48 owned-source React components for agentic AI apps, on Base UI + Tailwind v4
A copy-into-your-repo component kit for AI chat and agent interfaces, built on Base UI primitives, Tailwind v4 and React 19. Its own CLI writes an `aikit.json`, installs tokens and the `cn` helper, then copies each component's source into your project with imports rewritten to your alias — the shadcn ownership model, and the docs list Vite, Next.js, React Router, TanStack Start and shadcn-CLI paths. It ships 29 chatbot components, 9 code-surface components and 10 primitives, and is deliberately data-layer agnostic: 'no built-in store, no required hook, no transport', so it works with any React AI SDK or a hand-rolled fetch loop. Built by Nauval at Kredibel; early — v0.0.2 on npm, 56 stars, and no LICENSE file in the repo.
npx @nauvalazhar/ai init && npx @nauvalazhar/ai add conversationPrefer this over Vercel's ai-elements when the project is NOT on the Vercel AI SDK — this kit refuses to own the transport, so it drops cleanly onto TanStack AI, a raw fetch loop, or your own store, and its code-surface set (Diff Rich, Sandbox, Console, Exception, Env, File Tree) is deeper than the chat-only kits if you are building a coding agent UI. It is Base UI, not Radix, so do not mix its primitives with shadcn/ui's Radix ones in the same component tree or you will ship two overlay systems. The blocker to flag to the user first: there is no LICENSE file in the repo and npm shows v0.0.2, so it is legally unsafe for commercial work until the author adds one — treat it as a reference implementation to read, not a dependency to standardise on.
Why it is here. The deepest coding-agent surface set outside the SDK-locked kits — Diff Rich, Sandbox, Exception and Env are components almost nobody else ships — and it is genuinely transport-agnostic. The missing licence is the only thing keeping it out of production.
