Description

Enable tool_choice="required" for native Nemotron serving (nemotron_h and nemotron_h_omni, including Super 3.5 VL) with qwen3_coder and XGrammar. Build the mandatory XML grammar through the tool-parser hook and select model eligibility through ServingExtension. Accept the model template's whitespace and zero-argument layouts. Addresses NVBug 6932723.

The shared nemotron-v3, nano-v3, and k-exaone reasoning parser now resolves thinking mode from the rendered prompt for all Chat Completions requests, including requests without required tool choice. Disaggregated context workers relay that mode to generation workers. Required-tool grammar support remains limited to native serving. Missing or incompatible reasoning-parser configuration returns an HTTP 400 with --reasoning_parser nemotron-v3 guidance.

Unconstrained tool output recovers omitted </parameter> markers at a complete boundary before the next call, or at generation completion when the enclosing function and call have closed. For example, a malformed f(x="abc") followed by g(y="1") yields both calls in whole and streamed responses. When a string contains the entire apparent closing/opening call sequence, unconstrained recovery prioritizes separate calls; required-grammar parsing preserves that sequence as argument text. Responses previews wait for generation completion before applying final-call recovery.

Shared streaming also preserves partial markers and individual literal delimiters, compares reasoning/tool marker positions, flushes pending Responses text, and recovers from empty function names. Explicit free-form parameter schemas return a clear HTTP 400. Named-function and disaggregated required-tool support remain separate.

Test Coverage

TestOpenAIChatIntegration.test_required_attaches_mandatory_grammar (tests/unittest/llmapi/apps/test_serving_extensions.py:487) verifies admission and mandatory grammar attachment; Nemotron required requests fail with HTTP 400 without the feature. Generation is stubbed; grammar validation uses real XGrammar. The affected test files are already included in CPU CI.

Question Test
Does a missing parameter closer preserve the next call and recover at EOF? test_missing_parameter_closer_recovers_calls (tests/unittest/llmapi/apps/test_tool_parsers.py:1686)
Does required grammar preserve an argument containing a complete call boundary? test_chat_recovery_policy_preserves_required_arguments (tests/unittest/llmapi/apps/test_tool_parsers.py:1715)
Can a partial Responses preview close a literal argument too early? test_qwen_coder_partial_preview_preserves_literal_outer_closers (tests/unittest/llmapi/apps/test_responses_streaming_tool_calls.py:315)
Does missing reasoning-parser configuration produce actionable guidance? test_required_reports_missing_reasoning_capability (tests/unittest/llmapi/apps/test_serving_extensions.py:601)
Can a registered model enable required grammar through its extension? test_required_grammar_admission_uses_extension_hook (tests/unittest/llmapi/apps/test_serving_extensions.py:467)
Do ordinary chat requests use the rendered thinking mode for all three aliases? test_non_required_chat_resolves_mode_from_prompt (tests/unittest/llmapi/apps/test_serving_extensions.py:641)

Validation on 7b583a0812: 1,405 passed, 1 skipped across the serving, tool-parser, reasoning, Kimi-extension, and Responses suites. Ran on an OCI CPU node with real XGrammar and the current Python source overlay on TensorRT-LLM wheel 1.4.0rc0.dev202610090112. Full PR-diff pre-commit passed. The recovery assertion fails on the prior PR HEAD; removing partial-preview handling reproduces premature text completion.

Earlier live validation at feature commit d8b3443c98 used 4× GB200, TP4, BF16 weights, FP8 KV, stream_interval=10, and zero/four postprocessing workers: 71 cases per mode plus a Responses suffix check. One four-worker thinking case exhausted 768 tokens and passed with a 4,096-token budget. Control-tag argument tests used schema patterns to force exact values. Those GPU runs predate the recovery-policy and extension-hook updates above.

Walkthrough

This change adds model-specific required-tool handling, structural grammar generation, Qwen3 Coder parsing improvements, Nemotron reasoning-mode resolution, and buffered parser flushing when streaming generation finishes.

Changes

Required Tool Calls and Reasoning

Layer / File(s) Summary
Nemotron reasoning resolution
tensorrt_llm/llmapi/reasoning_parser.py, tests/unittest/llmapi/test_reasoning_parser.py, tests/unittest/llmapi/apps/test_reasoning_prompt_resolution.py
Nemotron parsers resolve thinking mode from prompt markers. A tool-call opener before </think> ends reasoning. Tests cover aliases and streaming and non-streaming boundaries.
Required format and Qwen3 Coder parsing
tensorrt_llm/serve/tool_parser/*, tests/unittest/llmapi/apps/data/nemotron_super_vl_chat_template.jinja, tests/unittest/llmapi/apps/test_tool_parsers.py
The parser interface supports structural tags. Qwen3 Coder builds required-tool formats and parses complete and streamed calls. The Nemotron template renders reasoning, tools, multimodal content, and tool responses.
Required-tool request handling
tensorrt_llm/serve/serving_extensions.py, tensorrt_llm/serve/openai_server.py, tests/unittest/llmapi/apps/test_serving_extensions.py
Serving extensions select template- or grammar-based handling by model type. The chat endpoint validates grammar requests, resolves thinking state, and builds parser-specific structural formats.
Streaming parser completion
tensorrt_llm/serve/responses_utils.py, tests/unittest/llmapi/apps/test_responses_streaming_tool_calls.py
The response stream invokes the parser when generation finishes, including when the final chunk has no text delta. Tests cover partial tool-call suffixes and final text-event ordering.

