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

Does not support partial images during generation at the moment. Before
doing that I'd like to figure out how to specify the aggregation logic
without requiring changes in core.

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 :).
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...

Fixes https://github.com/langchain-ai/langchain/issues/30555
Related to https://github.com/langchain-ai/langchain/issues/30344https://github.com/langchain-ai/langchain/pull/30542 introduced an
erroneous test for token counts for o-series models. tiktoken==0.8 does
not support o-series models in
`tiktoken.encoding_for_model(model_name)`, and this is the version of
tiktoken we had in the lock file. So we would default to `cl100k_base`
for o-series, which is the wrong encoding model. The test tested against
this wrong encoding (so it passed with tiktoken 0.8).
Here we update tiktoken to 0.9 in the lock file, and fix the expected
counts in the test. Verified that we are pulling
[o200k_base](https://github.com/openai/tiktoken/blob/main/tiktoken/model.py#L8),
as expected.
