Description
Summary
Content shown by command-menu commands (e.g. /help, /models) can't be copied. It would be very useful to select and copy text out of the command menu so it can be pasted elsewhere.
Motivation
A concrete case: when I run /models, I want to copy a model name to use as a reference — for example when asking the system to spawn an agent using a specific model. Today I have to retype the model ID by hand, which is error-prone (a wrong/stale ID currently fails with 404 no provider is configured).
Proposed behavior
- Allow selecting and copying text rendered by command-menu commands like
/helpand/models. - Ideally support copying an individual item (e.g. a single model name/ID) as well as the full block.
Notes
Applies to the mecatui command menu / slash-command output rendering.
