Props of the native component are also available.

Name	Type	Default	Description
alwaysVisible	bool	false	By default, suggestions only render when the active thread has no messages (treating them as an empty-state affordance). Set to `true` to render the suggestions regardless of message count — e.g. as a "next prompt" row above the composer in an active conversation.
autoSubmit	bool	false	Whether to auto-submit when a suggestion is clicked.
suggestions	Array<{ label?: string, value: string } \| string>	-	Suggestion items. Strings are normalized to `{ value, label }`. Ignored when `children` are provided.

The component cannot hold a ref.

These class names are useful for styling with CSS. They are applied to the component's slots when specific states are triggered.

Class name	Rule name	Description
