Problem/Motivation

The chat interface uses a character-by-character typewriter animation for new assistant messages. While visually appealing, some sites may prefer instant
display for performance or UX reasons. There is currently no way to disable this effect without custom code.

Proposed resolution

Add a configurable checkbox "Enable typewriter effect" under the UI Configuration section of the settings form at
/admin/config/ai/ai-rag-search-chat.

Changes:

  • Config schema: add ui.typewriter_enabled boolean
  • Default config: typewriter_enabled: true (backwards compatible)
  • Settings form: checkbox under UI Configuration
  • ChatPageController: pass setting to JS via drupalSettings.aiRagChat.ui.typewriterEnabled
  • chat-interface.js: check the setting before calling revealTextContent()

Remaining tasks

Review and merge.
