Fixes #4456

Deep Agents now identifies requests made through the NVIDIA provider with NVIDIA NIM's app-origin billing header.

Adds a built-in NVIDIA provider profile that sends X-BILLING-INVOKE-ORIGIN: DeepAgents through ChatNVIDIA.default_headers, while preserving explicit caller overrides.

##
[0.7.0](deepagents==0.6.12...deepagents==0.7.0)
(2026-07-29)

See [the
docs](https://docs.langchain.com/oss/python/releases/changelog#deepagents-v0-7-0)
for curated release notes.

### ⚠ BREAKING CHANGES

* `create_deep_agent` no longer includes `TodoListMiddleware` by
default, the `write_todos` tool, `todos` state channel, and
todo-planning prompt are now absent. Pass
`middleware=[TodoListMiddleware()]` to restore them on the main agent;
add it to each `SubAgent`'s middleware to restore them there.
([#4929](#4929))
([9340518](9340518))
* Default agent prompts are now lean: the authored base prompt is empty,
and tool-usage prose that duplicates tool schemas is trimmed.
`BASE_AGENT_PROMPT` is deprecated (removal in `deepagents==0.9.0`) but
remains importable and still returns the previous authored prompt
verbatim; pass it as
`create_deep_agent(system_prompt=BASE_AGENT_PROMPT)` to restore the old
behavior.
([#4859](#4859))
([#4979](#4979))
([a8d1b32](a8d1b32))
([d9f54fc](d9f54fc))
* The built-in tool-usage prompt constants `TASK_SYSTEM_PROMPT`,
`ASYNC_TASK_SYSTEM_PROMPT`, `SUMMARIZATION_SYSTEM_PROMPT`,
`FILESYSTEM_SYSTEM_PROMPT`, and `EXECUTION_SYSTEM_PROMPT` are removed,
and the `system_prompt` default on `SubAgentMiddleware`,
`AsyncSubAgentMiddleware`, `SummarizationToolMiddleware`, and
`create_summarization_tool_middleware` is now `None`, which injects no
prose. Pass your own string to restore prompt text.
([#4859](#4859))
([a8d1b32](a8d1b32))
* `FilesystemBackend` and `LocalShellBackend` now default to
`virtual_mode=True`. Filesystem paths are anchored under `root_dir`,
`..` traversal is rejected, and paths resolving outside `root_dir` raise
`ValueError`. Previously an unspecified `virtual_mode` emitted a
deprecation warning and fell back to `False`, where absolute host paths
were used as-is and `..` could escape `root_dir`. Pass
`virtual_mode=False` explicitly to restore the old filesystem behavior.
([#4541](#4541))
([540a0fa](540a0fa))
* Agents now see a destructive, recursive `delete` filesystem tool
whenever the backend supports it, and filesystem permissions classify
`delete` as a write operation — so an existing rule allowing writes to a
path also authorizes recursively deleting that subtree unless a narrower
deny or interrupt rule covers the target. Because recursive deletes
affect descendants, deny and interrupt checks use bulk path overlap
instead of exact-path matching. To keep the previous behavior, add a
deny or interrupt rule, or omit `delete` from
`FilesystemMiddleware(tools=...)`. Missing paths return a not-found
error, `CompositeBackend` reports an unsupported-operation error when a
routed sub-backend cannot delete, and the tool is hidden from the model
entirely when the backend itself does not implement it.
([#3659](#3659))
([#3691](#3691))
([#3765](#3765))
([#3851](#3851))
([f2a21ec](f2a21ec))
* `write_file` can now create a file if it is missing and replaces it
entirely if it already exists, instead of returning a file-exists error.
The `write_file` tool description no longer requires reading the file
first. There is no "create-only" compatibility mode. Workflows, prompts,
tests, or guardrails that relied on the file-exists error to force
`edit_file` usage or to protect existing content must omit `write_file`,
add explicit permission or interrupt rules, or use `edit_file` where
preserving existing content matters.
([#4109](#4109))
([2506fcc](2506fcc))
* Removed deprecated backend compatibility shims. Callers must pass
concrete `BackendProtocol` instances (not factories), configure
`StoreBackend` with an explicit `namespace`, and use the current `ls` /
`glob` / `grep` / `ReadResult` APIs.
([#4541](#4541))
([540a0fa](540a0fa))
* The deprecated `files_update` attribute and constructor keyword are
removed from `WriteResult` and `EditResult`. Custom backends must stop
passing `files_update=`, and callers must stop reading
`result.files_update`; state writes are emitted directly by
`StateBackend`.
([#4541](#4541))
([540a0fa](540a0fa))
* Removed the deprecated `BackendProtocol` methods `ls_info`,
`als_info`, `glob_info`, `aglob_info`, `grep_raw`, and `agrep_raw`. Use
`ls` / `glob` / `grep` and their async counterparts.
([#4541](#4541))
([540a0fa](540a0fa))
* `SummarizationMiddleware(history_path_prefix=...)` was removed and now
raises `TypeError`. Configure `CompositeBackend(artifacts_root=...)`
instead.
([#4541](#4541))
([540a0fa](540a0fa))
* Agent-facing `ls` and `glob` tool output now renders empty results as
`No files found` instead of `[]`; direct backend APIs continue to return
structured empty `LsResult` and `GlobResult` values. Callers that parse
tool output should update those checks.
([#3709](#3709))
([efafd1e](efafd1e))
* `read_file` no longer renders raw text with a fixed-width `cat
-n`-style line-number gutter and tab separator. Line and continuation
markers are dynamically aligned and separated from source content by two
spaces, and the `LINE_NUMBER_WIDTH` constant is removed from
`deepagents.backends.utils` and `deepagents.middleware.filesystem`.
Callers that parse raw tool output should update those parsers.
([#4561](#4561))
([cf057b4](cf057b4))

