Command X-V

Cut and paste files in macOS

What it does

Command X-V is a free, open-source macOS utility that implements standard ⌘X cut and ⌘V paste keyboard-driven file operations directly in Finder. It is context-aware—automatically detecting active text fields to prevent input conflicts—and runs completely invisibly in the background. Built strictly with privacy in mind, it operates entirely offline with zero telemetry or tracking. Available as a code-signed and notarized Universal Binary (macOS 13+).

I tried many third-party clipboard managers like Alfred, Raycast, Paste, Maccy, etc. While great, they didn't fully meet my needs. As a developer, my requirements are: 1. Keyboard-centric operation to avoid using the mouse. I don’t want to waste my time…

    Today, I’m proud to announce Homebrew 6.0.0. The most significant changes since 5.1.0 are a new tap trust security mechanism, the new faster, smaller, default internal Homebrew JSON API, sandboxing on Linux, better defaults informed by our user survey, many brew bundle improvements, improved performance and initial support for macOS 27 (Golden Gate). Happy to discuss any questions here!
