+# Contributor Covenant Code of Conduct
+
+## Our Pledge
+
+We as members, contributors, and leaders pledge to make participation in our
+community a harassment-free experience for everyone, regardless of age, body
+size, visible or invisible disability, ethnicity, sex characteristics, gender
+identity and expression, level of experience, education, socio-economic status,
+nationality, personal appearance, race, caste, color, religion, or sexual
+identity and orientation.
+
+We pledge to act and interact in ways that contribute to an open, welcoming,
+diverse, inclusive, and healthy community.
+
+## Our Standards
+
+Examples of behavior that contributes to a positive environment for our
+community include:
+
+* Demonstrating empathy and kindness toward other people
+* Being respectful of differing opinions, viewpoints, and experiences
+* Giving and gracefully accepting constructive feedback
+* Accepting responsibility and apologizing to those affected by our mistakes,
+  and learning from the experience
+* Focusing on what is best not just for us as individuals, but for the overall
+  community
+
+Examples of unacceptable behavior include:
+
+* The use of sexualized language or imagery, and sexual attention or advances of
+  any kind
+* Trolling, insulting or derogatory comments, and personal or political attacks
+* Public or private harassment
+* Publishing others' private information, such as a physical or email address,
+  without their explicit permission
+* Other conduct which could reasonably be considered inappropriate in a
+  professional setting
+
+## Enforcement Responsibilities
+
+Community leaders are responsible for clarifying and enforcing our standards of
+acceptable behavior and will take appropriate and fair corrective action in
+response to any behavior that they deem inappropriate, threatening, offensive,
+or harmful.
+
+Community leaders have the right and responsibility to remove, edit, or reject
+comments, commits, code, wiki edits, issues, and other contributions that are
+not aligned to this Code of Conduct, and will communicate reasons for moderation
+decisions when appropriate.
+
+## Scope
+
+This Code of Conduct applies within all community spaces, and also applies when
+an individual is officially representing the community in public spaces.
+Examples of representing our community include using an official e-mail address,
+posting via an official social media account, or acting as an appointed
+representative at an online or offline event.
+
+## Enforcement
+
+Instances of abusive, harassing, or otherwise unacceptable behavior may be
+reported to the community leaders responsible for enforcement at
+conduct@langchain.dev.
+All complaints will be reviewed and investigated promptly and fairly.
+
+All community leaders are obligated to respect the privacy and security of the
+reporter of any incident.
+
+## Enforcement Guidelines
+
+Community leaders will follow these Community Impact Guidelines in determining
+the consequences for any action they deem in violation of this Code of Conduct:
+
+### 1. Correction
+
+**Community Impact**: Use of inappropriate language or other behavior deemed
+unprofessional or unwelcome in the community.
+
+**Consequence**: A private, written warning from community leaders, providing
+clarity around the nature of the violation and an explanation of why the
+behavior was inappropriate. A public apology may be requested.
+
+### 2. Warning
+
+**Community Impact**: A violation through a single incident or series of
+actions.
+
+**Consequence**: A warning with consequences for continued behavior. No
+interaction with the people involved, including unsolicited interaction with
+those enforcing the Code of Conduct, for a specified period of time. This
+includes avoiding interactions in community spaces as well as external channels
+like social media. Violating these terms may lead to a temporary or permanent
+ban.
+
+### 3. Temporary Ban
+
+**Community Impact**: A serious violation of community standards, including
+sustained inappropriate behavior.
+
+**Consequence**: A temporary ban from any sort of interaction or public
+communication with the community for a specified period of time. No public or
+private interaction with the people involved, including unsolicited interaction
+with those enforcing the Code of Conduct, is allowed during this period.
+Violating these terms may lead to a permanent ban.
+
+### 4. Permanent Ban
+
+**Community Impact**: Demonstrating a pattern of violation of community
+standards, including sustained inappropriate behavior, harassment of an
+individual, or aggression toward or disparagement of classes of individuals.
+
+**Consequence**: A permanent ban from any sort of public interaction within the
+community.
+

+- Changes should be backwards compatible.
+- Make sure optional dependencies are imported within a function.

+# Global Development Guidelines for LangChain Projects
+
+## Core Development Principles
+
+### 1. Maintain Stable Public Interfaces ⚠️ CRITICAL
+
+**Always attempt to preserve function signatures, argument positions, and names for exported/public methods.**
+
+❌ **Bad - Breaking Change:**
+
+```python
+def get_user(id, verbose=False):  # Changed from `user_id`
+    pass
+```
+
+✅ **Good - Stable Interface:**
+
+```python
+def get_user(user_id: str, verbose: bool = False) -> User:
+    """Retrieve user by ID with optional verbose output."""
