📝 WalkthroughSummary by CodeRabbit
WalkthroughThe tool parser now filters parsed tool calls against declared tools. It preserves rejected calls as content, retains valid calls in mixed responses, bypasses filtering for empty tool lists, and preserves MiniMax’s unknown-name behavior. ChangesDeclared Tool Call Filtering
Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~20 minutes Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to The change rejects undeclared tool calls during non-streaming parsing, but empty tool lists still produce different results between streaming and non-streaming requests, and mixed batches are not fully protected against losing the rejected call's text. This can yield inconsistent client behavior or hide model output, so the PR needs follow-up or explicit acceptance before merge. Suggested reviewers: Sequence Diagram(s)sequenceDiagram

🔴 Important: Preserve rejected call text in mixed batches.
If calls contains both declared and undeclared names, this branch returns normal_text and drops each rejected call. For normal_text values where parse_complete consumed the tool markup, the undeclared call disappears instead of reaching the client as content. The mixed Mistral test only checks the retained call, so it does not detect this loss.
Change the parser/helper contract to retain raw spans for rejected calls and append them to content while preserving declared calls. Add an assertion that the mixed-batch normal_text contains "bogus_tool".
As per coding guidelines, check inappropriate fallbacks and silent loss.

🟣 Pre-existing: QwenXmlParser and Glm4MoeParser override parse_complete_with_tools for schema-aware coercion but don't call retain_declared_tool_calls, so they still have the same streaming/non-streaming inconsistency this PR fixes for the default-method parsers. Both validate names in parse_incremental (via tool_indices.contains_key) but not in their parse_complete_inner.
Not introduced by this PR — the gap predated it — but worth a follow-up since the PR description says "every parser that already enforces this while streaming enforces it when not streaming too", which isn't quite true for these two. Adding retain_declared_tool_calls at the end of their overrides (the way InklingParser already builds its own allowed_tools set) would close the gap.

Clean fix. The new retain_declared_tool_calls helper is correct, the trait default wires it up properly, and the test suite is thorough (good mutation-checking callout in the PR description).
One 🟣 pre-existing note: QwenXmlParser and Glm4MoeParser override parse_complete_with_tools for schema-aware coercion without calling the new filter, so they still have the streaming/non-streaming gap. Worth a follow-up.

Streaming and non-streaming disagreed about a tool call naming a function
the request never declared. Every parser that validates names in
parse_incremental checks the call against the request's tool list and routes
the text to content instead. The non-streaming path had no such guard:
parse_complete is not given the tool list at all, and the defaulted
parse_complete_with_tools - which the router does call with the tools
(routers/grpc/regular/processor.rs) - discarded them and delegated straight
to parse_complete.
So identical model output produced two different client-visible results:
stream=true -> content, no tool call
stream=false -> tool_calls: [{function: {name: "..."}}] for a function
the client never declared
A client dispatching on function.name was handed a name that was never in
its schema. This is not hypothetical: asked "What is 2+2?" with tools
declared, Llama-3.2-1B emits a tool call literally named "2+2", which e2e
caught on all four engines.
The defaulted parse_complete_with_tools now drops calls whose name is not
among the declared tools, so every parser that already enforces this while
streaming enforces it when not streaming too. Deliberate opt-outs keep
working by overriding the method: MiniMax-M2 forwards unknown names on
purpose so it does not leak <invoke> markup into assistant text, and its
override bypasses the default unchanged.
Three properties keep the change safe. An empty tool list means there is no
declared set to validate against - the parse endpoint and the Go FFI both
allow it - so nothing is filtered. If filtering would remove every call, the
model's original text is returned as content instead, matching the fallback
each parser already uses when nothing parsed. And in a mixed batch, where
some calls are declared and some are not, the dropped calls are
re-serialized into the text rather than discarded, so neither path silently
loses model output - the same content-preservation rule the streaming flush
established.
QwenXmlParser and Glm4MoeParser override parse_complete_with_tools for
schema-aware coercion, which bypasses the default, so they apply the check
explicitly - otherwise the two parsers that most need it (both reject
undeclared names while streaming) would keep the asymmetry.

🔴 Important: Keep empty tool lists consistent with streaming.
When tools is empty, these complete paths retain parsed calls. Their streaming paths build an empty tool index and reject every tool name. The same model output therefore yields tool calls when stream=false and no tool calls when stream=true. Update streaming validation to bypass name filtering when no tools are declared.

🟡 Nit: Assert the rejected call payload.
These assertions pass if the parser preserves only bogus_tool or arbitrary non-empty text. Assert that the rejected raw block, including its arguments, remains in normal_text. This protects the rejected-call content contract.

