Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

suggestions-development scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 1mo ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

Suggestions development guide

Summary

CopilotKit comes with suggestions behavior that allows an LLM generate (or the developer to statically program) suggestions that appear in the UI. When clicked, these suggestions will add a message. The logic for suggestions is currently divided between Headless UI or our Prebuilt components.

The suggestions system includes intelligent streaming validation, debouncing, and robust error handling to ensure reliable performance and prevent infinite retry loops.

Prebuilt components (CopilotChat)

The CopilotChat component has a suggestions prop that controls suggestion behavior:

  • "auto" (default) - suggestions are generated automatically at the start of a chat and after every turn
  • "manual" - suggestions will only be shown via setSuggestions or generateSuggestions from the useCopilotChat hook
  • SuggestionItem[] - an array of static suggestion items to be used as suggestions always

The system automatically handles debouncing and cooldowns to prevent excessive API calls. It also waits for useCopilotChatSuggestions hooks to register their configuration before generating initial suggestions.

Headless UI (useCopilotChat)

The useCopilotChat hook provides programmatic control over suggestions:

  • suggestions - current suggestion array
  • setSuggestions - manually set suggestions
  • generateSuggestions - trigger AI generation
  • resetSuggestions - clear all suggestions
  • isLoadingSuggestions - loading state

Users can configure suggestions via useCopilotChatSuggestions hook which registers configuration that the auto-generation system uses.

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
