pocket

pocket is a dead-simple file clipboard for the terminal. Add files or directories to a persistent clipboard, then release them (copy or move) to any directory later — all from the command line.

The clipboard is stored as a JSON file at ~/.pocketrc, and paths are resolved to absolute so it works regardless of your current working directory. Built with cobra in Go.
