+# Delivery and raw events
+
+Not every channel consumer needs an agent. An alerting worker only needs an
+adapter and `sendChannelMessage(channel, address, message)` from
+`@anvia/channel` — receiving never has to be started:
+
+```ts
+import { sendChannelMessage } from "@anvia/channel";
+import { discord } from "@anvia/discord";
+
+const channel = discord({ token: process.env.DISCORD_BOT_TOKEN ?? "" });
+
+await sendChannelMessage(
+  channel,
+  { platform: "discord", conversationId: process.env.DISCORD_CHANNEL_ID ?? "" },
+  {
+    text: monitoringReport,
+    actions: [{ id: "incident:ack", label: "Acknowledge", style: "primary" }],
+  },
+);
+```
+
+## sendChannelMessage vs channel.send
+
+Use `sendChannelMessage()` at application boundaries: it validates the message
+and splits long text to fit the platform before delivering each part. Use
+`channel.send()` only for one already-bounded logical message — piping dynamic
+or generated text through it is how messages silently get truncated.
+
+Related helpers, all from `@anvia/channel`:
+
+- `splitChannelText` / `splitChannelMessage` — the splitter, if you need the
+  parts yourself.
+- `validateChannelMessage` / `validateChannelActions` /
+  `validateChannelAttachments` — the validators.
+- Limits are exported constants: `MAX_CHANNEL_ACTIONS`,
+  `MAX_CHANNEL_ACTION_ID_BYTES`, `MAX_CHANNEL_ACTION_LABEL_LENGTH`,
+  `MAX_CHANNEL_ATTACHMENTS`.
+- `isChannelActionId` — action IDs must be CLI-safe strings.
+- `PartialDeliveryError` — thrown when a split message only partially
+  delivered; catch and reconcile rather than resend blind.
+
+Messages are `{ text, actions?, attachments?, replyToMessageId? }` and resolve
+to `SentChannelMessage` `{ id, address }` for later edits/deletes/reactions.
+
+## Direct event handling
+
+To consume events without the agent bridge, subscribe with a
+`ChannelEventHandler` and switch on the `ChannelEvent` union: message,
+message-edited, message-deleted, reaction, action, or command events — each
+carries the normalized content plus the raw payload as `RawEvent`. Action and
+command events are how button taps and slash commands reach application code
+when no agent is attached.

+description: Wire an Anvia chat UI end to end — server stream route, client transport, React hook, and UI primitives.
+---
+
+# Anvia Chat Skill
+
+Use this skill when the user wants a chat or completion UI backed by Anvia:
+new chat routes, transports, `useChat`/`useCompletion` wiring, message rendering,
+resumable streams, agent tool-approval interactions, or `anvia add chat` work.
+
+## Process
+
+1. Build the server route first (`references/server-protocol.md`).
+2. Pick the transport and state conversions (`references/transports-state.md`).
+3. Wire the React controller and render UI primitives (`references/react-ui.md`).
+4. Run `scripts/check-chat-boundary.sh` from the app root before claiming done.
+
+## Minimal slice
+
+```ts
+// Server route: core events -> client protocol -> framed response.
+import { completionToClientStream, parseClientStreamRequest } from "@anvia/client";
+import { streamCompletion } from "@anvia/core";
+import { createClientStreamResponse } from "@anvia/server";
+
+const body = parseClientStreamRequest(await request.json());
+if (body.type !== "messages") throw new Error("This completion endpoint accepts messages only.");
+const events = completionToClientStream({
+  events: streamCompletion({ model, messages: body.messages }),
+});
+return createClientStreamResponse({ events }); // JSONL by default
+```
+
+```tsx
+// App: explicit transport, hook owns state, primitives render it.
+import { createHttpClientTransport } from "@anvia/client";
+import { useChat } from "@anvia/react";
+import { ChatProvider, ComposerPrimitive, ThreadPrimitive } from "@anvia/react-ui";
+
+const transport = createHttpClientTransport({ endpoint: "/api/chat" });
+const chat = useChat({ transport });
+
+<ChatProvider controller={chat}>
+  <ThreadPrimitive.Root>
+    <ThreadPrimitive.Viewport>
+      <ThreadPrimitive.Messages />
+    </ThreadPrimitive.Viewport>
+    <ComposerPrimitive.Root>
+      <ComposerPrimitive.Input placeholder="Send a message..." />
+      <ComposerPrimitive.Submit>Send</ComposerPrimitive.Submit>
+    </ComposerPrimitive.Root>
+  </ThreadPrimitive.Root>
+</ChatProvider>;
+```
+
+## Output
+
+Keep the answer to the smallest working vertical slice: one route, one transport,
+one hook, one render tree. Point to the relevant reference file instead of
+pasting its contents into chat.

