React-to-Vue Parity Guide (@copilotkit/vue)

This document is the living parity map for the Vue port. Keep it updated whenever React parity work lands in packages/vue.

Scope and source of truth

  • Scope: packages/vue/** only.
  • Canonical source: packages/react-core/, packages/react-ui/, packages/react-textarea/.
  • Goal: semantic parity plus high discoverability.
  • Current priority: package-only parity. Avoid upstream/shared changes outside the Vue package until the Vue port is ready to merge.

Package boundary and documentation placement

  • @copilotkit/vue follows the same single-package direction as @copilotkit/react.
  • Core hooks/providers/types and UI-facing rendering primitives should live in this package.
  • Keep scope aligned with React's package surface; avoid introducing a parallel vue-ui package split.
  • Do not add Vue-only hook/component pages to the shared docs/ V2 reference unless the repository adopts an explicit Vue section there.
  • Keep user-facing package usage and API docs in README.md.
  • Keep user-facing visual docs/examples in examples/v2/vue/storybook/**.
  • Keep parity policy, translation rules, checklist, and the living React-to-Vue matrix in this file.
  • Treat Storybook/demo parity as follow-up work outside this package unless the task explicitly enters a repo-wide parity phase.

API compatibility policy

  • Keep public API names and shapes as close to React as possible unless this document defines an intentional Vue divergence.
  • If Vue requires a difference, choose the smallest possible divergence and document it here.
  • Prefer explicit type exports from .ts files and re-export from package barrels.
  • Keep provider/hook/type barrels aligned with React export intent.

Translation decision tree

Use this decision rule for every React feature:

  1. If the React surface is headless/data-oriented: Port as a Vue composable/provider/type with near-identical runtime semantics.
  2. If the React surface is render-bridge oriented (render* arrays or useRender* hooks): Translate to Vue composable state plus slot-based rendering at chat/view boundaries.
  3. Keep behavior parity even when API shape differs: Preserve matching precedence, fallback behavior, lifecycle semantics, and edge-case handling.

Near-100% translation rule

Agents must classify each React feature and its tests before porting.

When a feature is near-100% translatable

A React feature/test is near-100% translatable when all of the following are true:

  1. The Vue public API can keep the same conceptual surface with no meaningful API redesign.
  2. The runtime behavior, precedence rules, lifecycle semantics, and error handling can be preserved directly.
  3. The implementation boundary is still recognizable in the same package area and file structure.
  4. The tests can exercise the same behavior without replacing the core assertion model with Vue-specific customization mechanics such as slots, emits, or different component boundaries.

Examples usually include:

  • headless composables
  • provider behavior
  • core state/lifecycle integration tests
  • behavior where Vue is only a framework translation, not an API redesign

Required rules for near-100% translatable work

If a feature is near-100% translatable, follow these rules strictly:

  1. Mirror the React implementation shape as closely as Vue allows without degrading Vue correctness.
  2. Mirror file names and suite boundaries one-to-one where practical.
  3. Keep describe blocks and test case names word-for-word identical to React for the matching cases.
  4. Do not add Vue-only wording, regroup cases, or broaden/narrow scope in the mirrored subset.
  5. Port the same behavioral assertions first; only then add minimal Vue harness glue needed to execute them.
  6. If React has a dedicated feature test file, do not hide the Vue port inside a broader generic test file.
  7. Mirror test approach and depth, not only test names:
    • same system boundary (CopilotChat flow vs renderer-only unit boundary)
    • same trigger path (user interaction + streamed events vs direct prop injection)
    • same assertion depth (appearance/disappearance, error paths, precedence/fallback checks)
  8. If the Vue suite keeps React test names but validates a different boundary or shallower behavior, it must be marked partial in the matrix and treated as incomplete parity work.

This rule exists to maximize discoverability. Someone reading the React package should be able to find the Vue counterpart immediately in both implementation and tests.

When a feature is not near-100% translatable

A feature is not near-100% translatable when one or more of these are true:

  1. React relies on a render-prop, render-hook, JSX callback, or component composition pattern that Vue should expose through slots or a different public boundary.
  2. Matching React literally would create a non-idiomatic or unstable Vue API.
  3. The same behavior must be preserved, but the test needs a different assertion boundary because Vue exposes the feature through slots, emits, or a different component split.

