Util.Clipboard behaviour (fnord v0.9.39)

View Source

Seam over the system clipboard. The Clipboard hex package shells out to the platform's clipboard utility (pbcopy/xclip/etc.), so copying is an outward-facing side effect: it overwrites whatever the user currently has on their clipboard. All clipboard writes route through this module so tests can substitute a Mox double instead of clobbering the developer's clipboard mid-suite. impl/0 resolves the :clipboard Globals key (same dispatch pattern as :http_client), defaulting to the passthrough in the sibling Default module.
