About ClipZilla
ClipZilla opens the image on your clipboard in a small editor. You can add rectangles, arrows, freehand strokes and text, undo and redo, and delete a selected mark. Enter or Done copies the annotated picture back to the clipboard, ready to paste into a chat, bug report or document. The clipzilla://annotate URL opens the editor directly. It is for people who mark up screenshots often and want a short step between copying and pasting.
Requires macOS 13 or later. The v0.2.0 DMG is ad-hoc signed and not notarized, so the first launch has to be allowed under System Settings > Privacy & Security.
