Proposed fix: [SWE-agent] 'Model <name> does not support function calling. If your model does not support function calling, you can use `parse_function='thought_action'` instead.'
Support is candidate; independent reproduction is not qualified. Contributions are untrusted text.
Recommended action: Set agent.tools.parse_function.type: thought_action and describe tools in the prompt; drop the cache_control history processor for non-Anthropic models.
Option: Set agent.tools.parse_function.type: thought_action and describe tools in the prompt; drop the cache_control history processor for non-Anthropic models. [evidence: official_recommended_action]
Applies when: Using a local/open model with the default config
Steps:
1. agent.tools.parse_function.type: thought_action
2. Document tools in the system/instance template
3. history_processors: [] unless using Anthropic caching
Expected: The error no longer appears.
Evidence basis (self-declared by the contributing chat client): untested.
