cometchat-react-v7-calls
Add voice & video calling to a React app with the CometChat v7 UI Kit — install the Calls SDK, enable calling on the UIKit settings, mount the incoming-call surface, and wire 1:1 ring / group join. Bakes the real gotchas (ms idle-timeout, zero-dimension call surface, Next.js SSR, no group-ring, HTTPS/getUserMedia). Triggers: 'add voice and video calls', 'add calling to my chat', 'enable video call', 'add call buttons', 'show call logs', 'cometchat calling react'.

Read excerpt
> **Ground truth:** calling is part of `@cometchat/chat-uikit-react@7` (the call UI ships INSIDE the kit — there is no separate calls-UI package), but the WebRTC engine is a SEPARATE, NOT-bundled dependency: `@cometchat/chat-uikit-react@^7` + `@cometchat/chat-sdk-javascript@^4.1.9` + **`@cometchat/calls-sdk-javascript@^5`** (major 5 — distinct from the chat SDK's v4). Every `CometChat*` symbol below exists in the `web-v7` catalog. Exhaustive props + advanced call surfaces are FETCHED from the docs `.md` twins via `cometchat-react-v7-core/references/docs-map.md`. **APPEND to the user's app — additive wiring only** (`RULES.md`).
## Companion skills (read first)
- `cometchat-react-v7-core` — install, credentials, `init→login→render`, `CometChatProvider`. This skill ASSUMES it (calling is enabled on the SAME init).
- `cometchat-react-v7-components` — the component catalog (message header the call buttons live in).
- `cometchat-react-v7-features` — `voice-video-calls` is the feature entry; this skill is its operational depth.
## Use this skill when
"add voice & video calls", "add calling to my chat", "enable video call", "add call buttons", "show call logs". Precondition: chat is already integrated (core done) — calling rides on the same init/login.
## Prerequisites & install
Core setup done (init + login + `CometChatProvider`). Calling adds ONE package:
```bash
npm install @cometchat/calls-sdk-javascript@5
