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.

- There was some ambiguous wording that has been updated to hopefully
clarify the functionality of `reasoning_format` in ChatGroq.
- Added support for `reasoning_effort`
- Added links to see models capable of `reasoning_format` and
`reasoning_effort`
- Other minor nits
Llama-3.1 started failing consistently with
> groq.BadRequestError: Error code: 400 - ***'error': ***'message':
"Failed to call a function. Please adjust your prompt. See
'failed_generation' for more details.", 'type': 'invalid_request_error',
'code': 'tool_use_failed', 'failed_generation':
'<function=brave_search>***"query": "Hello!"***</function>'***
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 :).
Tool-calling tests started intermittently failing with
> groq.APIError: Failed to call a function. Please adjust your prompt.
See 'failed_generation' for more details.
- 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).
The default model for `ChatGroq`, `"mixtral-8x7b-32768"`, is being
retired on March 20, 2025. Here we remove the default, such that model
names must be explicitly specified (being explicit is a good practice
here, and avoids the need for breaking changes down the line). This
change will be released in a minor version bump to 0.3.
This follows https://github.com/langchain-ai/langchain/pull/30161
(released in version 0.2.5), where we began generating warnings to this
effect.
Groq is retiring `mixtral-8x7b-32768`, which is currently the default
model for ChatGroq, on March 20. Here we emit a warning if the model is
not specified explicitly.
A version 0.3.0 will be released ahead of March 20 that removes the
default altogether.
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.
