DATA

local only
// No local file. Clyde detects a URL pattern and opens it:

// input:  "github.com/ColorfulDots/clyde"
// action: NSWorkspace.shared.open(URL("https://github.com/ColorfulDots/clyde"))

// input:  "http://localhost:3000"
// action: NSWorkspace.shared.open(URL("http://localhost:3000"))

No storage. Clyde detects the URL and opens it via NSWorkspace. Nothing is logged or sent anywhere.
