What changed

Google shut down gemini-2.0-flash, gemini-2.0-flash-001, gemini-2.0-flash-lite and gemini-2.0-flash-lite-001 on 2026-06-01. A shut-down model is completely turned off, so generateContent and streamGenerateContent calls fail. This advisory covers calls that pass the model as a parameter, as the @google/genai SDK does (ai.models.generateContent({ model })); google-gemini-2-0-flash-shutdown covers calls that name the model in the path.

What to do

Change the model to gemini-3.6-flash (for gemini-2.0-flash) or gemini-3.1-flash-lite (for gemini-2.0-flash-lite), and re-test prompts and output parsing.
