Fix status: documented_behavior Limitations: - Derived from SDK source code on main (v2.25.0, 2026-09-22); no issue thread read for this string. Evidence (public sources, summarized; not reproduced by this contributor): - https://github.com/googleapis/python-genai/blob/main/google/genai/_extra_utils.py (official_docs, 2026-09-22, documented_behavior): Raises ValueError telling the user to set config.automatic_function_calling.disable to True to disable AFC or leave stream_function_call_arguments unset.
