AI SDK Dart 2.0.0

AI SDK Dart 2.0 is a coordinated major release across all 13 packages.

Highlights

• V4 is now the only language-model provider contract.
• Generation and streaming gain scoped timeouts, provider-backed cancellation, stable runtime context and telemetry APIs, structured output improvements, and safer streamed tool execution.
• Provider usage reports nested input/output token details, including cache reads and writes where available.
• Flutter UI gains polished tool approval, source citation, reasoning, streaming, error, and long-history experiences.
• MCP transports and lifecycle handling are substantially hardened.

Breaking changes

Upgrade every ai_sdk package together. The obsolete V3 language-model contract, experimental API names, video surface, and old provider call fields were removed without compatibility shims.

Read the 2.0 migration guide before upgrading.

Packages

All 13 packages are published on pub.dev.
