KIT SDK

The KIT SDK (pkg/kit) lets you embed Kit's full agent capabilities — LLM interactions, tool execution, session management, streaming, hooks — into any Go application.

Installation

go get github.com/mark3labs/kit

Basic Usage

package main

import (
    "context"
    "fmt"
    "log"

    kit "github.com/mark3labs/kit/pkg/kit"
)

func main() {
    ctx := context.Background()

    // Create Kit instance with default configuration
    host, err := kit.New(ctx, nil)
    if err != nil {
        log.Fatal(err)
    }
    defer func() { _ = host.Close() }()

    // Send a prompt
    response, err := host.Prompt(ctx, "What is 2+2?")
    if err != nil {
        log.Fatal(err)
    }

    fmt.Println(response)
}

Configuration

The SDK behaves identically to the CLI:

  • Loads configuration from ~/.kit.yml by default
  • Creates default configuration if none exists
  • Respects all environment variables (KIT_*)
  • Uses the same defaults as the CLI
Options

You can override specific settings:

host, err := kit.New(ctx, &kit.Options{
    Model:        "ollama/llama3",            // Override model
    SystemPrompt: "You are a helpful bot",    // Override system prompt
    ConfigFile:   "/path/to/config.yml",      // Use specific config file
    MaxSteps:     10,                         // Override max steps
    Streaming:    true,                       // Enable streaming
    Quiet:        true,                       // Suppress debug output

    // Session options
    SessionPath:  "./session.jsonl",          // Open specific session
    Continue:     true,                       // Resume most recent session
    NoSession:    true,                       // Ephemeral mode

    // Tool options
    Tools:            []kit.Tool{kit.NewBashTool()}, // Replace default tool set
    ExtraTools:       []kit.Tool{myTool},            // Add alongside defaults
    DisableCoreTools: true,                        // Use no core tools (0 tools)

    // Configuration
    SkipConfig:   true,                        // Skip .kit.yml files (viper defaults + env vars still apply)

    // Compaction
    AutoCompact:  true,                       // Auto-compact near context limit

    // In-process MCP servers (map name → *kit.MCPServer)
    InProcessMCPServers: map[string]*kit.MCPServer{
        "docs": mcpSrv,
    },
})

Advanced Usage

With Tool Callbacks

Monitor tool execution in real-time:

unsub := host.OnToolCall(func(e kit.ToolCallEvent) {
    fmt.Printf("Calling tool: %s\n", e.ToolName)
})
defer unsub()

unsub2 := host.OnToolResult(func(e kit.ToolResultEvent) {
    if e.IsError {
        fmt.Printf("Tool %s failed: %s\n", e.ToolName, e.Result)
    } else {
        fmt.Printf("Tool %s succeeded\n", e.ToolName)
    }
})
defer unsub2()

unsub3 := host.OnStreaming(func(e kit.MessageUpdateEvent) {
    fmt.Print(e.Chunk)
})
defer unsub3()

response, err := host.Prompt(
    ctx,
    "List files in the current directory",
)
Dynamic MCP Server Management

Add, remove, and list MCP servers at runtime:

// Add an MCP server at runtime
n, err := host.AddMCPServer(ctx, "github", kit.MCPServerConfig{
    Command: "npx",
    Args:    []string{"-y", "@modelcontextprotocol/server-github"},
})
fmt.Printf("Loaded %d tools from MCP server\n", n)

// List connected MCP servers
for _, s := range host.ListMCPServers() {
    fmt.Printf("%s: %d tools\n", s.Name, s.ToolCount)
}

// Disconnect a server and remove its tools
host.RemoveMCPServer("github")
In-Process MCP Servers

Register mcp-go servers that run in the same process — no subprocess spawning, no network I/O. This is ideal for custom tool servers implemented in Go:

import (
    "github.com/mark3labs/mcp-go/mcp"
    "github.com/mark3labs/mcp-go/server"
)

// Create an mcp-go server with tools
mcpSrv := server.NewMCPServer("my-tools", "1.0.0",
    server.WithToolCapabilities(true),
)
mcpSrv.AddTool(mcp.NewTool("search_docs",
    mcp.WithDescription("Search documentation"),
    mcp.WithString("query", mcp.Required()),
), searchHandler)

// Option 1: At init time via Options
host, _ := kit.New(ctx, &kit.Options{
    InProcessMCPServers: map[string]*kit.MCPServer{
        "docs": mcpSrv,
    },
})

// Option 2: At runtime
n, err := host.AddInProcessMCPServer(ctx, "docs", mcpSrv)
fmt.Printf("Loaded %d tools from in-process server\n", n)

Kit does not take ownership of the server's lifecycle — the caller is responsible for any cleanup. In-process server tools are prefixed the same way as external MCP servers (e.g. "docs__search_docs").

MCP Prompts

MCP servers can expose prompt templates via the MCP prompts capability. Kit exposes these through the SDK:

// List prompts from all connected MCP servers
prompts := host.ListMCPPrompts()
for _, p := range prompts {
    fmt.Printf("%s/%s: %s\n", p.Server, p.Name, p.Description)
}

// Get a specific prompt with arguments
msg, err := host.GetMCPPrompt(ctx, "server-name", "prompt-name", map[string]string{
    "topic": "concurrency",
})
Session Management

Maintain conversation context:

// First message
host.Prompt(ctx, "My name is Alice")

// Second message (remembers context)
response, _ := host.Prompt(ctx, "What's my name?")
// Response: "Your name is Alice"

// Clear conversation history
host.ClearSession()

Re-exported Types

The SDK re-exports types so you don't need direct internal imports:

// Message types
kit.Message, kit.MessageRole, kit.ContentPart
kit.TextContent, kit.ReasoningContent, kit.ToolCall, kit.ToolResult, kit.Finish
kit.RoleUser, kit.RoleAssistant, kit.RoleTool, kit.RoleSystem

// LLM types — concrete Kit-owned structs, no external library dependency
kit.LLMMessage      // {Role LLMMessageRole, Content string}
kit.LLMMessageRole  // "user" | "assistant" | "system" | "tool"
kit.LLMUsage        // {InputTokens, OutputTokens, TotalTokens, ...}
kit.LLMResponse     // {Content, FinishReason, Usage}
kit.LLMFilePart     // {Filename, Data []byte, MediaType}

// MCP OAuth types
kit.MCPServer            // *server.MCPServer for in-process MCP transport
kit.MCPServerConfig      // Configuration for an MCP server (stdio, SSE, or in-process)
kit.MCPAuthHandler       // Interface: handles user-facing OAuth authorization
kit.DefaultMCPAuthHandler // Port + callback-server mechanics; set OnAuthURL for presentation
kit.CLIMCPAuthHandler    // CLI wrapper: opens browser, prints status
kit.MCPTokenStore        // Persists OAuth tokens for a single MCP server
kit.MCPToken             // OAuth token (access token, refresh token, expiry)
kit.MCPTokenStoreFactory // Creates an MCPTokenStore for a given server URL

