Assistant Home

Where someone lands when they open the assistant. A greeting, the prompt box with a model picker, the apps it can read, and suggestions drawn from what those apps report, with past chats down the side and saved prompts one click away.

When to use

The first page of an AI assistant or copilot

Inside a conversation already under way: use AI Chat
A setup flow for a new workspace: use the Onboarding screen

The decision inside it

Suggestions come from the connected apps

Every suggestion is a real count an app reported, with the app's mark, ordered by how urgent it is. An app that fails to sync adds nothing and the page says so, instead of offering a generic prompt that leads nowhere.

Installation

Assistant Home is a Pro screen, included with lifetime access. It is two files on top of the Layro components it is made of.

Add the components it uses:

npx shadcn@latest add @layro/avatar @layro/button @layro/drawer @layro/toast @layro/prompt-composer @layro/model-picker @layro/suggested-prompts @layro/conversation-history @layro/prompt-library

Copy screens/assistant-home.tsx and screens/data/assistant-home.ts from the Code tab above into your project, at the same paths.
It also imports @/lib and @/demos/brand-logos: Layro’s shared helpers and the demo’s sample images. Point them at your own.

Usage

app/page.tsx

import { AssistantHome } from "@/screens/assistant-home";

export default function Page() {
  /* A screen fills the box it is given: give it the window. */
  return (
    <main className="h-dvh">
      <AssistantHome name="Alex" className="h-full" />
    </main>
  );
}

Built from

Every Layro component this screen imports. Each has its own page, props and install command.

API reference

Read from AssistantHomeProps when the site is built. It also takes every attribute a div does, such as className.

AssistantHome

Prop	Type	Notes
`state`	`AssistantHomeState`	—
`name`	`string`	The person's first name, for the greeting.
`assistantAvatar`	`React.ReactNode`	The assistant's mark. Default: a sparkle tile.

Accessibility

The prompt box, model picker and suggestions work from the keyboard
Sync problems are announced, not only shown
Movement follows the reduced-motion setting

Responsive behavior

Fills the box it is given: mount it at the window's height
Past chats move into a drawer on narrow widths
Light and dark come from the Layro theme: it follows the dark class on <html>, like every component.
