`CopilotChatConfigurationProvider` is a React context provider that manages configuration for chat UI components,
including labels, agent ID, and thread ID. It enables customization of all text labels in the chat interface and
provides context for chat components to access configuration values.

## What is CopilotChatConfigurationProvider?

The CopilotChatConfigurationProvider:

- Manages UI labels for all chat components (placeholders, button labels, etc.), allowing for localization or
customization of the chat interface.
- Lets you to access the current `agentId` and `threadId`
- Supports nested configuration with proper inheritance

## Basic Usage

Wrap your chat components with the provider to customize configuration:

```tsx
import { CopilotChatConfigurationProvider } from "@copilotkitnext/react";

function App() {
return (
<CopilotChatConfigurationProvider
threadId="main-thread"
agentId="assistant"
labels={{
chatInputPlaceholder: "Ask me anything...",
assistantMessageToolbarCopyMessageLabel: "Copy response",
}}
>
{/* Your chat components */}
</CopilotChatConfigurationProvider>
);
}
```

## Props

### threadId

`string` **(required)**

A unique identifier for the conversation thread. This is used to maintain conversation history and context.

```tsx
<CopilotChatConfigurationProvider threadId="conversation-123">{children}</CopilotChatConfigurationProvider>
```

### agentId

`string` **(optional)**

The ID of the agent to use for this chat context. If not provided, defaults to `"default"`.

```tsx
<CopilotChatConfigurationProvider threadId="thread-1" agentId="customer-support">
{children}
</CopilotChatConfigurationProvider>
```

### labels

`Partial<CopilotChatLabels>` **(optional)**

Custom labels for chat UI elements. Any labels not provided will use the default values.

```tsx
<CopilotChatConfigurationProvider
threadId="thread-1"
labels={{
chatInputPlaceholder: "Type your message here...",
chatDisclaimerText: "AI responses may contain errors.",
assistantMessageToolbarRegenerateLabel: "Try again",
}}
>
{children}
</CopilotChatConfigurationProvider>
```

### children

`ReactNode` **(required)**

The React components that will have access to the chat configuration context.

## Using with CopilotChat

The `CopilotChat` component automatically creates its own `CopilotChatConfigurationProvider` internally. When using
`CopilotChat`, you can pass configuration directly as props:

```tsx
<CopilotChat
threadId="main-thread"
agentId="assistant"
labels={{
chatInputPlaceholder: "How can I help you today?",
}}
/>
```

### Priority System

When `CopilotChat` is used within an existing `CopilotChatConfigurationProvider`, values are merged with the following
priority (highest to lowest):

1. Props passed directly to `CopilotChat`
2. Values from the outer `CopilotChatConfigurationProvider`
3. Default values

Example:

```tsx
<CopilotChatConfigurationProvider agentId="outer-agent">
<CopilotChat
threadId="inner-thread"
// agentId inherits from outer: "outer-agent"
/>
</CopilotChatConfigurationProvider>
```

## Accessing Configuration

Use the `useCopilotChatConfiguration` hook to access configuration values in your components:

```tsx
import { useCopilotChatConfiguration } from "@copilotkitnext/react";

function MyComponent() {
const config = useCopilotChatConfiguration();

if (!config) {
// No provider found
return null;
}

return (
<div>
<p>Agent: {config.agentId}</p>
<p>Thread: {config.threadId}</p>
<p>Labels: {JSON.stringify(config.labels)}</p>
</div>
);
}
```

Note: The hook returns `null` if no provider is found in the component tree.

## Localization Example

The provider is ideal for implementing localization:

```tsx
import { useTranslation } from "react-i18next";

function LocalizedChat() {
const { t } = useTranslation();

return (
<CopilotChatConfigurationProvider
threadId="chat-1"
labels={{
chatInputPlaceholder: t("chat.input.placeholder"),
assistantMessageToolbarCopyMessageLabel: t("chat.assistant.copy"),
assistantMessageToolbarThumbsUpLabel: t("chat.assistant.thumbsUp"),
assistantMessageToolbarThumbsDownLabel: t("chat.assistant.thumbsDown"),
userMessageToolbarEditMessageLabel: t("chat.user.edit"),
chatDisclaimerText: t("chat.disclaimer"),
}}
>
<CopilotChat />
</CopilotChatConfigurationProvider>
);
}
```

`CopilotChat` is a React component that provides a complete chat interface for interacting with AI agents. It handles
message display, user input, tool execution rendering, and agent communication automatically.

## What is CopilotChat?

The CopilotChat component:

- Provides a complete chat UI out of the box
- Manages conversation threads and message history
- Automatically connects to agents and handles message routing
- Renders tool executions with visual feedback
- Supports customization through props and slots
- Handles auto-scrolling and responsive layouts

## Basic Usage

```tsx
import { CopilotChat, CopilotKitProvider } from "@copilotkitnext/react";

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

## Props

### agentId

`string` **(optional)**

The ID of the agent to connect to. Defaults to `"default"`.

```tsx
<CopilotChat agentId="assistant" />
```

### threadId

`string` **(optional)**

The conversation thread ID. If not provided, a new thread ID is automatically generated.

```tsx
<CopilotChat threadId="thread-123" />
```

### labels

`Partial<CopilotChatLabels>` **(optional)**

Customize the text labels used throughout the chat interface.

```tsx
<CopilotChat
labels={{
chatInputPlaceholder: "Ask me anything...",
chatDisclaimerText: "AI assistant - verify important info",
// ...
}}
/>
```

### autoScroll

`boolean` **(optional, default: true)**

Automatically scroll to the bottom when new messages appear.

```tsx
<CopilotChat autoScroll={false} />
```

### className

`string` **(optional)**

CSS class name for the root container.

```tsx
<CopilotChat className="h-screen bg-white" />
```

### Component Slots

CopilotChat supports slot customization for various parts of the UI:

```tsx
<CopilotChat
messageView={CustomMessageView}
input={CustomInput}
scrollView={CustomScrollView}
scrollToBottomButton={CustomScrollButton}
inputContainer={CustomInputContainer}
feather={CustomFeather}
disclaimer={CustomDisclaimer}
/>
```

## Auto-scrolling Behavior

CopilotChat automatically scrolls to the bottom when:

- New messages are added
- The user is already near the bottom
- `autoScroll` prop is true (default)

The scroll-to-bottom button appears when the user scrolls up and new content is available.
