Refusing a response whose tool call never receives an identity needed a new
failure code, a change to the default retryable set, and a `[DONE]` gate that
overrode the finish reason a provider had already sent — turning a safe
`max-tokens` truncation into up to five retries. The lenient wire it guarded
against is hypothetical: no report describes a stream that omits identity
entirely, and the pre-existing test for it is labelled as such.
Only `acceptIdentity` and the widened wire types remain. They close the
reported erasure and cannot reach a worse outcome than the previous
assignment, because the set of inputs that assign only narrows.
`LlmRuntime.adapterStream` normalizes a thrown `LlmError` into the same error
`finish` the loop routes to `agent/request-error`, so throwing would reach
retry too. The Note claimed otherwise. Yielding is chosen because it reports
the attempt's billed usage first and matches the neighbouring `EMPTY_RESPONSE`
refusal.
The rejection comment repeats the corrected durability wording, and the
assembler's delta-only fallback carries a TODO for the empty name it still
invents for adapters that never close a tool-call block.
The `MALFORMED_TOOL_CALL` JSDoc claimed nothing durable is written, but the
loop appends an `assistant/chunk` for every yielded chunk; only the assistant
message and tool result are withheld. The bounded-recovery Note still listed
a five-code transient set, and neither Note linked the other.
A keyless `malformed-tool-call-retry` scenario now records the refusal, the
retry, and the absence of a `tool/call` for the failed attempt. A translator
case pins that an already closable block also withholds its `block-end`.
A continuation SSE delta that repeats a tool call's `id` or `name` as an
empty string — or as `null`, which some OpenAI-compatible gateways send —
erased the identity established by the call's first delta. The assembled
block reached the loop with an empty name and failed as `unknown tool ""`,
and the empty `callId` persisted into `tool/result`, which the session
reader refuses on reopen.
`acceptIdentity` accepts only a non-empty string, so a repeated empty or
null field means "no update". A tool call still missing `id` or `name` at
`[DONE]` ends the response with the new retryable `MALFORMED_TOOL_CALL`
code instead of closing an unusable block.
