This plugin provides the following context menus for images in Obsidian:
- Copy to clipboard
- Open in default app
- Show in system explorer
- Reveal file in navigation
- Reveal in File Tree Alternative
- Open in new tab
- also available through middle mouse button click
It also has an Open PDF externally
context menu for PDFs.
Context menus are also added to the canvas.
Most features work on mobile, but were only tested on Android. Mobile uses the native image sharing functionality instead of the clipboard, and it downloads online images temporarily so they can be shared.
This plugin used to be called "Copy Image and URL context menu". It had link URL copying functionality (see 1.5.2 and prior), but that was removed when it was included in Obsidian 1.5.

Thank you to the makers of the Tag Wrangler plugin, as it was a great starting point for working with context menus in Obsidian.
