Use the full date formatter for pattern tokens
When a reviewer enters any supported date pattern beyond these six tokens, the prototype produces a different stem from the plugin it claims to port; for example, {{DATE:MMM}} becomes 08M rather than Aug, and {{DATE:h:mm A}} leaves h and A literal. This makes the Pattern variant misleading for common Moment-format patterns, so it should use the same formatter as paste-image-rename rather than this partial replacement.

Preserve current-name deduplication in Today
When two sample pastes occur within the same second, this branch returns the same filename both times and the UI displays duplicate vault entries. The inspected production path, saveClipboardImageToVault in src/utils/clipboardImageAttachments.ts, instead passes the timestamp name through getAvailablePathForAttachment, which selects a unique path. Because Today is the comparison baseline for the rename experiment, it should model that collision behavior rather than an impossible duplicate path.

Ignore Enter while the rename field is composing
For users entering a name through an IME, the Enter key used to accept a composition arrives with isComposing set, but this handler prevents it and immediately confirms the rename. The modal therefore closes with partial text even though the walkthrough explicitly says the plugin protects pinyin composition, misrepresenting the Confirm interaction; only call confirmRename() when composition is inactive.

Make the scenario command fail on mismatches
The documented verification command only prints the actual stem beside expectStem and never compares them, while the collision sections likewise contain no assertions, so an incorrect port still exits successfully. Since reviewers are directed to this command as the CLI verification seam, convert these expectations into assertions or automated tests that return a nonzero status on regression.

paste-image-rename 1.6.1 date format Moment-compatible formatter {{DATE}}
💡 Result:
In the Paste Image Rename plugin for Obsidian, the {{DATE:$FORMAT}} variable is used to insert a formatted date into your image naming pattern [1][2]. The $FORMAT placeholder must be replaced with a valid Moment.js format string [1][3]. For example, to format the current date as YYYY-MM-DD, you would use {{DATE:YYYY-MM-DD}} in your "Image name pattern" setting [1][4]. Other common examples include {{DATE:YYYYMMDD}} for a compact date format or {{DATE:YYYYMMDDHHmm}} if you need to include the time [1][5]. Note that while this syntax is generally supported, users have reported issues when using multiple {{DATE}} variables in a single pattern [6] or when placing the {{DATE}} variable at the beginning of a pattern (though this was addressed in version 1.5.1) [7]. Top results: [1], [7], [2]

Support the declared date-format contract.
formatMomentish replaces MM inside MMMM and leaves Do unchanged, so {{DATE:MMMM Do YYYY}} produces 0808 Do 2026 instead of the Moment.js result used by paste-image-rename 1.6.1. Use a Moment-compatible formatter, or restrict the Pattern UI and documentation to the supported token set.

The interaction belongs in QuickAdd and Obsidian, not a scratch app. Co-authored-by: Christian Bager Bach Houmann <christian@bagerbach.com>
Add a setting that names clipboard images from the capture destination stem at write time. Unknown destinations keep the timestamp name. Collisions stay with getAvailablePathForAttachment. The CLI command quickadd:save-clipboard-image exercises the same path. Co-authored-by: Christian Bager Bach Houmann <christian@bagerbach.com>
Why
Issue #1703 asks QuickAdd to name pasted images after the note title, like obsidian-paste-image-rename. That plugin watches
vault.on('create')after Obsidian wrotePasted image …. QuickAdd already owns the write, and paste often happens in a prompt before the note exists. Naming atcreateBinarytime from the capture destination stem is the same behavior without a second rename or a confirm modal.This PR is the QuickAdd POC. The throwaway HTML app in
scratch/paste-rename-poc/is gone.Scope
clipboardImageAttachmentFileNameinsrc/utils/clipboardImageAttachments.tspicksMeeting notes.pngwhen the setting is on andsourcePathis known. Empty or illegal stems keepClipboard image YYYY-MM-DD HH.MM.SS.png.namePastedImagesAfterNoteTitle, off by default) under Input.{{CLIPBOARD}}image fallback both go throughsaveClipboardImageToVault.quickadd:save-clipboard-imagewrites a 1x1 PNG through that same function.Does not add a rename modal, pattern tokens, or paste-image-rename's
-Nsuffix. Collisions stay withgetAvailablePathForAttachment.Tradeoffs
Default is off so existing timestamp names stay until someone opts in. The CLI override
nameAfterNoteTitle=trueis how the Obsidian demo proves the path without flipping the vault setting permanently.I did not copy paste-image-rename's create-listener. QuickAdd would still write
Clipboard image …first, and that plugin keys offPasted imageunless Handle all attachments is on. Even then it would rename against the active file, not the capture target.Blast radius
