//! `runex paste-clipboard` — read the system clipboard and write the
//! text to stdout.
//!
//! Hidden subcommand. The only intended caller is the nu Ctrl+V
//! binding generated by `app::shell_export` when
//! `[keybind.paste_intercept]` is set. The binding pipes our stdout
//! into `commandline edit --insert`, which means a clipboard paste
//! lands in the buffer **without** going through the per-keystroke
//! abbreviation trigger — sidestepping the paste-mid-trigger
//! limitation documented in `domain/templates/nu.nu`.
//!
//! Empty clipboard / no text format on the clipboard returns an
//! empty stdout and exit 0; the nu binding's `is-empty` check then
//! no-ops the insert. Provider failures (no xclip / wl-paste / etc.)
//! print a hint to stderr and exit 1, so the user sees what to
//! install rather than getting a silent no-op.
