Syntax

public static class ScyllaEditorClipboard

Remarks

A thin wrapper over UnityEngine.GUIUtility.systemCopyBuffer, which is the correct API but an awkward one to call: it is a property on an IMGUI type, it is easy to mistake for the editor-local copy buffer, and it happily stores null. Naming the operation makes the call sites read like what they do.

Editor-only, main thread only.
