+Deprecated Features and API Endpoints:
+- /v1/connectors (Managed connectors for RAG)
+- /v1/chat parameters: connectors, search_queries_only


Should we separate this line from the rest? It reads a bit like we're deprecating /v1/chat ?

 Text summarization distills essential information and generates concise snippets from dense documents. With Cohere, you can do text summarization via the Chat endpoint.

-Command R and R+ support a 128k context length and Command A supports a 256k context length, so you can pass long documents to be summarized.


Should we leave command r and r+ models here but mention only the refreshes?

Should we just add a deprecated column like above?

Migrate all documentation from deprecated search_queries_only parameter to modern tool call approach for search query generation. Main Documentation: - fern/pages/text-generation/retrieval-augmented-generation-rag.mdx - fern/pages/text-generation/streaming.mdx - fern/pages/cookbooks/rag-with-chat-embed.mdx - fern/pages/cookbooks/analysis-of-financial-forms.mdx - fern/pages/cookbooks/agentic-rag-mixed-data.mdx Tutorials: - fern/pages/tutorials/build-things-with-cohere/rag-with-cohere.mdx - fern/pages/tutorials/cohere-on-azure/azure-ai-rag.mdx Notebooks: - notebooks/guides/getting-started/tutorial_pt6.ipynb Scripts: - scripts/cookbooks-mdx/rag-with-chat-embed.mdx - scripts/cookbooks-mdx/analysis-of-financial-forms.mdx - scripts/cookbooks-mdx/agentic-rag-mixed-data.mdx Changes: - Replace search_queries_only=True with tools parameter and force_single_step=True - Update response.search_queries to response.tool_calls[0].parameters["queries"] - Maintain original voice, tone and educational flow - Preserve all working code examples and explanations Impact: Users now see modern tool call examples instead of deprecated parameter across all primary RAG documentation.

nit:
I wonder if it's expected to set this page as hidden. I believe then it will return 404 instead of beign available via direct link. (and same for other pages)
In another similar PR we changed hidden field in v1.yml and v2.yml to hide page from navigation but still be available for direct links
