Clipy documentation
Quick answer
What does Clipy documentation cover?
Clipy documentation explains how to share a recording with people and AI agents. Start with the Clipy skill for public links, use the CLI or MCP for authenticated workflows, and consult the recording.md and AREC references when you need the technical format behind an agent-readable recording.
How do you find the right Clipy reference?
Choose the path that matches the job. Product documentation answers how to use Clipy; educational guides explain the ideas behind agent-readable recordings; glossary pages define one term at a time.
Getting started
Choose the right way to hand a Clipy recording to an agent.
Agent tools
Use Clipy from a terminal or an authenticated MCP client.
Recording format
Understand the structured evidence that makes a recording agent-readable.
Learn and reference
Go deeper without mixing educational material into product reference.
Common documentation questions
Where should I start with Clipy documentation?
Install the Clipy skill if you want an agent to understand public Clipy links. Use the CLI or MCP reference when the agent needs authenticated access to your private library or needs to record on its own.
What is the difference between the Clipy skill, CLI, and MCP server?
The skill is the default, no-key path for public pasted links. The CLI is for terminals, scripts, and CI. MCP is for authenticated tool calls, private-library search, and agent-side recording from MCP clients.
What is recording.md?
recording.md is the agent-readable markdown twin of a public Clipy recording. It contains the summary, key moments with generated frames and click evidence when captured, and the timestamped transcript.
Are Docs, Learn, and Glossary the same thing?
No. Docs is the product and technical reference. Learn contains explanatory guides and tutorials. The Glossary provides one durable definition per agent-readable-recording term. Tools remain separate because they are interactive utilities.
