Nix-config AI SDK Documentation
This skill should be used when working with Vercel AI SDK, AI Gateway, streamText, generateText, generateObject, streamObject, tool calling, or AI SDK providers. Also relevant for "ai-sdk", "@ai-sdk/*" packages, or questions about AI SDK patterns, configuration, and best practices.

This skill provides tools for accessing Vercel AI SDK documentation and AI Gateway model information. Use the bundled scripts to discover available documentation pages and fetch their full content.
Overview
The Vercel AI SDK documentation lives at
ai-sdk.dev and covers:
- Core SDK (
package) - generating text, streaming, tool calling, embeddingsai - UI integrations - React hooks, streaming UI components
- RSC - React Server Components integration
- Providers - Configuration for OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, and 30+ other providers
- AI Gateway - Vercel's multi-provider routing service
The documentation is large (600+ pages) and frequently updated. Rather than relying on stale knowledge, always use the scripts to fetch current documentation.
Scripts
All scripts are located in
${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/skills/ai-sdk-docs/scripts/.
list-docs.sh
Discover available documentation pages.
Usage:
# List all pages grouped by category ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/skills/ai-sdk-docs/scripts/list-docs.sh # List pages in a specific category ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/skills/ai-sdk-docs/scripts/list-docs.sh docs ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/skills/ai-sdk-docs/scripts/list-docs.sh cookbook ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/skills/ai-sdk-docs/scripts/list-docs.sh providers
Categories:
- Core documentation (concepts, guides, API reference)docs
- Code examples by framework (Next.js, Node.js, etc.)cookbook
- Provider-specific setup and configurationproviders
- UI component library documentationelements
- Third-party tool integrationstools-registry
When to use: Run this first to discover what pages exist. Do not assume documentation structure.
fetch-doc.sh
Fetch the full markdown content of a specific documentation page.
Usage:
# Fetch a documentation page ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/skills/ai-sdk-docs/scripts/fetch-doc.sh /docs/ai-sdk-core/generating-text # Fetch a cookbook example ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/skills/ai-sdk-docs/scripts/fetch-doc.sh /cookbook/next/generating-structured-data # Fetch provider documentation ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/skills/ai-sdk-docs/scripts/fetch-doc.sh /providers/ai-sdk-providers/openai
Input: A documentation path (e.g.,
/docs/ai-sdk-core/tools-and-tool-calling)
Output: Full markdown content of the page
When to use: After identifying relevant pages with
list-docs.sh, fetch the ones that look most relevant to the task.
query-models.sh
Query the AI Gateway models API for available models and their capabilities.
Usage:
# List all models with their provider ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/skills/ai-sdk-docs/scripts/query-models.sh list # List all providers ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/skills/ai-sdk-docs/scripts/query-models.sh providers # List all capability tags ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/skills/ai-sdk-docs/scripts/query-models.sh tags # List models from a specific provider ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/skills/ai-sdk-docs/scripts/query-models.sh --provider anthropic # List models with a specific capability ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/skills/ai-sdk-docs/scripts/query-models.sh --tag vision ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/skills/ai-sdk-docs/scripts/query-models.sh --tag tool-use # Get full details for a specific model ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/skills/ai-sdk-docs/scripts/query-models.sh --details openai/gpt-4o
Model details include: context window, max tokens, pricing, capability tags (vision, tool-use, reasoning, etc.)
When to use: When needing to know what models are available, compare model capabilities, or check pricing/context limits.
Workflow Guidelines
Finding Documentation
- Start with discovery: Run
to see available pageslist-docs.sh - Identify relevant pages: Look for pages whose paths match the topic
- Fetch content: Use
to get full content of relevant pagesfetch-doc.sh - Read multiple pages if needed: Topics often span multiple pages (e.g., a concept page + API reference page)
Important Notes
- Always fetch current docs: Do not rely on potentially outdated knowledge. Use the scripts to get current documentation.
- If a page doesn't appear in
output, it doesn't exist.list-docs.sh - Some pages may not have .md versions: The script will indicate when this happens.
- Documentation is comprehensive: The AI SDK docs include guides, API references, examples, and troubleshooting. Check multiple sections for complete information.
AI Gateway
The AI Gateway is Vercel's unified API for accessing multiple AI providers. Key points:
- Single API endpoint, multiple providers
- Use
to see all available modelsquery-models.sh - Models are identified as
(e.g.,provider/model-name
)anthropic/claude-sonnet-4 - Provider-specific documentation is under
/providers/
