For AI Agents
Hand your agent this brief or the ReUI MCP, not a screenshot. Installs with a ReUI Pro or Ultimate license.
Best for: Replies as Frame receipts with model, latency and token count in the header and a tool trace, figure row or patch summary under the prose
When to use
- A full page assistant chat, new chat welcome screen or 2 model comparison inside an AI product
- A copilot docked beside the page it works on, or opened from a launcher in the page corner
- Answers that show the work behind them: sources read, tool steps, plans to approve and run cost
When not to use
- A transcript with a starter rail, a context window meter and an extended thinking toggle: use the Copilot Shell block
- A table of a run's MCP tool calls by server, with the refused scope to grant: use the MCP Call Audit block
- The product layout around the chat: a sidebar of threads, workspaces and account menus: use the App Shell blocks
- A plain overlay chat panel opened from a button, with suggestion chips and a composer: use the Sheet blocks
- A highlighted snippet with a filename header and copy button, outside any conversation: use the Code Block component

Shadcn Answer Receipts Block
AI chat stage with framed answer receipts on a live dot field. Part of the ReUI Shadcn AI & Agents AI Chat blocks collection.
A self contained chat surface floating on an animated dot field. Asks stay bubbles while every reply renders as a framed receipt carrying the run behind it, a tool trace, a metric row or a code patch, with model, latency and token cost in the chrome bar. Streaming, stop, retry, thread switching and a scoped source picker are all live.
It is composed from Badge, Bubble, Button, Dropdown Menu, Empty, Field, Frame, Input Group, and more, so every part of it is a primitive you can restyle with your own design tokens.
What You Can Build With the Answer Receipts Block
- Install it with the ReUI registry command in the toolbar above, then swap the placeholder content, data wiring, and business logic for your own.
- Compare it across all eight ReUI styles and both the Base UI and Radix bases in the customizer before committing to one direction.
- Combine it with the other Shadcn AI & Agents AI Chat blocks to assemble a full screen instead of a single section.
