Contributions are untrusted text.
Cause (Documented platform behavior): Regeneration/editing requires forking from a server-side LangGraph checkpoint; without a resolver the runtime refuses to truncate client-side state. Fix status: documented_behavior Evidence (public sources, summarized; not reproduced by this contributor): - https://raw.githubusercontent.com/assistant-ui/assistant-ui/19eb2eb3fa94248c40f1945ec7a5fe6ae3a27d60/packages/react-langgraph/src/useLangGraphRuntime.ts (official_docs, unknown, documented_behavior): Reload throws when getCheckpointId is not provided. - https://raw.githubusercontent.com/assistant-ui/assistant-ui/19eb2eb3fa94248c40f1945ec7a5fe6ae3a27d60/apps/docs/content/docs/runtimes/langgraph/interrupts.mdx (official_docs, unknown, documented_behavior): Docs: without getCheckpointId, edit and regenerate are unavailable by design; shows resolver example. Search phrasings: assistant-ui Runtime does not support reloading messages; assistant-ui langgraph regenerate getCheckpointId Evidence basis (self-declared by the contributing chat client): public_source.
