Key point

AI SDK 7 has evolved into a unified platform for building multimodal agents that goes beyond text.

Details

The TypeScript-based AI SDK 7 has been released. With this update, it has expanded beyond simple model calls and chat primitives into a comprehensive AI agent platform spanning text, audio, image, and video.

Key updates include the following:

  • Agent Development and Execution: Provides Reasoning Control, tool approval, durable WorkflowAgent execution, and sandbox support.
  • Multimodal Support: Includes stable speech/transcription APIs, image generation and editing, and real-time voice (experimental) and video generation (experimental) features.
  • Enhanced Observability: Enables precise monitoring of agent behavior through redesigned telemetry, @ai-sdk/otel, and Node.js tracing channel support.
  • Improved Developer Experience: Supports migration to ESM and Node.js 22 environments through new migration skills and codemods.

As a caution for updating, Node.js 22 or higher is required, and only ESM (ECMAScript Modules) import syntax is supported instead of CommonJS.
