chatui – Typeset AI chat transcripts as terminal, web, or desktop chat UIs
This package typesets AI chat transcripts: user/assistant
messages, reasoning (thinking
) traces, tool-call traces, and file/image
attachments, styled as a terminal, web, or desktop chat UI, in light or dark
theme. It is meant for papers, reports, and documentation that need to show a
worked conversation with an AI assistant, including the reasoning and tool
calls behind a response.
