provider: Availity
providerId: availity
summary: >-
  Availity ships two generations of a first-party client-side component estate: Availity Element
  (current — a React design system on Material UI and @availity/design-tokens) and Availity UI Kit
  (previous — Bootstrap 4 SCSS). Both are aimed at applications that RUN INSIDE the Availity
  Essentials portal, not at consumers of the public REST APIs. Availity publishes NO embeddable
  drop-in widget, NO hosted/prebuilt UI surface, NO iframe embed and NO web component that a third
  party could drop into their own site to expose Availity data. Every component below requires a
  React build and portal session context.
scope_note: >-
  This distinction matters for the agent/embedding story. A provider like Stripe ships Elements that
  a stranger can embed with a publishable key; Availity ships an internal design system that
  presumes you are building a portal application under a trading-partner relationship. There is no
  self-serve embed path.

    component_catalog_note: >-
      The Storybook at availity.github.io/element renders the full component catalog client-side;
      the repository README names components only by example (Button) and does not publish a static
      list. No machine-readable component manifest (custom-elements.json or equivalent) is served.

    note: >-
      The GitHub repository is public and was updated 2026-07-28, but registry.npmjs.org returns
      HTTP 404 for @availity/uikit, so no published version or date could be read. Recorded with
      null rather than guessed. Superseded by Availity Element for new work.
