Astro — install the widget

read as .md

In an Astro site the tag goes into the layout every page uses, marked is:inline. The tag is the same on every platform — Install the widget has the general picture; this page has the exact place on Astro.

The tag — put your app id in place of app_abc123
<!-- guuey widget. Add this site to the app's allowed domains or the embed is refused. -->
<script src="https://widget.guuey.com/v1.js" data-app="app_abc123" async></script>
  1. Open the layout every page uses (typically src/layouts/Layout.astro, or whatever your pages wrap themselves in).
  2. Paste the tag just before </body> and add the is:inline directive to it: <script is:inline src="https://widget.guuey.com/v1.js" data-app="app_abc123" async></script> (your app id in place of app_abc123).
  3. Build and deploy as usual.
  • Why is:inline: Astro processes plain <script> tags by default (bundling, converting to type="module"); is:inline scripts are "rendered into the HTML exactly as written" — "no TypeScript and no import resolution by Astro" — which keeps the data-app attribute and the async flag on the tag the loader reads. Astro's docs show exactly this shape for external scripts.

Verified against the vendor's documentation on 2026-09-09: Scripts and event handling — is:inline and external scripts (docs.astro.build). Vendor interfaces change — if a step no longer matches what you see, the vendor's page above is the source of truth.

Allow your site’s origin (console → Embed → Allowed origins, or guuey apps update <appId> --domains <origin>; about 15 seconds to apply), add the CSP allowances if your site sets a policy, then verify with guuey apps check <appId> --origin <origin> — the steps are on Install the widget.

Paste into your coding agent
Install the Guuey chat widget on this Astro site. Before changing anything,
read https://docs.guuey.com/embed/astro.md and https://docs.guuey.com/install-widget.md
(the raw markdown of the two pages) and follow them exactly; do not invent options
or steps they do not contain.
1. Put this tag in the shared layout component (e.g. src/layouts/Layout.astro), just before </body>, with the is:inline directive on the tag so Astro emits it as written, with my app id <appId> in place of app_abc123:
<script src="https://widget.guuey.com/v1.js" data-app="app_abc123" async></script>
Add nothing else to the tag — except your page's CSP nonce, if the site uses
nonces (step 3).
2. Tell me the exact origin(s) my pages are served from (scheme + host) so I can
add them to the app's allowed domains in the console (Embed → Allowed origins)
or with: guuey apps update <appId> --domains <origin>. Remind me that a bare
hostname covers the apex and every subdomain, while a scheme-prefixed origin is
an exact match, and that changes take about 15 seconds to apply.
3. If this site sets a Content-Security-Policy, add exactly these allowances and
nothing more. If the policy uses nonces (script-src 'nonce-...'): render the
site's per-request nonce on the widget tag the way its other script tags carry
it — that is what lets the loader run, and the loader puts the same nonce on the
one <style> it injects; then allow https://widget.guuey.com in frame-src and
connect-src. If the policy uses host allowlists: add https://widget.guuey.com to
script-src, frame-src and connect-src, and 'unsafe-inline' to style-src.
4. When I've saved the origin, verify with:
guuey apps check <appId> --origin <origin>
Stop and ask me before any step those two pages do not describe.
