Closes: #1665

Description

  • Convert persisted reasoning and signed thinking blocks into Bedrock Converse reasoningContent instead of the literal [Unknown Block Type] placeholder.
  • Capture MiniMax signature_delta events so the task history can store valid signed thinking blocks for the next tool-loop request.
  • Sanitize MiniMax requests with the existing Anthropic block allowlist: valid signed thinking is preserved while legacy internal reasoning blocks are removed.
  • Keep Claude signature capture out of scope as the separate larger follow-up identified in the issue.

MiniMax's Anthropic-compatible API requires replaying the complete signed thinking block unchanged. Capturing its streamed signature preserves continuity without sending an unsupported internal block shape.

Test Procedure

Using the repository-required Node.js 22.23.1:

pnpm --dir src exec vitest run \
  api/transform/__tests__/bedrock-converse-format.spec.ts \
  api/transform/__tests__/anthropic-filter.spec.ts \
  api/providers/__tests__/minimax.spec.ts \
  core/task/__tests__/apiConversationHistory.spec.ts \
  --maxWorkers=4
pnpm --dir src check-types
pnpm --dir src exec eslint --prune-suppressions --max-warnings=0 \
  api/transform/bedrock-converse-format.ts \
  api/transform/__tests__/bedrock-converse-format.spec.ts \
  api/providers/minimax.ts \
  api/providers/__tests__/minimax.spec.ts

Results: 4 test files / 69 tests passed; type checking and ESLint passed. Suppression counts did not increase.

Walkthrough

The change preserves reasoning across MiniMax tool-loop requests and converts Bedrock reasoning blocks into Converse API reasoningContent. Tests cover signature capture, block filtering, and both conversion paths.

Changes

Reasoning preservation

Layer / File(s) Summary
MiniMax reasoning handling
src/api/providers/minimax.ts, src/api/providers/__tests__/minimax.spec.ts
MiniMax filters unsupported message blocks, resets and captures streamed thought signatures, exposes getThoughtSignature(), and tests reasoning output and signed block preservation.
Bedrock reasoning conversion
src/api/transform/bedrock-converse-format.ts, src/api/transform/__tests__/bedrock-converse-format.spec.ts
Bedrock message content supports reasoning and thinking blocks. The converter maps them to reasoningContent.reasoningText, including signatures when present. Tests cover both mappings.

Reasoning continuity works on the covered paths, but missing regression tests leave stale signature replay and unsigned Bedrock thinking serialization vulnerable to future regressions. Add the focused tests before merging when practical.

Full details: Regression Evidence

Explanation

The PR adds focused positive tests for MiniMax signature capture, MiniMax block filtering, and Bedrock reasoning conversion. However, changed state-reset behavior at src/api/providers/minimax.ts:89 has no regression test: no test performs a second createMessage call after a signed stream and verifies that a stream without signature_delta returns undefined from getThoughtSignature(). A stale signature can affect later persisted thinking blocks. The Bedrock conversion at src/api/transform/bedrock-converse-format.ts:71-79 also has an explicit unset-signature path, but the new tests cover only a signed thinking block. No existing focused test covers conversion without signature, although the field is optional and the implementation intentionally omits it.

Resolution

Add focused unit coverage. In minimax.spec.ts, collect two sequential streams on the same handler: capture a signature in the first stream, then provide a second stream without signature_delta and assert handler.getThoughtSignature() is undefined. In bedrock-converse-format.spec.ts, add a thinking block without signature and assert the output contains reasoningContent.reasoningText.text without a signature property.

Add sequential coverage for signature reset.

MiniMaxHandler stores the signature on the handler instance, and prepareApiConversationMessage reads it for later history. The current test uses one stream, while each test creates a fresh handler. Add a test that completes a signed request, completes a second request without a signature_delta, and asserts handler.getThoughtSignature() is undefined. Without this coverage, removing the reset can leave the previous signature available for the next request.

Add strict coverage for unsigned thinking blocks.

convertToBedrockConverseMessages accepts a thinking block without signature and omits that property from reasoningText. The current test covers only the signed path. Add an unsigned fixture and use toStrictEqual or not.toHaveProperty("signature") so the test detects an unconditional signature: undefined. The signed test only detects removal of a provided signature.
