Even it had found links, finding a link and defining HTTPS, HTTP, and SSL is not helpful.

Maybe the comment wasn’t synchronized with your instance yet, and I’m not sure if the bot identified a link like this or a link like https://google.com/, where in the markdown description they added the HTTPS explicitly.

And I don’t know if the bot suffers from the Scunthorpe problem, i.e. dumb bot.

But they are in this thread, someone directly mentioned Git, both HTTP and HTTPS are mentioned directly in links description, and finally SSL is mentioned by the bot itself when explaining HTTPS.

I use clips on Elementary OS, I don’t know how well it works with other distros.

Probably due to wildcard expansion by the shell. Use dot (.) instead of asterisk (*).
