What

Adds a Copy page split button on the page-title row of every doc page, with a dropdown:

Item Behaviour
Copy page Copies the page's raw Markdown to the clipboard (shows Copied for 2s)
View as Markdown Opens <page>.md in a new tab
Open in ChatGPT Opens ChatGPT with a prompt pointing at the page's .md URL
Open in Claude Opens Claude with the same prompt

How

  • docs/.vitepress/theme/components/CopyPageMenu.vue (new) — split button + menu, driven by useData().page.filePath, so it stays correct across client-side navigation. Menu is client-only; the button is SSR'd. Keyboard: Enter/Space opens and focuses the first item, arrow keys cycle, Escape closes and returns focus; click-outside closes.
  • docs/.vitepress/theme/components/copy-page-icons.ts (new) — inline SVG glyphs.
  • docs/.vitepress/theme/Layout.vue — mounts the component in the doc-before slot.
  • docs/.vitepress/theme/style.css — placement: absolutely positioned on the H1 row at ≥768px (the H1 reserves room so long titles wrap instead of colliding); an in-flow, right-aligned block above the title on smaller screens. The ≥1280 3-column top offset moves from .main to .content so the slot shares the H1's origin (no visible change elsewhere).
  • docs/index.mdcopyPage: false (home is a hub page, not content to copy). Any page can opt out the same way.

No config, plugin, or server changes: buildEnd() already emits every page's .md next to its HTML and production serves it as text/markdown, which is what the menu uses. Independent of #467 (that PR handles Accept: text/markdown negotiation on clean URLs; this one always uses explicit .md URLs).

Verified

  • pnpm build clean; SSR HTML contains the button, no menu; nothing on 404; .md files + llms.txt still emitted; pnpm check:format passes.
  • Browser (light + dark, 1440 / 1100 / 900 / 500px): copy writes the full raw Markdown; menu items and hrefs correct; keyboard + click-outside + Escape; SPA navigation updates the path and closes the menu; failed fetch shows Copy failed and resets.

Screenshot check

Look at /ai/mcp-server (3-column) and /pages/edit-ms-office-files (long title with badge) on the preview.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features

    • Added a Copy Page menu to documentation pages.
    • Copy or view page content in Markdown.
    • Added quick links for opening content in ChatGPT or Claude.
    • Added keyboard navigation, accessibility support, status feedback, and mobile-friendly behavior.
  • Style

    • Improved document spacing and responsive positioning for the Copy Page control.
  • Configuration

    • Disabled the Copy Page menu on the documentation homepage.

Adds a split button on the page-title row of every doc page:

- Copy page: copies the page's raw Markdown to the clipboard
- View as Markdown: opens the page's .md in a new tab
- Open in ChatGPT / Open in Claude: hands the .md URL to the AI tool

Uses the per-page .md files buildEnd() already emits, so no config or
server changes. Pages can opt out with copyPage: false (home page does).

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The documentation theme adds a Copy Page menu with Markdown copying, Markdown viewing, ChatGPT and Claude links, responsive layout behavior, accessibility handling, and page-level opt-out support.

Changes

Copy Page documentation feature

Layer / File(s) Summary
Copy Page menu behavior and assets
docs/.vitepress/theme/components/CopyPageMenu.vue, docs/.vitepress/theme/components/copy-page-icons.ts
The new component loads page Markdown, supports copy and view actions, provides ChatGPT and Claude links, manages menu state and keyboard interactions, and includes responsive, dark-mode, reduced-motion, and print styles. SVG icon constants support the menu actions.
Theme integration and document layout
docs/.vitepress/theme/Layout.vue, docs/.vitepress/theme/style.css, docs/index.md
The layout renders the menu in doc-before without duplicate slot forwarding. CSS positions the control for mobile and desktop layouts. The index page disables the control with copyPage: false.

Estimated code review effort: 4 (Complex) | ~45 minutes

Merge Risk: ⚪ Minimal · up to 5ccab

This PR adds a localized copy/menu control to documentation pages. A trivial keyboard-focus edge case remains where Tab can leave the menu open, but it is bounded accessibility polish; no actionable merge-blocking risk remains after normal checks and review.

189-200: 📐 Maintainability & Code Quality | 🔵 Trivial | 💤 Low value

Close the menu when focus leaves it with Tab.

onMenuKeydown handles ArrowDown and ArrowUp. Escape and outside pointerdown also close the menu. Tab moves focus out of the menu but leaves it open, so the open menu floats over the page while focus is elsewhere. Add Tab handling or a focusout check on the root element.

Open the Markdown view in the same tab, or state the new-tab behavior for assistive technology.

"View as Markdown" points to a same-origin document but uses target="_blank". The other two entries are external assistant links, so a new tab is expected there. For the internal Markdown link, a new tab is a surprise. If you keep target="_blank", the screen reader announcement does not state it.

♻️ Option: keep the Markdown view in the current tab
       :href="link.href"
-      target="_blank"
-      rel="noopener noreferrer"
+      :target="link.external ? '_blank' : undefined"
+      :rel="link.external ? 'noopener noreferrer' : undefined"
       `@click`="close()"

Add external: false to the Markdown entry and external: true to the ChatGPT and Claude entries in links.