// Conversion helpers
msgs := kit.ConvertToLLMMessages(&msg)   // SDK Message → []LLMMessage
msg  := kit.ConvertFromLLMMessage(lMsg)  // LLMMessage  → SDK Message

Constants

View Source
const (
	ToolKindExecute  = "execute" // Shell execution (bash)
	ToolKindEdit     = "edit"    // File modification (edit, write)
	ToolKindRead     = "read"    // File reading (read, ls)
	ToolKindSearch   = "search"  // Content/file search (grep, find)
	ToolKindSubagent = "agent"   // Subagent spawning (subagent)
)

ToolKind constants classify what a tool does, enabling UIs to render appropriate visualizations (e.g. diff view for edit tools, command+output for execute tools) and file trackers to identify which results contain modifications.

View Source
const (
	// FinishReasonStop: the model produced a natural stop (e.g. stop sequence
	// or end-of-turn signal).
	FinishReasonStop = "stop"
	// FinishReasonLength: the model hit the configured max_output_tokens
	// budget. The response is truncated. Surface this to the user and
	// consider raising --max-tokens / KIT_MAX_TOKENS / modelSettings[...]
	// .maxTokens.
	FinishReasonLength = "length"
	// FinishReasonToolCalls: the model stopped to emit tool calls (normal
	// mid-turn state during agentic loops).
	FinishReasonToolCalls = "tool-calls"
	// FinishReasonContentFilter: the provider's safety filter stopped
	// generation.
	FinishReasonContentFilter = "content-filter"
	// FinishReasonError: the model stopped because of an error.
	FinishReasonError = "error"
	// FinishReasonOther: provider-specific reason that doesn't map to any of
	// the above.
	FinishReasonOther = "other"
	// FinishReasonUnknown: the provider didn't report a finish reason.
	FinishReasonUnknown = "unknown"
)

Finish reasons reported by the LLM provider on a completed turn. These mirror fantasy.FinishReason string values so comparisons against TurnEndEvent.StopReason / TurnResult.StopReason are stable across providers.

const (
	RoleUser      = message.RoleUser
	RoleAssistant = message.RoleAssistant
	RoleTool      = message.RoleTool
	RoleSystem    = message.RoleSystem
)
View Source
const (
	// LLMRoleUser identifies a user message.
	LLMRoleUser = fantasy.MessageRoleUser
	// LLMRoleAssistant identifies an assistant message.
	LLMRoleAssistant = fantasy.MessageRoleAssistant
	// LLMRoleSystem identifies a system message.
	LLMRoleSystem = fantasy.MessageRoleSystem
	// LLMRoleTool identifies a tool result message.
	LLMRoleTool = fantasy.MessageRoleTool
)

LLM role constants mirror the provider's role values under clean LLM-prefixed names.

Variables

View Source
var ErrMCPNoToken = transport.ErrNoToken

ErrMCPNoToken is the sentinel error that MCPTokenStore implementations should return from GetToken when no token is stored for the server. Callers can check for this with errors.Is.

View Source
var NewLLMSystemMessage = fantasy.NewSystemMessage

NewLLMSystemMessage constructs a system-role LLMMessage from one or more prompt strings.

View Source
var NewLLMUserMessage = fantasy.NewUserMessage

NewLLMUserMessage constructs a user-role LLMMessage with optional file attachments.

View Source
var WithWorkDir = core.WithWorkDir

WithWorkDir sets the working directory for file-based tools. If empty, os.Getwd() is used at execution time.

type BeforeCompactHook struct {
	// EstimatedTokens is the estimated token count of the conversation.
	EstimatedTokens int
	// ContextLimit is the model's context window size in tokens.
	ContextLimit int
	// UsagePercent is the fraction of context used (0.0–1.0).
	UsagePercent float64
	// MessageCount is the number of messages in the conversation.
	MessageCount int
	// IsAutomatic is true when compaction was triggered automatically.
	IsAutomatic bool
}

BeforeCompactHook is the input for hooks that fire before compaction runs.

	// The extension is responsible for generating a useful summary.
	// Ignored when Cancel is true.
	Summary string
}

BeforeCompactResult controls whether compaction proceeds. Extensions can cancel compaction or provide a custom summary that replaces the default LLM-generated one.

	ToolCallID string
	ToolName   string
	ToolArgs   string
}

BeforeToolCallHook is the input for hooks that fire before a tool executes.

	// RawParts contains the full typed content parts for structured access.
	// Only populated for message entries.
	RawParts []ContentPart
}

BranchEntry represents a single node in the conversation tree. This is a SDK-friendly struct (not the internal entry types).

type CLIMCPAuthHandler added in v0.39.0

type CLIMCPAuthHandler struct {

	// NotifyFunc, when set, is called with status messages instead of
	// writing to the writer. This allows the TUI to display system
	// messages in the chat stream. If nil, messages are written to w.
	NotifyFunc func(serverName, message string)
	// contains filtered or unexported fields
}

CLIMCPAuthHandler is the MCP OAuth handler for CLI/TUI consumers. It wraps a DefaultMCPAuthHandler and layers standard CLI behavior on top of the underlying transport mechanics:

  • Opens the authorization URL in the system browser
  • Prints status messages (or routes them to a TUI via [NotifyFunc])

Non-CLI consumers (web apps, daemons, custom TUIs) should not use this handler; implement MCPAuthHandler directly or configure a DefaultMCPAuthHandler with a custom OnAuthURL instead.

func NewCLIMCPAuthHandler added in v0.39.0

func NewCLIMCPAuthHandler() (*CLIMCPAuthHandler, error)

NewCLIMCPAuthHandler creates a CLI auth handler that prints status messages to stderr, opens the authorization URL in the system browser, and delegates the callback-server mechanics to a DefaultMCPAuthHandler.

func (*CLIMCPAuthHandler) Close added in v0.39.0

func (h *CLIMCPAuthHandler) Close() error

Close releases the inner handler's resources.

func (*CLIMCPAuthHandler) HandleAuth added in v0.39.0

func (h *CLIMCPAuthHandler) HandleAuth(ctx context.Context, serverName string, authURL string) (string, error)

HandleAuth delegates to the inner handler (which invokes OnAuthURL, runs the callback server, and returns the full callback URL) and emits a final success or failure notification.