+# React and UI
+
+## Controllers (`@anvia/react`)
+
+`useChat` and `useCompletion` require an explicit transport boundary:
+
+```ts
+useChat({ transport });
+useChat({
+  transport: createDirectClientTransport({
+    handler: ({ request, abortSignal }) => handleChat({ request, abortSignal }),
+  }),
+});
+```
+
+`useChat`:
+
+- Consumes only framed `ClientStreamFrame` values.
+- Status: `ready | submitted | streaming | waiting | error`.
+- Keeps readonly `UIMessage[]` locally; sends core `Message[]` in
+  `ClientStreamRequest`.
+- Exposes canonical events via `onEvent` and the returned `events` array.
+- Exposes aggregate latest-run usage via `runUsage`; each assistant message
+  keeps its own provider-generation usage.
+- Actions: `sendMessage` (accepts attachments and metadata), `regenerate`,
+  `stop`, `reset`, `setMessages`, `resume()`. State also exposes `suggestions`,
+  `contextUsage`, `text`, and `streamId`. Submit through `sendMessage` rather
+  than mutating `messages`.
+- Supports resumable streams (`resume: { key }`, paired with the server's
+  resumable response) and unified Agent interaction state.
+
+When `chat.status === "waiting"`, render `chat.interactions.pending` and resume
+through the same transport boundary:
+
+```ts
+await chat.respondToInteraction({
+  interactionId,
+  response: { type: "tool-approval", approved: true },
+});
+```
+
+Render those prompts with `HumanInputPrimitive`, or drive them headlessly with
+`useApproval` / `useQuestion` — both from `@anvia/react-ui`.
+
+`useCompletion({ transport })` is single-turn: `complete({ prompt })` or manage
+`input` and call `submit()`. Each call replaces the previous completion, events,
+and usage — it never accumulates messages. The UI counterpart is
+`CompletionProvider` + `CompletionPrimitive`.
+
+`useSmoothStreamText` / `useSmoothStreamItems` only smooth presentation. They do
+not change protocol events or message state.
+
+## Headless primitives (`@anvia/react-ui`)
+
+Primitives are headless: no stylesheet, style via `className` or `asChild`.
+The DOM contract is ARIA attributes plus `data-state` / `data-role`.
+
+- Keep `useChat` as the owner of transport and `UIMessage[]` state; wrap it with
+  `ChatProvider` and render `ThreadPrimitive` / `MessagePrimitive` /
+  `ComposerPrimitive`.
+- Control `ComposerPrimitive.Root` with `input` / `attachments` props when
+  needed; use `submitMessage` for custom payloads. `keepMounted` keeps empty
+  wrappers for layout.
+- `ComposerPrimitive.Input` is Tiptap-backed. Configure `Root` with `triggers`
+  for inline `@` / `/` / `$` entity chips; selections submit under
+  `metadata.composer.entities`. Entity `data` must be finite strict JSON (no
+  class instances, cycles, accessors, symbols, `undefined`, non-finite numbers).
+  Use `ComposerPrimitive.TextareaInput` for plain textarea behavior.
+- Streaming reveal is opt-in and display-only. Keep the lifecycle mounted after
+  streaming stops so the buffered tail drains; `MessagePrimitive.Parts` holds
+  later tool parts behind unrevealed text:
+
+```tsx
+<MessagePrimitive.Parts
+  stream={{
+    isStreaming:
+      chat.status === "streaming" &&
+      message.role === "assistant" &&
+      chat.messages.at(-1)?.id === message.id,
+    resetKey: message.id,
+    flushImmediately: chat.status === "error",
+  }}
+>
+  {(part) => (part.type === "text" ? <MessagePrimitive.Markdown /> : <MessagePrimitive.Part />)}
+</MessagePrimitive.Parts>
+```
+
+- For app-owned text state, `StreamMarkdown` from `@anvia/react-ui/stream` is a
+  context-free renderer: pass displayed text as `content`, set `live` only for
+  the growing tail, and style `[data-state="revealing"]` in the app.
+
+## Editable components (`@anvia/cli`)
+
+For styled, app-owned components instead of headless composition:
+
+```sh
+pnpm dlx @anvia/cli add chat
+```
+
+Items: `chat`, `thread`, `message`, `composer`, `attachment`, `markdown`,
+`tool-fallback`. `add` writes below the `components` alias (normally
+`src/components/anvia`) and installs the matching `@anvia/react-ui` release.
+`@anvia/cli` installs the `[data-state="revealing"]` animation with the
+`markdown`, `message`, `thread`, and `chat` items.