In those cases:

  1. Preserve behavioral parity, not literal API parity.
  2. Keep the React counterpart obvious through naming, file placement, and explicit matrix mapping.
  3. Document the divergence in this file.
  4. Discuss the divergence with the user before introducing a new or expanded Vue-specific API translation.

If an agent is unsure whether a feature belongs in the near-100% bucket, the default action is to discuss it with the user before proceeding.

Architectural decision: Render APIs -> Slots

Vue intentionally keeps slots as the primary customization model. For render bridges, the mirror strategy is deterministic slot translation at chat view boundaries, with a small number of approved secondary programmatic APIs where strict parity requires framework-managed registration semantics.

Translation map

React surfaceVue surface
renderToolCalls / useRenderToolCall specific tool renderer#tool-call-<toolName>
renderToolCalls wildcard renderer (name: "*" )#tool-call
renderActivityMessages specific activity renderer#activity-<activityType>
renderActivityMessages fallback renderer#activity-message
renderCustomMessages (position: "before")#message-before or provider renderCustomMessages
renderCustomMessages (position: "after")#message-after or provider renderCustomMessages

Deterministic rules

  1. Keep precedence equivalent to React: specific match first, fallback second.
  2. Keep status semantics equivalent for tools: inProgress -> executing -> complete.
  3. Keep built-in MCP apps fallback behavior: if no matching slot handles mcp-apps, render MCPAppsActivityRenderer.
  4. Keep built-in A2UI fallback behavior: if no matching slot handles a2ui-surface and the runtime reports a2uiEnabled: true, render A2UISurfaceActivityRenderer.
  5. Keep slot payloads stable and parity-tested against React behavior, not component internals.
  6. Keep public Vue interaction APIs idiomatic: use emits for component-level UI interactions such as @submit-message, @input-change, @select-suggestion, @edit-message, @switch-to-branch, @thumbs-up, @thumbs-down, @read-aloud, and @regenerate.
  7. Keep slot payload actions imperative: use slot payload callbacks such as onCopy, onEdit, goPrev, goNext, and onSubmitMessage for slotted control surfaces.
  8. Only keep public callback props for true command-style flows that must be awaited by the child. Current exception: CopilotChatView.onFinishTranscribeWithAudio.
  9. If a programmatic renderer registration path is used, prefer Vue SFC/components over handwritten h(...) render functions when either can express the same behavior.
  10. Keep slots as the primary public customization mechanism. Component-based registered renderers are acceptable for programmatic registration, but they do not replace the slot-first model.
  11. renderCustomMessages is an approved secondary provider API in Vue because ordered multi-renderer registration and agent-scoped precedence cannot be expressed honestly through a single slot function alone.

This is a constraint for future parity work: new React render-hook behavior should be mirrored by extending slot contracts, not by re-introducing provider render props in Vue.

Architectural decision: Render hooks -> Composable state + slots

Vue also diverges intentionally from React for render-oriented hooks that mix behavior with a render callback.

Rule

  • If a React hook is headless/data-oriented, mirror it as a normal Vue composable with near-identical semantics.
  • If a React hook exists primarily to bridge stateful behavior into rendering, translate it into:
    • a Vue composable that owns the behavior/state machine
    • slot/template rendering at the chat/component boundary

This preserves semantic parity with React while avoiding a Vue API that requires userland render functions or TSX for common usage.

Examples

  • Keep as composables: useAgent, useAgentContext, useFrontendTool, useHumanInTheLoop, useSuggestions, useConfigureSuggestions, useThreads.
  • Translate with this recipe: useInterrupt.
  • useRenderTool, useDefaultRenderTool, and useComponent are supported in Vue as secondary programmatic APIs; keep slots as the primary customization surface.

Design constraints

  1. The composable owns subscription, filtering, preprocessing, pending state, and imperative actions such as resume/resolve.
  2. In-chat presentation should be expressed through named/scoped slots on Vue chat components.
  3. External/manual placement may expose reactive state or renderable refs from the composable when needed.
  4. Do not require Vue consumers to write h(...) render functions or TSX for the primary usage path.
  5. Keep divergence minimal and explicit: runtime semantics should still match React.

