What it does
AI SDK is an agent skill from Compound-inc/rift. Answer questions about the AI SDK and help build AI-powered features. Use when developers: (1) Ask about AI SDK functions like generateText, streamText, ToolLoopAgent, or tools, (2) Want to build AI agents, chatbots, or text generation features, (3) Have questions about AI providers (OpenAI, Anthropic, etc.), streaming, tool calling, or structured output.
Its SKILL.md is about 570 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 2 other files, including reference files (for example `references/common-errors.md`).
It sits in AI & LLM Engineering, covering Structured output and tool calling and Chatbots and conversational support. It works with Vercel AI SDK and OpenAI.
When your agent uses it
- Ask about AI SDK functions like generateText
- Want to build AI agents
- Text generation features
- Have questions about AI providers (OpenAI
Example prompts
- “/ai-sdk”
Workflow steps
2 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.
- Documentation: grep "your query" node_modules/ai/docs/
- Source code: grep "your query" node_modules/ai/src/
What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 4471fb5. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.
Tool permissions
Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.
From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.
Runs code
No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md.
From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.
Network
Hosts in commands or code, which the agent is likely to contact:
ai-sdk.dev
From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.
Credentials
Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.
From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.
Context cost
AI SDK loads about 568 tokens when it runs, and up to ~1.5k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 91 tokens; SKILL.md has 197 words of instructions outside code blocks.
Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.
Safety
Auto-check passed
The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.
Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.
SKILL.md
Its licence (Custom licence) doesn't allow us to republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 197 words (~568 tokens).

How do I install AI SDK in Claude Code?
Run `npx skills add Compound-inc/rift --skill ai-sdk -a claude-code`. Or copy the skill folder (.cursor/skills/use-ai-sdk in Compound-inc/rift) into .claude/skills/ai-sdk in your project. Claude Code loads it when a task matches its description.
How do I install AI SDK in Codex?

Can I use AI SDK in Cursor, Gemini CLI or GitHub Copilot?
Cursor, Gemini CLI, GitHub Copilot and OpenCode also load SKILL.md folders. With the skills CLI, run `npx skills add Compound-inc/rift --skill ai-sdk -a cursor` (or -a gemini-cli, github-copilot or opencode for the others). To copy it by hand, put the folder in .cursor/skills/ai-sdk, .gemini/skills/ai-sdk, .github/skills/ai-sdk and .opencode/skills/ai-sdk in your project.
What does AI SDK need to run?
SKILL.md names no scripts, command-line tools or credentials: AI SDK is instructions for the agent only.
Does AI SDK access the network?
SKILL.md names 1 domain. In commands or code: ai-sdk.dev; the agent is likely to contact it when it follows the instructions. This is read from the text; nothing was executed.
Is AI SDK safe to install?

How many tokens does AI SDK use?
About 568 tokens (SKILL.md is roughly 2.3k characters). Agents keep only the skill's name and description in context until a task matches; then they load SKILL.md in full. Its references folder adds about 945 tokens, read only when the agent opens those files.