+# Server Protocol
+
+Server routes adapt native runtime events at the boundary, then frame them.
+`@anvia/core` owns native completion and Agent events; `@anvia/client` owns the
+wire adapters; `@anvia/server` owns the HTTP framing.
+
+## Completion route
+
+```ts
+import { completionToClientStream, parseClientStreamRequest } from "@anvia/client";
+import { streamCompletion } from "@anvia/core";
+import { createClientStreamResponse } from "@anvia/server";
+
+const body = parseClientStreamRequest(await request.json());
+if (body.type !== "messages") throw new Error("This completion endpoint accepts messages only.");
+const events = completionToClientStream({
+  events: streamCompletion({ model, messages: body.messages }),
+});
+return createClientStreamResponse({ events }); // JSONL by default
+```
+
+## Agent route
+
+Use `agentToClientStream` instead of `completionToClientStream` for Agent events
+(it preserves nested-agent scope). Accept both request shapes: `messages` starts
+a run, `interaction_response` resumes one. Validate with `parseClientStreamRequest`.
+
+For application-defined stream data, `customAgentEventsToClientStream` wraps an
+agent event stream and `mapCustomEvent` maps app events into `data` events; the
+client validates them against `dataSchemas` (see
+`references/transports-state.md`) and they surface as data parts.
+
+## Framing rules
+
+- `createClientStreamResponse({ events })` always emits `stream_start`, ordered
+  `stream_event` frames, then `stream_end`, with header
+  `x-anvia-stream-protocol: anvia.client.v3`. This is the client protocol claim.
+- Pass `format: "sse"` for SSE framing; JSONL is the default.
+- For resumable streams, pass `{ resumable: { streamId, store } }` when creating
+  the response and call `resumeClientStreamResponse({ streamId, after, store })`
+  for resume requests. The client side pairs this with
+  `useChat({ transport, resume: { key } })`.
+- `createEventStreamResponse` / `resumeEventStreamResponse` (and the lower-level
+  `createJsonlStream`, `createSseStream`, `createResumableStream`,
+  `resumeStreamEvents`, `createMemoryResumableStreamStore`) are generic helpers.
+  They serialize the application's own event type and do NOT claim the Anvia
+  client protocol. Use them only for endpoints that intentionally expose a
+  different event contract.
+
+## Error exposure
+
+Errors are masked by default. Use `mapError` only at the server adapter boundary
+when the application intentionally exposes a safe error shape.