🟡 Nit: call.function.arguments is already a JSON string (String typed as "Arguments as JSON string" in FunctionCall). Passing it to serde_json::json! treats it as a plain String value, so the arguments get double-encoded in the output:
{"arguments":"{\"x\":1}","name":"bogus_tool"}
instead of:
{"arguments":{"x":1},"name":"bogus_tool"}
This doesn't break anything — the text is just content, not structured data — but it's noisier than it needs to be. If you want the cleaner form:
| &serde_json::json!({ | |
| "name": call.function.name, | |
| "arguments": call.function.arguments, | |
| }) | |
| "name": call.function.name, | |
| "arguments": serde_json::from_str::<serde_json::Value>(&call.function.arguments) | |
| .unwrap_or_else(|_| serde_json::Value::String(call.function.arguments.clone())), |
The unwrap_or_else fallback handles the (unlikely) case of malformed arguments gracefully. Fine to leave as-is if you'd rather keep it simple.

Closing in favour of #2276, which takes the opposite direction. This PR diagnosed the right problem — streaming and non-streaming disagreed about a tool call naming an undeclared function — but unified on the wrong side. Rejecting discards a call the model deliberately made, and rewriting it as text loses the structure the client needs. #2276 forwards it instead. The one qualification #2276 keeps is the reason a blanket forward is not safe: |

Description
Problem
Streaming and non-streaming disagree about a tool call naming a function the request never declared.
Every parser that validates names in
parse_incrementalchecks the call against the request's tool list and routes the text to content instead. The non-streaming path had no such guard —parse_completeis not given the tool list at all, and the defaultedparse_complete_with_tools, which the router does call with the tools (routers/grpc/regular/processor.rs), discarded them:So identical model output produced two different client-visible results:
streamtruefalsetool_calls: [{function: {name: "…"}}]for a function it never declaredA client dispatching on
function.namewas handed a name that was never in its schema.This is not hypothetical. Asked "What is 2+2?" with tools declared, Llama-3.2-1B emits a tool call literally named
2+2. It reproduced on all four engines:The streaming twin passed, because since #2271 the undeclared call surfaces as content there.
Solution
The defaulted
parse_complete_with_toolsnow drops calls whose name is not among the declared tools, so every parser that already enforces this while streaming enforces it when not streaming too. The enforcement lives in the trait default rather than in each parser, because it is one contract, not fifteen.Deliberate opt-outs keep working by overriding the method — that is what overriding it means.
MiniMax-M2forwards unknown names on purpose so it does not leak<invoke>markup into assistant text (minimax_m2.rs:422), and its override bypasses the default unchanged.Two properties keep the change safe:
routers/parse/handlers.rs) and the Go FFI allow it.Prior art
This restores parity with upstream rather than inventing a policy. SGLang's
base_format_detector.py— which these parsers are ports of (// matches Python's structure) — drops unknown names on the non-streaming path by default:and always rejects on the streaming path. SMG ported the streaming half and not the non-streaming half, which is where the asymmetry came from.
Worth noting what upstream's users objected to: sgl-project/sglang#12223, "Forward unknown tool calls instead of silently dropping them (avoid data loss)". The complaint was the silent drop, not the rejection — and upstream's answer was an opt-in flag, not a changed default. This PR keeps the safe default while addressing that complaint directly: a dropped call's text is surfaced as content on both paths, so nothing is lost.
Two deliberate differences from upstream, flagged for review rather than buried:
SGLANG_FORWARD_UNKNOWN_TOOLSand tags forwarded calls withtool_index=-1. Here, opting out is per-parser (override the method, as MiniMax-M2 does). Adding config parity is a reasonable follow-up; it seemed wrong to add config surface in a correctness fix.toolslist filters nothing. Arguably a client that declared no tools receiving a tool call is the most clearly-wrong case, but the parse endpoint and Go FFI legitimately pass an empty list, so tightening that is a separate decision.Changes

_tools-discarding body fails three of the six tests (undeclared_name_never_becomes_a_tool_call,the_llama_2_plus_2_regression,a_declared_call_survives_alongside_an_undeclared_one), so the suite genuinely pins the fix rather than passing incidentally.End-to-end proof
#2274 is stacked on this branch and asserts the contract against live models on all four engines. Its
test_tool_choice_auto_non_streamingfails without this fix (that is how the bug was found) and passes with it, so the pair is self-verifying rather than relying on the unit tests alone.Checklist
