 ### Added
 
-- **Streaming (delta) read/write methods on `Client` for BYOC streaming transforms.**
+- **`StreamingClient` for BYOC streaming (delta) transforms.**
 
-  New methods let an entry point process a Data Lake Object's Change Data Feed continuously instead of reading a bounded snapshot:
+  A dedicated `StreamingClient` (alongside the batch `Client`) lets an entry point process a Data Lake Object's Change Data Feed continuously instead of reading a bounded snapshot.
 
-  - `read_dlo_deltas(name)` / `read_dmo_deltas(name)` – return a streaming DataFrame over the object's change feed.
+  - `read_dlo_deltas()` / `read_dmo_deltas()` – return a streaming DataFrame over the object's change feed.
   - `write_dlo_deltas(name, dataframe)` – start a streaming query that writes each micro-batch to the target DLO and return the `StreamingQuery` handle.
 
+  The shared functions (`find_file_path`, `llm_gateway_generate_text`, `einstein_predict`) are available on both `Client` and `StreamingClient`.

+Your entry point script will define logic using the `Client` object (for batch transforms) or the `StreamingClient` object (for streaming delta transforms), which wrap the data access layers. Both are singletons; a single transform should use one or the other, not both.
 
-You should only need the following methods:
+For a batch transform, use `Client`. You should only need the following methods:
 * `find_file_path(file_name)` – Resolve a bundled file (placed under `payload/files/`) to a `pathlib.Path` that exists. Works the same locally and inside Data Cloud — see [Bundled file resolution](#bundled-file-resolution) below for the full lookup order. Raises `FileNotFoundError` if the file isn't found.
 * `read_dlo(name)` – Read from a Data Lake Object by name
 * `read_dmo(name)` – Read from a Data Model Object by name
 * `write_to_dlo(name, spark_dataframe, write_mode)` – Write to a Data Model Object by name with a Spark dataframe
 * `write_to_dmo(name, spark_dataframe, write_mode)` – Write to a Data Lake Object by name with a Spark dataframe
 
-For streaming (delta) transforms, the streaming counterparts are:
-* `read_dlo_deltas(name)` – Read the streaming change feed (deltas) of a Data Lake Object as a streaming DataFrame
-* `read_dmo_deltas(name)` – Read the streaming change feed (deltas) of a Data Model Object as a streaming DataFrame
+For a streaming (delta) transform, use `StreamingClient`, which exposes the streaming counterparts:
+* `read_dlo_deltas()` – Read the streaming change feed (deltas) of a Data Lake Object as a streaming DataFrame.
+* `read_dmo_deltas()` – Read the streaming change feed (deltas) of a Data Model Object as a streaming DataFrame.
 * `write_dlo_deltas(name, spark_dataframe)` – Write a streaming DataFrame of deltas to a Data Lake Object; returns the started `StreamingQuery`
