hextaui-ai-prompt-input

chatminimal-flat

A client-side React prompt composer with context chips, model and agent selectors, search and thinking toggles, attachment and voice controls. It ships as a shadcn registry TSX block and depends on React, Next Image, Lucide icons, Tailwind utilities, shadcn UI primitives, and their Radix packages.

Verdict

A credible starting shell for a full AI composer, with responsive layout and useful interaction states. It needs a shadcn-style setup, real service wiring, and accessibility repairs before production, so it fits teams seeking a customizable scaffold rather than a finished input.

Use it if

  • You need a feature-rich AI chat composer and are prepared to connect its placeholder actions to real services.
  • Your app already uses Next.js, Tailwind, shadcn conventions, and the required UI primitives.
  • You want context selection, model choice, and responsive action menus in one adaptable starting point.

Skip it if

  • You need an accessible production control without first fixing the unnamed button and invalid ARIA usage found by the audit.
  • You need working upload, voice, or message delivery out of the box; the source leaves these as mock or console-only behavior.
  • You use a non-Next React stack and do not want to replace the Next Image dependency.
  • You want a lean text composer without the added menu, popover, select, toggle, tooltip, and icon dependencies.

In a non-shadcn project, add Tailwind and the expected theme tokens, configure the source alias and utility helper, install or recreate the button, card, textarea, dropdown, popover, select, toggle, and tooltip primitives with their Radix dependencies, add Lucide icons, and replace Next Image if the app is not on Next.js.
