The Developer's Guide to Generative UI in 2026
AI agents have become much better at reasoning and planning. The UI layer has mostly stayed the same, and it is holding back the experience. Most agent experiences still rely on chat, even when the task clearly needs forms, previews, controls, or step-by-step feedback. Generative UI is the idea that allows agents to influence the interface at runtime, so the UI can change as context changes. This is usually done through UI specs like A2UI, Open-JSON-UI, or MCP Apps. We'll break down Generative UI, the three practical patterns, and how CopilotKit supports them (using AG-UI protocol under the hood).

How to build a Frontend for LangChain Deep Agents with CopilotKit!LangChain recently introduced Deep Agents: a new way to build structured, multi-agent systems that can plan, delegate, and reason across multiple steps.
It comes with built-in planning, a filesystem for context, and subagent spawning. But connecting that agent to a real frontend is still surprisingly hard.
Today, we will build a Deep Agents powered job search assistant and connect it to a live Next.js UI with CopilotKit, so the frontend stays in sync with the agent in real time.

Oracle adopts AG-UI protocol for Agent SpecOne of the most complex problems in agentic systems today isn’t defining intelligent agents, it’s connecting those agents to real, reliable user experiences. Oracle’s Open Agent Specification (Agent Spec) and AG-UI now work together to solve that gap.

AG-UI and A2UI Explained: How the Emerging Agentic Stack Fits TogetherThe agentic ecosystem is evolving fast — and with new standards appearing almost weekly, it’s easy to get lost in the terminology. Two names that often get mixed up are AG-UI and A2UI. They sound similar, but they actually serve very different purposes. Even better: they complement each other beautifully.CopilotKit has been working closely with Google on A2UI, and we’ll be shipping full support when the A2UI spec launches. But before that happens, let’s break down how these pieces fit into the broader agentic landscape.

How Microsoft Agent Framework + AG-UI Enable Agentic UX & Generative UIMicrosoft’s Agent Framework (MAF) is an open source agent framework that has just come on the scene, and offers exceptional ways to build agents and multi-step workflows in .NET or Python. AG-UI is a frontend/runtime layer that lets those agents show up in your app with a clean UI, streaming responses, and shared state, etc. The integration between the two is simple but powerful: MAF handles the reasoning and tool-use, and AG-UI bridges the interactions between the agent and the users.

Master the 17 AG-UI Event Types for Building Agents the Right WayAgent-User Interaction Protocol (AG-UI) is quickly becoming the standard for connecting agents with user interfaces. It gives you a clean event stream to keep the UI in sync with what the agent is doing. All the communication is broken into typed events. I have been digging into the Protocol, especially around those core event types, to understand how everything fits together. Here’s what I picked up and why it matters.

The Three Types of Generative UI: Static, Declarative and Fully GeneratedA practical breakdown for building reliable AI‑driven interfaces: when to use each, examples, and reality checks. Generative UI has been hyped as the future of how we’ll build software interfaces, but most of the conversation is still fuzzy. Should you let a model write your entire UI? Or lock it down with strict components? In reality, there are three clear approaches that fall along a spectrum of flexibility vs. control. This blog unpacks each one with examples, pros and cons, and some practical guidance on when to use which.

The Best AI Agent Resources You Should Know in 2025Most AI Agents used to break the moment you tried plugging them into a real app. The issue was the lack of shared protocols. But that’s changing fast. Over the past year, protocols like AG-UI (user interaction), A2A (agent-to-agent communication), and MCP (for tool access) have changed the ecosystem. So I took the chance to learn these protocols and understand how everything fits together. This post covers everything I picked up about protocols (AG-UI, ACP, A2A, MCP). You will also find a collection of the best educational repos for learning & building AI Agents. This list will give you the foundations and tools you need.
