What is Streamed Responses?
Streamed and unstreamed responses describe how an AI agent sends its answer to the user. With a streamed response, the agent starts sending words as soon as it generates them. The user sees the text grow on the screen in real time. An unstreamed response waits until the whole answer is ready, then sends it all at once. This makes the code on the client side simpler and is easier to cache or log, but the user must wait longer, especially for big outputs.
