L2Cache vs. Raycast 剪贴板 History
Raycast is an all-in-one launcher with a built-in clipboard history extension. While convenient for existing Raycast power users, it consumes significant background RAM (250MB+) and lacks dedicated on-device OCR search, code sanitization for LLM prompts, and hardware Touch ID credential locking. L2Cache is a focused, ultra-lightweight (<35MB) native clipboard intelligence engine built exclusively for macOS.
On-Device Apple 智能
Search semantic concepts ('that docker error') and extract text from screenshot images via native OCR without cloud round-trips.
Touch ID Credential Radar
Automatically scans and masks API keys (Open人工智能, AWS, Stripe) and passwords behind hardware Touch ID biometric authentication.

💡 Deep-Dive: Why Developers Shift to L2Cache
Ultra-Lightweight Dedicated Memory Footprint
Raycast is a full application launcher running multiple extensions in the background, routinely consuming 250MB to 500MB of RAM. L2Cache is written strictly in native Swift and GRDB SQLite, idling at under 35MB of memory while retaining full-text indexing over 100,000 clips.
Native Screenshot OCR 文本 Indexing
When you screenshot a terminal error, API response, or design asset, L2Cache automatically performs on-device OCR using Apple Vision. You can search for words contained inside screenshots and copy text directly out of images—a feature completely absent in Raycast 剪贴板 History.
Sensitive Radar with Touch ID Key Masking
Raycast stores API keys, database URLs, and passwords in plain text in its history list. L2Cache's Sensitive Radar automatically flags over 60 credential types (Open人工智能, AWS, Stripe), masks them from screen sharing, and requires Touch ID to reveal or copy.
