Context menu

Provide native-style context menus for sessions, workspaces, text, links, and inputs.

dsh-tauri-rightclick provides context menus inside the desktop’s embedded Harness UI, using Harness session and workspace services and menu components. It is not an operating-system-wide context menu.

Sessions

Workspaces

Inputs

Where to right-click

Target	Actions
Existing session row	Rename, fork, archive, copy the directory or session ID, and open the directory. Pin / unpin appears when the core provides it.
Workspace row	Create a session, rename the display label, open the directory, copy its path, archive sessions in bulk, or remove the workspace registration.
Ungrouped heading	Archive ungrouped sessions in bulk, excluding blank and already archived sessions.
Text, links, inputs	Copy or select all text, open or copy links, and undo, redo, cut, copy, or paste in inputs.
Refresh menu item	Reloads the current Harness page without restarting the local Harness service.

Blank new sessions do not get a session menu. Unsupported targets keep the default menu. Session actions prefer the official row menu or public services. Without pinSession / unpinSession, the plugin omits pinning rather than simulating pinned state.

Archiving is not permanent deletion

Action	What is preserved
Archive one or more sessions	Keeps session records, which can be restored in Archive Management.
Delete workspace	Removes only the workspace registration; keeps the project folder and session records.
Permanently delete sessions	Not performed by archive or workspace-removal actions here. Confirm it separately in Archive Management.

Bulk archiving and workspace deletion show a confirmation first. Renaming a workspace changes its display label, not the directory on disk.

Host access and compatibility boundaries

• Opening a directory uses /api/desktop/dsh-tauri-rightclick/open/path and the system file manager on the machine running the Harness host.
• Opening an external link uses /api/desktop/dsh-tauri-rightclick/open/url and that machine’s default browser. Only http / https URLs are accepted, not arbitrary URL schemes.
• Loading the Web UI in another wrapper or an ordinary browser does not imply support for every action. Host routes, session services, and clipboard capabilities are still required.
• Disabling the plugin cleans up listeners and overlays. It does not edit upstream packages, the desktop shell, or other plugins’ files.
