files. These files are essentially zipped XML plus graphics, making it likely challenging for Cursor (even with plugins) to handle. Instead of relying on indirect methods, I want to integrate LLMs directly with MindManager.

While exploring options, I realized that I might be able to achieve this through a clipboard manager. Specifically, CopyQ could be useful since all my workflow is effectively just copy, paste, and repeat.

I’ve read that CopyQ is built with C++ for Windows and Linux and it supports the Action command. According to ChatGPT, this Action command can potentially be modified to use Python scripts. This means I could grab the clipboard or a specific message, send it to the ChatGPT API (I plan to use an unofficial API, not just due to cost, but also for memory retention), and then have the results returned to the clipboard manager and pasted.

This could even extend to handling images, files, etc., making it quite versatile.

Do you think this approach could work well? Are there any suggestions or comments on how feasible this might be for a non-expert like myself?

Thanks!

I have asked, but not yet tested/implemented it.

basically, the python script itself:
Certainly. Here's a concise summary of what the script does:

This CopyQ command script creates a graphical user interface (GUI) for interacting with a language model API using clipboard content. Here's what it does:

1. Reads the current clipboard content when activated.

2. Opens a GUI window with the following features:

   • A dropdown menu to select from previously saved prompts
   • A text area to view and edit the selected prompt or enter a new one
   • Radio buttons to choose whether to place the prompt before or after the clipboard content

3. Allows users to save new prompts for future use.

4. When the user clicks "Send":

   • Combines the prompt and clipboard content based on the selected position
   • Sends this combined text to a specified language model API
   • Receives the response from the API

5. Adds the API's response as a new item in CopyQ's clipboard history.

This script effectively turns CopyQ into an interface for easily sending clipboard content to a language model, with the ability to add custom prompts and control their placement. It's designed to streamline the process of using AI language models within a user's regular clipboard workflow.

and claude 3.5 say use this way with CopyQ:
Certainly. Here's how to use the script in CopyQ:

1. Set up the script in CopyQ:

   • Open CopyQ
   • Go to "File" -> "Commands" -> "New"
   • Give the command a name, like "Send to LLM (GUI)"
   • Paste the entire script into the "Command" field
   • Set "Input" to "Text in current item"
   • Set "Output" to "Insert as new item"
   • Optionally, assign a keyboard shortcut for quick access

2. Using the script:

   • Copy any text you want to send to the language model
   • Activate the command in CopyQ (either through the menu or using your assigned shortcut)
   • A GUI window will appear

3. In the GUI window:

   • Select a saved prompt from the dropdown menu, or enter a new one in the text area
   • Choose whether to place the prompt before or after your copied text
   • Click "Send"

4. After clicking "Send":

   • The script combines your prompt and copied text
   • Sends it to the language model API
   • Receives the response
   • Adds the response as a new item in CopyQ's clipboard history

5. You can then paste the response wherever you need it, or access it later from CopyQ's history

Remember to replace the placeholder API URL and key in the script with your actual language model API details before using.
