I already have set a hotkey to "Copy color's HEX code". When pressing Ctrl+Shift+C it copies the hex code of the primary color to clipboard, so that I can paste it into another application. This is essential as a web developer. (For those interested: Edit > Keyboard Shortcuts > Color > Copy Color's Hex Code)

However, I would like the inverse. I have copied a color from my code or another website, such as Twitter's brand color: 1da1f2.

I would like to press Ctrl+Shift+V to "paste" the color into my primary color, instead of having to open the color dialog, pasting it there, and pressing OK.

Is this possible?

You should try Actions I think that will solve your problem. record the action of going to the color dialog and paste the value hit okay and stop recording. Assign a key on the keyboard for the action that you just recorded. and the next time you copy a color code just hit that key on the keyboard and it will play that action for you. that should fix your problem.
