How to build and test OpenClip from source with Openclip

Clone the Swift project, generate the Xcode project, and run the dev and test scripts.

Who it is forA macOS developer who wants to change OpenClip or check a fork before relying on it.

The problemA developer needs a working local build before making changes to the app.

The outcomeThe app builds and runs locally, and the test script finishes.

What you need first

  • A Mac running macOS 14 or later
  • Accessibility permission granted to OpenClip
  • Homebrew for the recommended install

Steps

  1. Install XcodeGen with brew install xcodegen. The README requires macOS 14+ and Xcode 16+.
  2. Clone the repo with git clone https://github.com/ganeshmshetty/openclip.git and enter it with cd openclip.
  3. Generate the Xcode project with xcodegen generate.
  4. Build and run with ./scripts/dev_run.sh, then run tests with ./scripts/test.sh.

Prompt for your agent

Clone https://github.com/ganeshmshetty/openclip on a Mac with macOS 14+ and Xcode 16+, run `xcodegen generate`, then run `./scripts/test.sh`. Expected output: the test script completes and reports its result. Verify the exit status is zero before reporting success.

Caveat. The README does not say what the test script covers, so a passing run does not confirm every feature works.
