Ensures proper reStructuredText formatting by adding the required blank
line before closing docstring quotes, which resolves the "Block quote
ends without a blank line; unexpected unindent" warning.
**TL;DR much of the provided `Makefile` targets were broken, and any
time I wanted to preview changes locally I either had to refer to a
command Chester gave me or try waiting on a Vercel preview deployment.
With this PR, everything should behave like normal.**
Significant updates to the `Makefile` and documentation files, focusing
on improving usability, adding clear messaging, and fixing/enhancing
documentation workflows.
### Updates to `Makefile`:
#### Enhanced build and cleaning processes:
- Added informative messages (e.g., "📚 Building LangChain
documentation...") to makefile targets like `docs_build`, `docs_clean`,
and `api_docs_build` for better user feedback during execution.
- Introduced a `clean-cache` target to the `docs` `Makefile` to clear
cached dependencies and ensure clean builds.
#### Improved dependency handling:
- Modified `install-py-deps` to create a `.venv/deps_installed` marker,
preventing redundant/duplicate dependency installations and improving
efficiency.
#### Streamlined file generation and infrastructure setup:
- Added caching for the LangServe README download and parallelized
feature table generation
- Added user-friendly completion messages for targets like `copy-infra`
and `render`.
#### Documentation server updates:
- Enhanced the `start` target with messages indicating server start and
URL for local documentation viewing.
---
### Documentation Improvements:
#### Content clarity and consistency:
- Standardized section titles for consistency across documentation
files.

This PR addresses the common issue where users struggle to pass custom
parameters to OpenAI-compatible APIs like LM Studio, vLLM, and others.
The problem occurs when users try to use `model_kwargs` for custom
parameters, which causes API errors.
## Problem
Users attempting to pass custom parameters (like LM Studio's `ttl`
parameter) were getting errors:
```python
# ❌ This approach fails
llm = ChatOpenAI(
base_url="http://localhost:1234/v1",
model="mlx-community/QwQ-32B-4bit",
model_kwargs={"ttl": 5} # Causes TypeError: unexpected keyword argument 'ttl'
)
```
## Solution
The `extra_body` parameter is the correct way to pass custom parameters
to OpenAI-compatible APIs:
```python
# ✅ This approach works correctly
llm = ChatOpenAI(
base_url="http://localhost:1234/v1",
model="mlx-community/QwQ-32B-4bit",
extra_body={"ttl": 5} # Custom parameters go in extra_body
)
```
## Changes Made
1. **Enhanced Documentation**: Updated the `extra_body` parameter
docstring with comprehensive examples for LM Studio, vLLM, and other
providers
2. **Added Documentation Section**: Created a new "OpenAI-compatible
APIs" section in the main class docstring with practical examples
3. **Unit Tests**: Added tests to verify `extra_body` functionality
works correctly:
- `test_extra_body_parameter()`: Verifies custom parameters are included
in request payload
- `test_extra_body_with_model_kwargs()`: Ensures `extra_body` and
`model_kwargs` work together
4. **Clear Guidance**: Documented when to use `extra_body` vs
`model_kwargs`
## Examples Added
**LM Studio with TTL (auto-eviction):**
```python
ChatOpenAI(
base_url="http://localhost:1234/v1",
api_key="lm-studio",
model="mlx-community/QwQ-32B-4bit",
extra_body={"ttl": 300} # Auto-evict after 5 minutes
)
```
**vLLM with custom sampling:**
```python
ChatOpenAI(
base_url="http://localhost:8000/v1",
api_key="EMPTY",
model="meta-llama/Llama-2-7b-chat-hf",
extra_body={
"use_beam_search": True,
"best_of": 4
}
)
```
## Why This Works
- `model_kwargs` parameters are passed directly to the OpenAI client's
`create()` method, causing errors for non-standard parameters
- `extra_body` parameters are included in the HTTP request body, which
is exactly what OpenAI-compatible APIs expect for custom parameters
Fixes#32115.