Vue-specific translation principles

  • Providers:
    • use default slots by default
    • preserve React provider semantics for inheritance, precedence, and defaults
  • Reactivity:
    • prefer safe, explicit reactivity over clever shortcuts
    • avoid passing Vue reactive proxies into APIs that clone/serialize unless normalized
  • Hook dependencies:
    • use Vue WatchSource-based dependencies to mirror React deps behavior
  • Tool rendering:
    • preserve wildcard, specific, and agent-scoped semantics from React
    • keep slots as the primary public customization model
    • keep raw render functions mainly for renderer-bridge glue or places where template/SFC conversion is genuinely awkward

Discoverability and naming policy

Keep React-to-Vue mapping obvious for both implementation and tests.

  1. Mirror React file names and folder locations where semantics align.
  2. For integration-style parity suites, use *.e2e.test.ts in Vue when React uses *.e2e.test.tsx.
  3. When Vue mechanics force a different boundary (for example hook -> slot component), keep one primary counterpart and map it explicitly in the matrix below.
  4. Do not hide React feature-specific behavior inside broad generic Vue tests if React has a dedicated suite.
  5. For near-100% translatable suites, preserve React describe/it wording exactly for the mirrored cases.

Testing and alignment

  • Follow an integration-first strategy using real CopilotKitCore behavior where practical.
  • Maintain parity test coverage for:
    • providers (CopilotKitProvider, CopilotChatConfigurationProvider)
    • hooks (useAgent, useAgentContext, useSuggestions, useConfigureSuggestions, useFrontendTool, useHumanInTheLoop)
    • type helpers (defineToolCallRenderer)
  • Keep shared test utilities for agent simulation and provider mounting to reduce drift and duplication.
  • Keep Vue src/__tests__/utils/test-helpers.ts aligned with React helper exports for framework-agnostic factories/scenario helpers.
  • Keep Vue scheduler-flush helpers (waitForAgentRunSubscription, emitAgentEventAndFlush, completeAgentAndFlush) as explicit additive adapters; do not hide framework flush inside parity event factories.
  • In this package phase, do not add a CI parity-enforcement check for helper export drift.
  • Parity requirement is semantic, not snapshot or structure identity.
  • Treat React StrictMode identity semantics as framework-specific: Vue parity targets lifecycle behavior invariants under rerender/remount, not same-instance identity across unmount/remount.
  • Keep bundling and externalization intent aligned with React package behavior.
  • Keep shared dependency versions aligned with sibling packages (core, react, angular) unless an intentional repo-wide upgrade occurs.
  • Avoid introducing dynamic type-import workarounds when a direct typed import pattern used by React is available.
  • For web inspector behavior, mirror React's runtime loading strategy and use test-time mocks in Vue tests.
  • For icons, import only from src/components/icons/index.ts and do not import from lucide-vue-next directly in feature components.

Test translation policy

Before writing or editing Vue parity tests:

  1. Find the primary React counterpart test file.
  2. Decide whether the feature is near-100% translatable using the rule above.
  3. If yes, port the matching cases with:
    • the same suite names and test names
    • the same test approach (system boundary and trigger flow)
    • comparable assertion depth
  4. If not, keep the behavior coverage equivalent but use Vue-native boundaries and call out the divergence in the matrix or notes.
  5. If API divergence seems necessary or likely, stop and discuss with the user before extending the Vue public surface.
  6. Never mark a row matched when wording is mirrored but approach/depth differs materially from the React counterpart.
  7. For near-100% translatable suites, do not introduce fallback test variants (for example renderer-only mounts) just to make the suite pass if React validates the behavior through chat/integration flow.
  8. Failures must stay explicit: if strict parity tests fail, keep the parity approach and report the failing cases; do not weaken scope, rename tests, or switch to a shallower boundary as a workaround.
  9. For strict parity/e2e suites, prefer @testing-library/vue query style (screen.getBy*, screen.findBy*, waitFor) so the Vue assertion model mirrors React Testing Library usage closely.
  10. In strict parity/e2e suites, avoid Vue Test Utils wrapper.get(...) as the primary assertion/query style unless there is a documented blocker.
  11. When a parity test harness can be written with Vue templates/SFC components, do not introduce handwritten h(...) render-function harnesses.
  12. When Vue-specific coverage is needed in an otherwise strict parity file, keep all React-mirrored cases first (same order and wording), then place Vue-only cases in a separate trailing describe(...) block labeled as Vue-specific semantics.
  13. Do not emulate React StrictMode by introducing runtime remount caches in Vue production code; validate Vue rerender/remount lifecycle invariants directly in Vue tests.

