Description
When copying a password using the "Generate Random Password" extension on Raycast beta, the password is successfully copied and can be pasted, but it does not appear in maccy's clipboard history. The same action on Raycast stable is logged correctly in maccy.
Steps To Reproduce
Steps to Reproduce:
- Install maccy (open source clipboard manager)
- Use "Generate Random Password" extension to copy a password
- Paste somewhere to confirm it copied — it works
- Check maccy clipboard history — entry is missing
Current Behaviour
Actual Behavior: Password is copyable/pasteable but maccy does not record the event.
Expected Behaviour
Expected Behavior: Copy event is logged in Clippy history as it was on Raycast stable.
