Dev Engineer Review

MiniMaxM2ToolParser.parse_streaming_increment now drops already-emitted prefix text from its buffer and searches for a partial invocation after the last complete invocation. It reuses a streamed tool name and emits only new argument JSON suffixes when an invocation completes. These changes address duplicate prefix text, repeated arguments, duplicate tool names, and partial matches across closed invocations. The non-streaming parser remains unchanged.

QA Engineer Review

tests/unittest/llmapi/apps/test_tool_parsers.py adds parameterized coverage for chunk sizes 1, 4, and 9. The test checks two tool calls and reconstructed arguments. Another test checks that text received with the opening tool-call tag appears once. The supplied validation reports that the small-chunks regression test passes after the fix and that the test file passes locally on CPU. Coverage verdict: sufficient for the reported streaming regressions. Integration test-list status is not applicable to these unit tests.

Per-File QA Perspective

  • tensorrt_llm/serve/tool_parser/minimax_m2_parser.py: Verify that prefix text appears once, argument deltas contain only new JSON suffixes, and completed calls do not create duplicate names or false partial invocations.
  • tests/unittest/llmapi/apps/test_tool_parsers.py: Tests cover incremental parsing across three chunk sizes, multiple invocations, argument reconstruction, and prefix emission. This is a unit test file, so integration test-list status is not applicable.

Description

Fixes #19755.

When a MiniMax-M2 tool call is streamed over several chunks, MiniMaxM2ToolParser.parse_streaming_increment re-sent the whole arguments JSON every time a parameter completed, and when </invoke> arrived it emitted the function name again under the next tool index. A client concatenating tool_calls[].function.arguments deltas received invalid JSON such as {"city": "Paris"}{"city": "Paris", "unit": "celsius"} plus a phantom second tool call. The partial-invoke regex could also match across an already-closed invoke and emit a garbage name.

This change:

  • streams partial arguments as an open-object prefix and sends only the newly added suffix;
  • when the invoke completes, sends only the remaining suffix (no second name item) if the name was already streamed;
  • searches for a partial invoke only after the last complete one.

Non-streaming parsing is unchanged. A streamed vs. one-shot comparison over several chunk sizes now produces identical tool calls.

Test Coverage

  • tests/unittest/llmapi/apps/test_tool_parsers.py::TestMiniMaxM2ToolParser::test_parse_streaming_increment_small_chunks (new; fails before the fix, passes after)
  • tests/unittest/llmapi/apps/test_tool_parsers.py (all pass locally on CPU; this file is in l0_cpu.yml)

Also fixed in the same streaming path (from review): text that arrives in the same delta as <minimax:tool_call> is no longer re-emitted on every later increment; covered by test_streaming_prefix_in_same_chunk_not_repeated.

When a MiniMax-M2 tool call arrived over several streaming chunks, the
parser re-sent the whole arguments JSON every time a parameter
completed, and once the invoke closed it emitted the function name again
under the next tool index. Clients that concatenate argument deltas got
invalid JSON such as '{"city": "Paris"}{"city": "Paris", "unit": ...}'
plus a phantom second tool call.

Stream the partial arguments as an open-object prefix, send only the
remaining suffix when the invoke completes, and look for the next
partial invoke only after the last complete one.

Walkthrough

The MiniMax M2 streaming parser now searches for unfinished invocations after completed ones, avoids re-emitting streamed tool names, and sends only new argument content. Tests cover multiple calls across chunk sizes and prose emitted with a tool-call start token.

Streaming calls with repeated parameter names can return malformed arguments. This is a narrow unresolved case that should be fixed or explicitly accepted before merging.

Assert incremental argument emission before </invoke>.

test_parse_streaming_increment_small_chunks only concatenates emitted parameters and decodes the final JSON. An implementation that buffers all arguments until </invoke> would also pass.

Add a staged case that sends one complete parameter without closing the invoke and asserts the open-object prefix. Then send the second parameter with the closing tag and assert that the next output contains only the remaining suffix.

Handle repeated parameter names before slicing argument deltas.

Repeated parameter names use last-value-wins semantics. If location=NYC is streamed first and location=Paris completes the same invocation later, the partial path emits {"location": "NYC" and the completion path emits s"}. The accumulated arguments become {"location": "NYC"s"}, which is invalid JSON. One-shot parsing correctly returns {"location": "Paris"}.

Define an explicit duplicate-parameter error policy before streaming, or buffer the arguments until completion if last-value-wins behavior must remain supported. Add a regression test with the repeated parameter tags in separate chunks.

LGTM: the streamed argument deltas now match the non-streaming parse. One non-blocking, pre-existing issue inline.

Not from this PR, but same streaming path: prefix_text (L187) is recomputed from self._buffer, which is only trimmed at </minimax:tool_call>, so any text that arrived in the same delta as <minimax:tool_call> is returned again on every later increment. With the MiniMax-M2 tokenizer and stream_interval=4, "I'll check the weather in Paris for you." streams as "...for you........." (one extra "." per delta until the block closes). Setting self._buffer = current_text[tc_start:] after reading the prefix fixes it. Fine to leave for a follow-up if you want to keep this PR narrow.

Automatically added "ci: full pre-merge approved" because this PR has satisfied the required GitHub review approvals. Unresolved review conversations and other required checks remain independent merge requirements.

When text arrived in the same streaming delta as <minimax:tool_call>,
the parser returned it as normal text on every later increment until
the tool-call block closed, because the buffer was only trimmed at
</minimax:tool_call>. Drop the returned prefix from the buffer so it is
streamed exactly once.

Thanks for catching this. Since it's the same streaming path, I fixed it here: the buffer is now trimmed to start at <minimax:tool_call> right after the prefix is read, so text that arrives with the opening tag is streamed only once. Added test_streaming_prefix_in_same_chunk_not_repeated, which streams "I'll check the weather in Paris for you.minimax:tool_call..." across several deltas and checks that the sentence comes through exactly once (before the fix it was repeated on every increment until the block closed). Also merged the latest main.

[Bug]: MiniMax-M2 streaming tool parser re-sends full arguments and duplicates the tool call
