fix(opencode): accept answer_commit list inputs sent as JSON strings - #1701
In Analyst mode with Altimate Base, the model sometimes sends answer_commit's fields (and asked) as a JSON-encoded string instead of an array. Validation then fails with fields: Invalid input: expected array, received string. The analysis finishes, but the user never gets the answer. The trace is in #1700.
The tool's z.preprocess already accepts "true"/"false" strings for answer_only. This PR makes it also decode fields, asked, rows, unresolved and readings when one arrives as a string that starts with [ or { and parses as JSON. A string is never a valid value for those keys, so nothing that passes validation today behaves differently. The decoded value still goes through the full schema, and invalid JSON is left as it is, so it still fails with the normal error.
The existing answer_commit suites pass (tool, conjunction, checks and agent: 367 tests). tsgo --noEmit is clean, and the pre-push typecheck passes.
Ran it from source on macOS against jaffle_shop_duckdb with Altimate Base in Analyst mode. Before the fix the session ended with the expected array error (twice). After it, answer_commit succeeded and the answer was rendered.
Cost side effects
None. It only parses tool-call arguments locally, and adds no model calls, queries or cloud resources.
Screenshots / recordings
N/A (not a UI change).
Checklist
I have tested my changes locally
I have not included unrelated changes in this PR
I checked for cost side effects (model calls, queries or cloud resources that grow with user data) and described them, or wrote "none"
I diagnosed and patched this with help from Claude, and verified the behavior myself as described above.
Summary by CodeRabbit
New Features
Structured inputs can now be provided as valid JSON-encoded strings, including fields, rows, questions, unresolved items, and readings. They’re handled like equivalent arrays or objects, while ordinary text values remain unchanged.
Boolean-like answer_only values are recognized, and JSON-encoded inputs are supported when formatting final answers and clarifying readings.
Bug Fixes
Invalid JSON strings and decoded values that fail validation continue to receive the usual validation checks and errors.
…ltimateAI#1700)
Some models (e.g. Altimate Base) send fields/asked/rows/unresolved/readings as
JSON-encoded strings, so every commit failed with "expected array, received
string". Decode them in the existing preprocess before validation; invalid JSON
and plain strings still get the normal error.

Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01WyL6JbJvKGuJD8gT1BWVx3
The answer commit parser now decodes valid JSON strings for fields, asked, rows, unresolved, and readings before validation. MCP answer rendering and reading clarification use the normalized arguments. Tests cover decoding, validation, and output behavior.
The parser decodes valid JSON strings in five selected properties before validation and retains answer_only coercion. Tests cover decoded inputs, validation errors, and JSON-looking string values that remain unchanged.
The normalization change is mergeable with bounded follow-up: schema-validating MCP clients still cannot submit the newly supported string representations, and the test-fixture requirement remains outstanding.

The description follows the required template. It identifies the issue, marks the change as a bug fix, explains the cause and implementation, documents verification, states that there are no cost side effects, includes the UI note, and completes the checklist.
Full details: Linked Issues check
Explanation
Issue #1700 requires JSON-encoded fields, rows, asked, and unresolved values to be decoded before schema validation without loosening the schema. normalizeAnswerArgs decodes those keys and readings only for valid JSON-shaped strings, then parameters performs normal validation. Invalid JSON and plain strings remain unchanged. The focused tests cover the trace shape, metadata decoding, invalid input, plain strings, and post-decode validation. The MCP adapter and server use the same normalization so decoded values remain usable after validation.
Full details: Out of Scope Changes check
Explanation
The changes stay within the #1700 compatibility fix. The adapter and server changes prevent JSON-string fields, rows, and readings from bypassing existing answer rendering and reading elicitation. The added tests cover this behavior. No unrelated production behavior or unrelated tests are shown. The separate DuckDB binding issue remains outside this pull request.

fix(answer_commit): accept list/object inputs sent as JSON strings (#1700)
fix(opencode): accept answer_commit list inputs sent as JSON strings
Nov 9, 2026
The two follow-up commits address every finding from the previous pass. normalizeAnswerArgs is now exported and applied by both raw-argument readers: finalAnswerText (adapter.ts:235) counts decoded fields, and clarifyReading (server.ts:188) reads decoded readings, so the JSON-string path now behaves identically to the array path. The decoder stays idempotent (arrays/booleans pass through unchanged), only touches keys whose schemas are arrays/objects, and non-object input is returned untouched, so the added casts cannot misbehave at runtime. Covered by new adapter-level and elicitation-level tests; no other consumer reads raw answer_commit args, and no cost side effects were added.

The latest commit adds the readings/asked JSON-string test, closing the prior coverage gap. The decoder itself remains sound; the one open issue is where it runs relative to the shipped MCP raw-argument readers.
Decoding only inside the Zod parser leaves the shipped MCP path's raw-arg readers (finalAnswerText's Array.isArray(args.fields) at adapter.ts:236, clarifyReading's Array.isArray(args?.readings) at server.ts:186) seeing strings. A JSON-string fields commit renders the basis/**Answer:** label into the FINAL ANSWER instead of answer-only text; a JSON-string readings skips the two-reading elicitation. record(name, result, args, request) passes the raw args to finalAnswerText, and clarifyReading receives request.params.arguments, so neither sees the decoded shape.

The decode helper itself is sound: it touches only the five declared keys, leaves invalid JSON and JSON-looking answer/table values untouched, and decoded values still pass the full schema (including the ""/[]/{} filler handling). Both findings concern where the decode lives and its test coverage, not the helper's logic.
Decoding only inside the Zod parser leaves the shipped MCP path's raw-arg readers (finalAnswerText's Array.isArray(args.fields), clarifyReading's Array.isArray(args.readings)) seeing strings: JSON-string fields commits render basis/labels into the FINAL ANSWER instead of answer-only text, and JSON-string readings skip the two-reading elicitation.
Good catch, added a test that sends readings (and asked) as JSON strings and checks they're decoded into result metadata. It fails without the fix and passes with it.
56-111: Trivial · Functional Correctness · Low value
Add a JSON-string readings test.
No deterministic test sends a nonempty readings array as a JSON string. Removing readings from JSON_SHAPED_KEYS could therefore go undetected. Execute a commit with a stringified array and assert the decoded metadata.

Thanks for the reviews. Addressed in the latest commits:
MCP raw-argument readers (Kilo, CodeRabbit): the decode step is exported as normalizeAnswerArgs and used in finalAnswerText (adapter.ts) and clarifyReading (server.ts). Added tests for both; they fail without the change.
Nested ternary (@dev-punia-altimate): now an if/else, same behaviour. The existing answer_only tests cover every coerced value.
Docstrings added for normalizeAnswerArgs and decodeJsonShaped.
testEffect (CodeRabbit): I kept the new test in the same Promise-based style as the other 50 tool.execute tests in answer-commit.test.ts, for consistency. Happy to switch if you'd prefer.

Type of change
What does this PR do?
In Analyst mode with Altimate Base, the model sometimes sends
answer_commit'sfields(andasked) as a JSON-encoded string instead of an array. Validation then fails withfields: Invalid input: expected array, received string. The analysis finishes, but the user never gets the answer. The trace is in #1700.The tool's
z.preprocessalready accepts"true"/"false"strings foranswer_only. This PR makes it also decodefields,asked,rows,unresolvedandreadingswhen one arrives as a string that starts with[or{and parses as JSON. A string is never a valid value for those keys, so nothing that passes validation today behaves differently. The decoded value still goes through the full schema, and invalid JSON is left as it is, so it still fails with the normal error.How did you verify your code works?
