Description
Feature Request
Add optional action buttons to assistant messages for common interactions:
- Copy: Copy message content to clipboard
- Feedback: Thumbs up/down for rating responses
- Regenerate: Request a new response
- Share: Share the message
Usage
chat_ui("chat", message_actions = TRUE)
# or specific actions:
chat_ui("chat", message_actions = c("copy", "feedback"))
chat_ui("chat", message_actions=True)
# or specific actions:
chat_ui("chat", message_actions=["copy", "feedback"])
Events are exposed as Shiny inputs (R: input$ID_message_feedback, Python: @chat.on_message_feedback decorator).

Research direction
Start from the chat_ui entry points and review how assistant messages and events are currently exposed for R and Python. Define the supported message_actions values and verify that copy, feedback, regenerate, and share actions produce the specified Shiny inputs or Python decorator events. Done means both usage forms and the listed event interfaces work consistently.
