/**
* Iterate over the result pages of a cursor-paginated Web API method. This method can return two types of values,
* depending on which arguments are used. When up to two parameters are used, the return value is an async iterator
* which can be used as the iterable in a for-await-of loop. When three or four parameters are used, the return
* value is a promise that resolves at the end of iteration. The third parameter, `shouldStop`, is a function that is
* called with each `page` and can end iteration by returning `true`. The fourth parameter, `reduce`, is a function
* that is called with three arguments: `accumulator`, `page`, and `index`. The `accumulator` is a value of any type
* you choose, but it will contain `undefined` when `reduce` is called for the first time. The `page` argument and
* `index` arguments are exactly what they say they are. The `reduce` function's return value will be passed in as
* `accumulator` the next time it's called, and the returned promise will resolve to the last value of `accumulator`.
*
* The for-await-of syntax is part of ES2018. It is available natively in Node starting with v10.0.0. You may be able
* to use it in earlier JavaScript runtimes by transpiling your source with a tool like Babel. However, the
* transpiled code will likely sacrifice performance.

* @param reduce - a callback that can be used to accumulate a value that the return promise is resolved to

/**
* Stream markdown text into a conversation.
*
* @description The "chatStream" method starts a new chat stream in a conversation that can be appended to. After appending an entire message, the stream can be stopped with concluding arguments such as "blocks" for gathering feedback.
*
* The "markdown_text" content is appended to a buffer before being sent to the recipient, with a default buffer size of "256" characters. Setting the "buffer_size" value to a smaller number sends more frequent updates for the same amount of characters, but might reach rate limits more often.
*
* @example
* const streamer = client.chatStream({
* channel: "C0123456789",
* thread_ts: "1700000001.123456",
* recipient_team_id: "T0123456789",
* recipient_user_id: "U0123456789",
* });
* await streamer.append({
* markdown_text: "**hello wo",
* });
* await streamer.append({
* markdown_text: "rld!**",
* });
* await streamer.stop();
