About the app
Meet Scrivener
Scrivener is a writing workspace for planning, drafting, and organizing long-form projects such as books, papers, and scripts.
Included actions
Choose only what you need
This integration includes 3 useful actions. Add only the ones that fit your workflow—nothing is grouped or enabled automatically.
| Action | Outcome |
|---|---|
| New Clipping | Create a new clipping in the open Scrivener project. |
| Append to Text | Add the selection to the end of the current document. |
| Append to Notes | Add the selection to the current document’s notes. |
Workflow
How it works
- Select the text you want to use.
- Choose your Scrivener action from ActionClip.
- ActionClip sends the selection to Scrivener and opens the app for you.
| Connection | macOS Services |
|---|---|
| Result | Opens or updates Scrivener |
| Configuration | Every action is enabled separately |
| Internet | Not required by ActionClip |
Before you add it
Requirements and privacy
- Before you start: Install Scrivener 2 or 3, open a project, and enable the macOS Service for the action you want to use.
- Your selected text: ActionClip sends the selection directly to Scrivener on your Mac. Scrivener controls any syncing that happens afterward.
Nothing is sent until you click the action. ActionClip never runs this integration quietly in the background.
