On mobile-width browsers the conversation column and bottom composer could be forced wider than 100vw: long markdown (URLs, branch names, file paths), fenced code, and tables stretched the prose container, and the thread scroll area let the overflow bleed horizontally (#4693). Add a pure-CSS containment safety net in globals.css: - .markdown-content gets min-width:0, max-width:100%, overflow-wrap:anywhere so long tokens wrap instead of stretching the column. - long links and inline code break rather than overflow. - fenced/pre blocks and markdown tables scroll inside their own box. - the thread scroll column clips residual horizontal bleed (overflow-x:hidden) while vertical scroll and internal code-block scroll are unaffected. No component, JS, or agent-loop behavior touched; desktop layout unchanged. Fixes #4693 Co-Authored-By: Claude <noreply@anthropic.com>
nanobot WebUI Source
This directory contains the React/TypeScript source for the nanobot WebUI. If
you installed nanobot-ai from PyPI and only want to use the bundled browser UI,
read the user guide in docs/webui.md. You do not need
Node.js, Bun, Vite, or anything in this directory unless you are changing the
frontend.
For the project overview, install guide, and general docs map, see the root README.md and docs/README.md.

The source app is built with Vite + React 18 + TypeScript + Tailwind 3 + shadcn/ui. It talks to the gateway over the WebSocket multiplex protocol and reads session metadata from the embedded REST surface on the same port.

Develop the WebUI (Vite HMR)
1. Install nanobot from source
From the repository root:
python -m pip install -e .
Editable installs intentionally skip the WebUI bundle step — Vite HMR is faster than rebuilding
dist/on every change.
2. Enable the WebSocket channel
In ~/.nanobot/config.json, merge:
{ "channels": { "websocket": { "enabled": true } } }
3. Start the gateway
In one terminal:
nanobot gateway
4. Start the WebUI dev server
In another terminal:
cd webui
bun install # npm install also works
bun run dev
Then open http://127.0.0.1:5173.
By default the dev server proxies /api, /webui, /auth, and WebSocket traffic to http://127.0.0.1:8765.
If your gateway listens on a non-default port, point the dev server at it:
NANOBOT_API_URL=http://127.0.0.1:9000 bun run dev
Build for packaged runtime
You usually do not need to run this by hand: python -m build invokes the WebUI build automatically when packaging the wheel.
If you want to preview the production bundle locally without rebuilding the wheel:
cd webui
bun run build # writes to ../nanobot/web/dist
The gateway picks up the new bundle on the next restart.
Test
cd webui
bun run test