Required tool choice for Nemotron Super VL looks sound. In auto mode, if a qwen3_coder model omits a closing </parameter>, non-streaming responses now return that call and any later calls as plain text instead of tool calls; before this change the call was still parsed. Some rejection tests also check only the HTTP status. Both are narrow follow-ups rather than serious merge blockers.

254-257: 📐 Maintainability & Code Quality | 🔵 Trivial | ⚡ Quick win

Cover the held partial tool-call prefix.

<tool_c is held while the parser is outside a tool call. It does not exercise the finish branch for an unterminated call. The existing truncation test does not assert the streaming normal text.

Add a test for the held-prefix branch:

Suggested test
+    def test_finish_flushes_held_partial_tool_call_prefix(
+            self, sample_tools, parser):
+        result = parser.parse_streaming_increment("A <tool_c", sample_tools)
+        assert result.normal_text == "A "
+
+        result = parser.finish(sample_tools)
+
+        assert result.normal_text == "<tool_c"
+        assert result.calls == []

The difference between an unterminated tool call and _extract's normal-text result is not established as a correctness defect by the available contract. Do not use the partial-prefix test as coverage for that separate behavior.

Requesting changes: the required grammar rejects the Nemotron template's own layout (a newline before the first call, newlines between parameters), plus a few streaming regressions and a pre-existing infinite loop. Details inline.

🟡 Minor · Do not let an unclosed <parameter= block hide a finished tool… · qwen3_coder_parser.py:405-411

tensorrt_llm/serve/tool_parser/qwen3_coder_parser.py:405-411
🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win

Do not let an unclosed <parameter= block hide a finished tool call in complete text.

_find_closing_tag returns -1 when a <parameter= block has no </parameter>. In streaming, -1 correctly means "wait for more text". _extract (Line 424) and _parse_block (Line 439) work on the complete output, so there is no more text to wait for.

  • Trigger: in auto mode, a model emits <tool_call>\n<function=get_weather>\n<parameter=location>SF\n</function>\n</tool_call> and leaves out </parameter>.
  • Before this change: _extract used text.find("</tool_call>") and still parsed the call. The note in the existing tests says the parser deliberately accepts a missing </parameter>.
  • Now: _extract gets -1. It adds text[s:] to normal_text and stops the loop. The raw XML goes back as assistant content, and every later <tool_call> in the same output becomes content too.

The required grammar cannot produce this output. Every qwen3_coder deployment in auto mode can.

Fix: add a flag for complete text so that the first end token is used when the parameter never closes. Add a regression test with a missing </parameter> followed by a second valid call.

🐛 Proposed fix
     `@staticmethod`
-    def _find_closing_tag(text: str, end_token: str, start: int = 0) -> int:

Update _find_closing_tag to accept a complete-text flag that returns the first
end token when a parameter lacks its closing tag, while preserving -1 for
streaming calls. Pass complete=True from _extract and _parse_block, and add a
regression test covering an unclosed parameter followed by a second valid tool
call.

Add a regression case for an unterminated parameter in a named tool call.

TestQwen3CoderRequiredTools covers grammar acceptance, schema rejection, delimiter preservation, malformed names, streaming, and truncation. Both changed test files are already listed in tests/integration/test_lists/test-db/l0_cpu.yml.

The remaining gap is a named call such as <function=get_weather> with a parameter that has no </parameter>. The current malformed cases use an incorrect <too_call> tag or an empty function name, and the truncation case removes </tool_call>. Add the missing-</parameter> case and assert the intended parser result.

Coverage is broad but needs this regression case.

Add a regression test to TestQwen3CoderRequiredTools for a named get_weather
tool call containing a parameter without a closing </parameter> delimiter, using
the existing _call and compiler helpers where appropriate. Assert the parser’s
intended result for this malformed input, distinct from the existing
malformed-name, wrong-tag, and truncated-tool-call cases.

#20528 makes the same qwen3_coder streaming fixes: partial <tool_call> holdback, per-call body, and {} for empty args. Please coordinate so only one PR lands them.

Enable required tool choice for native Nemotron serving, including Super
3.5 VL, with XGrammar and model-specific serving extensions. Resolve
thinking state from the rendered prompt and relay it between context and
generation workers.

Preserve tool arguments across streaming boundaries and recover omitted
parameter closers in unconstrained Chat Completions and Responses output.
Keep required-grammar argument boundaries and partial previews intact.

Cover grammar constraints, extension policies, request validation,
reasoning-mode resolution, and incremental tool parsing.