+# Transports and State
+
+## The boundary rule
+
+Client-side `UIMessage[]` never crosses the server boundary. The request carries
+core `Message[]`; the response carries framed `ClientStreamEvent` records.
+Convert explicitly at the edges:
+
+- `uiMessagesToMessages()` — client state to request. Rejects partial tool calls
+  instead of replaying incomplete JSON or inventing empty arguments.
+- `messagesToUIMessages()` — persisted core messages to UI state.
+- `applyClientStreamEvent(messages, event)` — apply canonical stream events to
+  `UIMessage[]`.
+- `parseUIMessage` / `parseUIMessages` — validate externally loaded UI state.
+- `parseClientStreamRequest` / `parseClientStreamEvent` / `parseClientStreamFrame`
+  — validate public wire input at runtime.
+
+`UIMessage.metadata` is application-owned and round-trips unchanged. Run details
+(run ID, usage, context usage, status, trace correlation) live separately in
+`UIMessage.generation`; converting persisted core messages hydrates usage into
+that field and restores persisted sources as UI parts.
+
+## Transports
+
+```ts
+// HTTP: framed JSONL or SSE, validates protocol header, frame order,
+// stream identity, and event IDs.
+const transport = createHttpClientTransport({ endpoint: "/api/chat" });
+
+// Direct (same process / tests): same framed contract, no HTTP.
+const transport = createDirectClientTransport({
+  handler: ({ request, abortSignal }) => handleChat({ request, abortSignal }),
+});
+```
+
+- Import transports, protocol types, `UIMessage`, and conversion helpers from
+  `@anvia/client`. `@anvia/react` deliberately does not re-export them.
+- Low-level JSONL/SSE readers live in `@anvia/client/transport`. They do not
+  imply the client protocol — use them only for non-protocol endpoints.
+- `UIToolMessagePart` states are exact: `input-streaming` carries raw partial
+  text, `input-available` carries parsed JSON input, terminal `output-available`
+  or `error` parts retain that input with their result.
+- Tool-call start/delta/end events are automatic when the provider streams
+  arguments.
+
+## Agent interactions
+
+- The browser never receives an `AgentContinuation`. The server retains it and
+  atomically claims it by interaction ID. Agent interaction wire contracts come
+  from the browser-safe `@anvia/core/agent/interactions` subpath — importing the
+  client never loads the Agent runtime.
+- Name interaction types from `@anvia/core/agent/interactions` when the app
+  needs them.
+
+## App-specific data
+
+Application stream data is explicit and schema-validated:
+
+```ts
+type AppData = {
+  citation_preview: { title: string; url: string };
+};
+
+const transport = createHttpClientTransport<ClientStreamRequest, AppData>({
+  endpoint: "/api/chat",
+  dataSchemas: { citation_preview: citationPreviewSchema },
+});
+```
+
+Non-JSON tool outputs require an explicit `mapOutput`: returning `undefined`
+omits the output, returning `null` exposes JSON `null`.

+# Anvia Evals Skill
+
+Use this skill when the user wants to measure output quality: scoring a target
+function or agent over cases, picking metrics, adding an LLM judge, checking RAG
+grounding, or wiring evals into CI.
+
+## Process
+
+1. Start deterministic (`references/metrics.md`) — exact match, contains, semantic similarity.
+2. Add judges only for what strings cannot check (`references/judges.md`).
+3. Run it right (`references/running.md`) — `runEvalSuite` vs `runEvalCli`, negative controls, expectations.
+4. Run `scripts/check-evals.sh` from the app root before claiming done.
+
+## Minimal slice
+
+```ts
+import { contains, exactMatch, runEvalCli } from "@anvia/core/evals";
+
+await runEvalCli({
+  name: "support-basic-metrics",
+  cases: [
+    {
+      id: "refund-window",
+      input: "When can I request a refund?",
+      expected: "Refunds are available for 30 days.",
+    },
+    {
+      id: "wrong-refund-window",
+      input: "Negative control: when can I request a refund?",
+      expected: "Refunds are available for 30 days.",

+  metrics: [exactMatch(), contains({ expected: ({ case: testCase }) => "30 days" })],
+  expectations: {
+    outcomes: { "wrong-refund-window": { exact_match: "fail", contains: "fail" } },
+  },
+  exitCode: true,
+});
+```
+
+## Output
+
+Every behavior claim needs a case. Prefer cheap deterministic metrics; spend
+LLM-judge budget where wording varies. Point to the relevant reference file
+instead of pasting its contents into chat.

