AI Actions Menu
A dropdown on every page that lets readers copy Markdown, open pages in ChatGPT/Claude/Perplexity, or install your MCP server in one click.
Every page on your Jamdesk site includes an AI Actions menu — a small dropdown above the title that gives readers quick access to AI tools. Copy the page as Markdown, open it in ChatGPT, install your MCP server in Cursor. No configuration needed.
Built-in Options
The menu ships with eight options, all enabled by default:
| Option | Key | What it does |
|---|---|---|
| Copy page | copy | Fetches the raw Markdown and copies it to the clipboard |
| View as Markdown | view | Opens the .md file in a new tab |
| Open in ChatGPT | chatgpt | Opens ChatGPT with a prompt to read the current page |
| Open in Claude | claude | Opens Claude with the same prompt |
| Open in Perplexity | perplexity | Opens Perplexity with the same prompt |
| Copy MCP config | mcp | Copies the JSON config for your site's MCP server |
| Add to Cursor | cursor | Deep-links to install the MCP server in Cursor |
| Add to VS Code | vscode | Deep-links to install the MCP server in VS Code |
Gemini is also available as gemini but isn't included in the defaults because it doesn't support URL prompt pre-filling reliably. Add it explicitly if your readers use it.
When copy is in the options list, it becomes the primary button. The rest appear in a dropdown triggered by a chevron. Without copy, the whole thing collapses into a single "AI Actions" dropdown.
Configuration
The menu works out of the box. You only need to touch docs.json if you want to customize which options appear or turn it off entirely.

}Add custom options
You can mix built-in options with your own. Custom options open a URL in a new tab.
{
"contextual": {
"options": [
"copy",
"claude",
{
"title": "Ask on Discord",
"description": "Get help from the community",
"icon": "discord",
"href": "https://discord.gg/your-server"
}
]
}
}Custom options support an optional icon field — any Font Awesome icon name works, including brand icons like discord or slack. Without an icon, a link icon is shown.
Custom options also support query parameters:
{
"contextual": {
"options": [
"copy",
{
"title": "Search in Notion",
"description": "Find related internal docs",
"href": {
"base": "https://notion.so/search",
"query": [
{ "key": "q", "value": "docs" }
]
}
}
]
}
}How It Works
The menu runs entirely client-side. URLs update on every page navigation, so the "Open in Claude" link always points to whichever page you're looking at — even after navigating through the sidebar without a full page reload.
The AI service links include the page's .md URL in the prompt. ChatGPT, Claude, and Perplexity can all fetch URLs, so they'll read your documentation directly from the link.
MCP options use the /_mcp endpoint that every Jamdesk site exposes. "Copy MCP config" gives your readers the JSON they need for any MCP client. "Add to Cursor" and "Add to VS Code" are one-click deep links that open the editor's install flow directly. See MCP Server for details on what AI tools can do with it.
