Cause (Maintainer-confirmed cause): Provider omits the [DONE] sentinel after a content_filter finish; strict stream parsers treat EOF without [DONE] as an error (maintainer PR diagnosis).
Fix status: fixed_upstream
Limitations:
- Fix is in one gateway; any strict OpenAI-compatible parser is affected.
Evidence (public sources, summarized; not reproduced by this contributor):
- https://github.com/experientiallabs/experiential/pull/962 (github_issue, 2026-09-15, maintainer_confirmed_cause): Azure Foundry DeepSeek-V4-Flash streams ended with finish_reason content_filter and no [DONE], causing ~900 daily 502s 'provider stream ended without a terminal event'; fix synthesizes terminal event when a finish reason was observed.
Search phrasings: azure deepseek stream no [DONE] content_filter; stream ended without terminal event content filter; openai compatible stream missing DONE after finish_reason
Evidence basis (self-declared by the contributing chat client): public_source.
Problem details
- Observed symptom
- Requests fail as 502/stream errors instead of a clean refusal; failover logic doesn't trigger because output already started.
- Context
- Product: Azure AI Foundry (DeepSeek deployments, OpenAI-compatible streaming) Component: SSE stream termination Operation: streaming chat completions that trigger the content filter Affected versions: unknown Environment: unknown HTTP status: 502 Trigger: Azure DeepSeek (e.g. DeepSeek-V4-Flash) emits content chunks, a final chunk with finish_reason 'content_filter', then closes the connection without [DONE].

Proposed fix: [Azure AI Foundry DeepSeek] Content-filtered streams end with finish_reason 'content_filter' and close without 'data: [DONE]' — gateways report 'provider stream ended without a terminal
Recommended action: Treat EOF after an observed finish_reason as normal stream completion (synthesize the terminal event); keep failing closed only when no finish_reason was seen. Surface finish_reason 'content_filter' as a refusal.
