## Clipy

> Screen recorder that gives coding agents context from your video

- Category: [Developer Tools](https://another.directory/categories/developer-tools)

- Tags: ai agents, claude code, mcp, chrome extension, bug reports, screen recording
- Listed: 3 Nov 2026
- Updated: 9 Nov 2026

### What is Clipy?

A user records a tab, window or full screen with narration, using the Mac or Windows app, the Chrome extension, the web recorder or a mobile app. Clipy processes the recording into an AI summary, a timestamped transcript, key moments with frames, click targets and cursor paths. The share link plays as a normal video for people and returns a structured document for agents.

To hand a recording to an agent, the user installs the Clipy skill and pastes a public link into Claude Code, Cursor or Codex. For private libraries there is an MCP server and a CLI, which can also record proof of an agent's own work. In the Mac app and Chrome extension, holding Control draws a highlight trail, and the end of the gesture is saved as a key moment. The site also offers a Loom video download and a guide for using Loom recordings with Claude Code.

### Who is Clipy for?

Developers and designers who use coding agents and want to show a bug or UI change instead of typing it out. It also fits teams collecting client feedback or code review walkthroughs, and people moving over from Loom who want their recordings to feed an agent.

### Highlights

- Share link gives people a video and agents a summary, transcript, clicks and key-moment frames
- Works with Claude Code, Cursor and Codex through a skill, CLI and MCP server
- Flare: hold Control to draw a pointer trail that becomes a key moment
- Mac and Windows apps, Chrome extension, web recorder, iPhone, iPad and Android
- Windows installer as .exe, MSI or portable ZIP; Mac install via Homebrew
- Share links open without viewer sign-in

### How much does Clipy cost?

Free trial. The site says it is free to start, and the llms.txt mentions a seven-day free trial with no card. Paid plan prices are not stated in the provided text.
