From 89bafbe9d9aa0380263e08806810e08ea1285694 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Federico Kamelhar Date: Thu, 28 May 2026 07:16:02 -0400 Subject: [PATCH] =?UTF-8?q?fix(deepagent):=20rename=20max=5Ftokens=20?= =?UTF-8?q?=E2=86=92=20total=5Ftoken=5Fbudget,=20default=20None=20(#278)?= MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit BREAKING: ``create_deepagent(max_tokens=...)`` is removed. Use ``total_token_budget=N`` for the run-level TokenLimit termination, or ``max_output_tokens=N`` for the per-completion output cap on each LLM call. Background — this is what was silently failing: The old ``max_tokens`` parameter controlled the TOTAL-RUN token budget (cumulative input+output across every iteration of one run), wired into the typed-termination algebra as ``TokenLimit(max_tokens)``. The name clashed with every LLM SDK on earth — OpenAI, Anthropic, Google all use ``max_tokens`` for the per-completion output cap. Callers reasonably passing ``max_tokens=65536`` expecting Gemini- style "max 65K output tokens per call" got Locus's ``TokenLimit(65536)`` termination instead. On any agent with a long system prompt (graph-grounded research, evaluator prompts, multi- datastore RAG context), the input alone exceeded the cap on iteration 1 → ``TokenLimit`` fired → run exited via ``TerminateEvent`` with empty output. No warning, no diagnostic. The old 80_000 default was harmful — any agent with a ~50K-token prompt was 1-2 iterations away from being silently killed. Cost real debugging hours in the observai/optic AFS DeepAgent integration before bisecting down to this. What changes: - ``max_tokens=`` kwarg removed entirely (beta SDK, no migration needed). Rejected loud via TypeError with a message pointing to the new names + version so any straggler call sites fail at the bound boundary instead of silently mis-behaving. - ``total_token_budget: int | None = None`` is the new name for the run-level TokenLimit cap. ``None`` (default) means no TokenLimit term in the termination algebra — the run is bounded only by ToolCalled+Confidence or MaxIterations. - ``max_output_tokens: int | None = None`` stays — this is the per-completion cap forwarded to ``AgentConfig.max_tokens`` (and from there to the model provider's per-request max_tokens field). This is the knob callers usually meant when they passed the old name. - Docstring carries a loud "naming note" + "breaking change" block so anyone hitting the TypeError finds the migration path immediately. Tests added: Unit (tests/unit/test_deepagent.py): - test_token_limit_omitted_when_budget_none — default doesn't add TokenLimit term (the foot-gun fix) - test_legacy_max_tokens_kwarg_rejected — TypeError with clear message; can't silently flow through to AgentConfig - test_max_output_tokens_propagated_independently_of_budget — per-completion cap lands on AgentConfig.max_tokens regardless of the run-budget setting - Updated test_typed_termination_attached to use the new name Integration stub (tests/integration/test_deepagent_token_budget.py): - 5 stub-mode tests covering bug shape + fix + loud rejection - No model calls; inspects termination tree directly Integration live (tests/integration/test_deepagent_token_budget_live.py): - Real OCI Gemini calls gated by RUN_LIVE_OCI=1 - Reproduces the bug shape with explicit 80K opt-in (passes) - Verifies real-output happy path (xfailed pending Locus bug #2: runtime_loop drops final assistant message when agent terminates via MaxIterations without calling submit_tool — tracked in a follow-up issue) Two related Locus bugs discovered during this work, NOT fixed here (will be filed as separate issues): #2 — runtime_loop's final-message flush path is conditional on the submit_tool exit branch; agents that terminate via MaxIterations / TokenLimit return AgentResult.text='' even when the model emitted completion tokens. Live test marks this xfail. #3 — OCIModel + Gemini rejects Pydantic-derived structured-output schemas containing additionalProperties:false ("Unsupported JSON Schema feature for Gemini"). Vendor-aware schema munging needed in the OCI provider. Out of scope here; live tests omit output_schema to avoid hitting this. Refs: #278 (this issue), observai/optic AFS DeepAgent integration end-to-end testing surfaced all three bugs.