### Features

* Custom middleware passed to `create_deep_agent(..., middleware=[...])`
can replace a default middleware instance when `.name` matches, so
defaults such as `SummarizationMiddleware` can be overridden without
also excluding the built-in instance.
([#4251](#4251))
([90c8472](90c8472))
* `FilesystemMiddleware(tools=[...])` accepts a keyword-only allowlist
of built-in filesystem tools, typed by the newly exported `FsToolName`
literal (`"ls"`, `"read_file"`, `"write_file"`, `"edit_file"`,
`"delete"`, `"glob"`, `"grep"`, `"execute"`); pass `"all"` or omit the
argument to keep every tool. A list must include `"read_file"` or the
constructor raises `ValueError`. Omitted built-in tools are
non-executable, and custom user tools are unaffected.
([#4325](#4325))
([#4698](#4698))
([704a70d](704a70d))
([9709525](9709525))
* Shorten LLM-facing descriptions for the `task` tool and filesystem
tools (`read_file`, `grep`, `edit_file`, `glob`, `execute`).
([#5009](#5009))
([761f5f0](761f5f0))
* `GrepResult` and `GlobResult` now carry a `truncated` flag so
supporting backends can return valid partial results when a match cap or
backend deadline is reached; agent-facing tool output adds a note
telling the model to narrow the search. `FilesystemBackend` returns
partial `grep` and `glob` results on its backend timeout rather than
erroring, while other backend or middleware timeouts may still return
errors. Its `glob` also gains brace expansion such as `*.{py,md}`
(already supported by the state and store backends).
([#4063](#4063))
([ef591e7](ef591e7))
* The agent-facing `grep` match cap is configurable:
`FilesystemMiddleware(grep_max_count=...)` sets the default (`1000`;
`None` disables it) and the model can override it per call through the
tool's new `max_count` argument. `grep` / `agrep` on `BackendProtocol`
and all built-in backends accept a keyword-only `max_count`. Local
ripgrep output is streamed and terminated once the cap is reached.
Direct `FilesystemBackend.grep()` callers can request surrounding lines
with keyword-only `context_lines`.
([#4570](#4570))
([#4706](#4706))
([8e86f5e](8e86f5e))
([65230df](65230df))
* Paginated built-in `read_file` responses report the returned
source-line range and next `offset`; total and remaining line counts are
included when the backend knows the file length. Resume offsets remain
safe when sandbox or middleware limits shorten the visible page.
([#4540](#4540))
([8321194](8321194))
* Optional video frame extraction for `read_file`, enabled by the new
`deepagents[video]` extra. Video files are sampled into JPEG frames,
with `offset` and `limit` interpreted as seconds. Without the extra,
existing generic video/file content-block behavior remains.
([#4094](#4094))
([b927147](b927147))
* `FilesystemMiddleware` can capture oversized `execute` tool output
directly inside the sandbox artifact path on compatible, opted-in
`BaseSandbox` implementations to reduce round trips; `LangSmithSandbox`
opts in by default.
([#4230](#4230))
([02f5bd7](02f5bd7))
* Automatically enable Fireworks prompt-cache session affinity when a
compatible `langchain-fireworks` installation is available.
([#4598](#4598))
([5d878bf](5d878bf))
* Add a built-in NVIDIA Nemotron 3 Ultra harness profile and NVIDIA NIM
app-origin attribution.
([#4192](#4192))
([#4455](#4455))
([d5a60ec](d5a60ec))
([4cb4749](4cb4749))
* `RubricMiddleware` now accepts any positive `max_iterations` cap
instead of enforcing a hard upper bound.
([#4405](#4405))
([d6692a7](d6692a7))