func (*CLIMCPAuthHandler) RedirectURI added in v0.39.0

func (h *CLIMCPAuthHandler) RedirectURI() string

RedirectURI returns the OAuth redirect URI from the inner handler.

type CLIOptions added in v0.2.0

type CLIOptions struct {
	// MCPConfig is a pre-loaded MCP config. When set, LoadAndValidateConfig
	// is skipped during Kit creation.
	MCPConfig *config.Config
	// ShowSpinner shows a loading spinner for Ollama models.
	ShowSpinner bool
	// SpinnerFunc provides the spinner implementation (nil = no spinner).
	SpinnerFunc SpinnerFunc
	// UseBufferedLogger buffers debug messages for later display.
	UseBufferedLogger bool
	// ProgressReaderFunc wraps an io.Reader with a progress display for
	// long-running operations such as Ollama model pulls. The returned
	// io.ReadCloser must be closed when done. When nil, progress is not
	// displayed.
	ProgressReaderFunc func(io.Reader) io.ReadCloser
}

CLIOptions holds fields only relevant to the CLI binary. SDK users should not need these; they are separated to keep the main Options struct clean.

type CompactionEntry added in v0.42.0

type CompactionEntry struct {
	ID               string
	Summary          string
	FirstKeptEntryID string
	TokensBefore     int
	TokensAfter      int

	ReadFiles        []string
	ModifiedFiles    []string
	Timestamp        time.Time
}

type CompactionEvent

type CompactionEvent struct {
	Summary         string
	OriginalTokens  int
	CompactedTokens int
	MessagesRemoved int
	ReadFiles       []string

type Config

type Config = config.Config

Config represents the complete application configuration including MCP servers, model settings, UI preferences, and API credentials.

type ContentPart

type ContentPart = message.ContentPart

ContentPart is the marker interface for all message content block types.

type ContextFile

type ContextFile struct {
	Path    string // Absolute filesystem path.
	Content string // Full file content.
}

ContextFile represents a project context file (e.g. AGENTS.md) that was loaded during initialization and injected into the system prompt.

type ContextPrepareHook added in v0.3.0

type ContextPrepareHook struct {
	// Messages is the current context as LLM message objects.
	Messages []LLMMessage
}

ContextPrepareHook is the input for hooks that fire after the context window is assembled from the session tree (including compaction) and before the messages are sent to the LLM. Hooks can filter, reorder, or inject messages.

type ContextPrepareResult added in v0.3.0

type ContextPrepareResult struct {
	// Messages replaces the entire context window. If nil, the original
	// messages are used.
	Messages []LLMMessage
}

ContextPrepareResult can replace the context window.

type ContextStats

type ContextStats struct {
	EstimatedTokens int     // Estimated token count of the current conversation
	ContextLimit    int     // Model's context window size (tokens), 0 if unknown
	UsagePercent    float64 // Fraction of context used (0.0–1.0), 0 if limit unknown
	MessageCount    int     // Number of messages in the conversation
}

ContextStats contains current context usage information.

type CredentialManager

type CredentialManager = auth.CredentialManager

CredentialManager manages API keys and OAuth credentials.

func NewCredentialManager

func NewCredentialManager() (*CredentialManager, error)

NewCredentialManager creates a credential manager for secure storage and retrieval of authentication credentials.

type CredentialStore

type CredentialStore = auth.CredentialStore

CredentialStore holds all stored credentials for various providers.

type DefaultMCPAuthHandler added in v0.39.0

type DefaultMCPAuthHandler struct {

	// OnAuthURL, if set, is invoked exactly once per [HandleAuth] call with
	// the authorization URL the user must visit. This is where consumers
	// plug in their UX: open a browser, print to stderr, post to a TUI
	// stream, render a QR code, etc. The handler performs no I/O on the
	// URL itself; if OnAuthURL is nil the URL is silently dropped and the
	// user has no way to complete the flow.
	//
	// OnAuthURL is called synchronously before the handler blocks on the
	// callback. It must not block indefinitely — long-running work should
	// be dispatched to a goroutine.
	OnAuthURL func(serverName, authURL string)
	// contains filtered or unexported fields
}

DefaultMCPAuthHandler provides the transport mechanics of an OAuth flow — reserving a local TCP port and running a one-shot HTTP callback server — without making any user-experience decisions. It performs no browser opens, no printing, no TUI calls; consumers attach presentation by setting [DefaultMCPAuthHandler.OnAuthURL] or by wrapping the handler.

The handler eagerly reserves a TCP port on construction so [RedirectURI] is stable for the lifetime of the handler. Create instances with NewDefaultMCPAuthHandler (random port) or NewDefaultMCPAuthHandlerWithPort (explicit port). Always call DefaultMCPAuthHandler.Close when done to release the port.

func NewDefaultMCPAuthHandler added in v0.39.0

func NewDefaultMCPAuthHandler() (*DefaultMCPAuthHandler, error)

NewDefaultMCPAuthHandler creates a handler that listens on a random available port on localhost. The port is reserved immediately so [RedirectURI] returns a stable value. Call DefaultMCPAuthHandler.Close when the handler is no longer needed to release the port.

The returned handler has no OnAuthURL hook configured and will therefore appear to hang on HandleAuth until the context deadline fires. Set OnAuthURL before using the handler, or use a higher-level wrapper such as CLIMCPAuthHandler.

func NewDefaultMCPAuthHandlerWithPort added in v0.39.0

func NewDefaultMCPAuthHandlerWithPort(port int) (*DefaultMCPAuthHandler, error)

NewDefaultMCPAuthHandlerWithPort creates a handler that listens on the specified port on localhost. The port is reserved immediately. Pass 0 to let the OS pick a free port (equivalent to NewDefaultMCPAuthHandler). Call DefaultMCPAuthHandler.Close when the handler is no longer needed.

func (*DefaultMCPAuthHandler) Close added in v0.39.0

func (h *DefaultMCPAuthHandler) Close() error

Close releases the reserved port and shuts down the handler. After Close, HandleAuth will return an error. Close is safe to call multiple times.

func (*DefaultMCPAuthHandler) HandleAuth added in v0.39.0

func (h *DefaultMCPAuthHandler) HandleAuth(ctx context.Context, serverName string, authURL string) (string, error)

HandleAuth invokes [OnAuthURL] with the authorization URL (if configured) and waits for the OAuth callback on the local server. It returns the full callback URL including query parameters (code, state, etc.).

