Direzione di ricerca

Inizia da Converter.convert_tool_choice in src/agents/models/openai_responses.py, dove i nomi di strumenti integrati come web_search vengono mappati prima del ramo delle funzioni con nome, e confrontalo con il controllo esistente per shell e apply_patch. Esegui il repro della issue con un httpx2 MockTransport per confermare che tool_choice venga inviato come {'type': 'web_search'} mentre gli strumenti della richiesta contengono solo la funzione. Il lavoro è completo quando uno strumento di funzione configurato di nome web_search produce {'type': 'function', 'name': 'web_search'}, e quando non ci sono strumenti o è configurato un WebSearchTool viene comunque restituito il selettore integrato e tests/models passa.

Descrizione

Please read this first
  • Have you read the docs? Yes
  • Have you searched for related issues? Yes. #4952 fixed this for shell and apply_patch, and computer and tool_search are already gated with tests. The other built-in names were left out.
Describe the bug

An agent on the Responses API has a function tool whose name matches a built-in tool type, for example its own web_search backed by another search API. Setting ModelSettings(tool_choice="web_search") to force that tool sends tool_choice={"type": "web_search"}, which selects the hosted web search tool, instead of {"type": "function", "name": "web_search"}. The request's tools list contains only the function, so the caller's tool can't be forced. The same happens for file_search, web_search_preview, computer_use_preview (with no ComputerTool), image_generation, code_interpreter, mcp and programmatic_tool_calling.

#4952 described exactly this for shell and apply_patch: without a gate, "a function tool named shell or apply_patch would silently stop being targetable".

Repro steps

A real AsyncOpenAI client on an httpx2.MockTransport, printing what's sent:

import asyncio, json
import httpx2
from openai import AsyncOpenAI
from agents import Agent, ModelSettings, OpenAIResponsesModel, RunConfig, Runner, function_tool

def handler(request: httpx2.Request) -> httpx2.Response:
    body = json.loads(request.content)
    print("tools sent      :", [(t["type"], t.get("name")) for t in body["tools"]])
    print("tool_choice sent:", body["tool_choice"])
    return httpx2.Response(200, json={
        "id": "resp_1", "object": "response", "created_at": 0, "model": "gpt-4.1",
        "status": "completed", "parallel_tool_calls": True, "tool_choice": "auto", "tools": [],
        "output": [{"type": "message", "id": "msg_1", "role": "assistant", "status": "completed",
                    "content": [{"type": "output_text", "text": "ok", "annotations": []}]}],
    })

@function_tool(name_override="web_search")
def my_search(query: str) -> str:
    """Search my own index."""
    return "result"

async def main() -> None:
    client = AsyncOpenAI(api_key="x", http_client=httpx2.AsyncClient(transport=httpx2.MockTransport(handler)))
    agent = Agent(name="a", tools=[my_search], model=OpenAIResponsesModel("gpt-4.1", client),
                  model_settings=ModelSettings(tool_choice="web_search"))
    await Runner.run(agent, "find docs", run_config=RunConfig(tracing_disabled=True))

asyncio.run(main())
tools sent      : [('function', 'web_search')]
tool_choice sent: {'type': 'web_search'}
Expected behavior

tool_choice is {"type": "function", "name": "web_search"} whenever a function tool (or handoff) with that name is configured, as already happens for shell, apply_patch, computer and tool_search.

Root cause and a possible fix

Converter.convert_tool_choice maps these strings to built-in selectors before the named-function branch and doesn't look at the configured tools (openai_responses.py#L1856-L1894). The shell/apply_patch branches are gated (#L1895-L1902). The gate below checks that a local function tool with that name exists, not that the built-in is configured, so prompt-managed built-in tools (#1304) keep working:

--- a/src/agents/models/openai_responses.py
+++ b/src/agents/models/openai_responses.py
+# Strings that convert_tool_choice maps to a built-in tool selector without checking
+# whether that built-in tool is configured.
+_HOSTED_TOOL_CHOICE_NAMES = frozenset(
+    {
+        "programmatic_tool_calling",
+        "file_search",
+        "web_search",
+        "web_search_preview",
+        "computer_use_preview",

+        "mcp",
+    }
+)

With the patch, the repro sends {'type': 'function', 'name': 'web_search'}. With no tools, or with a configured WebSearchTool(), "web_search" still maps to {'type': 'web_search'}. tests/models passes (1023 passed, 1 skipped).
