Descripción
ReactFire ships a provider and hook set for nine Firebase products and none for Firebase AI Logic (`@firebase/ai`). An app that uses it initializes it by hand, outside the `FirebaseAppProvider` tree the rest of the app runs through.
`src/sdk.tsx` declares `AppCheckProvider`, `AuthProvider`, `AnalyticsProvider`, `DatabaseProvider`, `FirestoreProvider`, `FunctionsProvider`, `PerformanceProvider`, `StorageProvider` and `RemoteConfigProvider`, each with a matching `useX` and `useInitX`. A search of `src/` for `getAI`, `firebase/ai` or `@firebase/ai` returns nothing (control: `FirebaseAppProvider` appears in two files, so the search can return hits).
### Why this surface wants hooks more than most
AI Logic is stream and session shaped, which is exactly the async state a hook is good at and the raw SDK leaves to the caller:
- **`generateContentStream`** returns an async iterable plus an aggregated response promise. Consuming it in React means accumulating tokens into state, and cancelling the in-flight request when the component unmounts. Neither has an obvious idiom today.
- **`ChatSession.sendMessage` / `sendMessageStream`** hold conversation history that is naturally component state, currently kept by hand alongside the session object.
- **One-shot `generateContent`** is the trivial case and falls out of the same binding.
### What it looks like in practice
Both demo apps in this repository hit it. In the ReactFire recipe demo (#798) the AI page is byte-identical to the plain SDK version, because there is no binding to differ: the page calls the SDK directly, taking the `FirebaseApp` from `useFirebaseApp()`. That is a fair outcome rather than a bug, but it is the only page in the comparison where ReactFire has nothing to offer, and a reader notices that the app reaches around the provider tree for one product and through it for the others.
### Scope
Out of scope for now: `LiveSession` and `startAudioConversation`, which are Public Preview. The connect and teardown lifecycle there is a strong hook candidate and worth revisiting once the API is stable, but filing against a preview surface is premature.
### Notes
No existing issue covers this: searches for "AI Logic", "gemini", "vertex" and "genai" in issue titles return nothing across open and closed, with a control search returning results.
Filed at @jhuleatt's request from the 2026-08-24 sync: file AI Logic features that ReactFire does not support as issues so they can be reviewed and prioritized.
Guía de contribución
Línea de trabajo
Empieza por las declaraciones de provider, hook e initializer en src/sdk.tsx y, después, compara la demo de receta de ReactFire de #798 con su uso directo de Firebase AI Logic. Revisa las referencias existentes a FirebaseAppProvider y la superficie de @firebase/ai descrita en el issue. Se considera terminado cuando haya un binding revisado para los casos estables generateContent, generateContentStream y ChatSession, dejando LiveSession y startAudioConversation fuera del alcance.
