Readme
@stigmer/react
React provider and client hook for the Stigmer platform SDK. Provides the foundational wiring for connecting React applications to a Stigmer backend — style-isolated and theme-aware.
Feature components (agent picker, execution stream, session history, etc.) have been removed as part of the session-first UX redesign and will be rebuilt with a platform-for-platforms architecture.

Quick Start
import { Stigmer } from "@stigmer/sdk";
import { StigmerProvider } from "@stigmer/react";
import "@stigmer/react/styles.css";
const client = new Stigmer({
baseUrl: "https://api.stigmer.ai",
getAccessToken: () => auth.getToken(),
});
function App() {
return (
<StigmerProvider client={client} preset="corporate">
<YourApp />
</StigmerProvider>
);
}Three things are required:
- A
Stigmerclient — see@stigmer/sdkfor configuration options. <StigmerProvider>— distributes the client to all descendant components and scopes styles.@stigmer/react/styles.css— the compiled stylesheet. Import once at your application root.
Provider
StigmerProvider wraps your component tree, supplies the SDK client via React context, and renders a <div class="stgm"> container that scopes all Stigmer styles.
Props

client |
Stigmer |
Yes | A configured @stigmer/sdk client instance. |
colorMode |
"light" | "dark" | "system" |
No | Controls light/dark appearance. Defaults to "light". |
deploymentMode |
"local" | "cloud" |
No | Backend deployment mode. Defaults to "cloud". |
executionTarget |
"local" | "cloud" |
No | Default execution target for sessions and workflow executions created in this provider. Omit to let the server decide. See Local Execution. |

