Using AI to polish your writing shouldn't leave awkward traces. AI chat output can contain invisible characters and stylistic markers that survive copying and pasting. Clipboard Sanitizer is a macOS menu bar app that automatically removes those markers when you copy text. Everything happens locally on your Mac. Keep a simple polish from turning into "AI slop." Disclaimer: the above is polished by ChatGPT and cleaned by Clipboard Sanitizer.
