Bots

The bot stack is three pieces: @copilotkit/bot (core runtime), a platform adapter (e.g. @copilotkit/bot-slack), and an AG-UI agent — any CopilotKit runtime or compatible backend. Plug them together with createBot and you get a bot that streams agent replies into the platform, handles interactive buttons, and — once you add a store — survives restarts and spans multiple instances.