If the context has no deadline, a default 2-minute timeout is applied. The callback server is started for each HandleAuth call and shut down before returning.

func (*DefaultMCPAuthHandler) Port added in v0.39.0

func (h *DefaultMCPAuthHandler) Port() int

Port returns the TCP port the callback server is bound to.

func (*DefaultMCPAuthHandler) RedirectURI added in v0.39.0

func (h *DefaultMCPAuthHandler) RedirectURI() string

RedirectURI returns the OAuth redirect URI pointing to the local callback server. This value is stable for the lifetime of the handler.

type DiffBlock added in v0.12.0

type DiffBlock struct {
	OldText string `json:"old_text"`
	NewText string `json:"new_text"`
}

DiffBlock represents a single old→new text replacement within a file.

type EventListener

type EventListener func(event Event)

EventListener is a callback that receives lifecycle events.

type EventType

type EventType string

EventType identifies the kind of lifecycle event.

const (
	// EventTurnStart fires before the agent begins processing a prompt.

	EventToolCallEnd EventType = "tool_call_end"
	// EventToolCall fires when a tool call has been parsed and is about to execute.
	EventToolCall EventType = "tool_call"
	// EventToolExecutionStart fires when a tool begins executing.
	EventToolExecutionStart EventType = "tool_execution_start"
	// EventToolExecutionEnd fires when a tool finishes executing.
	EventToolExecutionEnd EventType = "tool_execution_end"
	// EventToolResult fires after a tool execution completes with its result.
	EventToolResult EventType = "tool_result"
	// EventToolCallContent fires when a step includes text alongside tool calls.
	EventToolCallContent EventType = "tool_call_content"
	// EventResponse fires when the LLM produces a final response.
	EventResponse EventType = "response"
	// EventCompaction fires after a successful compaction.
	EventCompaction EventType = "compaction"
	// EventReasoningDelta fires for each streaming reasoning/thinking chunk.

	// after the last reasoning token has been processed.
	EventReasoningComplete EventType = "reasoning_complete"
	// EventToolOutput fires when a tool produces streaming output chunks.
	EventToolOutput EventType = "tool_output"
	EventStepUsage  EventType = "step_usage"
	// EventPasswordPrompt fires when a sudo command needs a password.
	EventPasswordPrompt EventType = "password_prompt"
	// EventSteerConsumed fires when one or more steering messages have been
	// injected into the agent turn via PrepareStep.
	EventSteerConsumed EventType = "steer_consumed"
)

type ExtensionDataEntry added in v0.42.0

type ExtensionDataEntry struct {
	ID        string
	ExtType   string
	Data      string
	Timestamp time.Time
}

ExtensionDataEntry represents custom extension data stored in the session.

type FileDiffInfo added in v0.12.0

type FileDiffInfo struct {
	Path       string      `json:"path"`             // Absolute file path
	Additions  int         `json:"additions"`        // Lines added
	Deletions  int         `json:"deletions"`        // Lines removed
	IsNew      bool        `json:"is_new,omitempty"` // True if file was created (write only)
	DiffBlocks []DiffBlock `json:"diff_blocks,omitempty"`
}

FileDiffInfo describes a file modification from an edit or write tool.

type Finish

type Finish = message.Finish

Finish marks the end of an assistant turn, carrying the stop reason.

type HookPriority

type HookPriority int

HookPriority controls execution order of hooks. Lower values run first.

const (
	// HookPriorityHigh runs before normal hooks.
	HookPriorityHigh HookPriority = 0
	// HookPriorityNormal is the default priority.
	HookPriorityNormal HookPriority = 50
	// HookPriorityLow runs after normal hooks.
	HookPriorityLow HookPriority = 100
)

type Kit

type Kit struct {
	// contains filtered or unexported fields
}

Kit provides programmatic access to kit functionality, allowing integration of MCP tools and LLM interactions into Go applications. It manages agents, sessions, and model configurations.

func New

func New(ctx context.Context, opts *Options) (*Kit, error)

New creates a Kit instance using the same initialization as the CLI. It loads configuration, initializes MCP servers, creates the LLM model, and sets up the agent for interaction. Returns an error if initialization fails.

Global viper state warning: fields on Options are applied by calling viper.Set on viper's process-global store. As a result, two Kits constructed in the same process are NOT isolated: the second New overwrites viper keys set by the first, and any downstream reader (e.g. Kit.SetModel, Kit.GetThinkingLevel) will observe the most recent value. Callers that need multiple independent Kits should call viper.Reset() between constructions, or avoid constructing more than one Kit per process. Writes during New are serialized by [viperInitMu].

TODO: refactor to use a per-call viper.New() instance so each Kit owns its own isolated config store and Options stop leaking through the global singleton.

func (*Kit) AddInProcessMCPServer added in v0.52.0

func (m *Kit) AddInProcessMCPServer(ctx context.Context, name string, srv *MCPServer) (int, error)

AddInProcessMCPServer connects an in-process mcp-go server and makes its tools available to the agent immediately. Unlike [AddMCPServer] with a command/URL config, this uses mcp-go's in-process transport — no subprocess is spawned and no network I/O occurs.

The server must be a *server.MCPServer from github.com/mark3labs/mcp-go/server. Kit does not take ownership of the server's lifecycle; the caller is responsible for any cleanup when the server is no longer needed.

Returns the number of tools loaded from the server.

Example:

import (
    "github.com/mark3labs/mcp-go/mcp"
    "github.com/mark3labs/mcp-go/server"
)

mcpSrv := server.NewMCPServer("my-tools", "1.0.0",
    server.WithToolCapabilities(true),
)
mcpSrv.AddTool(mcp.NewTool("search_docs",
    mcp.WithDescription("Search documentation"),
    mcp.WithString("query", mcp.Required()),
), searchHandler)

n, err := k.AddInProcessMCPServer(ctx, "docs", mcpSrv)

func (*Kit) AddMCPServer added in v0.47.0

func (m *Kit) AddMCPServer(ctx context.Context, name string, cfg MCPServerConfig) (int, error)

AddMCPServer connects to a new MCP server at runtime and makes its tools available to the agent immediately. The server's tools are prefixed with the server name (e.g. "myserver__tool_name") to avoid naming conflicts, matching the behaviour of servers loaded at initialization.

Returns the number of tools loaded from the server.

AddMCPServer is safe to call while the agent is idle. If a turn is in progress (Kit.IsGenerating returns true), the new tools will be visible starting from the next LLM step.

