Combobox
Chip Overflow
Multi-select with collapsing chips: beyond the limit, selected values hide behind a "+N" button that expands and collapses the full row itself.
React + Tailwind, shadcn-compatible: press “Copy for AI” and your Cursor or Claude Code agent installs it with the shadcn CLI.
What you can change
- the list content through options and the starting set through defaultSelected
- the collapse threshold through visibleChips
- the empty-result text through emptyLabel
A link for your AI agent: preview, code and instructions.

FAQ
- How do I add Chip Overflow with Cursor or Claude Code?
- Press “Copy for AI” on this page and paste it into your agent's chat. The instruction contains the shadcn CLI install command, the dependencies and what to keep, so the agent installs this exact component instead of recreating a lookalike.
- What does Chip Overflow depend on?
- No npm packages beyond React and Tailwind CSS.
- What can I change in Chip Overflow?
- Adapt: the list content through options and the starting set through defaultSelected; the collapse threshold through visibleChips; the empty-result text through emptyLabel. Keep as installed: the local --vibeui-combobox-024-* palette — do not swap it for your theme tokens; the "+N" button with aria-expanded instead of a popover: expansion happens in the same field, with no new layer on top; the absence of an upper selection limit — only the display collapses, not the selection itself; that is what sets this apart from a capped multi-select.
- Is Chip Overflow free?
- Yes. The preview is open without an account; with a free account you can copy up to 20 components a month.

Technical notes
The component is self-contained: one file, no dependencies, its own --vibeui-combobox-024-* palette. Client component: useState holds the array of selected items, the expanded flag and the query. The shown chips are computed as selected.slice(0, visibleChips) while the expanded flag is not set; the overflow — Math.max(0, selected.length - visibleChips) — is printed into a "+N" button with aria-expanded, which toggles the flag and turns into a "Collapse" button. Unlike a capped multi-select there is no upper bound on how much can be selected here — only the display collapses, not the selection itself. The list is a role="listbox" with aria-multiselectable, and the rows carry a checkbox indicator data-part="box".
