+The contextual menu provides quick access to AI-optimized content and direct integrations with popular AI tools. When users select the contextual menu on any page, they can copy content as context for AI tools or open conversations in ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, or a custom tool of your choice with your documentation already loaded as context.
+
+## Menu options
+
+- **Copy page**: Copies the current page as Markdown for pasting as context into AI tools.
+- **View as Markdown**: Opens the current page as Markdown.
+- **Open in ChatGPT**: Creates a ChatGPT conversation with the current page as context.
+- **Open in Claude**: Creates a Claude conversation with the current page as context.
+- **Open in Perplexity**: Creates a Perplexity conversation with the current page as context.
+- **[Your custom options](#adding-custom-options)**: Add your own options to the menu.

+</Frame>
+
+## Enabling the contextual menu
+
+Add the `contextual` field to your `docs.json` file and specify which options you want to include.
+
+```json
+{
+ "contextual": {
+   "options": [
+     "copy",
+     "view",
+     "chatgpt",
+     "claude",
+     "perplexity"
+   ]
+ }
+}
+```
+
+## Adding custom options
+
+Create custom options in the contextual menu by adding an object to the `options` array. Each custom option requires these properties:
+
+<ResponseField name="title" type="string" required>
+  The title of the option.
+</ResponseField>
+
+<ResponseField name="description" type="string" required>
+  The description of the option. Displayed beneath the title when the contextual menu is expanded.
+</ResponseField>
+
+<ResponseField name="icon" type="string" required>
+  The icon of the option. Accepts any icon from the [Icons](/components/icons) collection.
+</ResponseField>
+
+<ResponseField name="href" type="string | object" required>
+  The href of the option. Use a string for simple links or an object for dynamic links with query parameters.
+
+  <Expandable title="href object">
+    <ResponseField name="base" type="string" required>
+      The base URL for the option.
+    </ResponseField>
+
+    <ResponseField name="query" type="object" required>
+      The query parameters for the option.
+
+      <Expandable title="query object">
+        <ResponseField name="key" type="string" required>
+          The query parameter key.
+        </ResponseField>
+
+        <ResponseField name="value" type="string" required>
+          The query parameter value. Use `$page` to insert the current page content in Markdown or `$path` to insert the current page path.
+        </ResponseField>
+      </Expandable>
+    </ResponseField>
+  </Expandable>
+</ResponseField>
+
+Example custom option:
+
+```json {8-21}
+"contextual": {
+  "options": [
+    "copy",
+    "view",
+    "chatgpt",
+    "claude",

+
+The [llms.txt file](https://llmstxt.org) is an industry standard that helps LLMs index content more efficiently, similar to how a sitemap helps search engines.
+
+Mintlify automatically hosts an `llms.txt` file at the root of your project that lists all available pages in your documentation. AI tools can use this file to understand your documentation structure and find relevant content to user prompts.
+
+View your `llms.txt` by appending `/llms.txt` to your documentation site's URL.
+
+<PreviewButton href="https://mintlify.com/docs/llms.txt">Open the llms.txt for this site</PreviewButton>
+
+Your site's `llms.txt` is always up to date and requires zero maintenance.
+
+## llms.txt structure
+
+An `llms.txt` file is a plain Markdown file that contains:
+
+- **Site title** as an H1 heading. This is the only required section of an `llms.txt`.
+- **Structured content sections** with descriptive links to key pages.
+
+```mdx Example llms.txt
+# Example product docs
+
+## Guides
+- [Getting started](https://example.com/docs/start): Intro guide
+- [Install](https://example.com/docs/install): Setup steps
+
+## Reference
+- [API](https://example.com/docs/api): Endpoint list and usage
+```
+
+This structured approach allows LLMs to quickly process your documentation hierarchy and locate relevant content for user queries, improving the accuracy and speed of AI-assisted documentation searches.
+
+## llms-full.txt
+
+The `llms-full.txt` file combines your entire documentation site into a single file as context for AI tools and is indexed by LLM traffic. Users can paste a single URL as context for AI tools for more relevant and accurate responses.
+
+Mintlify automatically hosts an `llms-full.txt` file at the root of your project. View your `llms-full.txt` by appending `/llms-full.txt` to your documentation site's URL.
+
+<PreviewButton href="https://mintlify.com/docs/llms-full.txt">Open the llms-full.txt for this site</PreviewButton>
+
+Your site's `llms-full.txt` is always up to date and requires zero maintenance.

+Markdown provides structured text that AI tools can process more efficiently than HTML, which results in better response accuracy, faster processing times, and lower token usage.

 ## About the assistant
 
 The assistant answers questions about your documentation through natural language queries. It is embedded directly in your documentation site, providing users with immediate access to contextual help.
 
 The assistant uses agentic RAG (retrieval-augmented generation) with tool calling powered by Claude Sonnet 4. When users ask questions, the assistant:
 
 * **Searches and retrieves** relevant content from your documentation to provide accurate answers.
 * **Cites sources** and provides navigable links to take users directly to referenced pages.