Example:

n, err := k.AddMCPServer(ctx, "github", kit.MCPServerConfig{
    Command: []string{"npx", "-y", "@modelcontextprotocol/server-github"},
    Environment: map[string]string{"GITHUB_TOKEN": os.Getenv("GITHUB_TOKEN")},
})

func (*Kit) Branch

func (m *Kit) Branch(entryID string) error

Branch moves the session's leaf pointer to the given entry ID, creating a branch point. Subsequent Prompt() calls will extend from the new position.

func (*Kit) ClearSession

func (m *Kit) ClearSession()

ClearSession resets the session's leaf pointer to the root, starting a fresh conversation branch.

func (*Kit) ClearSkillCache added in v0.28.0

func (m *Kit) ClearSkillCache()

ClearSkillCache clears the skill cache for this Kit instance.

func (*Kit) Close

func (m *Kit) Close() error

Close cleans up resources including MCP server connections, model resources, and the tree session file handle. Should be called when the Kit instance is no longer needed. Returns an error if cleanup fails.

func (*Kit) CollapseBranch added in v0.28.0

func (m *Kit) CollapseBranch(fromID, toID, summary string) error

CollapseBranch replaces a branch range with a summary entry. Returns an error if the session is unavailable or the operation fails.

func (*Kit) Compact

func (m *Kit) Compact(ctx context.Context, opts *CompactionOptions, customInstructions string) (*CompactionResult, error)

Compact summarises older messages to reduce context usage. If opts is nil, the instance's CompactionOptions (or sensible defaults) are used. The model's context window is automatically populated from the model registry when opts.ContextWindow is 0.

customInstructions is optional text appended to the summary prompt (e.g. "Focus on the API design decisions"). Pass "" for the default prompt.

Compaction is non-destructive: a CompactionEntry is appended to the session tree recording the summary and the first kept entry ID. Old messages remain on disk but are skipped when building the LLM context — the summary is injected in their place.

func (*Kit) DiscoverSkillsForExtension added in v0.28.0

func (m *Kit) DiscoverSkillsForExtension() []extensions.Skill

DiscoverSkillsForExtension finds skills in standard locations for extensions. Returns skills in the extension-facing format. Results are cached per-Kit instance to avoid reloading on every call.

func (*Kit) DrainSteer added in v0.24.0

func (m *Kit) DrainSteer() []agent.SteerMessage

DrainSteer removes and returns all unconsumed steer messages. Called after a turn completes so the app layer can process any steer messages that arrived after the last PrepareStep fired (e.g. during a text-only response with no tool calls, or after the agent finished its last step).

func (*Kit) EstimateContextTokens

func (m *Kit) EstimateContextTokens() int

EstimateContextTokens returns the estimated token count of the current conversation based on session messages.

func (*Kit) ExecuteCompletion added in v0.3.0

func (m *Kit) ExecuteCompletion(ctx context.Context, req extensions.CompleteRequest) (extensions.CompleteResponse, error)

ExecuteCompletion makes a standalone LLM completion call for extensions. When req.Model is empty the current agent model is reused (no provider creation overhead). When req.Model is set a temporary provider is created, used, and closed.

func (*Kit) Extensions added in v0.30.0

func (m *Kit) Extensions() ExtensionAPI

Extensions returns the ExtensionAPI for accessing all extension-related functionality.

func (*Kit) FollowUp

func (m *Kit) FollowUp(ctx context.Context, text string) (string, error)

FollowUp continues the conversation without explicit new user input. If text is empty, "Continue." is used as the prompt. Use FollowUp when the agent's previous response was truncated or you want the agent to elaborate.

Returns an error if there are no previous messages in the session.

func (*Kit) GetAvailableModels added in v0.3.0

func (m *Kit) GetAvailableModels() []extensions.ModelInfoEntry

GetAvailableModels returns a list of known models from the registry. Each entry includes provider, model ID, context limit, and whether the model supports reasoning. This is an advisory list — models not in the registry can still be used by specifying their provider/model string.

func (*Kit) GetBufferedDebugMessages added in v0.2.0

func (m *Kit) GetBufferedDebugMessages() []string

GetBufferedDebugMessages returns any debug messages that were buffered during initialization, then clears the buffer. Returns nil if no messages were buffered or if buffered logging was not configured.

func (*Kit) GetChildren added in v0.28.0

func (m *Kit) GetChildren(parentID string) []string

GetChildren returns direct child IDs of an entry.

func (*Kit) GetContextFiles

func (m *Kit) GetContextFiles() []*ContextFile

GetContextFiles returns the context files (e.g. AGENTS.md) loaded during initialisation. Returns nil if no context files were found.

func (*Kit) GetContextStats

func (m *Kit) GetContextStats() ContextStats

GetContextStats returns current context usage statistics including estimated token count, context limit, usage percentage, and message count.

When API-reported token counts are available (after at least one turn), EstimatedTokens uses the real input token count from the most recent API response. This is significantly more accurate than the text-based heuristic because it includes system prompts, tool definitions, and other overhead that the heuristic cannot account for.

func (*Kit) GetCurrentBranch added in v0.28.0

func (m *Kit) GetCurrentBranch() []TreeNode

GetCurrentBranch returns the path from root to current leaf as TreeNodes.

func (*Kit) GetExtensionToolCount added in v0.2.0

func (m *Kit) GetExtensionToolCount() int

GetExtensionToolCount returns the number of tools registered by extensions.

func (*Kit) GetLoadedServerNames added in v0.2.0

func (m *Kit) GetLoadedServerNames() []string

GetLoadedServerNames returns the names of successfully loaded MCP servers. If MCP servers are still loading in the background, this returns only the servers that have completed loading so far.

func (*Kit) GetLoadingMessage added in v0.2.0

func (m *Kit) GetLoadingMessage() string

GetLoadingMessage returns the agent's startup info message (e.g. GPU fallback info), or empty string if none.

func (*Kit) GetMCPPrompt added in v0.51.0

func (m *Kit) GetMCPPrompt(ctx context.Context, serverName, promptName string, args map[string]string) (*MCPPromptResult, error)

GetMCPPrompt retrieves and expands a specific prompt from an MCP server. This is a lazy call — the server is contacted each time to get the latest prompt content. Arguments are passed as key=value pairs to the server for template substitution.

