A long answer in a small chat window is a UI/UX problem more than an “LLM” problem. The good pattern is: keep the conversation readable in-place, but give the user frictionless ways to expand, navigate, and extract the important bits.

1) Sample Test Content

When the assistant response exceeds (say) ~10–20 lines:

  • Show the first part + a fade-out gradient

A long answer in a small chat window is a UI/UX problem more than an “LLM” problem. The good pattern is: keep the conversation readable in-place, but give the user frictionless ways to expand, navigate, and extract the important bits.

This preserves context at the top of the message instead of forcing users to scroll within a tiny viewport.

2) Sample Test

Render the answer as:

  • TL;DR (2–5 bullets)

  • Key steps / recommendation
