Vercel's own tooling is quietly fixing the kind of bugs that make production AI apps flaky, and the Deepgram provider is finally honoring the options you thought you were sending.

Eve shipped three patch releases in 24 hours [1][2][3], and the throughline is session hygiene: durable tail replays now close after delivery so framework proxies can't strand local workflow listeners [1], and abandoned browser streams release their listeners instead of piling up warnings [2]. The root fixes land in PRs that bound durable session replays [4] and clean up abandoned web chat streams [5], both worth reading if you've seen MaxListenersExceededWarning in Web Chat restores. On the AI SDK desk, @ai-sdk/deepgram@3.1.0 [6] is a behavior change, not a cosmetic bump: options like keyterm and sentiment were "silently dropped from the /v1/listen request" [7], and diarize no longer defaults to true. The package also widens the callable signature from 'nova-3' to any transcription model [6], so check your TTS voice and language composition before promoting. Next.js is quiet, just canary.2 introducing an options struct for backend storage [8], nothing that should block your day.
