Ai Sdk 6 Skills

This covers the AI SDK 6 beta migration with solid examples for the new agent abstraction, tool approval flows, and Groq integration for running Llama and other open weight models. The tool approval pattern is genuinely useful if you're building anything that needs user confirmation before executing actions like payments or deletions. The Groq provider examples show how to use fast, cheap Llama models with structured outputs and tool calling. One thing to note is the Vercel AI Gateway section requires a credit card and bills for usage, so factor that into your setup if you're routing calls through it. The migration notes suggest v5 code should mostly work, which is reassuring if you're already using the SDK.

What's New in AI SDK 6?

1. Agent Abstraction (New)

Unified interface for building agents with full control over execution flow, tool loops, and state management.

import { ToolLoopAgent } from 'ai';
import { tool } from 'ai';
import { z } from 'zod';

const weatherTool = tool({
  description: 'Get weather for a location',
  inputSchema: z.object({ city: z.string() }),
  execute: async ({ city }) => ({ temperature: 72, condition: 'sunny' }),
});

const agent = new ToolLoopAgent({
  model: 'groq/llama-3.3-70b-versatile', // or any model
  instructions: 'You are a helpful weather assistant.',
  tools: { weather: weatherTool },
});
