-# Advanced Paste – Python Scripts
-
-Advanced Paste supports user-defined Python scripts that transform clipboard content. Scripts are
-discovered automatically from a configurable folder and appear as actions in the Advanced Paste UI.
-
-## Quick start
-
-1. Open the scripts folder — by default `%LOCALAPPDATA%\Microsoft\PowerToys\AdvancedPaste\Scripts`.
-   You can change this in **Settings → Advanced Paste → Python scripts → Scripts folder**.
-2. Drop a `.py` file into the folder.
-3. Define one `advanced_paste_from_<input>_to_<output>` function (see [Writing a script](#writing-a-script)).
-4. Open the Advanced Paste UI (`Win+Shift+V`) — your script will appear in the action list.
-
-> **Important:** Each `.py` file must define exactly one `advanced_paste_from_<input>_to_<output>`
-> function. Scripts with zero or multiple such functions are ignored.
-
-## Writing a script
-
-You write a single Python function whose **name** declares both what clipboard input it accepts
-and what output type it produces.
-No imports from PowerToys are needed — zero setup, zero dependencies on our side.
-
-### Function naming convention
-
-The function name follows the pattern:
-
-```
-advanced_paste_from_<input>_to_<output>(<param>)
-```
-
-**Input types** (what the function receives):
-
-| Input | Parameter | When it runs |
-|-------|-----------|--------------|
-| `text` | `str` — clipboard text | Clipboard has text |
-| `html` | `str` — clipboard HTML | Clipboard has HTML |
-| `image` | `str` — path to temp image file | Clipboard has an image |
-| `audio` | `str` — path to audio file | Clipboard has an audio file |
-| `video` | `str` — path to video file | Clipboard has a video file |
-| `files` | `list[str]` — file paths | Clipboard has files |
-
-**Output types** (what the function produces — declared via `_to_` suffix):
-
-| Output | Effect |
-|--------|--------|
-| `text` | Sets clipboard to text |
-| `html` | Sets clipboard to HTML |
-| `image` | Sets clipboard to image |
-| `audio` | Sets clipboard to audio file |
-| `video` | Sets clipboard to video file |
-| `file` | Sets clipboard to a file |
-| `files` | Sets clipboard to multiple files |
-
-### Return value
-
-The return value is interpreted according to the declared output type:
-
-| Output type | Expected return value |
-|-------------|---------------------|
-| `text` | `str` (or any value — will be converted via `str()`) |
-| `html` | `str` containing HTML |
-| `image` | `str` or `pathlib.Path` pointing to an image file |
-| `file` | `str` or `pathlib.Path` pointing to a file |
-| `files` | `list` of `str`/`pathlib.Path` file paths |
-
-Returning `None` produces an empty result (no-op).
-
-## Examples
-
-### Minimal — uppercase text
-
-```python
-def advanced_paste_from_text_to_text(text):
-    return text.upper()
-```
-
-That's it. No headers required, no imports from PowerToys.
-
-### With optional metadata
-
-```python
-# @advancedpaste:name   Reverse Text
-# @advancedpaste:desc   Reverses clipboard text character by character
-
-def advanced_paste_from_text_to_text(text):
-    return text[::-1]
-```
-
-### Text to HTML
-
-```python
-# @advancedpaste:name   Markdown Table to HTML
-# @advancedpaste:desc   Convert a markdown table to an HTML table
-
-def advanced_paste_from_text_to_html(text):
-    headers = text.splitlines()[0].split("|")
-    return f"<table><tr>{''.join(f'<th>{h.strip()}</th>' for h in headers if h.strip())}</tr></table>"
-```
-
-### Image to text (OCR)
-
-```python
-# @advancedpaste:requires pytesseract
-
-def advanced_paste_from_image_to_text(image_path):
-    import pytesseract
-    return pytesseract.image_to_string(image_path).strip()
-```
-
-### Save text as file
-
-```python
-import os
-from pathlib import Path
-import tempfile
-
-def advanced_paste_from_text_to_file(text):
-    # Use ADVANCED_PASTE_WORK_DIR for WSL compatibility; falls back to temp dir on Windows.
