+
+```graphql
+directive @defer(
+  label: String
+  if: Boolean! = true
+) on FRAGMENT_SPREAD | INLINE_FRAGMENT
+```
+
+The `@defer` directive may be provided for fragment spreads and inline fragments
+to inform the executor to delay the execution of the current fragment to
+indicate deprioritization of the current fragment. A query with `@defer`
+directive will cause the request to potentially return multiple responses, where
+non-deferred data is delivered in the initial response and data deferred is
+delivered in a subsequent response. `@include` and `@skip` take precedence over
+`@defer`.
+
+```graphql example
+query myQuery($shouldDefer: Boolean) {
+  user {
+    name
+    ...someFragment @defer(label: "someLabel", if: $shouldDefer)
+  }
+}
+fragment someFragment on User {
+  id
+  profile_picture {
+    uri
+  }
+}
+```
+
+#### @defer Arguments
+
+- `if: Boolean! = true` - When `true`, fragment _should_ be deferred (See
+  [related note](#note-088b7)). When `false`, fragment will not be deferred and
+  data will be included in the initial response. Defaults to `true` when
+  omitted.
+- `label: String` - May be used by GraphQL clients to identify the data from
+  responses and associate it with the corresponding defer directive. If
+  provided, the GraphQL Server must add it to the corresponding payload. `label`
+  must be unique label across all `@defer` and `@stream` directives in a
+  document. `label` must not be provided as a variable.
+
+### @stream
+
+```graphql
+directive @stream(
+  label: String
+  if: Boolean! = true
+  initialCount: Int = 0
+) on FIELD
+```
+
+The `@stream` directive may be provided for a field of `List` type so that the
+backend can leverage technology such as asynchronous iterators to provide a
+partial list in the initial response, and additional list items in subsequent
+responses. `@include` and `@skip` take precedence over `@stream`.
+
+```graphql example
+query myQuery($shouldStream: Boolean) {
+  user {
+    friends(first: 10) {
+      nodes @stream(label: "friendsStream", initialCount: 5, if: $shouldStream)
+    }
+  }
+}
+```
+
+#### @stream Arguments
+
+- `if: Boolean! = true` - When `true`, field _should_ be streamed (See
+  [related note](#note-088b7)). When `false`, the field will not be streamed and
+  all list items will be included in the initial response. Defaults to `true`
+  when omitted.
+- `label: String` - May be used by GraphQL clients to identify the data from
+  responses and associate it with the corresponding stream directive. If
+  provided, the GraphQL Server must add it to the corresponding payload. `label`
+  must be unique label across all `@defer` and `@stream` directives in a
+  document. `label` must not be provided as a variable.
+- `initialCount: Int` - The number of list items the server should return as
+  part of the initial response. If omitted, defaults to `0`. A field error will
+  be raised if the value of this argument is less than `0`.
+
+Note: The ability to defer and/or stream parts of a response 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 servers honor the `@defer` and `@stream`
+directives on each execution. However, the specification allows advanced use
+cases where the server can determine that it is more performant to not defer
+and/or stream. Therefore, GraphQL clients _must_ be able to process a response
+that ignores the `@defer` and/or `@stream` directives. This also applies to the
+`initialCount` argument on the `@stream` directive. Clients _must_ be able to
+process a streamed response that contains a different number of initial list
+items than what was specified in the `initialCount` argument.

+### Defer And Stream Directives Are Used On Valid Root Field
+
+** Formal Specification **
+
+- For every {directive} in a document.
+- Let {directiveName} be the name of {directive}.
+- Let {mutationType} be the root Mutation type in {schema}.
+- Let {subscriptionType} be the root Subscription type in {schema}.
+- If {directiveName} is "defer" or "stream":
+  - The parent type of {directive} must not be {mutationType} or
+    {subscriptionType}.
+
+**Explanatory Text**
+
+The defer and stream directives are not allowed to be used on root fields of the
+mutation or subscription type.
+
+For example, the following document will not pass validation because `@defer`
+has been used on a root mutation field:
+
+```raw graphql counter-example
+mutation {
+  ... @defer {
+    mutationField
+  }
+}
+```
+
+### Defer And Stream Directives Are Used On Valid Operations
+
+** Formal Specification **
+
+- Let {subscriptionFragments} be the empty set.