Follow up to https://github.com/langchain-ai/langsmith-sdk/pull/1696,
I've bumped the `langsmith` version where applicable in `uv.lock`.
Type checking problems here because deps have been updated in
`pyproject.toml` and `uv lock` hasn't been run - we should enforce that
in the future - goes with the other dependabot todos :).
Chat models currently implement support for:
- images in OpenAI Chat Completions format
- other multimodal types (e.g., PDF and audio) in a cross-provider
[standard
format](https://python.langchain.com/docs/how_to/multimodal_inputs/)
Here we update core to extend support to PDF and audio input in Chat
Completions format. **If an OAI-format PDF or audio content block is
passed into any chat model, it will be transformed to the LangChain
standard format**. We assume that any chat model supporting OAI-format
PDF or audio has implemented support for the standard format.
Generally, this PR is CI performance focused + aims to clean up some
dependencies at the same time.
1. Unpins upper bounds for `numpy` in all `pyproject.toml` files where
`numpy` is specified
2. Requires `numpy >= 2.1.0` for Python 3.13 and `numpy > v1.26.0` for
Python 3.12, plus a `numpy` min version bump for `chroma`
3. Speeds up CI by minutes - linting on Python 3.13, installing `numpy <
2.1.0` was taking [~3
minutes](https://github.com/langchain-ai/langchain/actions/runs/14316342925/job/40123305868?pr=30713),
now the entire env setup takes a few seconds
4. Deleted the `numpy` test dependency from partners where that was not
used, specifically `huggingface`, `voyageai`, `xai`, and `nomic`.
It's a bit unfortunate that `langchain-community` depends on `numpy`, we
might want to try to fix that in the future...
Closes https://github.com/langchain-ai/langchain/issues/26026
Fixes https://github.com/langchain-ai/langchain/issues/30555
We are implementing a token-counting callback handler in
`langchain-core` that is intended to work with all chat models
supporting usage metadata. The callback will aggregate usage metadata by
model. This requires responses to include the model name in its
metadata.
To support this, if a model `returns_usage_metadata`, we check that it
includes a string model name in its `response_metadata` in the
`"model_name"` key.
More context: https://github.com/langchain-ai/langchain/pull/30487
**Description:**
a third party package not listed in the default valid namespaces cannot
pass test_serdes because the load() does not allow for extending the
valid_namespaces.
test_serdes will fail with -
ValueError: Invalid namespace: {'lc': 1, 'type': 'constructor', 'id':
['langchain_other', 'chat_models', 'ChatOther'], 'kwargs':
{'model_name': '...', 'api_key': '...'}, 'name': 'ChatOther'}
this change has test_serdes automatically extend valid_namespaces based
off the ChatModel under test's namespace.
- Test if models support forcing tool calls via `tool_choice`. If they
do, they should support
- `"any"` to specify any tool
- the tool name as a string to force calling a particular tool
- Add `tool_choice` to signature of `BaseChatModel.bind_tools` in core
- Deprecate `tool_choice_value` in standard tests in favor of a boolean
`has_tool_choice`
Will follow up with PRs in external repos (tested in AWS and Google
already).
**description:** the ChatModel[Integration]Tests classes are powerful
and helpful, this change allows sub-classes to add additional tests.
for instance,
```
class TestChatMyServiceIntegration(ChatModelIntegrationTests):
...
def test_myservice(self, model: BaseChatModel) -> None:
...
```

- Support thinking blocks in core's `convert_to_openai_messages` (pass
through instead of error)
- Ignore thinking blocks in ChatOpenAI (instead of error)
- Support Anthropic-style image blocks in ChatOpenAI
---
Standard integration tests include a `supports_anthropic_inputs`
property which is currently enabled only for tests on `ChatAnthropic`.
This test enforces compatibility with message histories of the form:
```
- system message
- human message
- AI message with tool calls specified only through `tool_use` content blocks
- human message containing `tool_result` and an additional `text` block
```
It additionally checks support for Anthropic-style image inputs if
`supports_image_inputs` is enabled.
Here we change this test, such that if you enable
`supports_anthropic_inputs`:
- You support AI messages with text and `tool_use` content blocks
- You support Anthropic-style image inputs (if `supports_image_inputs`
is enabled)
- You support thinking content blocks.
That is, we add a test case for thinking content blocks, but we also
remove the requirement of handling tool results within HumanMessages
(motivated by existing agent abstractions, which should all return
ToolMessage). We move that requirement to a ChatAnthropic-specific test.
These are set in Github workflows, but forgot to add them to most
makefiles for convenience when developing locally.
`uv run` will automatically sync the lock file. Because many of our
development dependencies are local installs, it will pick up version
changes and update the lock file. Passing `--frozen` or setting this
environment variable disables the behavior.
