Summary

Refs #5724. On 2.64.0, MiMo routes that use the OpenAI Chat adapter (OpenCode Go, Xiaomi MiMo OpenAI Chat, the MiMo token plan, OpenRouter, and similar) show the model's <tool_call><function=exec>…</parameter></function></tool_call> echo as assistant text beside the tool call that actually runs. The main shape in the report is already handled on dev by #5674, which merged after the 2.64.0 cut. Two nearby MiMo echo shapes still leaked on dev:

  • the echo omits </function>: <tool_call><function=exec>CODE</parameter></tool_call>
  • the template puts a newline after the header: <tool_call><function=exec>\nCODE\n</parameter></function></tool_call>

The Command Code reader already accepts both (#5637). The Chat reconciler now reads each block with a linear delimiter scan. The first </tool_call> preceded by </function> closes the block. Only when none appears before the next real block header (<tool_call> followed by <function=) does the first </tool_call> close it. A body that contains a literal <tool_call> or </tool_call> still matches whole, and a long unterminated body no longer backtracks. Its body comparison drops one leading newline, which is template layout. A block is still removed only when its function name and body match a structured call in the same response, so mismatched markup stays visible.

This PR does not cover a response that contains only the markup and no structured call. The Chat adapter still shows that text and runs nothing, as before.

Verification

  • A scratch probe of the reported shape, run against v2.64.0, dev, and this branch, showed the markup visible on every 2.64.0 variant. dev removes the canonical shape but leaks the two variants above. This branch removes all matching variants.
  • bun test ./tests/adapters/openai/openai-chat-serialized-tool-call-content.test.ts: 7 pass. The two new variant cases fail with the source change reverted. Streaming and buffered paths are covered, plus guards for a mismatched body, a literal <tool_call>/</tool_call> inside a body, and an unclosed block followed by a closed one.
  • bun test ./tests/adapters/openai/ ./tests/responses/responses-chat-tool-call-content.test.ts ./tests/adapters/command-code: 479 pass, 0 fail.
  • The scan is linear: a 320 KB unterminated whitespace body takes under 1 ms, and 32,000 stray </tool_call> closers take about 4 ms (scratch timing).
  • bun run typecheck, bun run structure:check, bun run privacy:scan, the file-size ratchet test, and the test-layout/structure SSOT tests all pass.
  • bun run test:changed: 11,642 pass / 396 fail. Every failure comes from environment-bound suites (native-profile-startup, server-*, config-mutation-lock, OAuth, and package-tree). They fail because this worktree sits under ~/.codex, and the test-home guard refuses to create or remove temp trees there. None of them touch this code path. Hosted CI covers them.

Checklist

  • Scope stays focused and avoids unrelated cleanup.
  • Docs or release notes were updated when needed. (structure/providers/chat-compat.md, new ADR-5724; ADR-5548 unchanged)
  • Security-sensitive changes were reviewed for secrets, auth, and unsafe defaults.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Bug Fixes
    • Fixed duplicated tool-call content appearing in chat responses. Matching duplicates are now removed in both streamed and buffered responses, including cases with missing closing tags or a template newline after the function header.
    • Unmatched tool-call-like content remains visible, and literal closing-tag text inside a matching call no longer prevents duplicate removal.
  • Documentation
    • Clarified how serialized tool-call content is handled, including supported formatting variations and how block boundaries are identified.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

OpenAI Chat tool-call parsing now recognizes additional serialized block forms and normalizes their bodies before matching them with structured calls. Tests cover streamed and buffered parsing. The compatibility documentation and ADR describe the parsing behavior.

- Why: Agreement between both representations is deterministic and avoids changing ordinary commentary, mismatched markup, or unrelated providers' valid text.
- Consequences: Matching calls no longer appear twice; same-name/different-body examples remain visible; the small held region is translator-budgeted and emits heartbeats while held; terminal failures retain held text without dispatching tools; malformed concatenated arguments are repaired only for the exact duplicated wrapper shape.
- Follow-up (260924): the streaming hold is bounded (8 KiB of prose after a closed block, 4 MiB total); past a bound held text is released unsuppressed. See structure/providers/chat-compat.md.
- Follow-up (#5724): MiMo echoes that omit `</function>` or put a template newline after the function header are read as the same block, matching the Command Code reader's grammar; suppression still requires the name and body to agree with a structured call.

P1 Badge Record this contract change in a new ADR

This follow-up changes the parsing contract by adding two newly accepted wire shapes, but appends that decision to the existing historical ADR. Move the #5724 reasoning into a new uniquely numbered decision record, link it from the owning section, and leave ADR-5548 unchanged so the recorded history remains accurate.

Fixed in 23ea42e. The #5724 decision is now its own record, ADR-5724, linked from the Serialized tool-call content section. ADR-5548 is back to its original text.

function blockAt(text: string, offset: number): RegExpExecArray | null {
CLOSED_BLOCK.lastIndex = offset;
const closed = CLOSED_BLOCK.exec(text);
if (closed && !closed[2]!.includes(OPEN_TAG)) return closed;

P2 Badge Preserve closed blocks containing a literal opening tag

When a valid closed tool body itself contains the literal <tool_call> string—for example, text("<tool_call>");—this condition rejects the successful closed match and retries the unclosed grammar. That fallback absorbs </function> into the body, so it no longer agrees with the structured call and both streaming and buffered responses expose the entire duplicate markup. Distinguish an actual subsequent outer block from an opening-tag literal inside the freeform body instead of rejecting every closed match containing OPEN_TAG.