+    pass
+```
+
+**Before making ANY changes to public APIs:**
+
+- Check if the function/class is exported in `__init__.py`
+- Look for existing usage patterns in tests and examples
+- Use keyword-only arguments for new parameters: `*, new_param: str = "default"`
+- Mark experimental features clearly with docstring admonitions (using MkDocs Material, like `!!! warning`)
+
+🧠 *Ask yourself:* "Would this change break someone's code if they used it last week?"
+
+### 2. Code Quality Standards
+
+**All Python code MUST include type hints and return types.**
+
+❌ **Bad:**
+
+```python
+def p(u, d):
+    return [x for x in u if x not in d]
+```
+
+✅ **Good:**
+
+```python
+def filter_unknown_users(users: list[str], known_users: set[str]) -> list[str]:
+    """Filter out users that are not in the known users set.
+
+    Args:
+        users: List of user identifiers to filter.
+        known_users: Set of known/valid user identifiers.
+
+    Returns:
+        List of users that are not in the known_users set.
+    """
+    return [user for user in users if user not in known_users]
+```
+
+**Style Requirements:**
+
+- Use descriptive, **self-explanatory variable names**. Avoid overly short or cryptic identifiers.
+- Attempt to break up complex functions (>20 lines) into smaller, focused functions where it makes sense
+- Avoid unnecessary abstraction or premature optimization
+- Follow existing patterns in the codebase you're modifying
+
+### 3. Testing Requirements
+
+**Every new feature or bugfix MUST be covered by unit tests.**
+
+**Test Organization:**
+
+- Unit tests: `tests/unit_tests/` (no network calls allowed)
+- Integration tests: `tests/integration_tests/` (network calls permitted)
+- Use `pytest` as the testing framework
+
+**Test Quality Checklist:**
+
+- [ ] Tests fail when your new logic is broken
+- [ ] Happy path is covered
+- [ ] Edge cases and error conditions are tested
+- [ ] Use fixtures/mocks for external dependencies
+- [ ] Tests are deterministic (no flaky tests)
+
+Checklist questions:
+
+- [ ] Does the test suite fail if your new logic is broken?
+- [ ] Are all expected behaviors exercised (happy path, invalid input, etc)?
+- [ ] Do tests use fixtures or mocks where needed?
+
+```python
+def test_filter_unknown_users():
+    """Test filtering unknown users from a list."""
+    users = ["alice", "bob", "charlie"]
+    known_users = {"alice", "bob"}
+
+    result = filter_unknown_users(users, known_users)
+
+    assert result == ["charlie"]
+    assert len(result) == 1
+```
+
+### 4. Security and Risk Assessment
+
+**Security Checklist:**
+
+- No `eval()`, `exec()`, or `pickle` on user-controlled input
+- Proper exception handling (no bare `except:`) and use a `msg` variable for error messages
+- Remove unreachable/commented code before committing
+- Race conditions or resource leaks (file handles, sockets, threads).
+- Ensure proper resource cleanup (file handles, connections)
+
+❌ **Bad:**
+
+```python
+def load_config(path):
+    with open(path) as f:
+        return eval(f.read())  # ⚠️ Never eval config
+```
+
+✅ **Good:**
+
+```python
+import json
+
+def load_config(path: str) -> dict:
+    with open(path) as f:
+        return json.load(f)
+```
+
+### 5. Documentation Standards
+
+**Use Google-style docstrings with Args and Returns sections for all public functions.**
+
+❌ **Insufficient Documentation:**
+
+```python
+def send_email(to, msg):
+    """Send an email to a recipient."""
+```
+
+✅ **Complete Documentation:**
+
+```python
+def send_email(to: str, msg: str, *, priority: str = "normal") -> bool:
+    """
+    Send an email to a recipient with specified priority.
+
+    Args:
+        to: The email address of the recipient.
+        msg: The message body to send.
+        priority: Email priority level.
+
+    Returns:
+        True if email was sent successfully, False otherwise.
+
+    Raises:
+        InvalidEmailError: If the email address format is invalid.
+        SMTPConnectionError: If unable to connect to email server.
+    """
+```
+
+**Documentation Guidelines:**
+
+- Types go in function signatures, NOT in docstrings
+- Focus on "why" rather than "what" in descriptions
+- Document all parameters, return values, and exceptions
+- Keep descriptions concise but clear
+
+📌 *Tip:* Keep descriptions concise but clear. Only document return values if non-obvious.
