show_view tool, picks components from the Component Kit, and fills in their fields. Metabind validates the response against each component’s schema before it renders, and the view appears in the conversation, inside the host’s sandboxed frame. The model fills in the components; it never writes HTML or code.
For short facts, opinions, or writing, the model answers in text as usual.
