About

A Claude Code skill + local daemon that enables pasting clipboard images into a Claude Code session on a remote server over SSH.

Claude Code doesn't natively support pasting images over SSH. This project solves that with a similar approach to sshimg.nvim, but specifically for Claude Code.

1. The `/paste-image` skill runs the `ccimg` client on the remote server, which sends a TCP request to `127.0.0.1:9998` (forwarded through the SSH reverse tunnel to the local machine) 2. `ccimgd` reads the PNG image from the local clipboard (`wl-paste` on Wayland, `xclip` on X11, `pngpaste` on macOS) 3. The image is returned as base64-encoded JSON 4. `ccimg` saves it as a temporary PNG file and prints the path 5. The skill uses Claude's `Read` tool to display the image
