ShowLine Color
You need the colour. You already closed the window.
A picker that copies the value and disappears leaves you alt-tabbing back to find what you just sampled.

Screenshots
Every image below is rendered by the app itself — no mockup, no retouching.
A picker is a buffer. This is a shelf.
The value goes to the clipboard, and the next copy overwrites it. A card on the line stays: twenty-four of them, newest first, and only the colour values are stored — never a picture of your screen.

HEX, RGB and HSL are shown together, on a 15 × 15 pixel grid, magnified 10×.
Keep
The card hangs on the line. Click it to copy again, or drag it into your stylesheet.

Questions
Does it read my screen?
Only the pixels under the loupe, and only while the picker is open. Nothing is saved or sent anywhere.
Where are the colour cards kept?
In a local file on your PC — up to 24 values, newest first. No sync, no account.
Which formats can I copy?
HEX, RGB and HSL. You can choose uppercase hex and whether the value starts with #.
Can I paste a value into another app?
Yes. Drag a card out of the line and drop it into any text field that accepts text.
