What it does
Clipboard history that stays on your machine, with receipts for everything.
Global search & Quick Paste
Find any clip fast across history and safes, and paste it back in one step with Quick Paste.
Command Center
Trigger actions from a single hotkey-driven launcher. Phase 1 ships Hotkey Actions; expansions wait for deliberate scope decisions.
Screenshots & images
Images live alongside text clips, so visual context is never lost between pastes.
Exports & proof packs
Bundle clips into exports and proof-pack workflows with stamped receipts you can inspect later.
Local-first storage
No cloud account, no telemetry. Your clipboard vault lives on your machine in durable files you own.
Mobile companion
An opt-in LAN-only Mobile Bridge pairs Cache Vault Desktop with a production-signed Android companion. No cloud relay — your clips stay on the local network.
Why Cache Vault
Differentiators, not hype.
Receipts, not just history
Every clip and export can carry a stamped receipt — proof of what was captured and when.
User-owned workflows
Durable local files mean your vault is not hostage to a SaaS shutdown or a pricing change.
Honest claims
What Cache Vault does is tied to tested behavior and visible release proof, not marketing language.
Founder license gate
Advanced features are unlocked offline with an Ed25519 Founder license. No online account or subscription is required for the usable base application.

The Android APK hash was published alongside the v0.2.0 release. That companion build was not reissued alongside v0.2.2, and its release page is not currently publicly browsable — the hash is not republished here to avoid an unverifiable claim.
Release evidence
- Download the current release (v0.2.2)
- Published SHA256SUMS.txt (Windows ZIP)
- Test suite: Bounded known issue — not a clean regression — see disclosure below
- Historical release: v0.2.0 (superseded; included the production-signed Android companion). Its GitHub release page is not currently publicly browsable, so no link is given here rather than leaving a dead one.
Public release v0.2.2 (Windows), superseding v0.2.0. Fixes profile-isolation: isolated --profile-dir launches now fail closed instead of touching the real vault, and the single-instance mutex is scoped per profile. This build is unsigned (no Authenticode signature). Not a clean full regression pass and not zero known failures: four pre-existing UI-timing tests in tests/test_search_during_batch_render.py intermittently exceed their timing assertion under load; these reproduce identically against the pre-v0.2.2 source and are unrelated to this release's changes. The exact total regression pass count was not captured at release time. The Android companion remains the previously published v0.2.0 APK; it was not rebuilt for this release. Verify the SHA-256 before installing.
Current limitations & release state
What is true right now, including what is not yet released.
Current public release
The public release is v0.2.2. v0.2.0 remains available as a historical reference for the Android companion build; it is not the current governing version.
Not a clean regression pass
v0.2.2 discloses four pre-existing UI-timing test failures (search/render regression suite) that reproduce identically against the pre-v0.2.2 source and are unrelated to this release's changes. This is not a claim of zero known failures, and the exact total regression pass count was not captured at release time.
Unsigned build
The v0.2.2 Windows installer has no Authenticode signature. Verify the published SHA-256 before running it.
Command Center scope is frozen
Command Center is Phase 1 only (Hotkey Actions) as of v0.2.2. Later phases such as Text Expansions and Run Log UI are not claimed until they ship.
Download / Founder
Downloads and Founder options are hosted on the Cache Vault release site.
The Windows installer is inside the ZIP. Verify the SHA-256 before installing. The Android companion was last published at v0.2.0; that release page is not currently publicly browsable.
