Summary

Clipboard Permission Manager is a browser extension which allows users to grant JavaScript access to the clipboard on a per-page basis. It should work with any page that uses the W3C Clipboard API.

Chrome restricts clipboard access to very specific cases, each of which requires user interaction, and does not provide a mechanism for manually granting access such that user interaction is not required going forward.

This extension is intended to provide such a mechanism, and it is our hope that mainstream browsers will provide such a mechanism on their own in the future, rendering this extension unnecessary.

This extension is open source and licensed under the MIT license. Its source code can be found on GitHub:

User reviews
It just doesn't work. The extension button shows up as a "?" icon (as opposed to what the screenshot shows, which is a green checkmark indicating that clipboard acces is allowed, and I presume some red sign of some sort when not), and the menu doesn't contain any option to allow/disallow clipboard access for the current website, nor are there any options anywhere to allow it globally or on a per-site basis. It just does nothing, it's obviously broken (but it doesn't show any error allowing you to diagnose the issue either). Basically garbage, I wasted my time trying it out.
