AI SDK Documentation
When you need up-to-date information about the AI SDK:
If using ai@6.0.34 or above
Search the bundled documentation and source code in node_modules/ai/:
- Documentation:
grep "your query" node_modules/ai/docs/ - Source code:
grep "your query" node_modules/ai/src/
To find specific files:
glob "node_modules/ai/docs/**/*.mdx"for documentation filesglob "node_modules/ai/src/**/*.ts"for source files
Provider packages (@ai-sdk/openai, @ai-sdk/anthropic, etc.) also include bundled docs in their respective node_modules/@ai-sdk/<provider>/docs/ directories.
When in doubt, update to the latest version of the AI SDK.
Otherwise
- Search the docs:
https://ai-sdk.dev/api/search-docs?q=your_query - The response includes matches with links ending in
.md - Fetch those
.mdURLs directly to get plain text content (e.g.https://ai-sdk.dev/docs/agents/building-agents.md)
Use these resources for current API details, examples, and usage patterns.

Provider-Specific Information (ai@6.0.34+)
For questions about specific providers (OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, etc.), search their dedicated packages:
- Provider documentation:
grep "your query" node_modules/@ai-sdk/<provider>/docs/ - Provider source code:
grep "your query" node_modules/@ai-sdk/<provider>/src/
To find provider files:
glob "node_modules/@ai-sdk/<provider>/docs/**/*.mdx"for provider documentationglob "node_modules/@ai-sdk/<provider>/src/**/*.ts"for provider source files
This is especially important for providerOptions, which are provider-specific settings passed to model calls. Each provider has unique options documented in their package.