### Bug Fixes

* Keep fields marked with `PrivateStateAttr`, including fields declared
through `create_deep_agent(state_schema=...)`, out of subagent inputs
and returned parent-state updates.
([#4587](#4587))
([a4662c0](a4662c0))
* Preserve `ContextT` through the `create_deep_agent(...,
middleware=[...])` type annotation so type checkers accept context-aware
middleware when a matching `context_schema` is passed.
([#4055](#4055))
([7be76c7](7be76c7))
* Accept YAML list values as well as comma-separated strings for skill
`allowed-tools` frontmatter, and make skill truncation warnings
actionable with field name, path, length, configured limit, and impact.
([#4140](#4140))
([#4141](#4141))
([d62534c](d62534c))
([2f5f5b8](2f5f5b8))
* Align filesystem instructions with the tools that remain after
allowlist and backend-capability filtering, so agents no longer
reference hidden `grep`/`glob` tools or prohibit equivalent shell search
when dedicated search tools are unavailable.
([#4920](#4920))
([#4921](#4921))
([d3650c7](d3650c7))
([b65cc00](b65cc00))
* Propagate default-backend failures from `CompositeBackend.ls("/")` and
`CompositeBackend.als("/")` instead of returning successful route-only
listings.
([#4925](#4925))
([4c3b166](4c3b166))
* Correct `CompositeBackend.glob` / `CompositeBackend.aglob` routing so
explicit default-backend paths such as `/tools` do not also return files
from routed backends such as `/memories`.
([#4531](#4531))
([cbdb0a7](cbdb0a7))
* Propagate default- and routed-backend failures from root
`CompositeBackend.glob(..., path=None)` / `aglob(..., path=None)` and
`path="/"` searches instead of returning incomplete successful results.
([#4063](#4063))
([ef591e7](ef591e7))
* Constrain sandbox `glob` and slash-pattern `grep` searches to their
declared search root by treating leading `/` as search-root-relative,
rejecting `..` traversal segments, and filtering symlink-resolved
matches outside the root.
([#4588](#4588))
([c6c7213](c6c7213))
* Unify `grep(..., glob=...)` include-glob semantics across filesystem
and in-memory backends: basename patterns like `*.py` match at any
depth, and slash-containing patterns like `src/**/*.py` match relative
paths consistently.
([#3936](#3936))
([feab6e0](feab6e0))
* Improve agent-facing `grep` descriptions and no-match hints to steer
regex-looking patterns toward literal searches, route slash-containing
sandbox include-globs correctly, and shorten default search timeouts so
bad patterns and huge trees return guidance faster.
([#4168](#4168))
([b1dbf5e](b1dbf5e))
* Align sandbox delete behavior with other backends by returning
not-found errors for missing paths, and avoid over-blocking unrelated
sibling deletes when deny rules use glob patterns.
([#4321](#4321))
([d77496b](d77496b))
* Improve rubric grader failure diagnostics with configured model,
structured-output strategy, and integer HTTP status when available.
([#4938](#4938))
([#4967](#4967))
([f51d3a0](f51d3a0))
([bca70aa](bca70aa))
* Emit `max_iterations_reached` as the terminal `RubricMiddleware`
status when the iteration cap is exhausted, instead of a final
`needs_revision` event that will not loop.
([#4406](#4406))
([a51c8d2](a51c8d2))
* Handle missing async subagent URLs consistently in `check_async_task`
and `cancel_async_task`.
([#3967](#3967))
([b0d92c0](b0d92c0))

### Performance Improvements

* Run LangSmith sandbox commands over the async client.

