Daemon?  Why not just run pass and send things on STDIN?  (STDIN cannot be 
read by others inspecting the process from outside, unlike ENVVARS and 
cmdline args).

Or, you know, no secret information is sent to pass anyway, so just invoke 
it with the cmdline args as normal and have it do the clipboard thing it 
already does (or even the STDOUT thing, since that can't be intercepted).

Seems like no changes to pass should be necessary.

Or is the problem that chrome can't run processes?
