Agent Component
Batteries-included agent component from ui.inference.sh.
Quick Start
# Install the agent component
npx shadcn@latest add https://ui.inference.sh/r/agent.json
# Add the SDK for the proxy route
npm install @inferencesh/sdk
Setup
1. API Proxy Route (Next.js)
// app/api/inference/proxy/route.ts
import { route } from '@inferencesh/sdk/proxy/nextjs';
export const { GET, POST, PUT } = route;
2. Environment Variable
# .env.local
INFERENCE_API_KEY=inf_...
3. Use the Component
import { Agent } from "@/registry/blocks/agent/agent"
export default function Page() {
return (
<Agent
proxyUrl="/api/inference/proxy"
agentConfig={{
core_app: { ref: 'openrouter/claude-haiku-45@0fkg6xwb' },
description: 'a helpful ai assistant',
system_prompt: 'you are helpful.',
}}
/>
)
}
