I know you have a scripting API and also a feature to blacklist applications.
But do you support some (default?) API that provides a way for password managers to clear the clipboard after some timeout, as mentioned in
keepassxreboot/keepassxc#9842
?

There is Clear Clipboard After Interval, but it won't work with password managers, because CopyQ in the recent versions completely ignores clipboard content with passwords/secrets.

I will try to modify CopyQ so it lets you react on data from password managers.

Allows running scripts and automatic commands even if clipboard data was
copied from a clipboard manager or an internal data format
(`application/x-copyq-*`) changed.

Oh, BTW, I did not release the fix for in CopyQ yet. But if you are on Windows, you can use development build: https://ci.appveyor.com/project/hluk/copyq/builds/50193991/artifacts

I have no idea where to start to get the clipboard manager either ignore passwords from KeepassXC or delete them after a while. It seems that there is some standard to inform the clipboard manager about sensitive passwords.
