## Operations

- [`selection.current`](/document-api/reference/selection/current) (read): Read the editor's current selection as a portable SelectionInfo with a text-anchored TextTarget. Primitive for building custom comments UIs, floating toolbars, and other selection-driven components without reaching into ProseMirror internals.
