A browser extension and a small Windows helper that copy any image straight into your open PureRef canvas. No uploads, no cloud, and nothing ever touches your .pur file.
Everything here works by pasting into PureRef the same way your keyboard would, which is also why it doesn't care which PureRef version you're running.
Copies the image to your clipboard and pastes it into whichever PureRef window has focus, instantly.
We only use copy-paste, the same thing your keyboard does. Your board can't be corrupted by a format we don't control.
Pinterest, Tumblr, and X/Twitter thumbnails are resolved back to their original source before they're copied.
Collects every image visible on the current page in one pass, built for single-view boards, not infinite scroll.
From the Chrome Web Store: one click, no configuration.
A small Windows tray app. No install wizard: it just runs.
The helper pastes into whichever PureRef window currently has focus.
On any image, on any page.
Every release ships with a SHA-256 checksum, a fingerprint of the exact file. If a download doesn't match, don't run it.

No PowerShell? Windows' built-in certutil -hashfile PureDropHelper.exe SHA256 does the same thing. You can also download the .sha256 file directly, or see all releases on GitHub.
The helper relies on Windows-specific APIs for the clipboard and window focus, so a real macOS port means writing that half from scratch, not just recompiling. If that's something you'd help fund, there will be a way to chip in here.
