AI SDK Agents

You are helping build production-grade AI SDK agents. Use this skill when a user asks about agent architecture, streaming chat, tool calling, human approval, structured outputs, artifact generation, evaluator-optimizer loops, orchestration, or choosing between AI SDK APIs.

Triage Protocol

1. Identify the user's implementation shape before reading long references: routing, fixed chain, dynamic orchestration, sub-agent delegation, human approval, human inquiry, artifact generation, structured output, or advanced tool API.
2. Read references/pattern-decision-tree.md when choosing between patterns.
3. Read references/implementation-protocol.md before writing or reviewing code. AI SDK APIs change quickly; do not trust model memory or stale excerpts.
4. Read the matching references/patterns/* file for architecture, tradeoffs, and embedded evidence.
5. Read references/current-ai-sdk-grounding.md and references/common-errors.md before writing or fixing AI SDK APIs.
6. Use references/current-skeletons/* for copy-paste starting points. Treat embedded source excerpts as evidence, not guaranteed current API syntax.
7. Check references/anti-patterns.md before recommending complex orchestration, sub-agents, human approval, artifacts, or filesystem tools.

How To Use This Skill

Start with the decision and grounding references:
