@json-render/codegen

0.6.0

Minor Changes

• 06b8745: Chat mode (inline GenUI), AI SDK integration, two-way binding, and expression-based visibility/props.

### New: Chat Mode (Inline GenUI)

Two generation modes: Generate (JSONL-only, the default) and Chat (text + JSONL inline). Chat mode lets AI respond conversationally with embedded UI specs — ideal for chatbots and copilot experiences.

• catalog.prompt({ mode: "chat" }) generates a chat-aware system prompt
• pipeJsonRender() server-side transform separates text from JSONL patches in a mixed stream
• createJsonRenderTransform() low-level TransformStream for custom pipelines

### New: AI SDK Integration

First-class Vercel AI SDK support with typed data parts and stream utilities.

• SpecDataPart type for data-spec stream parts (patch, flat, nested payloads)
• SPEC_DATA_PART / SPEC_DATA_PART_TYPE constants for type-safe part filtering
• createMixedStreamParser() for parsing mixed text + JSONL streams

### New: React Chat Hooks

• useChatUI() — full chat hook with message history, streaming, and spec extraction
• useJsonRenderMessage() — extract spec + text from a message's parts array
• buildSpecFromParts() / getTextFromParts() — utilities for working with AI SDK message parts
• useBoundProp() — two-way binding hook for $bindState / $bindItem expressions

### New: Two-Way Binding

Props can now use $bindState and $bindItem expressions for two-way data binding. The renderer resolves bindings and passes a bindings map to components, enabling write-back to state.

### New: Expression-Based Props and Visibility

Replaced string token rewriting with structured expression objects:

• Props: { $state: "/path" }, { $item: "field" }, { $index: true }
• Visibility: { $state: "/path", eq: "value" }, { $item: "active" }, { $index: true, gt: 0 }
• Logic: { $and: [...] }, { $or: [...] }, and implicit AND via arrays
• Comparison operators: eq, neq, gt, gte, lt, lte, not

### New: Utilities

• applySpecPatch() — typed convenience wrapper for applying a single patch to a Spec
• nestedToFlat() — convert nested tree specs to flat { root, elements } format
• resolveBindings() / resolveActionParam() — resolve binding paths and action params

### New: Chat Example

Full-featured chat example (examples/chat) with AI agent, tool calls (crypto, GitHub, Hacker News, weather, search), theme toggle, and streaming UI generation.

### Improved: Renderer

• ElementRenderer is now React.memo'd for better performance in repeat lists
• emit is always defined (never undefined) — no more optional chaining needed
• Action params are resolved through resolveActionParam supporting $item, $index, $state
• Repeat scope now passes the actual item object instead of requiring token rewriting

### Breaking Changes

• Expressions renamed: { $path } / { path } replaced by { $state }, { $item }, { $index }
• Visibility conditions: { path } → { $state }, { and/or/not } → { $and/$or } with not as operator flag
• DynamicValue: { path: string } → { $state: string }
• Repeat field: repeat.path → repeat.statePath
• Action params: path → statePath in setState action params
• Provider props: actionHandlers → handlers on JSONUIProvider/ActionProvider
• Auth removed: AuthState type and { auth } visibility conditions removed — model auth as regular state
• Legacy catalog removed: createCatalog, generateCatalogPrompt, generateSystemPrompt, ComponentDefinition, CatalogConfig, SystemPromptOptions removed
• React exports removed: createRendererFromCatalog, rewriteRepeatTokens
• Codegen: traverseTree → traverseSpec, SpecVisitor → TreeVisitor
