Original Reddit post

ok this is small but its been quietly bugging me for months so i finally just fixed it. you know when you copy something out of claude code - some output, a file tree, one of those ╭───╮ boxes or “>” it draws - and paste it into a PR description or notion or slack, and it comes out completely mangled? hard line breaks in the middle of sentences, weird leading spaces on every line, box characters everywhere, sometimes invisible unicode spaces that quietly break your code blocks. i was manually cleaning that up like 10 times a day. so i made a little browser tool that just does it for you. paste the mangled text in, it strips the junk and shows you how many of each thing it found, you click copy, done. it handles around 8 different artifacts stuff i actually cared about: it runs 100% in your browser, nothing gets uploaded anywhere, and its free with no signup. wasnt about to make people log in just to paste text. its genuinely a tiny tool and im not trying to oversell it https://mesmer.tools/free-tools/terminal-paste-cleaner if anyone wants to throw cursed terminal output at it and tell me what it misses id appreciate it, theres definitely edge cases i havent hit yet. submitted by /u/mesmerlord
