koel_runtime 1.0.0

AG-UI adapter for a CopilotKit ≥1.52 (v2) runtime — native AG-UI over SSE.

koel_runtime

CopilotKit runtime backend bridge for koel, the premium Dart/Flutter SDK for the AG-UI protocol. koel_runtime adapts the CopilotKit runtime to koel's typed AG-UI event stream over native SSE — CopilotRuntimeAgent extends HttpAgent, POSTing the complete RunAgentInput to {endpoint}/agent/{agentName}/run and parsing the text/event-stream response the runtime emits. It is the same wire agno/langgraph speak, so it rides koel_http's SseParser/HttpAgent directly — no GraphQL parser, no stateful converter.

Getting started

// pubspec.yaml:  dart pub add koel_runtime
import 'package:koel_runtime/koel_runtime.dart';

final agent = CopilotRuntimeAgent(
  // The runtime BASE path; the run route `/agent/{agentName}/run` is appended.
  endpoint: Uri.parse('https://your-app.example/api/copilotkit'),
  // REQUIRED: the name of the registered runtime agent this run dispatches to.
  agentName: 'your_agent',
  // OPTIONAL: a Bearer token (the v2 runtime is open by default — null no-ops).
  authToken: null,
);

await for (final event in agent.run(input)) {
  // RUN_STARTED → <message/tool/state events> → RUN_FINISHED
}

CopilotRuntimeAgent extends HttpAgent — it inherits koel_http's full transport stack (SSE parse, timeouts, cancellation, retry/auth interceptors) and overrides only two seams: encodeBody (normalizes koel's Message superset down to canonical AG-UI for the messages array) and errorClassifier. Failures never throw from run: a connection error, a non-2xx status, or a malformed body reaches the consumer as a single terminal RunErrorEvent carrying a typed KoelError (refined by CopilotRuntimeErrorClassifier).

agentName is required

There is no safe default: the v2 run route is /agent/{agentName}/run, naming your registered agent — knowable only at construction — so a hard-coded default would silently mis-target every real deployment.

Runtime version pin: @copilotkit/runtime ≥1.52 (reference-verified 1.59.4)

CopilotKit v2 (>= 1.52) is native AG-UI over SSE: POST {basePath}/agent/{agentName}/run returns a text/event-stream of canonical AG-UI events (data: {type,...}). The reference backend is verified at @copilotkit/runtime@1.59.4 (SPIKE-CK-V2). The legacy multipart/@defer GraphQL transport of <= 1.8.14 reached EOL and is removed — koel_runtime no longer bridges it (Story 5.11, SCP-2026-06-05). The runtime's parseRunRequest requires the complete RunAgentInput (threadId/runId/state/messages/ tools/context/forwardedProps all present); HttpAgent.encodeBody already serializes all of them, so this is free.

Event surface: the full AG-UI matrix (25/28, no 7/28 partition)

v2 is a transparent AG-UI passthrough — every data: frame is a canonical AG-UI event the inherited SseParser yields verbatim. So koel_runtime surfaces the same full matrix agno/langgraph do, with no lossy partition: STATE_SNAPSHOT + STATE_DELTA, RUN_ERROR on the wire, STEP_*, MESSAGES_SNAPSHOT, reasoning, ACTIVITY, RAW, CUSTOM — all pass through.

The only types not reproduced verbatim are the 3 *_CHUNK convenience shapes (TEXT_MESSAGE_CHUNK, TOOL_CALL_CHUNK, REASONING_MESSAGE_CHUNK): koel_http's default-on synthesizeChunks (Story 4.8) normalizes them into their START/CONTENT/END triplets at the transport, so an HTTP adapter sees long form — the fixed 25/28 contract shared with every native-AG-UI adapter, not a bridge limitation. A real runtime never emits chunk shapes anyway.

Historical note. Through <= 1.8.14 koel_runtime bridged CopilotKit's multipart/@defer GraphQL transport, which represented only 7 of 28 AG-UI types — it collapsed STATE_DELTA into the preceding snapshot and swallowed in-agent RUN_ERROR (ending the stream status:Success). v2's native SSE delivers both on the wire; the state_delta_basic + error_path conformance fixtures are the verbatim proof. The GraphQL parser/converter are preserved at the archive/koel-runtime-graphql git tag.
