New clone method for PS Desktop?

Hi! Could you create a new Clone method in Photoshop for Desktop, please? With synchronised x and y between source image(s) and target, you ‘paint’ with the cursor in the source, the pixels are replicated into the destination.

Why? I have many generations of an image from Stable Diffusion, none of them are perfect. But if I could easily clone bits from each, I could make a good one. I don’t want to use layers and masks, I want to be able see everything at once.

Not saying you cant ask for this feature, just wanted some explanation as to why this would be uniquely different than existing solutions already in place.

The images in question are all exactly the same size. Any misalignment
within them is my problem to deal with. I'd still like the feature, if
possible.

There is no way to automate x and y coordinates with each new image unless every image had the same image size to start. Even then, your source material may not always align with the same x and y coordinates on the destination image.

I can copy from source to destination, but I need to spend time very
carefully selecting the from and to locations. I'd like automatic
synchronisation of x and y in both images. Can that be done?

Hi @Hanna3159703921hb you already can use clone stamp to copy from one source image to another. What would be the enhancement from current? You can follow your source icon while painting on the destination.
