Preliminary Tool Results
Return preliminary tool results using async iterables. Stream status updates during tool execution before the final result is available.


Tool API Context
Pass arbitrary context from generateText/streamText to tool execution via experimental_context. Access context in tool execute functions for dynamic behavior.


Tool Call Repair
Repair invalid tool calls using experimental_repairToolCall. Fix schema validation errors without requiring additional steps that pollute message history.


Dynamic Tool
Create dynamic tools with runtime-generated schemas using dynamicTool. Demonstrates unit conversion tools where schema adapts based on conversion type (temperature, length, weight, currency) and supports dynamic model selection.
