Kanshō/Thinking process

Thinking process

Product-safe reasoning summaries, source progress, tool activity, and execution receipts. It avoids raw hidden chain-of-thought and keeps active controls reachable.

Included in the single kansho full pack. Components are not offered as separate installs.

Active source search

Source disclosure is live; Stop is a static-preview callback

I am checking official documentation and nearby code before suggesting a token-storage change.

Markdown reasoning summary

The answer should separate the safe recommendation from the implementation detail.

  • Store the session token in an HttpOnly cookie.
  • Set Secure, SameSite=Lax, and a server-side expiry.
  • Only mention localStorage to explain why it is avoided.

Included components

This page is the canonical destination for these components. All ship in the single Kansho pack.

Disclosure

components/ui/disclosure.tsx

Status glyph

components/agent/status-glyph.tsx

Component documentation

Disclosure

components/ui/disclosure.tsx

Purpose

Shows and hides a related content region from a trigger.

Appropriate use

Use for optional detail that should remain available without dominating the initial view.

Example

components/ui/disclosure.tsx has a representative live example in the "Blocked steps" section on /components/thinking-process.

States

Supports controlled or uncontrolled open state and animated open or closed content.

API and props

Disclosure accepts open, defaultOpen, onOpenChange, className, and children; DisclosureTrigger and DisclosureContent accept native button and div props.

Dependencies

React, Lucide icons, and the Kansho cn utility.

Accessibility

The trigger sets aria-expanded and aria-controls and remains a native keyboard-operable button.

Limitations

It is a single disclosure, not a coordinated accordion with one-open-at-a-time behaviour.

Source

Source: components/ui/disclosure.tsx.

Full pack

components/ui/disclosure.tsx is documented at /components/thinking-process and installs only through the single Kansho full pack; no individual component install is offered.

Status glyph

components/agent/status-glyph.tsx

Purpose

Renders the shared status icon in a tinted circular glyph, including BrailleLoader for running state.

Appropriate use

Use in reasoning and timeline rows where the surrounding text names the status or a standalone label is provided.

Example

components/agent/status-glyph.tsx has a representative live example in the "Lifecycle states" section on /components/thinking-process.

States

Supports shared glyph statuses, sm/md/lg sizes, and an optional pending pulse.

API and props

StatusGlyph accepts status, label, size, pulse, and className.

Dependencies

Direct imports are React, Lucide icons, BrailleLoader, status metadata, and cn.

Accessibility

A supplied label makes the glyph a named image; otherwise it is hidden and the parent must convey status in text.

Limitations

It is presentational and does not announce status changes; motion-safe suppresses the optional pulse for reduced-motion users.

Source

Source: components/agent/status-glyph.tsx.

Full pack

components/agent/status-glyph.tsx is documented at /components/thinking-process and installs only through the single Kansho full pack; no individual component install is offered.

Thinking Process

components/agent/thinking-process.tsx

Purpose

Presents a structured reasoning trace with lifecycle status, steps, sources, block reasons, elapsed time, and optional stop actions.

Appropriate use

Use when operators need a bounded execution trace rather than raw hidden reasoning.

Example

components/agent/thinking-process.tsx has a representative live example in the "Active source search" section on /components/thinking-process.

States

Process states are idle, running, complete, blocked, and error; step states add queued and paused, with typed kinds and blocked reasons; variants are default, compact, inspector, or dashed.

API and props

ThinkingProcess accepts label, durationMs, deprecated durationLabel, status, summary, steps, defaultOpen, variant, onStop, and className; ThinkingInlinePill renders compact labelled activity.

Dependencies

Direct imports are React, Lucide icons, SourcePill, StatusGlyph, Disclosure, duration formatting, and cn.

Accessibility

Disclosure owns keyboard expansion; per-step and process Stop controls are named native buttons, and status meaning is visible in text/glyph labels.

Limitations

It displays caller-supplied summaries and arguments without redaction and does not execute, cancel, or validate reasoning steps.
