Copy Command Blocks

sivtr copy reads the structured shell session log created by shell integration. It does not require opening the browser.

Install shell integration first if command-block copy has no data:

sivtr init powershell
# or: sivtr init bash / zsh / nushell

Restart the shell after installation.

Basic modes

sivtr copy
sivtr copy in
sivtr copy out
sivtr copy cmd

Command	Copies
`sivtr copy`	Input plus output
`sivtr copy in`	Input only, including prompt by default
`sivtr copy out`	Output only
`sivtr copy cmd`	Bare command only

Aliases:

Selectors are relative to the newest command block:

sivtr copy 1
sivtr copy out 2
sivtr copy in 2..4

1 is the latest block. 2 is the previous block. 2..4 selects several recent blocks. See Selectors and Filters for the shared syntax.

Use --print to see what was copied:

sivtr copy out --print

The text is still copied to the clipboard.

Use --ansi when you want colored terminal sequences preserved:

sivtr copy out --ansi

This only has an effect when the session entry has ANSI-preserved output.

Input-copying modes preserve the original prompt by default. Override it with --prompt:

sivtr copy in --prompt ":"
sivtr copy --prompt ">"

If the prompt does not end with whitespace, sivtr inserts one space before the command.

Filters run after selected blocks are assembled.

sivtr copy out --regex panic
sivtr copy out --lines 10:20
sivtr copy out --lines 1,3,8:12

If both filters are set, --regex runs first and --lines runs on the filtered result.

Open an interactive picker:

sivtr copy --pick
sivtr copy out --pick
sivtr copy cmd --pick

Useful picker keys:

Key	Action
`j` / `k`	Move
`Space`	Toggle current entry
`v`	Mark range anchor
`a`	Toggle all
`:`	Start a temporary line filter for the next copy
`p`	Toggle preview
`t`	Open Vim-style full view
`Enter`	Confirm
`Backspace`	Edit the pending line filter
`Esc`	Cancel

The Vim-style full view supports [[ and ]] to jump blocks, myy / myi / myo / myc to copy, and mvv / mvi / mvo to select.
