Python: Fix BedrockChatClient sending invalid toolChoice "none" to Bedrock API#4535
Python: Fix BedrockChatClient sending invalid toolChoice "none" to Bedrock API#4535LEDazzio01 wants to merge 1 commit intomicrosoft:mainfrom
Conversation
Bedrock's Converse API only accepts "auto", "any", or "tool" as valid
toolChoice keys. The previous code mapped tool_choice="none" to
{"none": {}}, which causes a botocore.exceptions.ParamValidationError.
When tool_choice="none" (set by FunctionInvocationLayer after exhausting
max iterations), the fix now omits toolConfig entirely so the model
won't attempt tool calls.
Added tests for tool_choice="none", "auto", and "required" modes.
Fixes microsoft#4529

Pull request overview
Fixes Bedrock Converse request generation so tool_choice="none" no longer produces an invalid toolConfig.toolChoice: {"none": {}} payload that the Bedrock API rejects, and adds unit coverage for the supported tool-choice modes.
Changes:
- Update
BedrockChatClient._prepare_options()to omittoolConfigentirely whentool_choice="none", while keepingauto/requiredbehavior intact. - Add unit tests validating
toolConfigomission/inclusion fornone/auto/required. - Refactor Bedrock client invocation/response parsing in a few areas (e.g.,
_invoke_converse, more defensive parsing, and typing adjustments).

The header # type: ignore does not disable type checking for the module in mypy/pyright (mypy uses # mypy: ignore-errors, pyright uses # pyright: ignore). As written, this comment is misleading and may not achieve the intended suppression; consider removing it or switching to the correct per-tool directive / targeted ignores.

In the streaming path, parsed_response.finish_reason is already normalized by _process_converse_response (via _map_finish_reason). Mapping it again with _map_finish_reason turns values like "stop" into None, so streamed ChatResponseUpdate.finish_reason will be incorrect/missing. Use parsed_response.finish_reason directly (or capture the raw Bedrock completion reason before mapping).

if client: relies on truthiness; a valid injected client/stub that defines __bool__/__len__ as falsey would be ignored and a boto3 client would be created instead. Prefer an explicit if client is not None: check (consistent with other modules in this repo).

@copilot Thanks for the review! All 3 comments reference pre-existing code from
Happy to open a separate cleanup PR for these if desired, but keeping this PR focused on the #4529 fix. |
Motivation and Context
When
FunctionInvocationLayerexhausts its max iterations or hits the error threshold, it setstool_choice="none"for a final "wrap-up" LLM call (to get a plain-text summary).BedrockChatClient._prepare_options()then maps this totoolConfig.toolChoice: {"none": {}}, but the AWS BedrockConverse/ConverseStreamAPI only acceptsauto,any, ortoolas validtoolChoicekeys — causing abotocore.exceptions.ParamValidationError.Fixes #4529
Description
Split the
case "auto" | "none"match branch in_prepare_options:"none": Settool_config = NonesotoolConfigis omitted entirely from the Bedrock request. This matches the semantic intent ("don't use tools on this call") and is consistent with how the OpenAI client handlestool_choice="none"."auto": Unchanged — emits{"auto": {}}as before.Also added
tool_config = tool_config or {}inside each individual branch ("auto","required") instead of before thematchstatement, so"none"can cleanly settool_config = Nonewithout it being overwritten.Tests
Added 3 new test cases:
