tool definition does not infer types in .server and .client

TanStack AI version

Framework/Library version

v19.2.3

Describe the bug and the steps to reproduce it

Tanstack ai docs mention that tool definition is fully typesafe.

But the client function shows input as unknown.

Minimal repro:

import { toolDefinition } from '@tanstack/ai'
import z from 'zod'

export const saveToLocalStorageDef = toolDefinition({
  name: 'save_to_local_storage',
  description: 'Save data to browser local storage',
  inputSchema: z.object({
    key: z.string().describe('Storage key'),
    value: z.string().describe('Value to store'),
  }),
  outputSchema: z.object({
    saved: z.boolean(),
  }),
})

const saveToLocalStorage = saveToLocalStorageDef.client((input) => {
  localStorage.setItem(input.key, input.value)
  return { saved: true }
})

What framework are you using? I can infer the type in TanStack Start, though.
