Why would anyone build with this?

REASON 1

Copy a link or tracking number and have it open directly in the matching app.

REASON 2

Download and configure community-shared clipboard rules from the built-in cloud rules page.

REASON 3

Write a custom rule that extracts parts of copied text to build a destination link.

REASON 4

Choose which cloned app instance to open when a device has app clones installed.

Wtf does this do

HyperCopy is an Android module that watches what you copy to your clipboard and, if the copied text matches a rule, jumps straight into the right app instead of making you manually open the app, search, and paste. For example, copying a shipping tracking number or a link to a video site could open the matching app directly, skipping several manual steps. The app supports two ways of monitoring the clipboard: LSPosed, which requires a rooted or modified Android system, and Shizuku, which works without root access. When a copied item matches a rule, HyperCopy can either open the target app right away or show a notification first so you can confirm the jump, including a notification style modeled on Xiaomi's Super Island feature. If it detects that an app has multiple cloned instances installed, it can ask which instance you want to open. Rules can be added manually or downloaded from a built-in cloud rules page that lets you search for and one-click configure rules for popular apps. Each rule is stored as a JSON entry with fields for a matching pattern, the target app's package name, and a template system that can extract parts of the copied text, such as capturing groups from a regular expression or a URL found inside the copied content, and insert them into the destination link. To build HyperCopy from source, you need Android Studio, JDK 17, and the Android SDK installed, then run a single Gradle command. The README notes that a license file has not yet been added to the project, and welcomes issues and pull requests from contributors.
