Summary

When a Bedrock-native invoke request includes a tool-search conversation turn, the assistant's server_tool_use and tool_search_tool_result blocks must be echoed back unchanged on the next turn. Previously, BedrockContentBlock.UnmarshalJSON had no handling for these block types, so both fell through to empty structs and were silently dropped — leaving the model in a state where it had called a tool it never discovered.

Changes

  • Added server_tool_use and tool_search_tool_result cases to BedrockContentBlock.UnmarshalJSON, populating new AnthropicToolSearchUse and AnthropicToolSearchResult carriers (tagged json:"-" since Converse has no wire slot for either)
  • Added a pre-scan in convertSingleBedrockMessageToBifrostMessages that pairs each tool_search_tool_result block to its matching server_tool_use by ID, so the complete tool_search_call item (including discovered tool references) is emitted when the use block is encountered
  • tool_search_tool_result blocks are skipped during the main content loop after being consumed by the pre-scan; server_tool_use blocks are converted into a neutral ResponsesMessageTypeToolSearchCall message that the egress converter can re-emit verbatim
  • Tool references are extracted from both the nested (content.tool_references) and flat (tool_references) spellings to mirror the existing AnthropicContentBlock.DiscoveredToolReferences behaviour
  • Only tool_search_tool_ prefixed server tools are carried through; other Anthropic server tools are left unhandled to avoid silent behaviour changes

Type of change

  • Bug fix
  • Feature
  • Refactor
  • Documentation
  • Chore/CI

Affected areas

  • Core (Go)
  • Transports (HTTP)
  • Providers/Integrations
  • Plugins
  • UI (React)
  • Docs

How to test

go test ./core/providers/bedrock/... -run TestToBedrockConverseRequest_InvokeToolSearchReplay
go test ./core/providers/bedrock/...

The new TestToBedrockConverseRequest_InvokeToolSearchReplay test constructs a two-turn tool-search conversation on the invoke ingress and asserts that:

  1. The replayed server_tool_use/tool_search_tool_result pair survives as a tool_search_call item with the correct tool references
  2. The subsequent tool_use block calling the discovered tool is still present
  3. The request continues to route through the Anthropic invoke path rather than Converse

Breaking changes

  • Yes
  • No

Related issues

Closes #7155

Security considerations

No auth, secrets, or PII implications. The fix is scoped to JSON unmarshalling and message conversion for a specific Anthropic server tool type.

Checklist

  • I read docs/contributing/README.md and followed the guidelines
  • I added/updated tests where appropriate
  • I updated documentation where needed
  • I verified builds succeed (Go and UI)
  • I verified the CI pipeline passes locally if applicable

📝 Summary

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features

    • Added support for Anthropic server-side tool search in Bedrock requests and responses.
    • Preserves search queries, tool references, and search activity during conversation replay and conversion.
    • Supports nested and flat tool-reference formats.
    • Preserves deferred-loading settings for supported tools.
    • Supports server-side search activity in both streaming and non-streaming responses.
  • Bug Fixes

    • Prevented server-side searches from being represented as client function calls.
    • Safely ignores unrecognized tool-search data without interrupting request processing.

Walkthrough

Bedrock now preserves Anthropic server-side tool-search data across InvokeModel and Converse conversions. Supported search variants route through InvokeModel, deferred tools retain their flags, and replayed results preserve references and search arguments.

Changes

Anthropic tool-search replay

Layer / File(s) Summary
Tool-search data contracts
core/providers/bedrock/types.go
Bedrock types preserve replay-only tool-search uses, results, references, search definitions, deferred-loading flags, and InvokeModel result payloads.
Ingress normalization and streaming
core/providers/bedrock/invoke.go
Invoke ingress preserves recognized search variants and deferred tools. Streaming conversion emits server_tool_use blocks and closes matching block indexes.
Responses replay conversion and validation
core/providers/bedrock/responses.go, core/providers/bedrock/invoke_test.go
Responses conversion pairs search uses with references and emits completed tool_search_call messages. Tests cover routing, deferred loading, streaming, non-streaming, and end-to-end replay behavior.

The base branch was changed.

Anthropic requires the client to echo the assistant's server_tool_use and
tool_search_tool_result back unchanged on the next turn: "On the next request,
pass the assistant's content back unchanged." BedrockContentBlock.UnmarshalJSON
decoded only image, tool_use, tool_result and thinking, so both blocks hit no
case, fell through to an empty struct, and vanished.

The model was then shown a turn in which it called a tool it had never
discovered - the same silent-drop shape as the request-side bug in #7155, in
the other direction.

Decode both onto json:"-" carriers and rebuild the neutral tool_search_call
from the pair, matching on server_tool_use.id == result.tool_use_id via a
pre-scan, the way nova_code_interpreter results are already paired. The
references are read from the nested content object, with the flat spelling
accepted as a fallback, mirroring DiscoveredToolReferences on the Anthropic
side.

Only tool search is decoded here. Every other Anthropic server tool is either
Converse-representable or unsupported on this ingress, and reshaping one would
be a behaviour change well beyond this issue.

[Bug]: Bedrock-native invoke ingress silently drops Anthropic tool search (tool_search_tool_* / defer_loading) → served eagerly over Converse
