- Skip copilotkit.connectAgent when CopilotChat lacks a caller-supplied
threadId — a locally-minted UUID has no backend record, so /connect
would always 404 on the intelligence platform.
- Suppress the welcome screen while a connect is in flight and
unconditionally when the caller has supplied a threadId
(hasExplicitThreadId). Prevents the "How can I help you today?"
flash on thread switch.
- Gate suggestions on !isConnecting && !isRunning to avoid painting
them against a mid-replay message tree.
- Defer the isConnecting release by one animation frame so trailing
bootstrap renders commit before the flag flips.
- Reserve room for the "Powered by CopilotKit" license badge via a
new --copilotkit-license-banner-offset CSS var published by the
banner on mount; chat input consumes it only when bottom-anchored.
- Sort and display threads by lastRunAt (fallback to updatedAt →
createdAt) so metadata-only actions like archive/rename don't
reshuffle the list.
- useThreads waits for runtimeConnectionStatus === Connected before
dispatching the store context, eliminating the speculative /threads
fetch that fired before /info returned wsUrl.
Threads example polish: restore button + tooltips on
archive/restore/delete, segmented Active/All filter, graceful error
state, skeleton rows on initial load, stable scrollbar gutter,
pre-paint dark-mode class, logo position stable across app/chat
modes, drop dynamic-import drawer wrapper that caused null first
paint, archived-row dimming via child colors instead of opacity.
Tests:
- CopilotChat.absentThreadConnect: connect is skipped without a
threadId, fires when supplied via prop or config.
- CopilotChatView.connectingGate: isConnecting suppresses welcome;
hasExplicitThreadId suppresses welcome on empty chat.
- threads (core): lastRunAt sort fallback ordering.
- use-threads: Connecting-state gate defers /threads until Connected.
