Summary

Unique tip on #666 (2f420a9). Official SDKs send structured output on the Responses text.format plane. #666 accepted only {format: {type: text}}, which opened a dual-plane hole: that default plus response_format both reached the provider.

This tip makes the official plane real:

Buyer next action

Point SDKs at /v1/responses. Send one official text.format object (text / json_object / flat json_schema). If you see invalid_text, you sent text.verbosity, an unknown key, or both text and response_format — drop the extra plane and retry. Do not send chat-nested response_format.json_schema on this surface.

…closed otherwise

Chat history: message-level audio and legacy function_call are null/empty omit
no-ops; non-empty fail closed with named errors (including tools passthrough).
Tip substrate from #577 assistant refusal/annotations honesty. Local full unit:
940 passed.
…ed otherwise

OpenAI fine-tune style message weight is not applied on this gateway.
Accept null/0/1 as honest no-ops; reject other types and values with
invalid_message_weight. Tip substrate from #578. Local full unit: 943 passed.
…ion role

Reject unsupported message keys with named unknown_message_fields (not silent
strip or tools-passthrough smuggle). Reject legacy function role with
invalid_message_role migration to tool. Tip substrate from #579. Local full
unit: 947 passed.
OpenAI partial-assistant prefix flag is not applied on this gateway.
null/false are honest no-ops; true and non-booleans fail closed with
invalid_message_prefix. Tip substrate from #580. Local full unit: 950 passed.
…therwise

Named invalid_max_tool_calls on /v1/chat/completions instead of opaque
unknown_fields. Aligns with Responses max_tool_calls honesty; gateway has
no multi-step tool loop.
…losed otherwise

Legacy /v1/completions treated max_tool_calls as unknown_fields. Accept the
key for named invalid_max_tool_calls (null/empty/whitespace omit-equivalent),
matching chat/Responses honesty so SDKs get a clear migration path.
SDK clients often send include_usage/include_obfuscation as JSON null.
Drop null flag values before validation so null (and null+false mixes)
match omit / all-false no-ops on chat, Completions, and Responses.
True flags remain fail-closed with invalid_stream_options.
…or Responses parallel true

SDK optional defaults often send function.strict and json_schema.strict as
null — treat as omit rather than type errors. Align Responses
parallel_tool_calls=true with chat by requiring a non-empty tools array.
SDK optional defaults often send description and parameters as JSON null.
Treat null as omit rather than type errors; non-null non-string/object
values remain fail-closed with invalid_tools.
OpenAI-style tool descriptions are at most 1024 characters. Over-long
descriptions fail closed with named invalid_tools so SDKs never believe a
truncated description was accepted.
SDK optional participant name blanks ("" / whitespace) are omit-equivalent
like JSON null. Non-string, over-long, and invalid charset names remain
fail-closed with invalid_message_name.
…ll as omit

SDK optional defaults often send top_logprobs as "" and tool_calls
function.arguments as JSON null. Empty/whitespace top_logprobs matches
null/0 omit on chat and Completions; null arguments normalizes to empty
JSON-text string. Non-zero top_logprobs and non-string arguments stay
fail-closed.
SDK optional defaults often send instructions as empty or blank. Match
JSON null omit-equivalent behavior so blank instructions do not fail
closed as invalid_instructions; non-string and oversized remain rejected.
SDK null/empty/whitespace instructions are now omit-real: the key is
removed so /v1/responses does not forward a blank system prompt.
HTTP tests lock the mock echo, and the OpenAPI/docs contract tells
callers to send a non-empty string when they want instructions.

OpenAI SDKs send text: {format: {type: "text"}} as the default output
control. Rejecting that official default as invalid_text contradicted
response_format type=text on the same surface. Forward the default;
keep fail-closed for other non-empty text objects.

Co-authored-by: Seongho Bae <seonghobae@users.noreply.github.com>
The type=text default opened a dual-plane hole: official text plus
response_format both reached the provider. Accept json_object and flat
json_schema on text.format, pop null/blank optionals, and fail-closed
on verbosity and dual-plane so buyers get one honest output control.
