+The `variant` prop controls the visual style of the autocomplete input. Available variants: `outlined` (default), `soft`, `solid`, `plain`.

-### Option Groups
+## Colors
+
+The `color` prop changes the color scheme. Available colors: `primary`, `neutral`, `danger`, `success`, `warning`.
+
+```tsx
+<Stack gap={2} p={2}>
+  {colors.map(color => <Autocomplete key={color} color={color} options={sampleOptions} defaultValue="Apple" label={color} sx={{
+    maxWidth: 300
+  }} />)}
+</Stack>
+```
+
+## States
+
+Autocomplete supports several form states for different interaction contexts.
+
+### Disabled
+
+A disabled autocomplete cannot be focused or interacted with. Use for fields that are temporarily unavailable.
+
+### Read Only
+
+A read-only autocomplete can be focused and its value copied, but cannot be changed. Use when a value should be visible but not editable.
+
+### Error
+
+Set `error` along with `helperText` to indicate validation failures.
+
+### Required
+
+Set `required` to mark the field as required in a form.
+
+```tsx
+<Stack gap={3} p={2} sx={{
+  maxWidth: 300
+}}>
+<Autocomplete label="Disabled" options={sampleOptions} defaultValue="Apple" disabled />
+<Autocomplete label="Read Only" options={sampleOptions} defaultValue="Banana" readOnly />
+<Autocomplete label="Error" options={sampleOptions} error helperText="This field is required" />
+<Autocomplete label="Required" options={sampleOptions} required placeholder="Select a fruit..." />
+</Stack>
+```
+
+## Free Solo
+
+The `freeSolo` prop allows users to type arbitrary values that are not in the options list. This is useful for inputs where the user can either pick a suggestion or enter a custom value.
+
+> ⚠️ **Known limitation**: The component's internal `handleChange` accesses `newValue.value`, which is `undefined` for raw strings in freeSolo mode. Typed arbitrary values may not propagate correctly through `onChange`. Consider using `onInputChange` as an alternative for capturing free-text input.
+
+```tsx
+<Stack gap={2} p={2} sx={{
+  maxWidth: 300
+}}>
+<Autocomplete label="Free Solo" options={sampleOptions} freeSolo placeholder="Type anything..." value={value} onChange={e => setValue(e.target.value)} />
+<Typography level="body-sm" textColor="text.tertiary">
+  Current value: {value ?? '(empty)'}
+</Typography>
+<Typography level="body-xs" textColor="text.tertiary">
+  Note: freeSolo allows arbitrary text input. However, the component&apos;s onChange handler accesses
+  newValue.value which is undefined for raw strings, so typed values may not propagate correctly.
+</Typography>
+</Stack>
+```
+
+## Disable Clearable
+
+Set `disableClearable` to hide the clear (X) button. This forces the user to always have a selection.
+
+```tsx
+<Autocomplete
+  options={sampleOptions}
+  defaultValue="Cherry"
+  disableClearable
+  label="Disable Clearable"
+  sx={{
+  maxWidth: 300
+}}
+/>
+```
+
+## Custom Texts
+
+Customize the messages shown when there are no matching options or while loading.
+
+```tsx
+<Stack gap={3} direction="row" p={2}>
+  <Autocomplete label="Custom No Options Text" options={[]} noOptionsText="No fruits found — try a different search" placeholder="Search fruits..." sx={{
+    minWidth: 280
+  }} />
+  <Autocomplete label="Custom Loading Text" options={[]} loading loadingText="Fetching fruits from the orchard..." placeholder="Loading fruits..." sx={{
+    minWidth: 280
+  }} />
+</Stack>
+```
+
+## Multiple Selection
+
+Enable `multiple` to allow selecting more than one option. Selected values are shown as chips.
+
+```tsx
+<div style={{
+  display: 'flex',
+  flexDirection: 'column',
+  gap: '10px'
+}}>
+<Autocomplete {...args} size="sm" />
+<Autocomplete {...args} size="md" />
+<Autocomplete {...args} size="lg" />
+</div>
+```
+
+### Limit Tags
+
+In multiple mode, use `limitTags` to control how many tags are visible before truncating. Use `filterSelectedOptions` to hide already-selected options from the dropdown.
+
+> 💡 The component uses a custom `renderTags` implementation. JoyUI's `limitTags` truncates the array passed to `renderTags`, so tags will be limited, but the default "+N more" indicator text may not appear.
+
+```tsx
+<Stack gap={3} p={2} sx={{
+  maxWidth: 400
+}}>
+<Stack gap={1}>
+  <Typography level="title-sm">limitTags=2</Typography>
+  <Autocomplete multiple options={sampleOptions} defaultValue={['Apple', 'Banana', 'Cherry', 'Date']} limitTags={2} label="Limit Tags" />

 ### ✅ Do
@@ -616,32 +856,21 @@ Autocomplete includes comprehensive accessibility features:

 2. **Show loading state during async operations**: Keep users informed

 // ✅ Good: Loading indicator while fetching
-<Autocomplete
-  options={options}
-  loading={isLoading}
-  placeholder={isLoading ? 'Loading...' : 'Search...'}
-/>

 3. **Use grouping for better organization**: Help users scan large lists

 // ✅ Good: Logical grouping
-<Autocomplete
-  options={allProducts}
-  groupBy={(product) => product.category}

+// ✅ Good: Show at most 3 tags, truncate the rest
