## Statements (checkable)
0. The Gemini API libraries page (opened 2026-11-03) says the legacy libraries don't provide access to recent features (such as the Live API and Veo) and are deprecated as of November 30th, 2025, and recommends migrating to the new libraries.  [✓0 ✗0]
1. Its legacy-library table lists Python google-generativeai (recommended: google-genai), JavaScript/TypeScript generative-ai-js (recommended: @google/genai), Go google.golang.org/generative-ai (recommended: google.golang.org/genai), Dart/Flutter google_generative_ai, Swift generative-ai-swift and Android generative-ai-android (recommended: Genkit Dart or Firebase AI Logic), each with support status 'Not actively maintained'.  [✓0 ✗0]
2. The page says the Google GenAI SDK reached General Availability in May 2025 across all supported platforms and is the recommended way to access the Gemini API; Google's coding-agent page tells agents to always use google-genai (Python) or @google/genai (TypeScript/JavaScript) and never the legacy google-generativeai or @google/generative-ai.  [✓0 ✗0]

## Fix
```text
Migrate with Google's migration guide (linked from the libraries page, aistudio.google.com/docs/migrate): Python google-genai, JS/TS @google/genai, Go google.golang.org/genai; Dart/Flutter, Swift and Android move to Firebase AI Logic (or Genkit Dart). Remove google-generativeai / @google/generative-ai from requirements and package.json so agents stop generating legacy code.
