Context menu with icons for common actions.
For AI Agents
Hand your agent this brief or the ReUI MCP, not a screenshot. Free to install.
Best for: Clipboard commands, Copy, Cut and Paste, each with a leading icon, and a destructive Delete below a divider
When to use
- Right click actions on a file, row or canvas area, such as copy, paste, share and delete
- Toggles and single choice settings changed from a right click, such as visible bars or the theme
- Long command lists split into headed sections, key hints or a nested flyout of extra tools
When not to use
- Record actions such as edit, share and archive rather than clipboard commands: use the Context Menu Destructive Actions example
- Actions that must stay discoverable, opened from a visible button like a row's more icon: use the Dropdown Menu component
- A persistent bar of File, Edit and View lists across the top of an app window: use the Menubar component
- Site links in a header bar whose panels open on hover or click: use the Navigation Menu component
