Frequently Asked Questions

How does Magic Paste (Ctrl + V) work?

When you press Ctrl+V (or ⌘V) anywhere on the page, DevScratchpad client-side parser inspects your clipboard. If it detects a recognizable format (like a JWT token, cURL snippet, raw SVG, valid JSON, SQL query, or timestamp), it switches you directly to the relevant tool and pre-populates your formatted output with zero friction.
