With this command line all three commands run in the shell inside tmux. There is no way you can run a command inside tmux and have it inject into the shell outside tmux.
The only thing you could do would be run tmux in a loop outside like while :; do tmux attach || break tmux showb|pbcopy done But that would obviously not let you detach.
