RealtimeAdapter

Defined in: packages/ai/src/realtime/types.ts:319

Adapter interface for connecting to realtime providers. Each provider (OpenAI, ElevenLabs, etc.) implements this interface.

Defined here in @tanstack/ai — the shared layer that both provider adapter packages and the client runtime (@tanstack/ai-client) already depend on — so a provider package can describe its realtime adapter without taking a dependency on the client-only @tanstack/ai-client. @tanstack/ai-client re-exports this type for backwards compatibility.
