fix(AIComponents): add AIConversationController for agent conversations - #3428
Every app built on the AI components works out messages, pendingMessage, isThinking, ratings, retries and editing itself. StreamChatAI (iOS) and stream-chat-react-native already share one conversation-state contract (AIConversation / AIConversationController). This brings the same controller to the web kit, so both JS kits read the same and an agent SDK transport (agentChatTransport) can plug into either.
Implementation details
Conversation/controller/: AIConversationController, AIConversationExchange, AIAgentError + AI_AGENT_ERROR_MESSAGE, offers, types, useAIConversationState, copied from React Native v9-release (including fix(ai-components): align agent conversations with the other SDKs stream-chat-react-native#3974). Names and behaviour are kept: send, stop, regenerate, edit/cancelEditing, retry, clearError, rate, loadOlderMessages, actions, chatOption, custom, the reply timeout and React Native's retry. A generated UI's action travels as request.custom.uiAction. Web adaptations only:
request attachments are Files; a pending message shows them through object URLs the controller makes once per file and revokes on dispose();
the composer store is the web AIMessageComposerStore, which gains isEditing, chatOption and custom (new createAIMessageComposerStore(), React Native's createNewComposerStore);
ids come from crypto.randomUUID (with a fallback for insecure contexts), deep comparison uses react-fast-compare, and useStateStore is the SDK's own;
AIMessage gains rating;
AI_AGENT_ERROR_MESSAGE stays English text, as in React Native; web translation keys are dotted ids, so the README shows how to detect the error and show copy of your own.
<AIConversation conversation={…}>: reads messages, the pending message, thinking (status submitted), older messages, the approver and reply actions (rating, regenerate when offered), and offers edit on the person's latest message. The existing props keep working; messages is now optional.
<AIMessageComposer conversation={…}>: uses the controller's composer store; submitting sends { text, attachments, chatOption, custom } through conversation.send unless onSubmit calls preventDefault(); SubmitButton turns into a StopButton while the agent answers, and Enter doesn't send meanwhile; an "Editing" chip with a cancel button shows while isEditing, and the text input takes focus. ChatOptions keeps the picked option in the store, where it stays picked across a form reset.
Two new translation keys: aiComponents.messageComposer.editing.text and aiComponents.messageComposer.cancelEditing.ariaLabel.
README: a new AIConversationController section, including the StrictMode-safe pattern (create the controller in a useEffect and dispose() it in that effect's cleanup, never useState(() => new …) plus dispose).
Tests: React Native's controller and exchange suites ported to Vitest (100 tests), UI tests for the controlled conversation, the composer and a StrictMode mount, and the tracker regressions. yarn test, yarn lint, yarn types and yarn validate-translations pass; yarn types:tests reports no errors in the touched files.
UI Changes
Composer: an "Editing" chip with a cancel button above the text while a message is edited, styled like the chat-option chip; in layout='inline' it takes a full-width row. Not yet checked in a browser.
Composer with a conversation: the send button turns into the stop button while the agent answers.
Summary by CodeRabbit
New Features
Added controller-backed AI conversations with response status, message editing, retry and regeneration, stopping responses, reply ratings, and loading older messages.
AI conversation and composer components can connect to a conversation controller. The composer supports editing drafts, canceling edits, and showing a stop control while a response is in progress.
Added conversation state subscriptions and configurable chat-option selection.
Added translated labels for canceling edits and the editing status.
Documentation
Updated AI component guidance with controller setup, lifecycle, and usage details.
Port stream-chat-react-native's AIConversationController (v9-release, incl. #3974) to
stream-chat-react/ai-components with the same names, state and behaviour, and give
AIConversation and AIMessageComposer an optional `conversation` prop.
Also fixes AIPendingMessageTracker: a question whose copy arrives in the update that first
passes it no longer shows twice, and a turn that starts with a reply keeps its key when older
messages load above it.
No actionable comments were generated in the recent review.
Walkthrough
This change adds AIConversationController, which connects AI conversation components to a transport and manages requests, messages, activity, errors, ratings, and actions. AIConversation and AIMessageComposer can use controller state. The changes also add composer editing controls, tests, and documentation.

Adds public contracts for conversation status, requests, activity, feeds, and transports. Adds exchange tracking for pending and replaced messages, reply detection, and retry request selection. Adds composer store creation and agent error handling.
Controller operations and transport lifecycle src/plugins/AIComponents/Conversation/controller/AIConversationController.ts, src/plugins/AIComponents/Conversation/controller/useAIConversationState.ts, src/plugins/AIComponents/__tests__/conversationController.test.ts
Adds controller operations for sending, editing, retrying, stopping, regenerating, rating, and loading older messages. The controller processes transport updates and derives conversation state, including errors and timeouts.
Adds a controller-backed conversation view with controller-derived messages, status, ratings, approver, and actions. Turn tracking preserves turn starts, and pending-message tracking reconciles incoming user messages.