-    out_dir = os.environ.get("ADVANCED_PASTE_WORK_DIR") or tempfile.gettempdir()
-    out = Path(out_dir) / "clipboard.txt"
-    out.write_text(text, encoding="utf-8")
-    return out
-```
-
-### Image processing (image → image)
-
-```python
-import os
-from PIL import Image
-from pathlib import Path
-import tempfile
-
-def advanced_paste_from_image_to_image(image_path):
-    """Convert image to grayscale."""
-    img = Image.open(image_path).convert("L")
-    out_dir = os.environ.get("ADVANCED_PASTE_WORK_DIR") or tempfile.gettempdir()
-    out = Path(out_dir) / "gray.png"
-    img.save(out)
-    return out
-```
-
-### File listing (files → text)
-
-```python
-import os
-
-def advanced_paste_from_files_to_text(file_paths):
-    lines = []
-    for p in file_paths:
-        size = os.path.getsize(p)
-        lines.append(f"{os.path.basename(p)} ({size} bytes)")
-    return "\n".join(lines)
-```
-
-## Header tags
-
-All header tags are **optional**. Tags are placed in comment lines at the top of the script.
-
-| Tag | Description |
-|-----|-------------|
-| `name` | Display name in the Advanced Paste UI. If omitted, the filename is used. |
-| `desc` | Short description / tooltip. |
-| `disabled` | Presence of this tag disables the script (it won't appear in the UI). |
-| `requires` | Declare Python package dependencies (see [Dependencies](#declaring-dependencies)). |
-
-### Example header
-
-```python
-# @advancedpaste:name   My Formatter
-# @advancedpaste:desc   Formats clipboard text as markdown table
-```
-
-To disable a script without deleting it, add:
-
-```python
-# @advancedpaste:disabled
-```
-
-Remove the line to re-enable.
-
-## Declaring dependencies
-
-Use `requires` to declare Python packages the script needs:
-
-```python
-# @advancedpaste:requires PIL=Pillow
-# @advancedpaste:requires cv2=opencv-python-headless numpy requests
-```
-
-Each token is either:
-
-- **`import_name`** — the pip package is assumed to have the same name (e.g. `requests`).
-- **`import_name=pip_package`** — when the import name differs from the pip package
-  (e.g. `cv2=opencv-python-headless`, `PIL=Pillow`).
-
-### Automatic import detection
-
-Advanced Paste also scans the script body for `import` and `from ... import` statements
-and cross-references them against the Python standard library. Any non-stdlib import
-that is not already installed triggers a prompt to install it automatically.
-
-## Security — script trust
-
-The first time a script is executed (or after it has been modified), Advanced Paste
-shows a confirmation dialog. Upon approval the SHA-256 hash of the script is stored.
-Subsequent runs of the unchanged file skip the dialog.
-
-## Error handling
-
-When a script fails, Advanced Paste extracts the Python traceback from stderr and
-displays a user-friendly summary in the UI:
-
-- **ModuleNotFoundError** — identifies the missing module and suggests installing it.
-- **SyntaxError** — shows the file and line number.
-- **Timeout** — shows the configured timeout value (default 30 s; configurable in Settings).
-- **Other errors** — shows the last line of the traceback as a summary, with the full
-  traceback available in the expandable *Details* section.
-
-## Settings
-
-The Python scripts feature uses a **mode selector** (dropdown) with three options:
-
-| Mode | Description |
-|------|-------------|
-| **Disabled** | Python scripts are not active. |
-| **Windows** | Scripts run using a native Windows Python interpreter. |
-| **WSL** | Scripts run inside Windows Subsystem for Linux. |
-
-Each mode maintains its own independent settings (scripts folder, interpreter path, etc.),
-so switching between Windows and WSL does not lose your previous configuration.
