xclip manipulates both the standard and X selection clipboards. It works with the X selection clipboard by default, so you shold be able to clear it with echo "" | xclip > I'm wondering if that clipboard is a part of Konsole itself.

Bitwarden has an option to clear the clipboard after a configurable time, much like KeePassXC. Naturally, if you are really paranoid about security, you will run your own Vaultwarden server to avoid the passwords ever going anywhere out of your control. -- Neil Bothwick Humpty Dumpty DOS - Just a shell of himself.
