CopilotKit v2 Development Skill

Live Documentation (MCP)

This plugin includes an MCP server (copilotkit-docs) that provides search-docs and search-code tools for querying live CopilotKit documentation and source code.

• Claude Code: Auto-configured by the plugin's .mcp.json -- no setup needed.
• Codex: Requires manual configuration. See the copilotkit-debug skill for setup instructions.

Architecture Overview

CopilotKit v2 is built on the AG-UI protocol (@ag-ui/client / @ag-ui/core). The stack has three layers:

1. Runtime (@copilotkit/runtime) -- Server-side. Hosts agents, handles SSE/Intelligence transport, middleware, transcription.
2. Core (@copilotkit/core) -- Shared state management, tool registry, suggestion engine. Not imported directly by apps.
3. React (@copilotkit/react) -- Provider, chat components, hooks. Re-exports everything from @ag-ui/client so apps need only one import.

Workflow

1. Set Up the Runtime (Server)

Create a CopilotRuntime (or the explicit CopilotSseRuntime / CopilotIntelligenceRuntime) and expose it via createCopilotEndpoint (Hono) or createCopilotEndpointExpress (Express).

import { CopilotRuntime, createCopilotEndpoint } from "@copilotkit/runtime";
import { LangGraphAgent } from "@ag-ui/langgraph";

const runtime = new CopilotRuntime({
  agents: {
    myAgent: new LangGraphAgent({ /* ... */ }),
  },
});

const app = createCopilotEndpoint({
  runtime,
  basePath: "/api/copilotkit",
});

2. Wrap Your App with the Provider (Client)

import { CopilotKitProvider } from "@copilotkit/react";

function App() {
  return (
    <CopilotKitProvider runtimeUrl="/api/copilotkit">
      <YourApp />
    </CopilotKitProvider>
  );
}

3. Add a Chat UI

Use <CopilotChat>, <CopilotPopup>, or <CopilotSidebar>:

import { CopilotChat } from "@copilotkit/react";

function ChatPage() {
  return <CopilotChat agentId="myAgent" />;
}

4. Register Frontend Tools

Let the agent call functions in the browser:

import { useFrontendTool } from "@copilotkit/react";
import { z } from "zod";

useFrontendTool({
  name: "highlightCell",
  description: "Highlight a spreadsheet cell",
  parameters: z.object({ row: z.number(), col: z.number() }),
  handler: async ({ row, col }) => {
    highlightCell(row, col);
    return "done";
  },
});

5. Share Application Context

Provide runtime data to the agent:

import { useAgentContext } from "@copilotkit/react";

useAgentContext({
  description: "The user's current shopping cart",
  value: cart, // any JSON-serializable value
});

6. Handle Agent Interrupts

When an agent pauses for human input:

import { useInterrupt } from "@copilotkit/react";

useInterrupt({
  render: ({ event, resolve }) => (
    <div>
      <p>{event.value.question}</p>
      <button onClick={() => resolve({ approved: true })}>Approve</button>
    </div>
  ),
});

7. Render Tool Calls in Chat

Show custom UI when tools execute:

import { useRenderTool } from "@copilotkit/react";
import { z } from "zod";

useRenderTool({
  name: "searchDocs",
  parameters: z.object({ query: z.string() }),
  render: ({ status, parameters, result }) => {
    if (status === "executing") return <Spinner>Searching {parameters.query}...</Spinner>;
    if (status === "complete") return <Results data={result} />;
    return <div>Preparing...</div>;
  },
}, []);
