fix: prevent empty tool names from overwriting valid names in SSE deltas
This commit addresses the root cause identified in GitHub issues: - #7094: Empty function name cause Azure to reject the request - #7517: Tool call streaming broken in 0.64.0 with local LLM providers - #7579: Regression: Tool Name Lost in Streaming Chat Completions Root Cause (Issue #7579): The SSE streaming parser was unconditionally overwriting tool call names with values from subsequent deltas. Many providers (Azure OpenAI, LM Studio, etc.) send the tool name in the first delta, then send empty strings in subsequent deltas containing only arguments. Before this fix: 1. First delta: name="my_tool", arguments="{" 2. Second delta: name="", arguments="foo}" 3. Result: name gets overwritten with "" -> causes API errors The Fix (Two Layers): 1. ROOT CAUSE FIX (lines 165-170): Don't overwrite existing tool call names with empty strings during delta parsing. Only update the name if the new value is non-empty. This preserves the name from the first delta. 2. DEFENSIVE FIX (lines 228-251): Even with the root cause fixed, we add defensive handling at the emission point to skip any tool calls that somehow end up with empty/missing names, with debug logging to help diagnose issues. Test Coverage: - preserves_name_when_subsequent_deltas_have_empty_names: Tests the root cause scenario (name in first delta, empty in subsequent) - skips_tool_calls_with_empty_or_missing_names: Tests the defensive layer for edge cases This fixes compatibility with: - Azure OpenAI (via LiteLLM) - LM Studio - Other OpenAI-compatible local providers