useStigmer() Hook
Access the client from any descendant component:
import { useStigmer } from "@stigmer/react";
function MyComponent() {
const stigmer = useStigmer();
// stigmer.agent.get(id), stigmer.session.list(...), etc.
}Throws if called outside a <StigmerProvider>.
Theming
Built-in Presets
Pass a preset prop to apply a complete design language — colors, border radius, shadows, transitions, and sidebar appearance for both light and dark modes.
<StigmerProvider client={client} preset="fintech">
{children}
</StigmerProvider>| Preset | Archetype | Description |
|---|---|---|
"default" |
Stigmer identity | Teal palette, balanced radius (omit the prop for this) |
"corporate" |
Enterprise SaaS | Tight radius, blue accent, cool grays, dark sidebar |
"startup" |
Dev tools | Monochrome, violet accent, minimal shadows, snappy transitions |
"friendly" |
Consumer SaaS | Very rounded, warm coral, cream surfaces, soft shadows |
"fintech" |
Premium financial | Sharp corners, indigo accent, crisp shadows, precise transitions |
Each preset overrides the full token surface. See @stigmer/theme README for the complete token reference and preset details.
Custom Token Overrides
Override any --stgm-* CSS custom property to match your product's design language. Only override what you need — everything else falls through to defaults (or the active preset).
.my-brand {
--stgm-primary: oklch(0.6 0.2 220);
--stgm-primary-foreground: oklch(0.985 0 0);
--stgm-radius: 0.5rem;
--stgm-shadow-md: 0 4px 12px rgb(0 0 0 / 0.08);
--stgm-transition-duration: 120ms;
}
.my-brand[data-stgm-color-mode="dark"],
[data-stgm-color-mode="dark"] .my-brand {
--stgm-primary: oklch(0.75 0.18 220);
--stgm-primary-foreground: oklch(0.145 0 0);
--stgm-shadow-md: 0 4px 12px rgb(0 0 0 / 0.3);
}Apply the class via className:
<StigmerProvider client={client} className="my-brand">
{children}
</StigmerProvider>You can combine preset and className. The className overrides cascade on top of the preset.
Dark Mode
Pass colorMode to control the appearance of all descendant Stigmer components. No ancestor CSS classes, no Tailwind conventions, no host DOM requirements.
// Explicit dark mode
<StigmerProvider client={client} colorMode="dark">
{children}
</StigmerProvider>
// Follow the user's OS preference
<StigmerProvider client={client} colorMode="system">
{children}
</StigmerProvider>| Value | Behavior |
|---|---|
"light" |
Light design tokens (default). |
"dark" |
Dark design tokens. |
"system" |
Tracks prefers-color-scheme and updates automatically when the OS preference changes. |
The resolved mode is set as a data-stgm-color-mode attribute on the scoping container. All --stgm-* token overrides and Tailwind dark: utilities activate from this attribute — the provider is fully self-contained.
Bridging from a host theme system
If your host application already manages dark mode (MUI, Chakra, next-themes, etc.), pass the resolved value directly:
// MUI
const muiMode = useTheme().palette.mode; // "light" | "dark"
<StigmerProvider client={client} colorMode={muiMode}>
// Chakra
const { colorMode } = useColorMode(); // "light" | "dark"
<StigmerProvider client={client} colorMode={colorMode}>
// next-themes
const { resolvedTheme } = useTheme();
const colorMode = resolvedTheme === "dark" ? "dark" : "light";
<StigmerProvider client={client} colorMode={colorMode}>useColorMode() hook
Read the resolved color mode from any descendant component:
import { useColorMode } from "@stigmer/react";
function MyComponent() {
const mode = useColorMode(); // "light" | "dark"
}Returns "light" or "dark" — never "system". The provider resolves "system" before setting context.
Style Isolation
@stigmer/react is designed to embed inside any host application without style conflicts.
- CSS layer scoping. All Stigmer styles live inside
@layer stgm. Host styles in higher-priority layers (or no layer) take precedence over Tailwind's base resets — Stigmer's reset only applies inside the.stgmcontainer. - Container scoping.
StigmerProviderrenders a<div class="stgm">wrapper. The CSS reset (box-sizing,border-style, font smoothing) is scoped to.stgmand its descendants. Host elements outside this container are unaffected. - Token namespacing. All design tokens use the
--stgm-*prefix. No collision with host application CSS variables.
This means you can mount <StigmerProvider> inside a sidebar, modal, or any section of your page and Stigmer's styles stay contained.
Local Execution
By default, agent and workflow execution runs in the cloud — the Stigmer server provisions a sandbox with a runner. Desktop apps, CLIs, and self-hosted deployments can instead run execution on the client. Two provider props control this.
executionTarget
Sets where sessions and workflow executions created within the provider run:
| Value | Behavior |
|---|---|
"local" |
The client provides the runner — a desktop app, CLI, or customer-managed runner process. |
"cloud" |
The server provisions a cloud sandbox automatically. |
undefined (default) |
The server decides based on deployment context — local for OSS/self-hosted, cloud for managed. |
This is an app-level setting: every session and workflow execution created in the provider tree inherits it. For one-off overrides, @stigmer/sdk accepts a per-call executionTarget on session.create() and workflowExecution.create(), which takes precedence over the provider value.
runnerAdapter
When executionTarget is "local", the SDK must start and stop the client's runner at the right moments. It does this through a RunnerAdapter you supply — the SDK never manages runner processes directly.
import { StigmerProvider } from "@stigmer/react";
import { useTauriRunnerAdapter } from "./useTauriRunnerAdapter";
function App() {
const adapter = useTauriRunnerAdapter();
return (
<StigmerProvider client={client} executionTarget="local" runnerAdapter={adapter}>
<YourApp />
</StigmerProvider>
);
}Cloud consumers omit runnerAdapter entirely.
The RunnerAdapter interface
interface RunnerAdapter {
onSessionOpened(sessionId: string): Promise<void>;
onSessionClosed(sessionId: string): Promise<void>;
onWorkflowExecutionCreated(executionId: string): Promise<void>;
onWorkflowExecutionTerminated(executionId: string): Promise<void>;
}SDK hooks call these methods at the matching lifecycle points — but only when a runnerAdapter is provided and the resolved execution target is "local". A Session is a long-lived, multi-turn conversation with no terminal phase, so its worker is tied to whether the session is open: it is attached while the session view is open and detached when it closes. A Workflow Execution runs to a terminal phase, so its worker is tied to creation and completion.
| Method | Invoked by | When |
|---|---|---|
onSessionOpened |
useSessionConversation (and the new-session flow's eager attach) |
While a local session is open — re-attaching on every open, so follow-ups always have a poller. |
onSessionClosed |
useSessionConversation |
When the session view closes (unmount or session change). |
onWorkflowExecutionCreated |
useRunWorkflowFlow |
After a local workflow execution is created. |
onWorkflowExecutionTerminated |
useWorkflowExecution |
When the execution reaches a terminal phase. |
Implement
onSessionOpened/onSessionClosedidempotently —onSessionOpenedcan be called again for an already-open session (e.g. on re-open), and the reference desktop adapter maps them toaddSession/removeSession, which already de-duplicate. Adapter errors are swallowed for the session view so a transient runner hiccup never crashes an open conversation.
If your runner backend already exposes addSession / removeSession / addWorkflowExecution / removeWorkflowExecution (a RunnerWorkerHost), build the adapter in one call with createRunnerAdapter(host) instead of hand-writing the four methods — this is how the reference Tauri implementation wires itself. See the runner embedding guide for the full desktop (local) and web (cloud) walkthrough.
