}

A content item in the generation result.

Variants

Text

Generated text.

Fields

text: String

provider_metadata: Option<ProviderMetadata>

ToolCall

A tool call requested by the model.

Fields

tool_call_id: String

tool_name: String

input: String

The model’s raw argument text, exactly as the provider delivered it (possibly malformed). Providers never parse it — generate_text owns parsing, schema validation, and repair.

Always serializes as a JSON string. Deserializes a JSON string (the current wire shape) unchanged, and also re-serializes the pre-refactor shape — an already-parsed JSON value — to its compact JSON text, so a GenerateResult persisted before this field became a String keeps loading. See docs/api/gaps.md §9.

provider_executed: Option<bool>

Whether the tool call will be executed by the provider. If false/unset, the tool call is executed by the client.

dynamic: Option<bool>

Whether the tool is dynamic (defined at runtime, e.g. MCP tools).

thought_signature: Option<String>

Provider-assigned thought signature (e.g. Google Gemini thoughtSignature). Must be echoed back verbatim on the follow-up turn when the tool result is sent.

provider_metadata: Option<ProviderMetadata>

Additional provider-specific metadata for the tool call.

Source

A source / citation (e.g. URL citation from search-preview models).

Fields

id: String

source_type: String

url: Option<String>

title: Option<String>

provider_metadata: Option<ProviderMetadata>

Reasoning

A reasoning / thinking segment produced by the model.

Mirrors the Vercel AI SDK reasoning content type. provider_metadata carries provider-specific data such as the Anthropic thinking-block signature (providerMetadata.anthropic.signature).

Fields

text: String

provider_metadata: Option<ProviderMetadata>

File

A file generated by the model (e.g. an image or document).

Mirrors the Vercel AI SDK file content type. data is a tagged union covering base64 data, URL, or provider reference.

Fields

data: FileData

media_type: String

provider_metadata: Option<ProviderMetadata>

ToolResult

A tool result from a provider-executed tool (e.g. xAI file_search, web_search). Emitted alongside the preceding ToolCall when the provider executes the tool server-side.

Fields

tool_call_id: String

tool_name: String

result: Value

is_error: Option<bool>

Whether the result is an error or error message.

preliminary: Option<bool>

Whether the result is preliminary (replaces prior, e.g. image previews).

dynamic: Option<bool>

Whether the tool is dynamic (defined at runtime, e.g. MCP tools).

provider_metadata: Option<ProviderMetadata>

Additional provider-specific metadata for the tool result.

Trait Implementations

impl Clone for GenerateContent

fn clone(&self) -> Self

Returns a duplicate of the value.

fn clone_from(&mut self, source: &Self)

Performs copy-assignment from source.

impl Debug for GenerateContent

fn fmt(&self, f: &mut Formatter<'_>) -> Result

Formats the value using the given formatter.

impl<'de> Deserialize<'de> for GenerateContent

fn deserialize<__D>(__deserializer: __D) -> Result<Self, __D::Error>

where __D: Deserializer<'de>,

Deserialize this value from the given Serde deserializer.

impl PartialEq for GenerateContent

fn eq(&self, other: &Self) -> bool

Equality operator ==.

fn ne(&self, other: &Rhs) -> bool

Inequality operator !=.

impl Serialize for GenerateContent

fn serialize<__S>(&self, __serializer: __S) -> Result<__S::Ok, __S::Error>

where __S: Serializer,

Serialize this value into the given Serde serializer.

impl StructuralPartialEq for GenerateContent

impl TS for GenerateContent

type WithoutGenerics = GenerateContent

If this type does not have generic parameters, then WithoutGenerics should just be Self. If the type does have generic parameters, then all generic parameters must be replaced with a dummy type, e.g ts_rs::Dummy or ().
The only requirement for these dummy types is that EXPORT_TO must be None.

type OptionInnerType = GenerateContent

If the implementing type is std::option::Option<T>, then this associated type is set to T. All other implementations of TS should set this type to Self instead.

fn ident(cfg: &Config) -> String

Identifier of this type, excluding generic parameters.

fn docs() -> Option<String>

JSDoc comment to describe this type in TypeScript - when TS is derived, docs are automatically read from your doc comments or #[doc = ".."] attributes

fn name(cfg: &Config) -> String

Name of this type in TypeScript, including generic parameters

fn decl_concrete(cfg: &Config) -> String

Declaration of this type using the supplied generic arguments. The resulting TypeScript definition will not be generic. For that, see TS::decl(). If this type is not generic, then this function is equivalent to TS::decl().

fn decl(cfg: &Config) -> String

Declaration of this type, e.g. type User = { user_id: number, ... }. This function will panic if the type has no declaration.

fn inline(cfg: &Config) -> String

Formats this types definition in TypeScript, e.g { user_id: number }. This function will panic if the type cannot be inlined.

fn inline_flattened(cfg: &Config) -> String

Flatten a type declaration. This function will panic if the type cannot be flattened.

fn visit_generics(v: &mut impl TypeVisitor)

where Self: 'static,

Iterates over all type parameters of this type.

fn output_path() -> Option<PathBuf>

Returns the output path to where T should be exported, relative to the output directory. The returned path does not include any base directory.

fn visit_dependencies(v: &mut impl TypeVisitor)

where Self: 'static,

Iterates over all dependency of this type.

fn dependencies(cfg: &Config) -> Vec<Dependency>

where Self: 'static,

Resolves all dependencies of this type recursively.

fn export(cfg: &Config) -> Result<(), ExportError>

where Self: 'static,

Manually export this type to the filesystem. To export this type together with all of its dependencies, use TS::export_all.

fn export_all(cfg: &Config) -> Result<(), ExportError>

where Self: 'static,

Manually export this type to the filesystem, together with all of its dependencies. To export only this type, without its dependencies, use TS::export.

fn export_to_string(cfg: &Config) -> Result<String, ExportError>

where Self: 'static,

Manually generate bindings for this type, returning a String. This function does not format the output, even if the format feature is enabled.
