+### @defer
+
+```graphql
+directive @defer(
+  if: Boolean! = true
+  label: String
+) on FRAGMENT_SPREAD | INLINE_FRAGMENT
+```
+
+The `@defer` directive may be provided on a fragment spread or inline fragment
+to indicate that execution of the related selection set should be deferred. When
+a request includes the `@defer` directive, it may return an _incremental stream_
+consisting of an _initial execution result_ containing all non-deferred data,
+followed by one or more _execution update result_ including deferred data.
+
+The `@include` and `@skip` directives take precedence over `@defer`.
+
+```graphql example
+query myQuery($shouldDefer: Boolean! = true) {
+  user {
+    name
+    ...someFragment @defer(if: $shouldDefer, label: "someLabel")
+  }
+}
+fragment someFragment on User {
+  id
+  profile_picture {
+    uri
+  }
+}
+```
+
+#### @defer Arguments
+
+- `if: Boolean! = true` - When `true`, fragment _should_ be deferred (see
+  [Client Handling of `@defer`/`@stream`](#sec-Client-handling-of-defer-stream)).
+  When `false`, fragment must not be deferred. Defaults to `true`.
+- `label: String` - An optional string literal used by GraphQL clients to
+  identify data in the _incremental stream_ and associate it with the
+  corresponding defer directive. If provided, the GraphQL service must include
+  this label in the corresponding _pending result_ within the _incremental
+  stream_. The `label` argument must be unique across all `@defer` and `@stream`
+  directives in the document. Variables are disallowed (via
+  [Defer And Stream Directive Labels Are Unique](#sec-Defer-And-Stream-Directive-Labels-Are-Unique))
+  because their values may not be known during validation.
+
+### @stream
+
+```graphql
+directive @stream(
+  if: Boolean! = true
+  label: String
+  initialCount: Int! = 0
+) on FIELD
+```
+
+The `@stream` directive may be provided for a field whose type incorporates a
+`List` type modifier. The directive enables returning a partial list initially,
+followed by additional items in one or more _execution update result_. If the
+field type incorporates multiple `List` type modifiers, only the outermost list
+is streamed.
+
+Note: The mechanism through which items are streamed is implementation-defined
+and may use technologies such as asynchronous iterators.
+
+The `@include` and `@skip` directives take precedence over `@stream`.
+
+```graphql example
+query myQuery($shouldStream: Boolean! = true) {
+  user {
+    friends(first: 10)
+      @stream(if: $shouldStream, label: "friendsStream", initialCount: 5) {
+      name
+    }
+  }
+}
+```
+
+#### @stream Arguments
+
+- `if: Boolean! = true` - When `true`, field _should_ be streamed (see
+  [Client Handling of `@defer`/`@stream`](#sec-Client-handling-of-defer-stream)).
+  When `false`, the field must behave as if the `@stream` directive is not
+  present—it must not be streamed and all of the list items must be included.
+  Defaults to `true`.
+- `label: String` - An optional string literal used by GraphQL clients to
+  identify data in the _incremental stream_ and associate it with the
+  corresponding stream directive. If provided, the GraphQL service must include
+  this label in the corresponding _pending result_ within the _incremental
+  stream_. The `label` argument must be unique across all `@defer` and `@stream`
+  directives in the document. Variables are disallowed (via
+  [Defer And Stream Directive Labels Are Unique](#sec-Defer-And-Stream-Directive-Labels-Are-Unique))
+  because their values may not be known during validation.
+- `initialCount: Int! = 0` - The number of list items to include initially when
+  completing the parent selection set. If omitted, defaults to `0`. An execution
+  error will be raised if the value of this argument is less than `0`. When the
+  size of the list is greater than or equal to the value of `initialCount`, the
+  GraphQL service _must_ initially include at least as many list items as the
+  value of `initialCount` (see
+  [Client Handling of `@defer`/`@stream`](#sec-Client-handling-of-defer-stream)).
+
+### Client Handling of @defer/@stream
+
+The ability to defer and/or stream data can have a potentially significant
+impact on application performance. Developers generally need clear, predictable
+control over their application's performance. It is highly recommended that
+GraphQL services honor the `@defer` and `@stream` directives on each execution.
+However, the specification allows advanced use cases where the service can
+determine that it is more performant to not defer and/or stream. Services can
+make this determination on case by case basis; e.g. in a single operation, one
+or more `@defer` and/or `@stream` may be acted upon while others are ignored.
+Therefore, GraphQL clients _must_ be able to process a _response_ that ignores
+individual `@defer` and/or `@stream` directives. This also applies to the
+`initialCount` argument on the `@stream` directive. Clients must be able to
+process a streamed field result that contains more initial list items than were
+specified in the `initialCount` argument.
