A small joy:

You copy a hex from Figma. Hours later you need it.
You don't remember the digits. You just remember what color it looked similar to.

Type "indigo" into Yank. There it is.

The test for whether an app is actually trustworthy isn't the privacy page. It's whether the app still works when you unplug the network.

Yank does. The embedding model is bundled (~130 MB BGE-small ONNX). Search is SQLite FTS5 + a vector column, locally. No API key, no telemetry, no account screen.

Ship log for Yank, week of Jun 8:

• Silent auto-update on launch (Tauri v2 updater + signing key, losing that key is one-way, by the way)
• Subtle GitHub Issues link in the Tweaks panel
• v0.7.35 released

Deliberately taking a polish-week before the next big feature. A clipboard manager earns trust by being boring most of the time.
