setMessages function is not working

[Marius-brt]

When I try to call the setMessages function from useChat for reseting the conversation nothing happens.

const { sendMessage, status, stop, error, setMessages } = useChat({
    id: chat_id,
    transport: new DefaultChatTransport({
      fetch: customFetch,
    }),
    onError: (err) => {
      console.error("Error in AI sidebar", err);
      setGlobalError(err);
    },
  });

const handleNewChat = useCallback(() => {
    if (status === "streaming" || status === "submitted") {
      stop();
    }
    setInput("");
    setMessages([]);
  }, [status, stop, setInput, contextStore]);

Do you have any idea?
