## What the AI SDK Is
The AI SDK by Vercel (the `ai` package on npm) is a TypeScript toolkit for building AI applications. It provides a unified API across model providers for text generation, structured output, tool calling, agents, embeddings, and framework UI integrations.

## Critical: Do Not Trust Your Own Memory
Whatever you remember about the AI SDK is likely outdated. The SDK changes frequently across versions - APIs are renamed, removed, and added. Your training data almost certainly contains obsolete APIs, deprecated patterns, and model IDs that no longer exist. UI hooks like `useChat` are among the most frequently changed APIs, so be especially careful with client code.
**Never write AI SDK code from memory.** Always verify every API, option, and pattern against the documentation and source code for the version that is actually installed in the project.
## Use the Bundled, Version-Matched Docs
The `ai` package ships its full documentation and source code inside `node_modules`. These always match the installed version, so trust them over anything you remember.
1. Ensure `ai` is installed. If `node_modules/ai/` does not exist, install **only** the `ai` package using the project's package manager (e.g. `pnpm add ai`). Install provider packages (e.g. `@ai-sdk/openai`) and framework packages (e.g. `@ai-sdk/react`) later, when the task requires them.
2. Read and grep the bundled do