Slot-system suite translation policy

React slot-system suites need a separate rule from near-100% translatable suites.

Fixed architectural decision

  • Vue stays slot-first for UI customization surfaces.
  • Do not add React-style string/object/component override props to Vue components just to port React slot tests literally.
  • Do not add nested prop-drill customization APIs to mirror React slot trees.
  • Do not add React-style activity renderer registration props where Vue already uses named/scoped slots.

Translation goal

For React slot/customization suites, the parity target is:

  • same feature coverage
  • same behavioral intent
  • same discoverability through dedicated counterpart files
  • obvious React-to-Vue case mapping
  • Vue-native slot/emits/callback mechanics

It is not:

  • literal API-shape parity
  • fake React-style override props in Vue tests

Required rules for slot-suite ports

  1. Keep a dedicated Vue counterpart file when React has a dedicated slot/customization suite.
  2. Keep the React counterpart obvious through matching file names, top-level suite titles, and case ordering.
  3. Translate each React case by feature, not by API shape:
    • React prop/class override case -> Vue named/scoped slot case for the same visible surface
    • React callback/onClick plumbing case -> Vue slot payload callback or emit case for the same interaction
    • React precedence/fallback case -> Vue slot precedence/fallback case at the equivalent boundary
  4. Preserve one React case -> one Vue case whenever practical. Do not collapse multiple React cases into one broad Vue test.
  5. Keep React describe/it wording when it remains honest at the Vue slot boundary.
  6. If wording must change because the React name is API-shape-specific, change it minimally and keep the same order so side-by-side mapping stays obvious.
  7. Add a short mapping comment only when the React -> Vue translation would not be obvious from structure alone.
  8. Do not mark a slot-suite row matched if the Vue file is broader, shallower, or validates a different feature than the React counterpart, even if the file names align.

Practical translation recipe

Use this default recipe for slot-only Vue counterparts:

  1. Start from the React dedicated suite.
  2. Keep the same file name in Vue where practical (*.slots.e2e.test.ts).
  3. Keep the same top-level describe(...).
  4. Port cases in the same order.
  5. Replace React override-prop setup with Vue slot setup for the same customization surface.
  6. Keep assertions focused on the same user-visible outcome or interaction contract.
  7. Record the mapping in the matrix/backlog if the file is still partial.

Test script parity

Vue package scripts should mirror React command surface for tests:

  • test
  • test:watch
  • test:coverage
  • test:ui

This phase does not enforce coverage thresholds.

Parity workflow and completion criteria

When React parity work is ported:

  1. Identify the impacted React implementation and tests.
  2. Apply the translation rules and constraints in this document.
  3. Update the Vue implementation inside packages/vue/src/**.
  4. Add or update equivalent Vue tests with parity-friendly discoverability.
  5. Update this matrix in the same change.
  6. If divergence is intentional, document it here.

For package-level parity work, all items below are required before a ported React feature is considered complete in this package:

  1. API parity: Vue public surface is present in packages/vue/src/** and exports are wired through the relevant package barrels.
  2. Functional parity: Runtime behavior and edge-case semantics match React intent, with only minimal documented divergence.
  3. Test parity: Equivalent behavior coverage exists in Vue tests, including lifecycle and error/edge paths.
  4. Code-level docs parity: New public hooks/composables include JSDoc on implementation with at least one usage example.
  5. Package docs parity: User-facing Vue notes remain documented in README.md.

Out-of-package follow-up, when the repo enters repo-wide parity work:

  1. Visual parity: Add or update the corresponding Vue Storybook story for user-visible features.
  2. Demo/example parity: Add or update runnable Vue demo/example usage for user-visible features.