Fixed in 23ea42e. The closed-form rejection now looks only for a real block header (<tool_call> followed by <function=), so a body containing text("<tool_call>") is matched whole. The test covers both literal tags, streamed and buffered, plus an unclosed block followed by a closed one.

리뷰 · 우선순위 44 / 80

이 PR은 MiMo가 도구 호출을 글자로 한 번 더 찍을 때, 그 글자를 화면에서 지웁니다.

이슈 #5724입니다. 버전 2.64.0에서 OpenAI Chat으로 연결된 MiMo는 도구를 실제로 실행합니다. 그런데 답 옆에 <tool_call><function=exec>…</parameter></function></tool_call> 같은 글이 같이 남았습니다. 이 기본 모양은 #5674가 dev에 들어간 뒤 이미 지워집니다. 이 PR은 그 옆에 아직 남던 두 모양을 지웁니다.

하나는 </function>이 없습니다. <tool_call><function=exec>코드</parameter></tool_call>입니다. 다른 하나는 함수 이름 다음에 줄바꿈이 하나 있습니다. Command Code는 이미 둘 다 읽습니다 (#5637). Chat도 같은 규칙으로 맞춥니다.

닫힌 모양을 먼저 찾습니다. 코드 안에 </tool_call>이라는 글자가 있어도 블록 전체를 하나로 봅니다. 함수 이름과 본문이, 같은 응답에서 실제로 돈 도구와 같을 때만 지웁니다. 다르면 그 글은 그대로 보입니다. 글자만 있고 도구 호출이 없는 응답은 예전과 같습니다. 글은 보이고, 도구는 돌지 않습니다.

기준 브랜치는 dev입니다. types.tsconfig.ts 나누기와는 겹치지 않습니다.

src/adapters/openai-chat/serialized-tool-call-content.ts blockAt - 닫힌 블록 본문에 <tool_call>이라는 글자가 있으면, 이미 맞은 닫힌 결과를 버립니다. 안 닫힌 규칙으로 다시 읽으면 본문 끝에 </parameter></function>이 붙습니다. 실제로 돈 도구의 입력과 글자가 달라서, 지워야 할 중복이 화면에 남습니다. 예는 text("<tool_call>");입니다. 테스트는 닫는 글자 </tool_call>만 확인합니다. 이 검사는 뒤에 진짜 블록이 하나 더 붙어서 첫 매치가 그걸 삼킨 경우만 걸러야 합니다. 본문 속의 글자까지 걸러서 위 예가 빠집니다. 도구가 잘못 실행되지는 않습니다. 중복 글만 남습니다.

메인테이너의 판단이 필요한 지점

structure/decisions/ADR-5548-serialized-tool-call-content.md에 한 줄을 덧붙였습니다. structure/AGENTS.md는 계약이 바뀌면 새 결정 기록을 두고, 옛 기록은 고치지 말라고 합니다. 지우는 조건은 그대로입니다. 이름과 본문이 같을 때만 지웁니다. 바뀐 것은 MiMo가 찍는 두 철자입니다. 설명 문서 structure/providers/chat-compat.md는 이미 고쳤습니다. 이 한 줄을 유지할지, 새 ADR을 둘지는 정하면 됩니다.

너의 추천

보고된 두 모양은 스트리밍과 한 번에 받는 경로 모두 테스트로 지워집니다. 합치기 전에 blockAt만 고치세요. 본문에 <tool_call>이 있어도 닫힌 매치를 유지하고, 뒤에 또 하나의 <tool_call><function= 블록이 있을 때만 안 닫힌 규칙으로 넘기면 됩니다. 테스트는 지금 </tool_call> 옆에 text("<tool_call>");를 하나 더 두면 됩니다. ADR은 지우는 조건이 그대로라서, 덧붙인 한 줄로 충분합니다.

🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win

Preserve leading newlines in the structured input.

If a structured call has input: "\ncmd" and its serialized block has body cmd, Line 340 removes the newline from the structured input. The bodies then compare equal, so reconciliation hides markup that does not match the call. The stated agreement rule requires mismatched markup to remain visible. (github.com)

Compare the structured input without removing its leading newline. First allow an exact body match; then allow one template newline to be removed from the serialized body only. Add a regression for this mismatched pair.

…ith a header newline

The Chat reconciler removed a duplicated <tool_call> block only in the
canonical <function=NAME>BODY</parameter></function> shape. MiMo also
echoes the block without </function>, and sometimes with a template
newline after the function header; both stayed on screen next to the
structured call that ran (#5724). The block pattern now accepts the
unclosed form after trying the closed one, and the body comparison
drops one leading newline, matching the Command Code reader's grammar.
Suppression still requires the name and body to agree with a structured
call, so mismatched markup stays visible.
Review follow-up. The closed/unclosed regex pair backtracked
quadratically on a long unterminated body and hid a closed body that
merely contained a literal <tool_call>. Blocks are now read by delimiter
scan: the first </tool_call> preceded by </function> closes the block,
and only when none appears before the next real block header does the
first </tool_call> close it. The decision moves to its own record,
ADR-5724; ADR-5548 is left as it was.
A body can carry a full literal header such as
text("<tool_call><function=exec>"). A separate bare block can only begin
at the start of a line, so the scan now stops only at a header there.
A line-start header only bounds an unclosed candidate. When no
</tool_call> appears before it, it is body text, and a closed
</function></tool_call> after it still ends the block.