+- For each {operation} in a document:
+  - If {operation} is a subscription operation:
+    - Let {fragments} be every fragment referenced by that {operation}
+      transitively.
+    - For each {fragment} in {fragments}:
+      - Let {fragmentName} be the name of {fragment}.
+      - Add {fragmentName} to {subscriptionFragments}.
+- For every {directive} in a document:
+  - If {directiveName} is not "defer" or "stream":
+    - Continue to the next {directive}.
+  - Let {ancestor} be the ancestor operation or fragment definition of
+    {directive}.
+  - If {ancestor} is a fragment definition:
+    - If the fragment name of {ancestor} is not present in
+      {subscriptionFragments}:
+      - Continue to the next {directive}.
+  - If {ancestor} is not a subscription operation:
+    - Continue to the next {directive}.
+  - Let {if} be the argument named "if" on {directive}.
+  - {if} must be defined.
+  - Let {argumentValue} be the value passed to {if}.
+  - {argumentValue} must be a variable, or the boolean value "false".
+
+**Explanatory Text**
+
+The defer and stream directives can not be used to defer or stream data in
+subscription operations. If these directives appear in a subscription operation
+they must be disabled using the "if" argument. This rule will not permit any
+defer or stream directives on a subscription operation that cannot be disabled
+using the "if" argument.
+
+For example, the following document will not pass validation because `@defer`
+has been used in a subscription operation with no "if" argument defined:
+
+```raw graphql counter-example
+subscription sub {
+  newMessage {
+    ... @defer {
+      body
+    }
+  }
+}
+```
+
+### Defer And Stream Directive Labels Are Unique
+
+** Formal Specification **
+
+- Let {labelValues} be an empty set.
+- For every {directive} in the document:
+  - Let {directiveName} be the name of {directive}.
+  - If {directiveName} is "defer" or "stream":
+    - For every {argument} in {directive}:
+      - Let {argumentName} be the name of {argument}.
+      - Let {argumentValue} be the value passed to {argument}.
+      - If {argumentName} is "label":
+        - {argumentValue} must not be a variable.
+        - {argumentValue} must not be present in {labelValues}.
+        - Append {argumentValue} to {labelValues}.
+
+**Explanatory Text**
+
+The `@defer` and `@stream` directives each accept an argument "label". This
+label may be used by GraphQL clients to uniquely identify response payloads. If
+a label is passed, it must not be a variable and it must be unique within all
+other `@defer` and `@stream` directives in the document.
+
+For example the following document is valid:
+
+```graphql example
+{
+  dog {
+    ...fragmentOne
+    ...fragmentTwo @defer(label: "dogDefer")
+  }
+  pets @stream(label: "petStream") {
+    name
+  }
+}
+
+fragment fragmentOne on Dog {
+  name
+}
+
+fragment fragmentTwo on Dog {
+  owner {
+    name
+  }
+}
+```
+
+For example, the following document will not pass validation because the same
+label is used in different `@defer` and `@stream` directives.:
+
+```raw graphql counter-example
+{
+  dog {
+    ...fragmentOne @defer(label: "MyLabel")
+  }
+  pets @stream(label: "MyLabel") {
+    name
+  }
+}
+
+fragment fragmentOne on Dog {
+  name
+}
+```
+
+### Stream Directives Are Used On List Fields
+
+**Formal Specification**
+
+- For every {directive} in a document.
+- Let {directiveName} be the name of {directive}.
+- If {directiveName} is "stream":
+  - Let {adjacent} be the AST node the directive affects.
+  - {adjacent} must be a List type.
+
+**Explanatory Text**
+
+GraphQL directive locations do not provide enough granularity to distinguish the
+type of fields used in a GraphQL document. Since the stream directive is only
+valid on list fields, an additional validation rule must be used to ensure it is
+used correctly.
+
+For example, the following document will only pass validation if `field` is
+defined as a List type in the associated schema.
+
+```graphql counter-example
+query {
+  field @stream(initialCount: 0)
+}
+```
