Page actions

Copy page copies the document as Markdown. The adjacent menu holds optional actions for your assistant, source file, editor and MCP server.

Configure the menu

pageActions is an ordered dictionary. Your keys appear first, in the order written. Omitted defaults follow them. The first visible action becomes the main button. Set an entry to false to remove it.

docusaurus.config.js

themes: [
  ["docusaurus-theme-quiet", {
    pageActions: {
      copyPage: {},
      askAi: {},
      support: {label: "Contact support", url: "https://example.com/support"},
      editPage: {label: "Suggest a change"},
    },
  }],
],

Entry	Shown when
copyPage	Enabled by default; always copies Markdown
askAi	Biel has a project, or you configure an assistant selector
viewSource	You provide a Markdown export URL
editPage	Docusaurus provides an editUrl
mcp	You provide a server URL

Disabling editPage restores Classic's footer edit link. Disable the whole module with pageActions: false.

Markdown

Copy page works without a Markdown export plugin: Quiet converts the rendered article to Markdown, including headings, links, lists, tables and code. Navigation and copy controls are excluded.

If your site generates Markdown files, configure their URL. Copy page prefers that file, falling back to the rendered article if it is unavailable. View source opens the file in a new tab and stays hidden without a configured URL.

pageActions: {
  copyPage: {},
  viewSource: {url: "docs/{docId}.md", exclude: ["api-v1/"]},
},

Relative URLs resolve under the site's base URL. {docId} is the document ID. Check the paths for each locale and version. exclude lists document ID prefixes without exports. See Markdown exports.

To use exports for copying without showing View source, set the URL on copyPage and set viewSource: false.

Custom conversion

For specialized content, override the client-side helper at src/theme/Quiet/CopyPage/index.js. Return a Markdown string:

src/theme/Quiet/CopyPage/index.js

import getPageMarkdown from "@theme-original/Quiet/CopyPage";

export default async function copyPage(context) {
  const markdown = await getPageMarkdown(context);
  return `${markdown}\n\nSource: ${context.url}`;
}

The helper receives {element, url, markdownUrl}. Keep functions in this theme override; the configuration dictionary contains serializable values.

Custom actions

Add a link or text to copy. Copy actions show a temporary check mark. Commands are copied, never executed.

pageActions: {
  copyPage: {},
  reviewPrompt: {
    label: "Copy review prompt",
    copy: "Review this documentation page: {pageUrl}",
  },
  issue: {
    label: "Report a docs issue",
    url: "https://github.com/example/docs/issues/new?body={pageUrl}",
  },
},

In URLs, {pageUrl} becomes the encoded canonical URL. In copied text it stays readable. {sourcePath} is the source file's path relative to the site directory.

Ask AI

Biel is detected from docusaurus-biel, customFields.biel.project or customFields.bielProject. The action opens the existing widget without submitting a question. For another assistant, set its trigger selector:

pageActions: {
  askAi: {label: "Ask support", selector: "#support-assistant-trigger", icon: "message-circle"},
},

The default Ask AI icon is Biel's mark. Set icon to false, a supported name, or {src: "img/assistant.svg"}. Supported names: biel, sparkles, bot, search, message-circle, copy, link, external-link, file and terminal. Custom actions accept the same option.

MCP

No MCP entries appear until you configure a server URL. The default entries copy the URL or a client setup command:

pageActions: {
  mcp: {
    url: "https://docs.example.com/mcp",
    name: "product-docs",
    clients: {
      codex: {},
      claudeCode: {label: "Copy Claude Code command"},
      url: {label: "Copy server URL"},
    },
  },
},

Client keys follow the same ordering rules. Add a client, override a command, or disable an entry:

clients: {
  codex: {command: "codex mcp add {name} --url {url}"},
  claudeCode: false,
  otherClient: {label: "Copy client setup", command: "my-client add {name} {url}"},
},

{name} and {url} become quoted shell arguments. Use a public endpoint or a server that authenticates the client separately. Site configuration is public: keep credentials out of URLs and commands.
