Full Release Notes

# CopilotKit Channels v0.1.1

The first GitHub release under the Channels name. `@copilotkit/channels` and `@copilotkit/channels-ui` replace the former `@copilotkit/bot` and `@copilotkit/bot-ui` package names.

## Install

```bash
npm install @copilotkit/channels@0.1.1 @copilotkit/channels-ui@0.1.1
```

## Changed

- Package names, repository paths, workspace dependencies, examples, release tooling, and documentation moved from **Bots** to **Channels**.
- Existing API names such as `createBot` are unchanged in this release; the migration is limited to package names and import paths.
- The former `/bots` and `/reference/bot` documentation URLs permanently redirect to their Channels equivalents.

## Migration

Replace `@copilotkit/bot` with `@copilotkit/channels`, replace `@copilotkit/bot-ui` with `@copilotkit/channels-ui`, and update imports plus any `jsxImportSource` setting to the new package names.

See the [Channels package migration PR](https://github.com/CopilotKit/CopilotKit/pull/5849) for the complete package map.
