createImagesModels()/ImagesProvider/createImagesProvider() give image
generation the same shape as chat: sync model reads, explicit async
refresh(provider?) with in-flight dedupe, provider-resolved auth, and
never-rejecting generateImages() (failures return AssistantImages with
stopReason error). Auth resolution is shared with the chat side via the
free-standing resolveProviderAuth() in auth/resolve.ts, which also owns
ModelsError; both collections pass their store/context as arguments.
The OpenRouter implementation moves to api/openrouter-images.ts with a
lazy wrapper; openrouterImagesProvider() factory plus
builtinImagesProviders()/builtinImagesModels() land in providers/all.
The ImagesProvider id type alias is renamed to ImagesProviderId
(mirror of Provider -> ProviderId). The old global image API
(getImageModel*, generateImages, registerImagesApiProvider) stays on
/compat, its registration shim repointed at the moved implementation.
README: Quick Start uses builtinModels(), the full streaming event
switch, image generation and the development checklist are restored in
full, image generation documents the new collections with compat noted
for the old API, plus the review fixes (builtinModels options,
credential-store mention for browsers, ImagesModels notes).
The root barrel is now core-only and side-effect free: types,
createModels/createProvider, auth substrate, lazyStream/lazyApi, faux,
utils. Generated catalogs, api-registry, env-api-keys, images, global
stream functions, and per-API lazy wrappers leave the root.
New @earendil-works/pi-ai/compat preserves the old surface verbatim as
a strict superset of the root: api-dispatch stream/complete with env
key injection, the builtin registration side effect (skip-if-present so
it cannot clobber earlier overrides), deprecated getModel/getModels/
getProviders aliases of the new getBuiltin* reads in providers/all,
lazy api wrappers + setBedrockProviderModule, and image generation.
Compat dies with the coding-agent ModelManager migration.
Packaging: exports map gains ./compat, ./providers/*, ./api/*;
sideEffects array lists only the effectful modules.
Old-global imports across agent/coding-agent/examples and pi-ai tests
switch to /compat (path-only; compat is a superset). The coding-agent
extension loader resolves the pi-ai ROOT specifier to compat, so
existing user extensions using the old global API keep working at
runtime until compat is removed. vitest configs alias /compat to src;
browser smoke imports old globals from /compat.
Auth helpers in src/auth/helpers.ts: envApiKeyAuth() (stored key wins,
then env vars in order, with secret-prompt login) and lazyOAuth()
(flow loads on first use through bundler-opaque dynamic imports in
utils/oauth/load.ts; the OAuthAuth flow exports land in phase 4).
There is no OAuth factory toggle: providers that support OAuth always
attach it, advertising costs nothing until login/refresh runs.
createProvider() in models.ts builds providers from parts: single API
implementation or a map dispatched on model.api (mixed-API providers
like opencode and github-copilot); unknown api yields a stream error.
generate-models.ts now emits one providers/<id>.models.ts catalog per
provider (35 files, biome-excluded like models.generated.ts) and
models.generated.ts becomes a generated aggregator, so importing one
provider factory pulls one catalog. Typed getModel globals unchanged.
One factory per built-in provider under src/providers/: envApiKeyAuth
for standard providers, OAuth for anthropic/openai-codex/github-copilot,
ambient ApiKeyAuth for amazon-bedrock (AWS env/profile/IAM) and
google-vertex (explicit key or ADC+project+location).
providers/all.ts: builtinProviders(), builtinModels(), getBuiltin*
re-exports. fauxProvider() factory returns a real Provider for tests;
legacy registerFauxProvider() unchanged.
Stream implementations move from src/providers/ to src/api/, renamed by
API id (anthropic.ts -> anthropic-messages.ts, google.ts ->
google-generative-ai.ts, mistral.ts -> mistral-conversations.ts,
amazon-bedrock.ts -> bedrock-converse-stream.ts). Every module now
exports exactly stream/streamSimple; shared helpers move alongside.
New ProviderStreams dispatch contract in types.ts, lazyApi() wrapper in
api/lazy.ts, and one .lazy.ts wrapper per API. Bedrock's wrapper keeps
the node-only variable-specifier import and setBedrockProviderModule()
(now taking ProviderStreams).
providers/register-builtins.ts deleted; interim until the compat
entrypoint lands, builtin api-registry registration lives in stream.ts
and lazy wrappers are exported from the root barrel. Old per-API lazy
exports (streamAnthropic, ...) are gone; package.json subpaths retarget
to dist/api/.
When Bedrock rejects a request with "data retention mode '<mode>' is not
available for this model", append a pointer to the AWS data retention
documentation so users can configure a supported mode.
Application inference profile ARNs encode the region
(arn:aws:bedrock:<region>:<account>:...) but the provider ignored it,
falling through to AWS_REGION which may point to a different region.
Extract the region from the ARN when present, taking priority over
environment variables.
