Description

A named/forced tool_choice returned the raw model output in tool_calls[0].function.arguments with finish_reason="stop". Kimi K3's XTML tool-call format does not support structural-tag constrained decoding, so forced calls arrive as a free-text preamble plus markup and must be extracted, not passed through. This PR hardens the K3 tool-calling surface:

  • BaseToolParser.extracts_forced_tool_calls (default False): parsers whose forced output still carries native markup opt in to serve-level extraction. K3 opts in. For opted-in parsers the named-choice paths (streaming and non-streaming) run the tool parser: extracted JSON becomes arguments, any preamble becomes content, and the function name always comes from the request (a disagreeing model is logged). If no markup arrived, the text is returned as content and finish_reason stays honest.
  • Named tool_choice now reports finish_reason="tool_calls" on the legacy raw-passthrough path as well.
  • BaseToolParser.finish() (default no-op) is called at end of stream, so a K3 stream that ends before <|close|>tools<|sep|> emits its buffered section instead of silently dropping it; complete call blocks are salvaged from a truncated section.
  • Tag-header regexes stop at special tokens instead of any <, so a literal < inside an attribute value no longer silently drops the call; unparsable call blocks are counted and logged.

Test Coverage

tests/unittest/llmapi/apps/test_tool_parsers.py (CPU-only): new TestForcedToolChoicePostprocessing drives the real chat postprocessors end to end (forced-choice extraction streaming/non-streaming, name mismatch, no-markup fallback, raw passthrough, early-end flush); new TestKimiK3ToolParser cases cover flush, truncated-section salvage, multi-call streaming, and <-in-attribute; TestBaseToolParser covers the default no-op hook. All new behavioral tests fail without the fix.

Dev Engineer Review

  • Hardened Kimi K3 parsing for forced named tool choices.
  • Added BaseToolParser.extracts_forced_tool_calls and the end-of-stream finish() hook.
  • Added forced-call extraction, function-name validation, content fallback, mismatch warnings, and finish_reason="tool_calls" handling.
  • Preserved buffered content and salvaged complete calls from truncated streams.
  • Updated Kimi K3 tag parsing to preserve literal < characters in attributes.
  • Added logging for malformed and unmatched tool-call sections.
  • No configuration or test-list files changed.
  • Review focus: parser state transitions, forced-call behavior, warning conditions, and compatibility with existing parsers.

QA Engineer Review

  • Added test_streaming_post_section_residue_never_leaks in tests/unittest/llmapi/apps/test_tool_parsers.py.
  • The test covers structural residue after completed Kimi K3 tool sections across streaming boundaries.
  • Existing coverage includes forced named-tool postprocessing, name mismatches, no-markup fallback, raw passthrough, early stream termination, truncated-section salvage, multi-call streaming, literal < attributes, and default finish() behavior.
  • No files under tests/integration/test_lists/, test-db/, qa/, or waives.txt changed.
  • Test-list coverage is not declared.
  • Verdict: needs follow-up.

Walkthrough

Changes

The change adds end-of-stream finalization to tool parsers. Kimi K3 recovers complete calls from partial streams and suppresses trailing structural tokens. Chat postprocessors handle raw and parser-extracted forced-tool output for streaming and non-streaming responses.

Forced tool parsing

Layer / File(s) Summary
Parser finalization contract
tensorrt_llm/serve/tool_parser/base_tool_parser.py, tensorrt_llm/serve/tool_parser/kimi_k3_tool_parser.py
Parsers expose forced-call extraction and a finish() hook. Kimi K3 tracks tool sections, suppresses framing, and recovers complete calls from partial sections.
Forced-tool postprocessing
tensorrt_llm/serve/postprocess_handlers.py
Streaming and non-streaming paths distinguish raw JSON from parser-extracted markup, normalize names, limit calls, and return content when markup is missing.
Parser validation
tests/unittest/llmapi/apps/test_tool_parsers.py
Parameterized tests verify that post-section structural residue does not leak from fragmented Kimi K3 streams.

Estimated code review effort: 4 (Complex) | ~45 minutes

Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to 8b357

The parser changes are mergeable with owner awareness: warning messages for forced-choice and malformed-call handling may omit relevant values because their placeholders are not interpolated, making troubleshooting harder. This is a bounded diagnostics risk, not a correctness or availability blocker.

Add coverage for forced-choice edge cases.

Changed tests:

  • TestBaseToolParser.test_finish_default_noop
  • TestBaseToolParser.test_extracts_forced_tool_calls_default_false
  • Seven tests in TestKimiK3ToolParser: test_extracts_forced_tool_calls, test_streaming_early_end_flush, test_streaming_early_end_flush_salvages_complete_calls, test_finish_after_complete_section_is_empty, test_finish_flushes_held_partial_bot_token_as_text, test_streaming_multiple_calls_split_across_chunks, and test_literal_lt_in_attribute_value
  • Seven tests in TestForcedToolChoicePostprocessing: test_forced_choice_k3_extracts_arguments, test_forced_choice_k3_name_mismatch_uses_request_name, test_forced_choice_k3_no_markup_returns_content, test_forced_choice_raw_passthrough_keeps_text_as_arguments, test_forced_choice_k3_streaming_extracts, test_streaming_early_end_flushes_buffered_call, and test_forced_choice_k3_streaming_no_markup_is_content

No test functions were removed. The module is listed in tests/integration/test_lists/test-db/l0_cpu.yml and uses the module-level pytest.mark.cpu_only marker.