Returns an error if the server is not found or the prompt expansion fails.

func (*Kit) GetMCPToolCount added in v0.2.0

func (m *Kit) GetMCPToolCount() int

GetMCPToolCount returns the number of tools loaded from external MCP servers. If MCP servers are still loading in the background, this returns the count of tools loaded so far (may be 0).

func (*Kit) GetModelInfo

func (m *Kit) GetModelInfo() *ModelInfo

GetModelInfo returns detailed information about the current model (capabilities, pricing, limits). Returns nil if the model is not in the registry — this is expected for new models or custom fine-tunes.

func (*Kit) GetModelString

func (m *Kit) GetModelString() string

GetModelString returns the current model string identifier (e.g., "anthropic/claude-sonnet-4-5-20250929" or "openai/gpt-4") being used by the agent.

func (*Kit) GetSessionID

func (m *Kit) GetSessionID() string

GetSessionID returns the UUID of the active session, or empty when no session is configured.

func (*Kit) GetSessionManager added in v0.42.0

func (m *Kit) GetSessionManager() SessionManager

GetSessionManager returns the session manager, or nil if not configured.

func (*Kit) GetSessionPath

func (m *Kit) GetSessionPath() string

GetSessionPath returns the file path of the active session, or empty for in-memory sessions or when no file-based session is configured.

func (*Kit) GetSkills

func (m *Kit) GetSkills() []*Skill

GetSkills returns the skills loaded during initialisation.

func (*Kit) GetStructuredMessages added in v0.12.0

func (m *Kit) GetStructuredMessages() []StructuredMessage

GetStructuredMessages returns the conversation messages on the current branch with full typed content parts. Unlike GetSessionMessages() which flattens all content to a single text string, this preserves tool calls, tool results, reasoning blocks, and finish markers as distinct typed parts.

func (*Kit) GetThinkingLevel added in v0.7.0

func (m *Kit) GetThinkingLevel() string

GetThinkingLevel returns the current thinking level.

func (*Kit) GetToolNames added in v0.2.0

func (m *Kit) GetToolNames() []string

GetToolNames returns the names of all tools available to the agent.

func (*Kit) GetTools

func (m *Kit) GetTools() []Tool

GetTools returns all tools available to the agent (core + MCP + extensions).

func (*Kit) GetTreeNode added in v0.28.0

func (m *Kit) GetTreeNode(entryID string) *TreeNode

GetTreeNode returns a node by ID with full metadata and children. Returns nil if entry not found or no session.

func (*Kit) GetTreeSession

func (m *Kit) GetTreeSession() *TreeManager

GetTreeSession returns the tree session manager, or nil if not configured. Deprecated: Use GetSessionManager instead.

func (*Kit) InjectSteer added in v0.24.0

func (m *Kit) InjectSteer(message string)

InjectSteer sends a steering message into the currently active agent turn. The message will be injected as a user message between steps (after the current tool execution finishes, before the next LLM call). If no turn is active the message is silently dropped — callers should check IsGenerating() or use Prompt()/Steer() for idle-state messaging.

InjectSteer is safe to call from any goroutine. Multiple calls queue messages in order; all pending steer messages are drained and injected together at the next step boundary.

This is the preferred way to redirect an agent mid-turn without cancelling in-progress tool execution.

func (*Kit) InjectSteerWithFiles added in v0.36.0

func (m *Kit) InjectSteerWithFiles(message string, files []LLMFilePart)

InjectSteerWithFiles sends a steering message with optional file attachments (e.g. pasted images) into the currently active agent turn. Behaves like InjectSteer but includes file parts in the injected user message.

func (*Kit) IsGenerating added in v0.24.0

func (m *Kit) IsGenerating() bool

IsGenerating returns true if an agent turn is currently in progress. Use this to decide between InjectSteer (mid-turn) and Prompt (new turn).

func (*Kit) IsReasoningModel added in v0.7.0

func (m *Kit) IsReasoningModel() bool

IsReasoningModel returns true if the current model supports extended thinking / reasoning.

func (*Kit) ListMCPPrompts added in v0.51.0

func (m *Kit) ListMCPPrompts() []MCPPrompt

ListMCPPrompts returns all prompts discovered from connected MCP servers. If MCP servers are still loading in the background, this returns only the prompts discovered so far. Returns nil if no prompts are available.

func (*Kit) ListMCPResources added in v0.51.0

func (m *Kit) ListMCPResources() []MCPResource

ListMCPResources returns all resources discovered from connected MCP servers. If MCP servers are still loading in the background, this returns only the resources discovered so far. Returns nil if no resources are available.

func (*Kit) ListMCPServers added in v0.47.0

func (m *Kit) ListMCPServers() []MCPServerStatus

ListMCPServers returns the status of all currently loaded MCP servers. The returned slice is a snapshot; it is safe to read concurrently.

func (*Kit) LoadSkillForExtension added in v0.28.0

func (m *Kit) LoadSkillForExtension(path string) (*extensions.Skill, string)

LoadSkillForExtension loads a single skill file for extensions.

func (*Kit) LoadSkillsFromDirForExtension added in v0.28.0

func (m *Kit) LoadSkillsFromDirForExtension(dir string) extensions.SkillLoadResult

LoadSkillsFromDirForExtension loads all skills from a directory for extensions.

func (*Kit) MCPToolsReady added in v0.41.0

func (m *Kit) MCPToolsReady() bool

MCPToolsReady returns true if MCP tool loading has completed (or was never started). This is a non-blocking check useful for UI status display.

func (*Kit) MaxOutputLimit added in v0.54.0

func (m *Kit) MaxOutputLimit() int

MaxOutputLimit returns the catalog-reported output ceiling for the current model in tokens, or 0 when the model isn't in the registry (custom models, new releases, Ollama, etc.). Pair with MaxTokens() to detect when the agent is configured well below what the model supports and surface a hint to the user.

func (*Kit) MaxTokens added in v0.54.0

func (m *Kit) MaxTokens() int

MaxTokens returns the effective max output tokens currently configured for the agent. This is the value actually sent to the LLM provider on each request, after CLI/env/config resolution, per-model overrides, model-aware right-sizing, and any Anthropic thinking-budget adjustments.

Returns 0 when the active provider suppresses the max_output_tokens parameter (e.g. OpenAI Codex OAuth) or when no model is configured yet. A non-zero value is the number that will cause a FinishReasonLength truncation if the model tries to generate beyond it.

func (*Kit) NavigateTo added in v0.28.0

func (m *Kit) NavigateTo(entryID string) error

NavigateTo branches/forks the session to the specified entry ID. Returns an error if the session is unavailable or the entry ID is not found.

func (*Kit) OnAfterToolResult

func (m *Kit) OnAfterToolResult(p HookPriority, h func(AfterToolResultHook) *AfterToolResultResult) func()

OnAfterToolResult registers a hook that fires after each tool execution. Return a non-nil AfterToolResultResult to modify the tool's output before it reaches the LLM. Hooks execute in priority order; the first non-nil result wins. Returns an unregister function.

func (*Kit) OnAfterTurn

func (m *Kit) OnAfterTurn(p HookPriority, h func(AfterTurnHook)) func()

OnAfterTurn registers a hook that fires after each prompt turn completes. This is observation-only — the handler cannot modify the response. Hooks execute in priority order. Returns an unregister function.

func (*Kit) OnBeforeCompact added in v0.3.0

func (m *Kit) OnBeforeCompact(p HookPriority, h func(BeforeCompactHook) *BeforeCompactResult) func()

