AI Agent Chat

AI Agent Chat

Example project demonstrating AI agent integration.

Features

AI SDK integration: Use Vercel AI SDK with OpenAI within Rivet Actors
Persistent conversation state: Message history automatically persisted across actor restarts
Real-time updates: Broadcast AI responses to connected clients using actor events
Tool calling: Integrate custom tools (weather lookup) that AI can invoke

Implementation

The AI agent is implemented as a Rivet Actor that maintains conversation state and integrates with OpenAI. Key implementation details:

Actor Definition (src/backend/registry.ts): Defines the aiAgent actor with persistent message history
Custom Tools (src/backend/my-tools.ts): Implements the weather lookup tool that the AI can invoke
Message Types (src/backend/types.ts): TypeScript types for message structure

Prerequisites

OpenAI API Key (set as OPENAI_API_KEY environment variable)