+# LLM Judges
+
+Use judges when wording varies but meaning is checkable — policy compliance,
+tone, grading scales. Judges need a model and explicit pass criteria.
+
+```ts
+import { llmJudge, llmScore } from "@anvia/core/evals";
+
+llmJudge({
+  model,
+  schema: z.object({ passed: z.boolean(), reason: z.string() }),
+  passes: (judgment) => judgment.passed,
+  instructions:
+    "Decide whether the output satisfies the expected support policy. Return passed and a short reason.",
+});
+llmScore({
+  model,
+  threshold: 0.8,
+  criteria: [
+    "The output answers the user's question directly.",
+    "The output matches the expected support policy.",
+    "The output does not add unsupported policy details.",
+  ],
+});
+```
+
+## RAG quality metrics
+
+Cases carry `context` and `retrievalContext`; the metrics check grounding:
+
+```ts
+import { answerRelevancy, faithfulness, hallucination, gEval } from "@anvia/core/evals";
+
+answerRelevancy({ model: judgeModel, threshold: 0.8 });
+faithfulness({ model: judgeModel, threshold: 0.8 });
+hallucination({ model: judgeModel, threshold: 0.1 }); // lower is better — note the direction
+gEval({
+  name: "correctness",
+  model: judgeModel,
+  evaluationParams: ["actualOutput", "expectedOutput"],
+  evaluationSteps: [
+    "Check whether the answer preserves the expected refund window.",
+    "Allow different wording when the policy meaning is unchanged.",
+  ],
+  threshold: 0.8,
+});
+```
+
+Related: `promptAlignment`, `jsonCorrectness`, `abstention`, `summarization` for
+specialized outputs; `turnRelevancy` and `knowledgeRetention` for conversations
+(see the cookbook's conversation-quality example).
+
+## Rules
+
+- Pin the judge model (`modelId`) — a silently upgraded judge re-grades history.
+- Prefer a different (usually stronger) model for judging than for generating;
+  self-judging inflates scores.
+- `threshold` direction matters: most metrics pass at/above it, `hallucination`
+  passes at/below it.
+- Keep judge `instructions` / `criteria` / `evaluationSteps` in the eval file
+  under version control — they are part of the test, not ambient prompt text.

+      testCase.id === "billing-owner" ? "Workspace owners" : "30 days",
+  }),
+  notContains({ expected: "90 days" }), // forbid known-bad phrases

+- `expected` (and `actual`) accept selector functions over
+  `{ suiteName, case, output, signal }` — reach per-case metadata as
+  `case.metadata`. Use them to vary expectations per case instead of writing one
+  metric per case.
+- `containsAll` / `containsAny` check multi-fragment outputs; `maxLength` and
+  `requiredFields` guard shape for structured outputs.
+- `defineMetric` builds custom metrics when nothing fits — keep the metric pure
+  (input, output, expected in; outcome out) so results stay reproducible.
+
+## Agent outputs
+
+Metrics work over any target output. For agents, project the response first:
+
+```ts
+contains<string, AgentResponse, string>({ actual: ({ output }) => output.output });
+exactMatch<string, AgentResponse, string>({
+  name: "not_blank",
+  actual: ({ output }) => output.output.trim().length > 0,
+  expected: true,
+});
+```
+
+Always include a not-blank style metric for agent targets — an empty output
+passing every content metric is the classic false green.
