assistant-ui Primitives

Always consult assistant-ui.com/llms.txt for the latest API.

Primitives are composable, unstyled components that follow Radix style part composition: a .Root provides context, .PartName children read it, and every part accepts asChild to merge its behavior onto your own element instead of rendering a wrapper. They ship with no styles and no opinions about layout, only behavior: keyboard shortcuts, auto scroll, streaming state, focus management, and disabled logic. Wrap your tree in AssistantRuntimeProvider (or a nested AuiProvider) before using any of them.
