Selection Menu

A context menu for selected text: it reads the selection at the moment of the call and shows it in the header, so "translate" always has a subject.

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 paragraph content through text
  • the empty-state caption through emptyHint
  • the command list through actions, and the sectionLabel, hint, menuLabel, quoteText and doneText captions — Russian by default

A link for your AI agent: preview, code and instructions.

FAQ

How do I add Selection Menu 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 Selection Menu depend on?
No npm packages beyond React and Tailwind CSS.
What can I change in Selection Menu?
Adapt: the paragraph content through text; the empty-state caption through emptyHint; the command list through actions, and the sectionLabel, hint, menuLabel, quoteText and doneText captions — Russian by default. Keep as installed: the local --vibeui-contextmenu-005-* palette: the component must look the same in any project; reading the selection inside the handler: it does not exist during render and is gone once the menu closes; the snippet in the menu header — "translate" without something to translate is meaningless.
Is Selection Menu free?
Yes. The preview is open without an account; with a free account you can copy up to 20 components a month.

Technical notes

One file, zero dependencies, the --vibeui-contextmenu-005-* palette. Client component: useState holds the selection and the cursor coordinates. The selection text is taken from window.getSelection() inside the call handler — during render it does not exist yet, and once the menu closes it has already been cleared. The menu is an HTML popover at the cursor through the x/y variables, with a duplicate button for the keyboard and the phone. While nothing is selected the entries are marked aria-disabled and the header states the reason. The selection colour is set by a ::selection rule on the paragraph itself, so that it matches the component's accent. The theme comes from the surrounding color-scheme through light-dark(), and the card has no background of its own by default.
