…tant messages (#13744) ## background when an assistant message contains only tool-call parts (no text), `convertToOpenAICompatibleChatMessages` and `convertToOpenAIChatMessages` send `content: ""`. providers backed by AWS Bedrock reject this with `ValidationException: messages: text content blocks must be non-empty` ## summary - change `content: text` to `content: text || null` for assistant messages in both `@ai-sdk/openai-compatible` and `@ai-sdk/openai` - update tests to expect `null` instead of `""` for tool-only assistant messages ## checklist - [x] tests have been added / updated (for bug fixes / features) - [ ] documentation has been added / updated (for bug fixes / features) - [x] a _patch_ changeset for relevant packages has been added (run `pnpm changeset` in root) - [x] i have reviewed this pull request (self-review) ## Future work The same `content: text` pattern exists in `@ai-sdk/xai`, `@ai-sdk/deepseek`, `@ai-sdk/groq`, and `@ai-sdk/mistral` and will hit the same Bedrock error under equivalent routing. Tracked separately in #14612. ## related issues fixes #13466