Coverage is insufficient. Add assertions for malformed-call warning counts and a multi-call forced-choice postprocessing test.

352-357: 🗄️ Data Integrity & Integration | 🔵 Trivial | ⚡ Quick win

Document the single-item assumption behind calls[:1].

calls[:1] keeps only the first ToolCallItem of each streaming increment. This is safe for kimi_k3, because it emits one complete ToolCallItem per call. Other parsers split one call across two items: a name item with empty parameters, then an arguments item. If such a parser later sets extracts_forced_tool_calls = True, this truncation drops the arguments item and the client receives a tool call with empty arguments.

Record this requirement on BaseToolParser.extracts_forced_tool_calls, so future opt-ins know the contract.

Re the auto-generated QA review's "test-list coverage is not declared / needs follow-up": this is a false positive. tests/unittest/llmapi/apps/test_tool_parsers.py has a module-level pytestmark = pytest.mark.cpu_only and is already registered by file path in tests/integration/test_lists/test-db/l0_cpu.yml. The list entry is file-level (no per-test enumeration), so the new TestKimiK3ToolParser and TestForcedToolChoicePostprocessing cases are collected on the L0 CPU stage automatically — no test-list change is required.

Forced/named tool_choice previously returned the raw model output in
tool_calls[0].function.arguments and finish_reason=stop. K3 has no
structural-tag grammar for its XTML format, so nothing constrains the
model and the raw text carries a free-text preamble plus markup.

- Add BaseToolParser.extracts_forced_tool_calls (default False) so
  parsers whose forced output still carries native markup can opt in
  to serve-level extraction; KimiK3ToolParser opts in. For opted-in
  parsers, the named-choice paths (streaming and non-streaming) now run
  the tool parser: extracted JSON becomes arguments, the preamble
  becomes content, and the name always comes from the request (a model
  that calls a different tool is logged). If no markup arrived, the
  text is returned as content instead of garbage arguments.
- Named tool_choice now reports finish_reason=tool_calls for the
  legacy raw-passthrough path too.
- Add BaseToolParser.finish() (default no-op), called at end of
  stream, so a stream that ends before <|close|>tools<|sep|> emits the
  buffered K3 section instead of silently dropping it; complete call
  blocks are salvaged from a truncated section.
- Tag-header regexes now stop at special tokens instead of any '<', so
  a literal '<' in an attribute value no longer silently drops the
  call; unparsable call blocks are counted and logged.
- Extend the unit suite: forced-choice-with-preamble (streaming and
  non-streaming, driven through the real postprocessors), name
  mismatch, no-markup fallback, raw passthrough, early-end flush,
  multi-call streaming, and the '<'-in-attribute case.

… tokens

parse_streaming_increment left the structural framing that trails a
completed tools section (<|close|>message<|sep|>, <|end_of_msg|>) in the
buffer. When that residue arrived in a later increment, the no-bot_token
path emitted it verbatim as content, so streaming disagreed with
detect_and_parse (which strips it via _trailing_structural) and regressed
against main on the ordinary success path.

Track a _section_done flag: once a complete section is emitted the K3
message is over, so later text is buffered for finish() to strip instead
of being streamed as content. Add a parametrized test that splits each
residue variant one character per increment.

Also switch the remaining %s-style logger.warning calls in the parser to
f-strings; tensorrt_llm.logger joins its args rather than interpolating,
so those diagnostics printed the raw format string.

`tool_choice = {"type":"function","function":{"name":X}}` must force exactly one
call to X. The serving layer accepted the field but never constrained the model:
it reported whatever was generated as `function.arguments`.

Force the call by prefix-injecting the tool parser's `begin` string into the
rendered prompt so generation starts inside the tool call, and constraining what
follows with JSON-schema guided decoding built from the function's `parameters`.
The post-processor then synthesizes the `tool_calls` entry directly.

Preconditions that would leave the call unenforceable are rejected with 400
rather than silently degraded: no `tools`, no `--tool_parser`, a parser without
structural-tag support, an unknown function name, `prompt_token_ids` (the prefix
cannot be appended to a pre-tokenized prompt), a client-supplied
`response_format`, and no `guided_decoding_backend` configured -- without a
backend no grammar is built and the per-request guided params are dropped, which
would leave the prefix "forcing" the call on its own.

`arguments` is truncated to the first complete JSON value in both the streaming
and non-streaming paths. Guided decoding should stop generation there, but a
model that overruns would otherwise have the enclosing brace, the parser's end
tag and its trailing prose reported as arguments, which the caller cannot parse.
The streaming path buffers and tracks how much it has already sent so it can
stop once the value completes, and sends the id and function name exactly once.

Composed onto the forced-choice split added by NVIDIA#17980: parsers that opt into
`extracts_forced_tool_calls` (Kimi K3) keep their extraction path unchanged;
this change replaces the raw-passthrough branch used by every other parser.
`ChatPostprocArgs.forced_tool_name` is dropped in favour of the existing
`_forced_tool_choice(args)` so the forced call has a single source of truth.