([a8d1b32](langchain-ai@a8d1b32))

* The built-in tool-usage prompt constants `TASK_SYSTEM_PROMPT`,
`ASYNC_TASK_SYSTEM_PROMPT`, `SUMMARIZATION_SYSTEM_PROMPT`,
`FILESYSTEM_SYSTEM_PROMPT`, and `EXECUTION_SYSTEM_PROMPT` are removed,
and the `system_prompt` default on `SubAgentMiddleware`,

tool output should update those checks.

(already supported by the state and store backends).
([langchain-ai#4063](langchain-ai#4063))
([ef591e7](langchain-ai@ef591e7))
* The agent-facing `grep` match cap is configurable:
`FilesystemMiddleware(grep_max_count=...)` sets the default (`1000`;
`None` disables it) and the model can override it per call through the
tool's new `max_count` argument. `grep` / `agrep` on `BackendProtocol`
and all built-in backends accept a keyword-only `max_count`. Local
ripgrep output is streamed and terminated once the cap is reached.
Direct `FilesystemBackend.grep()` callers can request surrounding lines
with keyword-only `context_lines`.
([langchain-ai#4570](langchain-ai#4570))
([langchain-ai#4706](langchain-ai#4706))
([8e86f5e](langchain-ai@8e86f5e))
([65230df](langchain-ai@65230df))
* Paginated built-in `read_file` responses report the returned
source-line range and next `offset`; total and remaining line counts are
included when the backend knows the file length. Resume offsets remain
safe when sandbox or middleware limits shorten the visible page.
([langchain-ai#4540](langchain-ai#4540))
([8321194](langchain-ai@8321194))
* Optional video frame extraction for `read_file`, enabled by the new
`deepagents[video]` extra. Video files are sampled into JPEG frames,
with `offset` and `limit` interpreted as seconds. Without the extra,
existing generic video/file content-block behavior remains.
([langchain-ai#4094](langchain-ai#4094))
([b927147](langchain-ai@b927147))
* `FilesystemMiddleware` can capture oversized `execute` tool output
directly inside the sandbox artifact path on compatible, opted-in
`BaseSandbox` implementations to reduce round trips; `LangSmithSandbox`
opts in by default.
([langchain-ai#4230](langchain-ai#4230))
([02f5bd7](langchain-ai@02f5bd7))
* Automatically enable Fireworks prompt-cache session affinity when a
compatible `langchain-fireworks` installation is available.
([langchain-ai#4598](langchain-ai#4598))
([5d878bf](langchain-ai@5d878bf))
* Add a built-in NVIDIA Nemotron 3 Ultra harness profile and NVIDIA NIM
app-origin attribution.
([langchain-ai#4192](langchain-ai#4192))
([langchain-ai#4455](langchain-ai#4455))
([d5a60ec](langchain-ai@d5a60ec))
([4cb4749](langchain-ai@4cb4749))
* `RubricMiddleware` now accepts any positive `max_iterations` cap
instead of enforcing a hard upper bound.
([langchain-ai#4405](langchain-ai#4405))
([d6692a7](langchain-ai@d6692a7))