The composer can submit through a controller, preserve chat-option selection, and show stop and editing controls based on controller state. Adds editing labels, styling, integration tests, and usage documentation.
GetStream/stream-chat-react#3389: Adds the AI conversation components and composer that this change extends with controller support.
GetStream/stream-chat-react#3315: Establishes the base AIConversation and AIMessageComposer APIs that this change updates to accept controller state and actions.
GetStream/stream-chat-react#3424: Changes AIMessageComposer and adds StopButton; this change uses controller state to connect stop behavior to conversation.stop.
Merge Risk: Low · up to 9953d
Two minor, narrow edge cases remain open: a stopped reply can hide a send failure behind the wrong status, and a file with no MIME type can show as a broken image thumbnail. Neither blocks the main workflow, so this is mergeable with owner awareness.

Included review availability: This review used your included allowance. Your plan provides up to 4 included reviews per hour; 3 remain after this review.
Keep stopped replies stopped when a new request starts.
If the transport keeps a stopped reply’s isGenerating flag set and the next send fails before the feed changes, start() has cleared the reply’s stopped ID. The old reply can then make the status streaming or submitted instead of error. The composer shows StopButton, and an empty stopped reply becomes visible.
Keep the stopped state for old replies, but allow a regenerated reply to stream when the transport rewrites it under the same ID.

Do not treat an empty MIME type as proof of an image.
An empty-type non-image can render as a broken thumbnail instead of a file row. The message copy can retain that attachment. A filename extension alone does not establish that the file contains a displayable image.

