Enum AssistantContent 

pub enum AssistantContent {
    Text(Text),
    ToolCall(ToolCall),
    Reasoning(Reasoning),
    Image(Image),
}

Describes responses from a provider which is either text or a tool call.

Tagged with "type", exactly like UserContent. The tag is required on deserialize — there is no fallback to the tagless shape 0.41 serialized, so a bare {"text": …} block does not load; see MIGRATING for the tag-insertion recipe.

Variants

Text(Text)

Plain assistant text.

ToolCall(ToolCall)

Tool call requested by the assistant.

Reasoning(Reasoning)

Structured reasoning emitted by the assistant.

Image(Image)

Image content emitted by the assistant.

Implementations

impl AssistantContent

pub fn text(text: impl Into<String>) -> Self

Helper constructor to make creating assistant text content easier.

pub fn image_base64( data: impl Into<String>, media_type: Option<ImageMediaType>, detail: Option<ImageDetail>, ) -> Self

Helper constructor to make creating assistant image content easier.

pub fn tool_call( id: impl Into<String>, name: impl Into<String>, arguments: Value, ) -> Self

Helper constructor to make creating assistant tool call content easier.

id is the provider-issued identifier when one exists; an empty id records no provider id and mints the correlation handle.

pub fn tool_call_with_call_id( id: impl Into<String>, call_id: String, name: impl Into<String>, arguments: Value, ) -> Self

Dual-identifier variant (OpenAI Responses): id is the output-item handle (fc_…), call_id the correlator (call_…).

pub fn reasoning(reasoning: impl AsRef<str>) -> Self
