Nothing too crazy. I have a keyboard shortcut that grabs the URL from chrome, then passes it off to a script that interfaces with pass [0] to have a rudimentary, but secure and cross platform password manager.

Try this:

    tell application "Firefox"
       activate
               
       set pb to the clipboard
               
       tell application "System Events"
           keystroke "l" using command down
           keystroke "c" using command down
       end tell
               
       set page_url to the clipboard

       set the clipboard to pb
    end tell

It’s kind of hacked together and I haven’t tested it with rigor but until now it did its job. If you use it, please let me know if you could enhance it or whether it breaks for certain pasteboard contents.

Thanks, that worked well. I needed to add a pause between cmd-l and cmd-c though.
