) -> Vec<Message>
Expand description
Stable since 0.63.0
Message types for constructing conversations. Transform messages for cross-provider compatibility.

When switching models mid-conversation, message history may contain provider-specific content (e.g. thinking blocks from Anthropic) that the new provider cannot handle. This function converts messages so they are compatible with the target provider’s API.

Key transformations:

  • Thinking blocks → wrapped in <thinking> tags as plain text
  • Tool calls and tool results are preserved unchanged
  • User/assistant message structure is preserved
