-Update the published packages to support AI SDK v7.
-
-This release moves the package peer ranges from `ai@6` and `@ai-sdk/*@3` to
-`ai@7` and `@ai-sdk/*@4`. Consumers need to update their AI SDK dependencies
-when upgrading these packages.
-
-Only the current implementations were migrated. New optimisations and APIs made
-available by AI SDK v7, such as broader result-shape audits or stream helper
-migrations, are intentionally out of scope for this release.
-
-Top-level API notes:
-
-- `@cloudflare/think` keeps the existing `system`, `onStepFinish`, and
-  `experimental_telemetry` names where callers already use them, while
-  translating to AI SDK v7 options internally.
-- `@cloudflare/think` now also accepts `TurnConfig.telemetry` and forwards it
-  ahead of `experimental_telemetry` when present.
-- `@cloudflare/think` adapts AI SDK v7 `onToolExecutionEnd` events back into
-  the existing `ToolCallResultContext` shape. `stepNumber` is now `undefined`
-  for tool completion callbacks because AI SDK v7 no longer provides that value
-  on the tool execution end event.
+Support both AI SDK v6 and v7.
+
+The `ai` peer range is `ai@^6 || ^7` (and `@ai-sdk/react` is `@^3 || ^4`) across
+`agents`, `@cloudflare/ai-chat`, `@cloudflare/codemode`, and `@cloudflare/think`.
+Consumers can adopt AI SDK v7 or stay on v6 — no forced AI SDK upgrade when
+bumping these packages.
+
+Only the current implementations are covered. New optimisations and APIs made
+available by AI SDK v7 (broader result-shape audits, stream helper migrations,
+etc.) are intentionally out of scope.
+
+How dual-version support works — `@cloudflare/think` calls the AI SDK through the
+option names present in both majors (v7 keeps the v6 names as aliases), and
+normalizes the genuine divergences at the boundary:
+
+- Uses `stepCountIs`, `system`, `experimental_telemetry`, `onStepFinish`, and
+  `experimental_onToolCallFinish` (in v7 this alias resolves to
+  `onToolExecutionEnd` and fires once).
+- The tool-execution-finished event is normalized across majors: v6's
+  `{ success, output, error, durationMs, stepNumber }` and v7's
+  `{ toolOutput, toolExecutionMs }` collapse to one `ToolCallResultContext`.
+  `stepNumber` is `undefined` under v7 (the v7 event no longer provides it).
+- The UI message stream is built via the result's `toUIMessageStream()` method
+  (present in both majors); the standalone `toUIMessageStream({ stream })`
+  helper and `result.stream` are v7-only.
+- The workspace read tool emits `{ type: "file-data", data, mediaType, filename }`
+  model output, accepted by both majors (v7's newer `{ type: "file", data: {
+type: "data", data } }` shape does not exist in v6).
+
+Public API notes:
+
+- `@cloudflare/think` keeps `system`, `onStepFinish`, and `experimental_telemetry`
+  where callers already use them, and also accepts `TurnConfig.telemetry`
+  (forwarded ahead of `experimental_telemetry` when present).
 - `@cloudflare/ai-chat` updates the `AIChatAgent.onChatMessage` callback type
   from `StreamTextOnFinishCallback` to `GenerateTextOnFinishCallback`.
+
+Verified against both `ai@6` and `ai@7`: `@cloudflare/think` type-checks with
+zero errors and its full workers test suite passes under each major.
+
+Known limitations:
+
+- `workers-ai-provider` (Think's default model provider) is a fixed dependency
+  targeting one provider-spec generation. Consumers on `ai@6` who rely on
+  Think's built-in default model may hit a provider-version mismatch; passing
+  their own `LanguageModel` avoids this.
+- `chat@4.31.0` currently declares an `ai@^6` peer and does not yet advertise
+  v7 support; tracked separately.
+- CI should exercise both an `ai@6` and an `ai@7` resolution to guard the matrix.
