Description

My understanding is typing_extensions comes transitively from httpx only up to python < 3.13. However, the generated code uses it without declaring it as a dependency. So when using python >= 3.13, that causes an import error

Research direction

Start by tracing how dependencies for generated clients are declared and reproduce the import failure with Python >= 3.13. Done means typing_extensions is declared directly and the generated code imports successfully on supported Python versions.
