Issue: I have tried both single and double clicking on the 'Filter' option. In the logs, it says that it is clicking but I can visually see that no click has been performed.

Discussion:
especially components in the drop-down list, it always said that the button is clicked but actullay the buton is not clicked.
@harnoor1996  can you post your script with the task prompt and the url where u are trying this on, would really help to debug this, thanks 
we have a dedicated action to handle getting dropdown list options and selecting one because dropdowns are tricky, but maybe the agent didn't use it in your case.

Can you try adding to the prompt: `use the dedicated tools get_dropdown_options and select_dropdown_option to interact with any dropdowns`.

It's also possible this site's dropdown is made via divs and CSS and JS and is not a real `<select>` element. We plan to improve support in this area eventually by checking aria roles and more, but contributions welcome too.

Edit: yeah just read the HTML you provided, it looks like a `<ul>` which is not recognized as a dropdown with our current methods until we add support for checking for `role="menu"`.
@claude can you create a new PR to add support to `get_dropdown_options` and `select_dropdown_option` for aria-marked menus like this

### Todo List

- [x] Read CLAUDE.md for repo-specific instructions
- [x] Find dropdown-related code (get_dropdown_options and select_dropdown_option)
- [x] Write failing tests for ARIA menu support
- [x] Implement ARIA menu support in get_dropdown_options
- [x] Implement ARIA menu support in select_dropdown_option
- [x] Run tests to ensure backwards compatibility
- [x] Fix any lint errors
- [x] Update documentation/examples if needed
- [x] Commit and push changes
- [x] Provide PR link

### Summary

Successfully implemented ARIA menu support for the dropdown functions! Here's what was done:

1. **Extended `get_dropdown_options`** to detect and handle ARIA menus with `role="menu"`, `role="listbox"`, and `role="combobox"`
2. **Extended `select_dropdown_option`** to click on ARIA menu items using JavaScript click events
3. **Added comprehensive tests** for ARIA menu functionality (in `tests/ci/test_aria_menu_dropdown.py`)
4. **Maintained backward compatibility** - the functions still work with native `<select>` elements as before

The implementation now supports both native dropdowns and ARIA-compliant menus like the one shown in the issue, allowing the agent to interact with modern UI components that use `<ul>` with `role="menu"` and `<li>` with `role="menuitem"`.
