**Description:** ConversationChain has been deprecated, and the
documentation says to use RunnableWithMessageHistory in its place, but
the link at the top of the page to RunnableWithMessageHistory is broken
(it's rendering as "html()"). See here at the top of the page:
https://python.langchain.com/api_reference/langchain/chains/langchain.chains.conversation.base.ConversationChain.html.
This PR fixes the link.
**Issue**: N/A
**Dependencies**: N/A

Scheduled testing started failing today because the Responses API
stopped raising `BadRequestError` for a schema that was previously
invalid when `strict=True`.
Although docs still say that [some type-specific keywords are not yet
supported](https://platform.openai.com/docs/guides/structured-outputs#some-type-specific-keywords-are-not-yet-supported)
(including `minimum` and `maximum` for numbers), the below appears to
run and correctly respect the constraints:
```python
import json
import openai
maximums = list(range(1, 11))
arg_values = []
for maximum in maximums:
tool = {
"type": "function",
"name": "magic_function",
"description": "Applies a magic function to an input.",
"parameters": {
"properties": {
"input": {"maximum": maximum, "minimum": 0, "type": "integer"}
},
"required": ["input"],
"type": "object",
"additionalProperties": False
},
"strict": True
}
client = openai.OpenAI()
response = client.responses.create(
model="gpt-4.1",
input=[{"role": "user", "content": "What is the value of magic_function(3)? Use the tool."}],
tools=[tool],
)
function_call = next(item for item in response.output if item.type == "function_call")
args = json.loads(function_call.arguments)
arg_values.append(args["input"])
print(maximums)
print(arg_values)
# [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10]
# [1, 2, 3, 3, 3, 3, 3, 3, 3, 3]
```
Until yesterday this raised BadRequestError.
The same is not true of Chat Completions, which appears to still raise
BadRequestError
```python
tool = {
"type": "function",
"function": {
"name": "magic_function",
"description": "Applies a magic function to an input.",
"parameters": {
"properties": {
"input": {"maximum": 5, "minimum": 0, "type": "integer"}
},
"required": ["input"],
"type": "object",
"additionalProperties": False
},
"strict": True
}
}
response = client.chat.completions.create(
model="gpt-4.1",
messages=[{"role": "user", "content": "What is the value of magic_function(3)? Use the tool."}],
tools=[tool],
)
response # raises BadRequestError
```
Here we update tests accordingly.
