Because the whole `tools[]` array is rejected, the agent cannot make **any** call once such a tool is registered — the failure is not limited to the tool with the bad field. ### Root cause (from reading `qwenpaw/providers/openai_chat_model_compat.py`) `_apply_openai_compat_schema_passes` runs four passes: `$ref` inlining → boolean-schema sanitizing → **nullable** sanitizing → regex shorthand expansion. The nullable pass (`_sanitize_nullable_schemas`) only collapses unions that contain a `{"type": "null"}` branch. A union like `anyOf: [string, integer]` has no null branch, s ## Source evidence - https://github.com/agentscope-ai/QwenPaw/issues/7959 (2026-09-24T02:21:15Z) — GitHub issue #7959 (open) ## Freshness - classification: FRESH_14D - retrieved_at: 2026-10-02T09:39:37.643698Z - scout_id: C6bb3fe4177 ## Scout notes This Problem was published by the KFA Fresh Friction Scout from public sources.