### Bug Fixes

* Keep fields marked with `PrivateStateAttr`, including fields declared
through `create_deep_agent(state_schema=...)`, out of subagent inputs
and returned parent-state updates.
([langchain-ai#4587](langchain-ai#4587))
([a4662c0](langchain-ai@a4662c0))
* Preserve `ContextT` through the `create_deep_agent(...,
middleware=[...])` type annotation so type checkers accept context-aware
middleware when a matching `context_schema` is passed.
([langchain-ai#4055](langchain-ai#4055))
([7be76c7](langchain-ai@7be76c7))
* Accept YAML list values as well as comma-separated strings for skill
`allowed-tools` frontmatter, and make skill truncation warnings
actionable with field name, path, length, configured limit, and impact.
([langchain-ai#4140](langchain-ai#4140))
([langchain-ai#4141](langchain-ai#4141))
([d62534c](langchain-ai@d62534c))
([2f5f5b8](langchain-ai@2f5f5b8))
* Align filesystem instructions with the tools that remain after
allowlist and backend-capability filtering, so agents no longer
reference hidden `grep`/`glob` tools or prohibit equivalent shell search
when dedicated search tools are unavailable.
([langchain-ai#4920](langchain-ai#4920))
([langchain-ai#4921](langchain-ai#4921))
([d3650c7](langchain-ai@d3650c7))
([b65cc00](langchain-ai@b65cc00))
* Propagate default-backend failures from `CompositeBackend.ls("/")` and
`CompositeBackend.als("/")` instead of returning successful route-only
listings.
([langchain-ai#4925](langchain-ai#4925))
([4c3b166](langchain-ai@4c3b166))
* Correct `CompositeBackend.glob` / `CompositeBackend.aglob` routing so
explicit default-backend paths such as `/tools` do not also return files
from routed backends such as `/memories`.
([langchain-ai#4531](langchain-ai#4531))
([cbdb0a7](langchain-ai@cbdb0a7))
* Propagate default- and routed-backend failures from root
`CompositeBackend.glob(..., path=None)` / `aglob(..., path=None)` and
`path="/"` searches instead of returning incomplete successful results.
([langchain-ai#4063](langchain-ai#4063))
([ef591e7](langchain-ai@ef591e7))
* Constrain sandbox `glob` and slash-pattern `grep` searches to their
declared search root by treating leading `/` as search-root-relative,
rejecting `..` traversal segments, and filtering symlink-resolved
matches outside the root.
([langchain-ai#4588](langchain-ai#4588))
([c6c7213](langchain-ai@c6c7213))
* Unify `grep(..., glob=...)` include-glob semantics across filesystem
and in-memory backends: basename patterns like `*.py` match at any
depth, and slash-containing patterns like `src/**/*.py` match relative
paths consistently.
([langchain-ai#3936](langchain-ai#3936))
([feab6e0](langchain-ai@feab6e0))
* Improve agent-facing `grep` descriptions and no-match hints to steer
regex-looking patterns toward literal searches, route slash-containing
sandbox include-globs correctly, and shorten default search timeouts so
bad patterns and huge trees return guidance faster.
([langchain-ai#4168](langchain-ai#4168))
([b1dbf5e](langchain-ai@b1dbf5e))
* Align sandbox delete behavior with other backends by returning
not-found errors for missing paths, and avoid over-blocking unrelated
sibling deletes when deny rules use glob patterns.
([langchain-ai#4321](langchain-ai#4321))
([d77496b](langchain-ai@d77496b))
* Improve rubric grader failure diagnostics with configured model,
structured-output strategy, and integer HTTP status when available.
([langchain-ai#4938](langchain-ai#4938))
([langchain-ai#4967](langchain-ai#4967))
([f51d3a0](langchain-ai@f51d3a0))
([bca70aa](langchain-ai@bca70aa))
* Emit `max_iterations_reached` as the terminal `RubricMiddleware`
status when the iteration cap is exhausted, instead of a final
`needs_revision` event that will not loop.
([langchain-ai#4406](langchain-ai#4406))
([a51c8d2](langchain-ai@a51c8d2))
* Handle missing async subagent URLs consistently in `check_async_task`
and `cancel_async_task`.
([langchain-ai#3967](langchain-ai#3967))
([b0d92c0](langchain-ai@b0d92c0))

### Performance Improvements

* Run LangSmith sandbox commands over the async client.

##
[0.7.0](deepagents==0.6.12...deepagents==0.7.0)
(2026-07-29)

See [the
docs](https://docs.langchain.com/oss/python/releases/changelog#deepagents-v0-7-0)
for curated release notes.

