Controls expose onValueChange, onSubmit, focus, selection, and validation callbacks.

Callback props run after the documented input is accepted. Callbacks are not cancellable unless their return type or description states otherwise.

Interaction and capabilities

Text controls edit directly; choice controls use arrows and Space or Enter; Form coordinates validation and submission.

The published manifest records keyboard, focus, pointer, theme, terminal, semantic, event, and dependency requirements.
