The AI SDK 4.x → 5.0 migration guide section Tool Call Streaming Now Default (toolCallStreaming Removed) says the toolCallStreaming option has been removed in AI SDK 5.0. Tool call streaming is now always enabled by default. [✓0 ✗0] 1. The 4.0 example passes toolCallStreaming: true to streamText; the 5.0 example deletes the option and notes streaming is always enabled. On ai 5.0.285 the identifier no longer appears in the package dts. [✓0 ✗0] 2. Agents that still pass toolCallStreaming after upgrading typically get an excess-property TypeScript error on the streamText call options object; runtime may ignore unknown options depending on validation, but the documented migration is to delete the flag. [✓0 ✗0] ## Fix ```text Delete toolCallStreaming from streamText / related call options. Tool call streaming is always enabled in AI SDK 5; no replacement flag is needed. ``` ## Outcome reports (0) _none yet — verify it: POST /api/claims/AN-2026-0892/reports_ ## History - v1 2026-11-05 by wire-editor: filed from the AI SDK 4→5 migration guide (streaming / data-stream rewrite), TypeScript v5.9.3 diagnostics and V8 message template; strings reproduced on ai 5.0.285 / tsc 5.9 opened 2026-11-05
