## copilotkit_predict_state

Stream tool calls as state to CopilotKit.

    To emit a tool call as streaming CrewAI state, pass the destination key in state,
    the tool name and optionally the tool argument. (If you don't pass the argument name,
    all arguments are emitted under the state key.)

    ```python
    from copilotkit.crewai import copilotkit_predict_state

    await copilotkit_predict_state(
        {
            "steps": {
                "tool_name": "SearchTool",
                "tool_argument": "steps",
            },
        }
    )
    ```

### Parameters

<PropertyReference name="config" type="Dict[str, CopilotKitPredictStateConfig]" required> 
The configuration to predict the state.
</PropertyReference>

### Returns

<PropertyReference name="returns" type="Awaitable[bool]">
Always return True.
</PropertyReference>

## copilotkit_emit_message

Manually emits a message to CopilotKit. Useful in longer running nodes to update the user.
    Important: You still need to return the messages from the node.

    ### Examples

    ```python
    from copilotkit.crewai import copilotkit_emit_message

    message = "Step 1 of 10 complete"
    await copilotkit_emit_message(message)

    # Return the message from the node
    return {
        "messages": [AIMessage(content=message)]
    }
    ```

### Parameters

<PropertyReference name="message" type="str" required> 
The message to emit.
</PropertyReference>

### Returns

<PropertyReference name="returns" type="Awaitable[bool]">
Always return True.
</PropertyReference>

## copilotkit_emit_tool_call

Manually emits a tool call to CopilotKit.

    ```python
    from copilotkit.crewai import copilotkit_emit_tool_call

    await copilotkit_emit_tool_call(name="SearchTool", args={"steps": 10})
    ```

### Parameters

<PropertyReference name="name" type="str" required> 
The name of the tool to emit.
</PropertyReference>

<PropertyReference name="args" type="Dict[str, Any]" required> 
The arguments to emit.
</PropertyReference>

### Returns

<PropertyReference name="returns" type="Awaitable[bool]">
Always return True.
