Sounds like this script https://github.com/Biont/sway-launcher-desktop (it doesn't depend on sway anymore). I've been using it for ages and really like it.

The Largest Money-Printing Element Ever Made
Pretty sure it was Nicholas Jitkoff[1] and his team. He had done Quicksilver[2] a few years back which popularized this single input interface for osx desktop.

Keyboard tricks from a macOS app dev
I've used Quicksilver for clipboard history historically. There is a currently a bug that I've been meaning to delve into: https://github.com/quicksilver/Quicksilver/issues/2913 but still generally usable. Particularly handy combined with adding simple AppleScript or JXA actions to manipulate the content (I have several simple ones for example to run a regex, to clean extraneous content around a number, a phone number, strip whitespace, indent 4 spaces for pasting into a markdown codeblock on SO, etc etc).
The Shelf plug-in also very handy along similar lines.

Resolving the Great Undo-Redo Quandary
For a browsable clipboard history on macOS, I recommend LaunchBar (https://www.obdev.at/products/launchbar/; docs at https://www.obdev.at/resources/launchbar/help/ClipboardHisto...). I used to use the Clipboard Plugin of the free and open source app Quicksilver (https://qsapp.com/), which worked fine but was slightly less streamlined. Some people prefer Alfred (https://www.alfredapp.com/help/features/clipboard/).

Shortcat – Manipulate macOS masterfully, minus the mouse
This is great. Reminds me of QuickSilver[1]. I'm evaluating HomeRow[2] for a VIM driving the Mac OS, will try this as well.
I love how:
a. accessibility features are making the OS more accessible for everyone through automation
b. good the accessibility implementation is on the Mac that most applications are inherently compatible with solutions like this.
