About
Consecutive tool calls in one readable group with collapsible outputs for each call.
Built with React and Tailwind. Copy the prompt and paste it into Claude Code, Cursor or Lovable: your agent adds Tool Group to your project and fits it to your theme.
Code
How Tool Group is used: the demo's code. The component's own source comes with a free account.
Usage.tsx
import { useEffect, useState } from 'react'
import ToolGroup, { type ToolGroupItem } from '@/components/ui/tool-group'
const steps: (Omit<ToolGroupItem, 'status'> & { ms: number })[] = [
{
id: 'search',
name: 'Search the component registry',
ms: 1300,
output: '{\n "query": "tool group",\n "matches": 12,\n "top": "@pastaui/tool-group"\n}',
outputLanguage: 'json',
},
{ id: 'read', kind: 'file', name: 'Read tool-group.tsx', ms: 900 },
{ id: 'edit', kind: 'file', name: 'Edit tool-group.tsx', ms: 1400 },
{
id: 'test',
kind: 'command',
name: 'Run pnpm test tool-group',
ms: 1600,
output: 'pnpm test tool-group\n24 passed, 0 failed (1.2s)',
outputLanguage: 'shell',
