show

stash show <shortname> [-v/--verbose] [-c/--copy] [--clear-after <SECONDS>]

Prints the item’s content. If the item has a title it is printed as a header line above the content. If the item has tags they are shown on a tags: line after the content. Add --verbose / -v to show all metadata (type, title, browser preference, private flag, timestamps, and tags) in a header block.

Add --copy / -c to copy the content to the clipboard instead of printing it (requires pbcopy on macOS, wl-copy on Wayland, xclip or xsel on X11, or clip.exe on Windows/WSL).

Pass --clear-after <SECONDS> to automatically clear the clipboard after the given number of seconds. This overrides clipboard_clear_seconds in stash.toml for a single invocation:

stash show mypassword --copy                  # copy; no automatic clear
stash show mypassword --copy --clear-after 30  # copy; clear after 30 s

Clear timeout resolution order: --clear-after flag > clipboard_clear_seconds in stash.toml > 0 (disabled).

stash show gh                   # prints title (if set) then content
stash show gh --verbose         # content + metadata (type, title, timestamps, tags)
stash show gh --copy            # copy content to clipboard (no terminal output)