React -> Vue Parity Matrix

Status values:

  • matched: equivalent behavior and tests exist.
  • partial: some behavior/tests exist, but parity depth is incomplete.
  • intentional-divergence: API shape differs by design, behavior parity still required.

Current snapshot: mapped React->Vue counterpart rows are either matched or intentional-divergence.

Mirrors React case wording 1:1 across pin-to-send / pin-to-bottom / none / boolean back-compat, validating the data-pin-to-send-spacer element only renders for autoScroll === "pin-to-send". Trailing Vue-specific block proves LastUserMessageContext reactivity (provide(LastUserMessageKey, ref(...))) drives usePinToSend updates the same way <Provider value={...}> rerender does in React.

Mirrors React case wording 1:1 across overlay positioning, attachment-queue DOM order above the input, welcome-screen exclusion, and the paddingBottom = inputContainerHeight + 32 formula. Vue swaps a few React-only testids (copilot-send-buttoncopilot-chat-input-send, copilot-attachment-queuecopilot-chat-attachment-queue) where the React testid does not exist on Vue components.
normalize-auto-scroll.test.tsnormalize-auto-scroll.test.tsmatchedDedicated strict counterpart for the N2 AutoScrollMode helper. Mirrors React case wording 1:1 across all 7 cases (default, boolean back-compat, string passthrough, unknown-string fallback).

Verifies padding-bottom: var(--copilotkit-license-banner-offset, 0px) is applied on the [data-testid="copilot-chat-input-container"] when positioning="absolute", when bottomAnchored=true with positioning="static", and is not applied for the welcome-screen static input. Also asserts CopilotChatView's main run-state input forwards bottomAnchored=true.

Mirrors React's InlineFeatureWarning featureName="Chat" / "Sidebar" / "Popup" rendering and console.warn('[CopilotKit] Warning: "<feature>" feature is not licensed. Visit copilotkit.ai/pricing') semantics. The default permissive createLicenseContextValue(null) path renders no warning; an explicit gated LicenseContextKey provided inside CopilotKitProvider (which itself re-provides the permissive default) renders the inline warning + emits the matching console warning.

