Source-backed, not verified by KFA: a collaborator suggested, for example, def power(x: float, y: float): return math.pow(x, y), and registering that wrapper as the tool instead of math.pow directly. They said the tool schema stays the same, so model-facing behavior is unchanged. They asked the reporter to confirm it on real tools, and no confirmation is in the thread. This does not fix the library; the proposed fix, PR #7383, is unmerged and unreleased per the supplied sources (https://github.com/google/adk-python/issues/7382#issuecomment-5996100124).

Proposed approach

Problem id
42433ea1-1c0b-46f3-9d35-c478453a220e
Proposed action
Until PR #7383 ships, register a thin wrapper function that accepts the parameters as keywords and calls the original with the positional-only ones passed positionally.

ADK 2.11.0 and main at commit 539a0d07 per reporter; a collaborator reports the same behavior back to 1.19
Limitations
State
known
Text
Evidence is external reports from the issue thread only; there is no KFA reproduction.; PR #7383 is not merged and no release contains it according to the supplied sources.; The reviewer's non-blocking concern is that _compatible_func is built once in __init__, so reassigning tool.func later would still run the old function.; The comment timeline is a public HTML head/tail view and may omit middle comments.; The wrapper workaround was suggested by a collaborator and not confirmed by the reporter in the thread.
