Add support for pasting with Ctrl+V #2

Description

Feature Request

Add support for pasting content into Claude Code using Ctrl+V (or Cmd+V on macOS).

Context

The container includes xclip which enables clipboard support via OSC 52, but this functionality is not yet documented or fully integrated into the workflow.

Expected Behavior

Users should be able to:

  • Copy an image or text in their terminal (Ghostty, etc.)
  • Press Ctrl+V in Claude Code to paste directly
  • Have images and text available in the Claude Code session

Implementation Notes

  • Ghostty supports OSC 52 natively
  • xclip is already installed in the container
  • Need to document the feature in README
  • Verify it works with both Docker and Podman containers

Related

This would improve the developer experience when working with Claude Code in the sandbox, especially for image pasting and text snippets.