feat(AIComponents): add AIConversationController for agent conversations
fix(AIComponents): add AIConversationController for agent conversations
Nov 11, 2026
…ns (v14) (#3429)
Ticket:
https://linear.app/stream/issue/REACT-1559/ai-components-add-aiconversationcontroller-port-from-react-native-and
### Goal
The v14 port of #3428, for the `release-v14` line.
Every app built on the AI components works out `messages`,
`pendingMessage`, `isThinking`, ratings, retries and editing itself.
StreamChatAI (iOS) and stream-chat-react-native already share one
conversation-state contract (`AIConversation` /
`AIConversationController`). This brings the same controller to the web
kit, so both JS kits read the same and an agent SDK transport
(`agentChatTransport`) can plug into either.
### Implementation details
- `Conversation/controller/`: `AIConversationController`,
`AIConversationExchange`, `AIAgentError` + `AI_AGENT_ERROR_MESSAGE`,
`offers`, `types`, `useAIConversationState`, copied from React Native
`v9-release` (including GetStream/stream-chat-react-native#3974). Names
and behaviour are kept: send, stop, regenerate, edit/cancelEditing,
retry, clearError, rate, loadOlderMessages, `actions`, `chatOption`,
`custom`, the reply timeout and React Native's retry. A generated UI's
action travels as `request.custom.uiAction`. Web adaptations only:
- request attachments are `File`s; a pending message shows them through
object URLs the controller makes once per file and revokes on
`dispose()`;
- the composer store is the web `AIMessageComposerStore`, which gains
`isEditing`, `chatOption` and `custom` (new
`createAIMessageComposerStore()`, React Native's
`createNewComposerStore`);
- ids come from `crypto.randomUUID` (with a fallback for insecure
contexts), deep comparison uses `react-fast-compare`, `StateStore` comes
from `stream-chat`, and `useStateStore` is the SDK's own;
- `AIMessage` gains `rating`;
- `AI_AGENT_ERROR_MESSAGE` stays English text, as in React Native; the
README shows how to detect the error and show copy of your own.
- `<AIConversation conversation={…}>`: reads messages, the pending
message, thinking (status `submitted`), older messages, the approver and
reply actions (rating, regenerate when offered), and offers edit on the
person's latest message. The existing props keep working; `messages` is
now optional.
- `<AIMessageComposer conversation={…}>`: uses the controller's composer
store; submitting sends `{ text, attachments, chatOption, custom }`
through `conversation.send` unless `onSubmit` calls `preventDefault()`;
`SubmitButton` turns into a `StopButton` while the agent answers, and
Enter doesn't send meanwhile; an "Editing" chip with a cancel button
shows while `isEditing`, and the text input takes focus. `ChatOptions`
keeps the picked option in the store, where it stays picked across a
form reset.
- `AIPendingMessageTracker` / `turnsOf`: ported the fixes from
GetStream/stream-chat-react-native#3974. A question no longer shows
twice when its copy arrives in the same update, and a turn keeps its key
when older messages load above it. The new tests fail on `release-v14`.
- Two new translation keys, `Editing` and `aria/Cancel editing`, filled
in all 12 locales (React Native's wording where it has them; German and
Portuguese are new).
- README: a new `AIConversationController` section, including the
StrictMode-safe pattern (create the controller in a `useEffect` and
`dispose()` it in that effect's cleanup, never `useState(() => new …)`
plus dispose).
Tests: React Native's controller and exchange suites ported to Vitest
(100 tests), UI tests for the controlled conversation, the composer and
a StrictMode mount, and the tracker regressions. `yarn lint` (including
translation validation), `yarn types` and `yarn test` (266 files, 3550
tests) pass.
### UI Changes
- Composer: an "Editing" chip with a cancel button above the text while
a message is edited, styled like the chat-option chip; in
`layout='inline'` it takes a full-width row. Not yet checked in a
browser.
- Composer with a conversation: the send button turns into the stop
button while the agent answers.
…nts (#1951)
## Why
Every app that shows an agent conversation in Stream's AI components
writes the same glue between a session and the components:
`react_assistant`'s `agentChat.ts` and `chatScreen.ts`, and the
`agent/agentChat.ts` and `agent/agentTransport.ts` of
stream-chat-react-native's `ExpoChatGPTSample` and `ExpoCrewAssistant`.
The generic part (pending question, status, retry, reply timeout,
ratings) now lives in the kits' `AIConversationController`
(stream-chat-react-native `v9-release`; stream-chat-react in
GetStream/stream-chat-react#3428). This adds the part only the router's
protocol knows to the SDK, as the controller's transport.
## Changes
- `AgentChat` (`@stream-io/stream-agents/chat`): a conversation held in
writing.
- It reads the channel's messages on stream-chat 9
(`channel.state.messages`) or 10 (`messagePaginator`), plus each reply's
whole thinking via `LiveReasoning`.
- Activity comes from `session.state` and `session.conversation`:
`thinking`, `working` with its skills, and `failed` for an `llm` failure
reported after it followed the session.
- It has `send`, `stop`, `prepare`, `follow(channel)`, and
`loadOlderMessages`, which rejects on failure.
- The session opens lazily, once only, and again after its socket
dropped. A new conversation's session is deleted on `close` if it was
never asked anything, or if its first question failed. `close` is
idempotent, so StrictMode's create-in-effect, close-in-cleanup pattern
is safe.
- `agentChatTransport(chat, { adapt, images, reasoningEffort,
workingText, failedText })`: the transport of an
`AIConversationController`, typed by shape so the SDK imports neither
kit.
- The controller's `messageId` goes out as `requestId`, which the router
stores the person's message under.
- A generated-UI action is read from `custom.uiAction`.
- A `regenerate` is asked again as a new question, and an `edit` is
refused (the router can't rewind).
- A failed reply becomes an `AI_STATE_ERROR` activity with no text, so
the kit shows its own translated message rather than the provider's raw
error.
- `AgentChatStore`: `chat.state` has the shape of `StateStore` from
`@stream-io/state-store`, so `useStateStore` reads it. It is implemented
here because the package takes no runtime dependencies.
- README section, CHANGELOG entry, and a note in the `sdk` skill that
Swift, Kotlin and Dart need the same.
## Validation
- `npm test` in `sdks/js`: 563 of 563 pass, 25 of them new
(`tests/agent-chat.test.ts`), after rebasing onto `accelerate`. `npm run
build` is clean.
- The new tests catch these defects:
- a second session opened by concurrent asks;
- a new conversation that was only looked at being created, or its
unused session left in the list on close or after a failed first
question;
- a session leaked when the chat closed while it opened, or when its
channel couldn't be read;
- a call's speech failure, or one from before the session was followed,
shown as a failed reply;
- older messages not loaded before the oldest one (stream-chat 9) or not
through the paginator (stream-chat 10), and a failed load not rejecting;
- live thinking not read before the messages are re-fed;
- the transport sending a regenerate under the original request id (the
router would treat it as a duplicate), passing raw failure text, or
dropping photos silently;
- a store selector firing on unrelated changes, which would re-render
`useStateStore` readers.
- Not yet run against a live router or a real
`AIConversationController`. The tests use structural fakes of channels
and sessions, as the SDK's existing chat tests do. The first real check
is switching the Expo examples once this is released.
