# Mastra Showcase — Parity Notes
|
|
|
|
This document tracks progress toward feature parity with the LangGraph Python
|
|
showcase and the rationale for every LangGraph demo that has NOT (yet) been
|
|
ported to Mastra.
|
|
|
|
## Ported in this PR
|
|
|
|
- `prebuilt-sidebar`, `prebuilt-popup` — pre-built chat surfaces
|
|
- `chat-slots`, `chat-customization-css` — chat customization
|
|
- `headless-simple` — custom chat UI via `useAgent`
|
|
- `frontend-tools`, `frontend-tools-async` — `useFrontendTool` sync/async
|
|
- `hitl-in-chat`, `hitl-in-app` — both human-in-the-loop patterns
|
|
- `tool-rendering-default-catchall`, `tool-rendering-custom-catchall` — catch-all tool rendering variants
|
|
- `agentic-chat-reasoning`, `reasoning-default-render` — reasoning slot customization (see reasoning caveat under "Architectural limitations")
|
|
- `readonly-state-agent-context` — `useAgentContext` read-only context
|
|
- `agent-config` — config-object forwarding (adapted to `useAgentContext`)
|
|
- `cli-start` — manifest-only `npx degit` entry for the Mastra starter
|
|
- `declarative-gen-ui` — A2UI dynamic-schema catalog via the existing
|
|
`generate_a2ui` tool on the shared Mastra agent
|
|
- `a2ui-fixed-schema` — A2UI fixed-schema flight card catalog via the
|
|
same `generate_a2ui` tool
|
|
- `headless-complete` — full chat-from-scratch on `useAgent` with a
|
|
dedicated `headlessCompleteAgent` (weather + stock backend tools,
|
|
frontend `highlight_note` component) and manual composition via
|
|
`useRenderToolCall` / `useRenderActivityMessage` /
|
|
`useRenderCustomMessages`. Routes through the shared `/api/copilotkit`
|
|
runtime; the langgraph-python reference's MCP Apps "sketch a diagram"
|
|
suggestion is dropped because Mastra skips mcp-apps (see below).
|
|
- `auth` — Bearer-token gate enforced by the V2 runtime's `onRequest` hook
|
|
(wired via `createCopilotRuntimeHandler` from `@copilotkit/runtime/v2`).
|
|
Starts authenticated to avoid the initial `/info` 401 crash; a local
|
|
`ChatErrorBoundary` auto-resets when auth flips.
|
|
|
|
## Skipped / Deferred
|
|
|
|
Each entry below documents one LangGraph-Python demo that was not ported in
|
|
this PR and the reason.
|
|
|
|
### `gen-ui-interrupt`
|
|
|
|
Requires LangGraph's `interrupt()` primitive so the frontend can "resume" a
|
|
paused graph via `useInterrupt`. Mastra doesn't expose an equivalent
|
|
interrupt/resume lifecycle through the AG-UI adapter yet. The `hitl-in-chat`
|
|
port already covers the same user-visible UX using `useHumanInTheLoop`, so
|
|
this demo was skipped to avoid misleading the feature matrix.
|
|
|
|
### `interrupt-headless`
|
|
|
|
Same reason as `gen-ui-interrupt` — requires LangGraph interrupt lifecycle.
|
|
|
|
### `mcp-apps`
|
|
|
|
Requires an MCP client to be wired into the agent's tool surface. Mastra's
|
|
MCP story is still evolving and there's no established pattern for shipping
|
|
an MCP-backed demo inside the Mastra showcase.
|
|
|
|
### `byoc-hashbrown`
|
|
|
|
Large BYOC demo using `@hashbrownai/react` for structured streaming. The
|
|
langgraph-python implementation is ~9 files and depends on strict
|
|
hashbrown schema alignment. Deferred pending a dedicated pass.
|
|
|
|
### `byoc-json-render`
|
|
|
|
BYOC demo using `@json-render/react`. Large surface area (~10 files).
|
|
Deferred pending a dedicated pass.
|
|
|
|
### `open-gen-ui`, `open-gen-ui-advanced`
|
|
|
|
The open generative UI demos ship their own iframe sandbox, frontend
|
|
function injection, and a bespoke `/api/copilotkit-ogui` route. Non-trivial
|
|
port. Deferred.
|
|
|
|
### `multimodal`
|
|
|
|
Requires a vision-capable runtime and a dedicated `/api/copilotkit-multimodal`
|
|
route with attachment handling. Deferred.
|
|
|
|
### `voice`
|
|
|
|
Requires a voice-capable runtime at `/api/copilotkit-voice` plus a bundled
|
|
sample-audio asset. Deferred.
|
|
|
|
### `beautiful-chat`
|
|
|
|
Canonical polished starter — ~9 files including charts, hooks, and a dedicated
|
|
`/api/copilotkit-beautiful-chat` route. Deferred pending a dedicated pass.
|
|
|
|
### `tool-rendering-reasoning-chain` — architectural skip
|
|
|
|
Requires a dedicated agent that emits sequential tool calls with **AG-UI
|
|
REASONING*MESSAGE*\*** events interleaved. The `@ag-ui/mastra` adapter (see
|
|
`node_modules/@ag-ui/mastra`) does not currently emit any
|
|
`REASONING_MESSAGE_START | CONTENT | END` events — a repository grep for
|
|
those constants returns zero matches. Until the Mastra AG-UI bridge grows
|
|
reasoning-event support, this demo cannot be ported without a cosmetic
|
|
facade that fabricates reasoning tokens. Skipped as a truthful
|
|
architectural limitation rather than a cosmetic stub.
|
|
|
|
## Architectural limitations
|
|
|
|
- **Reasoning events are not emitted by `@ag-ui/mastra`.** The two
|
|
reasoning demos (`agentic-chat-reasoning`, `reasoning-default-render`)
|
|
ship the slot-override wiring so the UI shape is correct, but the
|
|
`@ag-ui/mastra` adapter does not emit AG-UI `REASONING_MESSAGE_START |
|
|
CONTENT | END` events — the slot will therefore never receive tokens in
|
|
practice. These demos are kept in-tree for shape/compile coverage and so
|
|
the slot-override pattern is visible to showcase readers, but operators
|
|
should treat them as **cosmetic** until the Mastra AG-UI bridge grows
|
|
reasoning support. `tool-rendering-reasoning-chain` is fully skipped for
|
|
the same reason (see "Skipped / Deferred" above).
|
|
|
|
## Compatibility notes
|
|
|
|
- **Agent aliasing:** All ported demos currently route to the shared
|
|
`weatherAgent` via the demo-alias list in `src/app/api/copilotkit/route.ts`.
|
|
Each alias gets a dedicated `resourceId` so working-memory buckets don't
|
|
cross-contaminate. Full per-demo agent specialization is a follow-up.
|
|
|
|
- **Agent config forwarding:** The LangGraph reference uses provider
|
|
`properties` passed to a dedicated route that rebuilds the system prompt
|
|
per turn. The Mastra port uses `useAgentContext` instead — functionally
|
|
equivalent from the user's perspective but a different wiring pattern.