### ⚠ BREAKING CHANGES

* `create_deep_agent` no longer includes `TodoListMiddleware` by
default, the `write_todos` tool, `todos` state channel, and
todo-planning prompt are now absent. Pass
`middleware=[TodoListMiddleware()]` to restore them on the main agent;
add it to each `SubAgent`'s middleware to restore them there.
([#4929](#4929))
([9340518](9340518))
* Default agent prompts are now lean: the authored base prompt is empty,
and tool-usage prose that duplicates tool schemas is trimmed.
`BASE_AGENT_PROMPT` is deprecated (removal in `deepagents==0.9.0`) but
remains importable and still returns the previous authored prompt
verbatim; pass it as
`create_deep_agent(system_prompt=BASE_AGENT_PROMPT)` to restore the old
behavior.
([#4859](#4859))
([#4979](#4979))
([a8d1b32](a8d1b32))
([d9f54fc](d9f54fc))
* The built-in tool-usage prompt constants `TASK_SYSTEM_PROMPT`,
`ASYNC_TASK_SYSTEM_PROMPT`, `SUMMARIZATION_SYSTEM_PROMPT`,
`FILESYSTEM_SYSTEM_PROMPT`, and `EXECUTION_SYSTEM_PROMPT` are removed,
and the `system_prompt` default on `SubAgentMiddleware`,
`AsyncSubAgentMiddleware`, `SummarizationToolMiddleware`, and
`create_summarization_tool_middleware` is now `None`, which injects no
prose. Pass your own string to restore prompt text.
([#4859](#4859))
([a8d1b32](a8d1b32))
* `FilesystemBackend` and `LocalShellBackend` now default to
`virtual_mode=True`. Filesystem paths are anchored under `root_dir`,
`..` traversal is rejected, and paths resolving outside `root_dir` raise
`ValueError`. Previously an unspecified `virtual_mode` emitted a
deprecation warning and fell back to `False`, where absolute host paths
were used as-is and `..` could escape `root_dir`. Pass
`virtual_mode=False` explicitly to restore the old filesystem behavior.
([#4541](#4541))
([540a0fa](540a0fa))
* Agents now see a destructive, recursive `delete` filesystem tool
whenever the backend supports it, and filesystem permissions classify
`delete` as a write operation — so an existing rule allowing writes to a
path also authorizes recursively deleting that subtree unless a narrower
deny or interrupt rule covers the target. Because recursive deletes
affect descendants, deny and interrupt checks use bulk path overlap
instead of exact-path matching. To keep the previous behavior, add a
deny or interrupt rule, or omit `delete` from
`FilesystemMiddleware(tools=...)`. Missing paths return a not-found
error, `CompositeBackend` reports an unsupported-operation error when a
routed sub-backend cannot delete, and the tool is hidden from the model
entirely when the backend itself does not implement it.
([#3659](#3659))
([#3691](#3691))
([#3765](#3765))
([#3851](#3851))
([f2a21ec](f2a21ec))
* `write_file` can now create a file if it is missing and replaces it
entirely if it already exists, instead of returning a file-exists error.
The `write_file` tool description no longer requires reading the file
first. There is no "create-only" compatibility mode. Workflows, prompts,
tests, or guardrails that relied on the file-exists error to force
`edit_file` usage or to protect existing content must omit `write_file`,
add explicit permission or interrupt rules, or use `edit_file` where
preserving existing content matters.
([#4109](#4109))
([2506fcc](2506fcc))
* Removed deprecated backend compatibility shims. Callers must pass
concrete `BackendProtocol` instances (not factories), configure
`StoreBackend` with an explicit `namespace`, and use the current `ls` /
`glob` / `grep` / `ReadResult` APIs.
([#4541](#4541))
([540a0fa](540a0fa))
* The deprecated `files_update` attribute and constructor keyword are
removed from `WriteResult` and `EditResult`. Custom backends must stop
passing `files_update=`, and callers must stop reading
`result.files_update`; state writes are emitted directly by
`StateBackend`.
([#4541](#4541))
([540a0fa](540a0fa))
* Removed the deprecated `BackendProtocol` methods `ls_info`,
`als_info`, `glob_info`, `aglob_info`, `grep_raw`, and `agrep_raw`. Use
`ls` / `glob` / `grep` and their async counterparts.
([#4541](#4541))
([540a0fa](540a0fa))
* `SummarizationMiddleware(history_path_prefix=...)` was removed and now
raises `TypeError`. Configure `CompositeBackend(artifacts_root=...)`
instead.
([#4541](#4541))
([540a0fa](540a0fa))
* Agent-facing `ls` and `glob` tool output now renders empty results as
`No files found` instead of `[]`; direct backend APIs continue to return
structured empty `LsResult` and `GlobResult` values. Callers that parse
tool output should update those checks.
([#3709](#3709))
([efafd1e](efafd1e))
* `read_file` no longer renders raw text with a fixed-width `cat
-n`-style line-number gutter and tab separator. Line and continuation
markers are dynamically aligned and separated from source content by two
spaces, and the `LINE_NUMBER_WIDTH` constant is removed from
`deepagents.backends.utils` and `deepagents.middleware.filesystem`.
Callers that parse raw tool output should update those parsers.
([#4561](#4561))
([cf057b4](cf057b4))

