} from "@/registry/blocks/chat"

export function Chat() {
  const [messages, setMessages] = useState([])
  const [isLoading, setIsLoading] = useState(false)

  const handleSend = async (content: string) => {
    setMessages(prev => [...prev, { role: 'user', content }])
    setIsLoading(true)
    // Send to API...
    setIsLoading(false)
  }

  return (
    <ChatContainer>
      {messages.map((msg, i) => (
        <ChatMessage key={i} role={msg.role} content={msg.content} />
      ))}