OnBeforeCompact registers a hook that fires before context compaction runs. Return a non-nil BeforeCompactResult with Cancel=true to prevent compaction. Hooks execute in priority order; the first non-nil result wins. Returns an unregister function.

func (*Kit) OnBeforeToolCall

func (m *Kit) OnBeforeToolCall(p HookPriority, h func(BeforeToolCallHook) *BeforeToolCallResult) func()

OnBeforeToolCall registers a hook that fires before each tool execution. Return a non-nil BeforeToolCallResult with Block=true to prevent the tool from running. Hooks execute in priority order; the first non-nil result wins. Returns an unregister function.

func (*Kit) OnBeforeTurn

func (m *Kit) OnBeforeTurn(p HookPriority, h func(BeforeTurnHook) *BeforeTurnResult) func()

OnBeforeTurn registers a hook that fires before each prompt turn. Return a non-nil BeforeTurnResult to modify the prompt, inject a system message, or prepend context. Hooks execute in priority order; the first non-nil result wins. Returns an unregister function.

func (*Kit) OnContextPrepare added in v0.3.0

func (m *Kit) OnContextPrepare(p HookPriority, h func(ContextPrepareHook) *ContextPrepareResult) func()

OnContextPrepare registers a hook that fires after the context window is built from the session tree and before messages are sent to the LLM. Return a non-nil ContextPrepareResult with Messages to replace the entire context. Hooks execute in priority order; the first non-nil result wins. Returns an unregister function.

func (*Kit) OnResponse

func (m *Kit) OnResponse(handler func(ResponseEvent)) func()

OnResponse registers a handler that fires only for ResponseEvent. Returns an unsubscribe function.

func (*Kit) OnStreaming

func (*Kit) OnToolCallEnd added in v0.58.0

func (m *Kit) OnToolCallEnd(handler func(ToolCallEndEvent)) func()

OnToolCallEnd registers a handler that fires only for ToolCallEndEvent. This fires when tool argument streaming is complete, before the tool call is parsed and execution begins. Returns an unsubscribe function.

func (*Kit) OnToolCallStart added in v0.58.0

func (m *Kit) OnToolCallStart(handler func(ToolCallStartEvent)) func()

OnToolCallStart registers a handler that fires only for ToolCallStartEvent. This fires when the LLM begins generating tool call arguments — before the full argument JSON is available. Returns an unsubscribe function.

func (*Kit) OnToolOutput added in v0.20.0

func (m *Kit) OnToolOutput(handler func(ToolOutputEvent)) func()

OnToolOutput registers a handler that fires only for ToolOutputEvent (streaming tool output chunks, e.g., from bash). Returns an unsubscribe function.

func (m *Kit) Prompt(ctx context.Context, message string) (string, error)

Prompt sends a message to the agent and returns the response. The agent may use tools as needed to generate the response. The conversation history is automatically maintained in the tree session. Lifecycle events are emitted to all registered subscribers. Returns an error if generation fails.

func (*Kit) PromptResult

func (m *Kit) PromptResult(ctx context.Context, message string) (*TurnResult, error)

PromptResult sends a message and returns the full turn result including usage statistics and conversation messages. Use this instead of Prompt() when you need more than just the response text.

func (*Kit) PromptResultWithFiles added in v0.7.0

func (m *Kit) PromptResultWithFiles(ctx context.Context, message string, files []LLMFilePart) (*TurnResult, error)

PromptResultWithFiles sends a multimodal message (text + images) and returns the full turn result. The files parameter carries binary file data (e.g. clipboard images) that are included alongside the text in the user message.

func (*Kit) PromptResultWithMessages added in v0.15.3

func (m *Kit) PromptResultWithMessages(ctx context.Context, messages []string) (*TurnResult, error)

PromptResultWithMessages submits multiple user messages in a single turn. All messages are persisted to the session and sent to the agent together. The agent will respond once to the combined context of all messages. Returns the full turn result including usage statistics and conversation messages.

func (*Kit) PromptWithOptions

func (m *Kit) PromptWithOptions(ctx context.Context, msg string, opts PromptOptions) (string, error)

PromptWithOptions sends a message with per-call configuration. It behaves like Prompt but allows injecting an additional system message before the user prompt. Both messages are persisted to the session.

ReloadSkills re-discovers skills from disk, replacing the current set. This is called by file watchers when skill files change.

func (*Kit) RemoveMCPServer added in v0.47.0

func (m *Kit) RemoveMCPServer(name string) error

RemoveMCPServer disconnects an MCP server and removes all its tools from the agent. After this call the agent will no longer see or be able to call tools from the named server.

RemoveMCPServer is safe to call while the agent is idle. If a turn is in progress, the tools are removed at the next LLM step. Any in-flight tool calls to the removed server will fail gracefully.

Returns an error if the named server is not currently loaded.

func (*Kit) SetModel added in v0.3.0

func (m *Kit) SetModel(ctx context.Context, modelString string) error

SetModel changes the active model at runtime. The existing tools and session are preserved. When the new model has a per-model system prompt (from modelSettings or customModels params), it is composed with the current AGENTS.md context and skills before being applied. The model string should be in "provider/model" format (e.g. "anthropic/claude-sonnet-4-5-20250929"). Returns an error if the model string is invalid or the provider cannot be created.

func (*Kit) SetSessionManager added in v0.42.0

func (m *Kit) SetSessionManager(sm SessionManager)

func (m *Kit) SetThinkingLevel(ctx context.Context, level string) error

SetThinkingLevel changes the thinking level and recreates the agent with the new thinking budget. Returns an error if provider recreation fails.

With message-level caching, both thinking and caching work together. Caching reduces costs by 60-90% for repeated context.

func (*Kit) SetTreeSession

func (m *Kit) SetTreeSession(ts *TreeManager)

SetTreeSession replaces the tree session on a Kit instance. This is used by the CLI when it handles session creation externally (e.g. --resume with a TUI picker) and needs to inject the result into a Kit-like workflow. Deprecated: Use SetSessionManager instead.

func (*Kit) ShouldCompact

func (m *Kit) ShouldCompact() bool

ShouldCompact reports whether the conversation is near the model's context limit and should be compacted. Formula: contextTokens > contextWindow − reserveTokens. Returns false if the model's context limit is unknown.

When API-reported token counts are available (after at least one turn), the real count is used instead of the text-based heuristic. This is significantly more accurate because it includes system prompts, tool definitions, and other overhead that the heuristic cannot account for.

func (*Kit) Steer

func (m *Kit) Steer(ctx context.Context, instruction string) (string, error)

Steer injects a system-level instruction and triggers a new agent turn. Use Steer to dynamically adjust agent behavior mid-conversation without a visible user message — for example, changing tone, focus, or constraints.

