OpenUI Lang
Every assistant reply is an OpenUI Lang program whose first statement assigns
root. This agent uses openuiChatLibrary from @openuidev/react-ui/genui-lib
(the same library as the official
openui-chat
example). The build-time system prompt comes from
openuiChatLibrary.prompt(openuiChatPromptOptions).
Chat library constraints
openuiChatLibrary centers on chat primitives: Card, CardHeader, TextContent,
Table, lists, and follow-ups. Do not use Stack; it belongs to the broader
OpenUI library, not this agent's chat library.
For a layout example, see syntax-examples.
Debugging checklist
- Confirm the reply starts with
root = ...
- Confirm every referenced identifier is defined
- Confirm tool-backed values match the latest tool JSON
- Remove markdown fences or prose around the program
- Re-run with a smaller layout if the stream was truncated
Done when each item is confirmed or ruled out and the reply is a valid OpenUI
Lang program starting with root =.
Frontend integration