-
-### Windows mode settings
-
-| Setting | Description | Default |
-|---------|-------------|---------|
-| Scripts folder | Folder to scan for `.py` scripts. | `%LOCALAPPDATA%\Microsoft\PowerToys\AdvancedPaste\Scripts` |
-| Python interpreter | Path to the Python executable. Leave blank for auto-detection. | *(auto-detect)* |
-
-### WSL mode settings
-
-| Setting | Description | Default |
-|---------|-------------|---------|
-| Scripts folder | Folder to scan for `.py` scripts (Windows path — auto-translated to `/mnt/...`). | `%LOCALAPPDATA%\Microsoft\PowerToys\AdvancedPaste\Scripts` |
-| WSL distribution | Which WSL distro to use (e.g. `Ubuntu`). Leave blank for the default distribution. | *(default)* |
-
-### Scripts list
-
-The Settings page shows a read-only list of discovered scripts. For each script you can see:
-
-- **Name** — from `@advancedpaste:name` tag, or the filename if not set.
-- **Description** — from `@advancedpaste:desc` tag.
-- **Conversion** — the input → output types detected from the function name (e.g. "text → image").
-
-The list is **not editable** from Settings. To change a script's name, description, enabled state,
-or any other metadata, open the script file directly (click the "Open in editor" button) and edit
-the `# @advancedpaste:...` header tags. After saving, click **Refresh** in Settings to reload.
-
-### WSL mode details
-
-When **WSL** mode is selected:
-
-- Scripts are executed via `wsl.exe bash -l -c "python3 ..."` using the configured distribution.
-- The scripts folder remains on the Windows filesystem; paths are automatically translated
-  to `/mnt/c/...` format for WSL access.
-- Package installation uses `pip3 install` inside the WSL environment.
-- Output files from scripts must be written under `/mnt/` (the Windows-mounted filesystem)
-  so they can be accessed from Windows. The runner sets the `ADVANCED_PASTE_WORK_DIR` environment
-  variable to a temp directory under `/mnt/c/...` — use it instead of `tempfile.gettempdir()`
-  when producing file output for cross-platform compatibility.
-
-> **Tip:** If you have Python installed only in WSL (not on Windows), select WSL mode
-> to use your existing WSL Python environment with all its packages.
-
-## Tips
-
-- Each `.py` file must contain exactly one `advanced_paste_from_<input>_to_<output>` function.
-  If you need to handle multiple input types, create separate script files for each.
-- A `.py` file without any matching function is ignored — use this for helper modules
-  that other scripts can import.
-- Scripts can be tested from the command line:
-  ```
-  echo {"format":["text"],"text":"hello"} | python _runner.py my_script.py
-  ```
-- The script's directory is added to `sys.path` at runtime, so you can import sibling `.py`
-  files as helper modules.

-Advanced Paste – Script Runner (V3 Named Function Interface)
-
-This runner is shipped with PowerToys and is NOT user-editable.
-It loads a user script, discovers the single advanced_paste_from_<input>_to_<output>
-function by name convention, calls it with the current clipboard data, and formats
-the return value into JSON on stdout.
-
-Each script must define exactly one function matching the pattern:
-  def advanced_paste_from_<input>_to_<output>(<param>)
-
-Supported input types:
-  - text, html, image, files
-
-Required output types (declared via _to_ suffix):
-  - text, html, image, file, files
-
-Examples:
-  - advanced_paste_from_text_to_text(text: str)    → output is text
-  - advanced_paste_from_text_to_image(text: str)   → output is image
-  - advanced_paste_from_image_to_text(image_path)  → output is text
-  - advanced_paste_from_files_to_text(file_paths)  → output is text
-
-Protocol:
-  - Input:  JSON on stdin (clipboard data from C#)
-  - Output: JSON on stdout (result for C# to set on clipboard)
-  - Errors: stderr (displayed to user on failure)
