Breaking Changes

New Features

- Add Cohere image embeddings
- Add response identity metadata (native response id + provider transport request id)
- Add per-breakpoint cache TTL for Anthropic
- Support strict tool use for Anthropic
Improvements
- Carry the provider transport request id on completion errors
- Expose embedding request options

Upgrade Notes
Hooks must now handle the new portable model-turn termination metadata, and error handling will now preserve response headers on non-success HTTP errors, potentially altering error object structures.
