Authorize persisted threads with a server-side identity. The route and persistence guidance treat a client-supplied threadId as sufficient to read or write history. In a shared deployment, a caller who knows or guesses another thread ID could hydrate or overwrite that thread. Bind the thread to an authenticated server-side identity or an unguessable capability, verify ownership before both reads and writes, and document the same requirement in the persistence server guidance.

@kolaworld, understood. This is outside the scope of the structured-output persistence change.
Would you like me to open a follow-up GitHub issue for server-side authorization of persisted thread access?

Learning: When using TanStack AI persistence (e.g., persisting/reconstructing chat transcripts) during route handling, do not rely on client-provided threadId as an authorization mechanism. Treat threadId as an opaque lookup key: derive the effective user/session identity from server-side session state, then authorize thread ownership/visibility at the route boundary before any persistence reads or writes. If using `reconstructChat`, ensure `ReconstructChatOptions.authorize` is provided and runs prior to loading persisted transcript/active-run/interrupt data. Documentation snippets may use a literal threadId only to illustrate API shape, but production multi-user endpoints must enforce ownership authorization before persistence access.

Authorize the persisted thread before calling chat().
This example accepts threadId and runId from the client. A multi-user implementation can write to another known thread. Derive the effective identity from server-side session state. Authorize thread ownership before persistence writes. Generate runId on the server when the client does not need to resume a specific run.
Based on learnings: treat threadId as an opaque lookup key and authorize ownership before persistence reads or writes.

fixes#1072
🎯 Changes
Persist completed structured-output parts in ModelMessage history so typed output survives reloads and multi-turn conversations.
Make the chat engine own the canonical terminal transcript, including native-combined output and separate-finalization text plus structured output.
Simplify persistence middleware to save ctx.messages directly instead of reconstructing the terminal assistant message.
Preserve transcript entries added by middleware when appending terminal assistant messages.
Restore persisted structured-output parts through message snapshots and hydration.
Add unit and E2E coverage for structured-output durability, multi-turn history, empty raw-text normalization, and separate finalization.
Update structured-output, middleware, persistence, and API documentation to describe the finalized lifecycle and persistence behavior.
