Clean Copy

I got tired of copying a note and pasting it somewhere only to see the YAML frontmatter at the top. So I made this plugin. It copies your note to clipboard without the frontmatter or cleans it before copy. That's the main thing.

What it does

  • Removes the --- frontmatter block at the top
  • Turns [[wikilinks]] into plain text
  • Strips inline #tags
  • Removes ^block-id anchors
  • Cleans up callout syntax (> [!NOTE] etc.)
  • Optional: strip all Markdown formatting too (bold, italic, headings) — off by default

If you select text first, it copies just the selection. Otherwise it copies the whole note.

Usage

  • Click the ribbon icon on the left sidebar, or
  • Use the command palette → "Copy note without properties"
  • There's also a "Copy as plain text" command if you want everything stripped, including formatting

Settings

Go to Settings → Clean Copy to toggle what gets removed. Everything is on by default except the Markdown formatting stripping.