Under the hood, Steer appends a system message (the instruction) followed by a synthetic user message so the agent acknowledges and follows the directive. Both messages are persisted to the session.

func (*Kit) Subagent added in v0.12.0

func (m *Kit) Subagent(ctx context.Context, cfg SubagentConfig) (*SubagentResult, error)

Subagent spawns an in-process child Kit instance to perform a task. The child gets its own session, event bus, and agent loop but shares the parent's config (API keys, provider settings) and defaults to the parent's model when SubagentConfig.Model is empty.

This is the recommended way to run subagents in the SDK — no subprocess, no kit binary dependency, native Go types for results.

func (*Kit) Subscribe

func (m *Kit) Subscribe(listener EventListener) func()

Subscribe registers an EventListener that will be called for every lifecycle event emitted during Prompt(). Returns an unsubscribe function that removes the listener.

func (*Kit) SubscribeMCPResource added in v0.51.0

func (m *Kit) SubscribeMCPResource(ctx context.Context, serverName, uri string) error

SubscribeMCPResource subscribes to change notifications for a resource. When the resource changes on the server, the resource list is refreshed.

func (*Kit) SubscribeSubagent added in v0.17.0

func (m *Kit) SubscribeSubagent(toolCallID string, listener EventListener) func()

SubscribeSubagent registers a listener for real-time events from a subagent identified by its tool call ID. Returns an unsubscribe function.

The listener receives the same event types as Subscribe() (ToolCallEvent, MessageUpdateEvent, etc.) but scoped to the child agent's activity. If the tool call ID doesn't correspond to an active or future subagent call, the listener simply never fires.

Typical usage — register inside an OnToolCall handler:

kit.OnToolCall(func(e kit.ToolCallEvent) {
    if e.ToolName == "subagent" {
        kit.SubscribeSubagent(e.ToolCallID, func(child kit.Event) {
            // real-time subagent events
        })
    }
})

func (*Kit) SummarizeBranch added in v0.28.0

func (m *Kit) SummarizeBranch(fromID, toID string) (string, error)

func (*Kit) UnsubscribeMCPResource added in v0.51.0

func (m *Kit) UnsubscribeMCPResource(ctx context.Context, serverName, uri string) error

UnsubscribeMCPResource cancels change notifications for a resource.

func (*Kit) WaitForMCPTools added in v0.41.0

type MCPAuthHandler interface {
	// RedirectURI returns the OAuth redirect URI that the callback server
	// will listen on. This is called during MCP transport setup — before any
	// OAuth errors occur — so the redirect URI can be registered with the
	// authorization server.
	RedirectURI() string

	// HandleAuth is called when an MCP server requires OAuth authorization.
	// It receives the server name and an authorization URL that the user must
	// visit. The handler must:
	//   1. Direct the user to authURL (e.g. open browser, display URL)
	//   2. Listen for the OAuth callback on the redirect URI
	//   3. Return the full callback URL (with code and state query params)

	// respect ctx.Done().
	HandleAuth(ctx context.Context, serverName string, authURL string) (callbackURL string, err error)
}

MCPAuthHandler handles OAuth authorization for MCP servers. Implementations control the user experience — opening a browser, showing a prompt, displaying a URL, posting to a message bus, etc.

DefaultMCPAuthHandler provides the transport mechanics (port reservation and callback server) but performs no user-facing I/O on its own; consumers wire presentation via [DefaultMCPAuthHandler.OnAuthURL] or implement MCPAuthHandler from scratch.

	NoExtensions bool

	// NoContextFiles disables automatic loading of project context files
	// (e.g. AGENTS.md) from the working directory.
	NoContextFiles bool

	// MCPConfig provides a pre-loaded MCP configuration. When set,

	// MCPAuthHandler handles OAuth authorization for remote MCP servers.
	// When set, remote transports (streamable HTTP, SSE) are configured
	// with OAuth support. If the server returns a 401, the handler is
	// invoked to let the user authorize.
	//
	// If nil, OAuth is disabled: remote MCP servers requiring authorization
	// will fail to connect and the underlying authorization-required error
	// is surfaced to the caller. The SDK deliberately does not construct a
	// default handler — doing so would bind a local TCP port and trigger
	// presentation I/O (browser open, stderr writes) without the consumer
	// opting in, which is wrong for library, daemon, or web-app embedders.
	//
	// CLI consumers: pass [NewCLIMCPAuthHandler] to get the standard
	// "open browser + print status" behavior.
	//
	// Custom UX: implement [MCPAuthHandler] directly, or use

	// real-time progress in the TUI.
	OnMCPServerLoaded func(serverName string, toolCount int, err error)

	// CLI is optional CLI-specific configuration. SDK users leave this nil.
	CLI *CLIOptions

	// SessionManager allows custom session storage backends.
	// If nil (default), Kit uses the built-in file-based TreeManager.
	// When provided, SessionPath, Continue, and NoSession options are ignored.
	SessionManager SessionManager
}

Options configures Kit creation with optional overrides for model, prompts, configuration, and behavior settings. All fields are optional and will use CLI defaults if not specified.

Global viper state warning: Options are applied by New via viper.Set calls against viper's process-global store. This store is shared with every downstream reader (e.g. Kit.SetModel, Kit.GetThinkingLevel, BuildProviderConfig, and any other code path that calls viper.Get*). Two consequences:

  1. Kit instances are NOT isolated from each other within a single process. Values set by the second New() call overwrite the first, and any code that later reads viper will see the most recent Set.
  2. Fields left at the zero value do NOT clear prior viper state; they simply skip the viper.Set. Callers that need a clean slate between constructions should invoke viper.Reset() (the test suite uses a private resetViper() helper that wraps it) before the next New().

Recommended usage: create one Kit per process, or reset viper between constructions. Concurrent calls to New are serialized internally by [viperInitMu], but that mutex does not prevent later viper reads (from a different Kit) from observing mutated keys.

TODO: refactor New to use a per-instance *viper.Viper (constructed via viper.New()) so each Kit owns its own isolated config store and Options no longer leak through the global singleton.

	// The entry ID is used for tree navigation and must be unique within the session.
	//
	// During generation, AppendMessage is called incrementally after each
	// completed agent step rather than in a batch at the end of the turn.
	// For tool-calling steps, the assistant message (containing tool_use parts)
	// and the tool-role message (containing tool_result parts) are appended
	// together as a pair. This ensures the session never contains an orphaned
	// tool call without its result, which would break subsequent LLM requests.

The tool call ID is injected into the context and can be retrieved with ToolCallIDFromContext.

Example:

type WeatherInput struct {
    City string `json:"city" description:"City name"`