### Features

* Custom middleware passed to `create_deep_agent(..., middleware=[...])`
can replace a default middleware instance when `.name` matches, so
defaults such as `SummarizationMiddleware` can be overridden without
also excluding the built-in instance.
([#4251](#4251))
([90c8472](90c8472))
* `FilesystemMiddleware(tools=[...])` accepts a keyword-only allowlist
of built-in filesystem tools, typed by the newly exported `FsToolName`
literal (`"ls"`, `"read_file"`, `"write_file"`, `"edit_file"`,
`"delete"`, `"glob"`, `"grep"`, `"execute"`); pass `"all"` or omit the
argument to keep every tool. A list must include `"read_file"` or the
constructor raises `ValueError`. Omitted built-in tools are
non-executable, and custom user tools are unaffected.
([#4325](#4325))
([#4698](#4698))
([704a70d](704a70d))
([9709525](9709525))
* Shorten LLM-facing descriptions for the `task` tool and filesystem
tools (`read_file`, `grep`, `edit_file`, `glob`, `execute`).
([#5009](#5009))
([761f5f0](761f5f0))
* `GrepResult` and `GlobResult` now carry a `truncated` flag so
supporting backends can return valid partial results when a match cap or
backend deadline is reached; agent-facing tool output adds a note
telling the model to narrow the search. `FilesystemBackend` returns
partial `grep` and `glob` results on its backend timeout rather than
erroring, while other backend or middleware timeouts may still return
errors. Its `glob` also gains brace expansion such as `*.{py,md}`
(already supported by the state and store backends).
([#4063](#4063))
([ef591e7](ef591e7))
* The agent-facing `grep` match cap is configurable:
`FilesystemMiddleware(grep_max_count=...)` sets the default (`1000`;
`None` disables it) and the model can override it per call through the
tool's new `max_count` argument. `grep` / `agrep` on `BackendProtocol`
and all built-in backends accept a keyword-only `max_count`. Local
ripgrep output is streamed and terminated once the cap is reached.
Direct `FilesystemBackend.grep()` callers can request surrounding lines
with keyword-only `context_lines`.
([#4570](#4570))
([#4706](#4706))
([8e86f5e](8e86f5e))
([65230df](65230df))
* Paginated built-in `read_file` responses report the returned
source-line range and next `offset`; total and remaining line counts are
included when the backend knows the file length. Resume offsets remain
safe when sandbox or middleware limits shorten the visible page.
([#4540](#4540))
([8321194](8321194))
* Optional video frame extraction for `read_file`, enabled by the new
`deepagents[video]` extra. Video files are sampled into JPEG frames,
with `offset` and `limit` interpreted as seconds. Without the extra,
existing generic video/file content-block behavior remains.
([#4094](#4094))
([b927147](b927147))
* `FilesystemMiddleware` can capture oversized `execute` tool output
directly inside the sandbox artifact path on compatible, opted-in
`BaseSandbox` implementations to reduce round trips; `LangSmithSandbox`
opts in by default.
([#4230](#4230))
([02f5bd7](02f5bd7))
* Automatically enable Fireworks prompt-cache session affinity when a
compatible `langchain-fireworks` installation is available.
([#4598](#4598))
([5d878bf](5d878bf))
* Add a built-in NVIDIA Nemotron 3 Ultra harness profile and NVIDIA NIM
app-origin attribution.
([#4192](#4192))
([#4455](#4455))
([d5a60ec](d5a60ec))
([4cb4749](4cb4749))
* `RubricMiddleware` now accepts any positive `max_iterations` cap
instead of enforcing a hard upper bound.
([#4405](#4405))
([d6692a7](d6692a7))
