Install
npm install @elabs-ai/components-tokens @elabs-ai/components-ui

Skipping the @source line is the most common first failure: Tailwind does not scan node_modules, so every component renders unstyled. The one-time wiring

Paste it into Claude Code, Cursor, Codex or any other coding agent. Text in [brackets] is yours to fill in.

Add the brand-ui CopyableValue component (from @elabs-ai/components-ui) to this project.

1. Read https://elabs-ai.com/llms.txt first: it maps every package and the rules. If you can use MCP servers, connect https://elabs-ai.com/mcp and use its search, docs and tokens tools. If not, run the same lookups in the terminal: `npx -y @elabs-ai/components-cli search "<what you need>"` and `npx -y @elabs-ai/components-cli docs <Component>`.
2. Look CopyableValue up before writing code: `npx -y @elabs-ai/components-cli docs CopyableValue` prints its real props, variants, what it pairs with and what to avoid.
3. If @elabs-ai/components-ui is not installed yet: `pnpm add @elabs-ai/components-tokens @elabs-ai/components-ui` (or `npm install @elabs-ai/components-tokens @elabs-ai/components-ui`). If this is the first brand-ui package in the project, wire it once: import `@elabs-ai/components-tokens/styles.css` plus the `themes/light.css` and `themes/dark.css` stylesheets in the CSS entry, add one Tailwind `@source` line per installed @elabs-ai package (Tailwind does not scan node_modules, so without it everything renders unstyled), and wrap the app root in `ThemeProvider` from `@elabs-ai/components-tokens`.
4. Use it here: [the screen or file, and what it should show]
5. Rules: use only @elabs-ai/components-* components and the semantic tokens — no raw colours, no raw font sizes, no arbitrary Tailwind values. Look up each component's real props with the docs tool before you use it; never guess a prop.
6. Done means: the typecheck passes, `npx -y @elabs-ai/components-cli audit src --strict` reports nothing, and you have opened the app and looked at every screen you touched in the light and the dark theme.

Compacted

The usual case: a compact display over an unrounded clipboard payload.

In Prose

Inline inside a sentence — it reads as text, not as a link.

Custom Hint

The hint is part of the accessible name, so voice control can say what it reads.

Keyboard Reachable

Keyboard path: the value is a real button, so it is a tab stop and Enter copies. jsdom/Chromium may deny clipboard permission — the assertion is on the control's reachability and name, not on the clipboard contents.

API

CopyableValue

PropTypeDescription
valuerequiredstringThe EXACT text written to the clipboard — the unrounded, un-abbreviated value. Not locale-formatted by this component: a copied number is usually on its way into a spreadsheet or a query.
childrenReactNodeWhat the reader sees. Defaults to `value`.
hintstringOverrides the screen-reader hint appended to the visible text. The accessible name is always `<visible text> + <hint>`, which keeps WCAG 2.5.3 (Label in Name) satisfied — voice-control users can say what they read.
resetAfterMsnumberms the "Copied" confirmation stays. Default: 1500.

Also accepts: Omit< ButtonHTMLAttributes<HTMLButtonElement>, "value" | "children" >