use-agent-throttle.test.tsxuse-agent-throttle.test.tsmatchedDedicated strict counterpart now mirrors the full React throttle/scheduling matrix, including unthrottled immediate message updates, state/run-status microtask batching, trailing-edge timing semantics, cleanup cases, and provider defaultThrottleMs coverage. Post-shared-core alignment it also covers: onStateChanged throttled in the same shared window as onMessagesChanged, OnStateChanged-only subscriptions firing on the leading edge, invalid throttleMs warnings sourced from CopilotKitCore.subscribeToAgentWithOptions, and onRunErrorEvent bypassing the shared window.
use-agent-context-timing.e2e.test.tsxuse-agent-context-timing.e2e.test.tsmatchedDedicated strict counterpart exists and now passes with React-matching follow-up context behavior ({"spicy":false} on the second run).
use-agent-error-state.test.tsxuse-agent-error-state.test.tsmatchedDedicated strict counterpart now matches React error-state behavior by returning a provisional runtime agent instead of throwing when runtime sync fails.
use-agent-stability.test.tsxuse-agent-stability.test.tsmatchedDedicated strict counterpart now matches React provisional-agent caching semantics across Disconnected->Connecting->Connected transitions.
use-agent-thread-isolation.test.tsxuse-agent-thread-isolation.test.tsmatchedDedicated strict counterpart now mirrors React thread-clone isolation semantics, cache invalidation on registry replacement, and provisional->real clone transitions.
use-attachments.test.tsxuse-attachments.test.tsmatchedDedicated strict counterpart validates stable attachment action identities across rerenders/config identity changes, latest-config reads without stale closures, and empty-queue consumeAttachments() no-op semantics.
use-configure-suggestions.e2e.test.tsxuse-configure-suggestions.e2e.test.ts (+ use-configure-suggestions.test.ts)matchedDedicated strict e2e counterpart exists and now passes the full React-mirrored suite, including deferred reload behavior during in-progress runs.
use-frontend-tool-available.test.tsxuse-frontend-tool-available.test.tsmatchedDedicated strict counterpart exists with React-matching suite and case wording.
use-frontend-tool.e2e.test.tsxuse-frontend-tool.e2e.test.ts (+ use-frontend-tool.test.ts)matchedDedicated strict e2e counterpart exists and now passes the full React-mirrored suite, including unmount, override, and error-propagation coverage.
use-interrupt.test.tsxuse-interrupt.test.tsmatchedDedicated strict counterpart includes the full React case set and naming, including thenable handler support and latest-interrupt-wins behavior.
use-render-tool.test.tsxuse-render-tool.test.tsmatchedDedicated Vue counterpart exists with React-matching suite/case wording and matching Standard Schema/Zod regression coverage via dedicated counterparts.
use-default-render-tool.test.tsxuse-default-render-tool.test.tsmatchedDedicated Vue counterpart exists with React-matching suite/case wording.
use-component.test.tsxuse-component.test.tsmatchedDedicated Vue counterpart exists with React-matching suite/case wording and matching Standard Schema/Zod regression coverage via dedicated counterparts.
standard-schema.test.tsxstandard-schema.test.tsmatchedDedicated Vue counterpart exists with React-matching vendor coverage (zod, valibot, arktype) and matching suite/case wording.
standard-schema-types.test.tsxstandard-schema-types.test.tsmatchedDedicated Vue counterpart exists with React-matching vendor type-inference coverage and matching suite/case wording.
zod-regression.test.tsxzod-regression.test.tsmatchedDedicated Vue counterpart exists with React-matching suite/case wording and coverage boundaries.
use-human-in-the-loop.e2e.test.tsxuse-human-in-the-loop.e2e.test.ts (+ use-human-in-the-loop.test.ts)matchedDedicated strict e2e counterpart exists and now passes full React-mirrored HITL status, interaction, registration, and reconnection coverage.
use-suggestions.e2e.test.tsxuse-suggestions.e2e.test.ts (+ use-suggestions.test.ts)matchedDedicated strict e2e counterpart exists and passes the full mirrored React case set, including clear/reload/loading transitions.
use-threads.test.tsxuse-threads.test.tsmatchedDedicated strict counterpart preserves the full React case set and wording; Vue now also matches pagination naming (hasMoreThreads, isFetchingMoreThreads, fetchMoreThreads) and filtered public thread shape, with Vue-only reactivity coverage isolated in a trailing Vue-specific reactive semantics block.
use-keyboard-height.test.tsxuse-keyboard-height.test.tsmatchedDedicated strict counterpart mirrors the React useKeyboardHeight suite (Visual Viewport unavailable, open/close threshold at 150 px, resize + scroll updates, listener cleanup on unmount); Vue returns readonly refs with matching field names instead of a plain state object, and a chat-view-level integration assertion in CopilotChatView.slots.e2e.test.ts proves the translateY(-keyboardHeight) transform is forwarded through CopilotChatView.
use-katex-styles.test.tsxuse-katex-styles.test.tsmatchedDedicated strict counterpart mirrors the React useKatexStyles suite (dynamic-import success path, failure path with no throw, regression guard that CopilotChatAssistantMessage.vue no longer statically imports katex/dist/katex.min.css and now calls useKatexStyles()).
use-pin-to-send.test.tsxuse-pin-to-send.test.tsmatchedDedicated strict counterpart for the N2 usePinToSend parity package. Mirrors React case wording 1:1 across spacer height math (viewportHeight - bubbleHeight - topOffset), scrollTo offset (offsetTop - topOffset), shrink-only ResizeObserver semantics, and rAF cleanup on unmount. Vue uses provide(LastUserMessageKey, ref(...)) instead of LastUserMessageContext.Provider, and reuses the same jsdom rAF + height-mock harness as React.

Unmapped React Test Backlog

This backlog captures React tests that are intentionally out of scope or not yet represented by a Vue public surface. It is no longer a list of open strict-port test failures.

Backlog classification:

  • existing-unmapped: a Vue test file already exists, but the matrix does not yet audit/map it explicitly.
  • missing-parity: no Vue counterpart exists at the React test boundary yet.
  • intentional-divergence: React test targets a render-hook or API pattern that Vue should not port literally.
  • api-gap: Vue does not yet expose an equivalent package surface, so this is not a pure test-port task.