+
+### 6. Architectural Improvements
+
+**When you encounter code that could be improved, suggest better designs:**
+
+❌ **Poor Design:**
+
+```python
+def process_data(data, db_conn, email_client, logger):
+    # Function doing too many things
+    validated = validate_data(data)
+    result = db_conn.save(validated)
+    email_client.send_notification(result)
+    logger.log(f"Processed {len(data)} items")
+    return result
+```
+
+✅ **Better Design:**
+
+```python
+@dataclass
+class ProcessingResult:
+    """Result of data processing operation."""
+    items_processed: int
+    success: bool
+    errors: List[str] = field(default_factory=list)
+
+class DataProcessor:
+    """Handles data validation, storage, and notification."""
+
+    def __init__(self, db_conn: Database, email_client: EmailClient):
+        self.db = db_conn
+        self.email = email_client
+
+    def process(self, data: List[dict]) -> ProcessingResult:
+        """Process and store data with notifications.
+
+        Args:
+            data: List of data items to process.
+
+        Returns:
+            ProcessingResult with details of the operation.
+        """
+        validated = self._validate_data(data)
+        result = self.db.save(validated)
+        self._notify_completion(result)
+        return result
+```
+
+**Design Improvement Areas:**
+
+If there's a **cleaner**, **more scalable**, or **simpler** design, highlight it and suggest improvements that would:
+
+- Reduce code duplication through shared utilities
+- Make unit testing easier
+- Improve separation of concerns (single responsibility)
+- Make unit testing easier through dependency injection
+- Add clarity without adding complexity
+- Prefer dataclasses for structured data
+
+## Development Tools & Commands
+
+### Package Management
+
+```bash
+# Add package
+uv add package-name
+
+# Sync project dependencies
+uv sync
+uv lock
+```
+
+### Testing
+
+```bash
+# Run unit tests (no network)
+make test
+
+# Don't run integration tests, as API keys must be set
+
+# Run specific test file
+uv run --group test pytest tests/unit_tests/test_specific.py
+```
+
+### Code Quality
+
+```bash
+# Lint code
+make lint
+
+# Format code
+make format
+
+# Type checking
+uv run --group lint mypy .
+```
+
+### Dependency Management Patterns
+
+**Local Development Dependencies:**
+
+```toml
+[tool.uv.sources]
+langchain-core = { path = "../core", editable = true }
+langchain-tests = { path = "../standard-tests", editable = true }
+```
+
+**For tools, use the `@tool` decorator from `langchain_core.tools`:**
+
+```python
+from langchain_core.tools import tool
+
+@tool
+def search_database(query: str) -> str:
+    """Search the database for relevant information.
+
+    Args:
+        query: The search query string.
+    """
+    # Implementation here
+    return results
+```
+
+## Commit Standards
+
+**Use Conventional Commits format for PR titles:**
+
+- `feat(core): add multi-tenant support`
+- `!fix(cli): resolve flag parsing error` (breaking change uses exclamation mark)
+- `docs: update API usage examples`
+- `docs(openai): update API usage examples`
+
+## Framework-Specific Guidelines
+
+- Follow the existing patterns in `langchain_core` for base abstractions
+- Implement proper streaming support where applicable
+- Avoid deprecated components
+
+### Partner Integrations
+
+- Follow the established patterns in existing partner libraries
+- Implement standard interfaces (`BaseChatModel`, `BaseEmbeddings`, etc.)
+- Include comprehensive integration tests
+- Document API key requirements and authentication
+
+---
+
+## Quick Reference Checklist
+
+Before submitting code changes:
+
+- [ ] **Breaking Changes**: Verified no public API changes
+- [ ] **Type Hints**: All functions have complete type annotations
+- [ ] **Tests**: New functionality is fully tested
+- [ ] **Security**: No dangerous patterns (eval, silent failures, etc.)
+- [ ] **Documentation**: Google-style docstrings for public functions
+- [ ] **Code Quality**: `make lint` and `make format` pass
+- [ ] **Architecture**: Suggested improvements where applicable
+- [ ] **Commit Message**: Follows Conventional Commits format

-- **Core layer** (`langchain-core`): Base abstractions, interfaces, and protocols. Users should not need to know about this layer directly.
-- **Implementation layer** (`langchain`): Concrete implementations and high-level public utilities
-- **Integration layer** (`partners/`): Third-party service integrations. Note that this monorepo is not exhaustive of all LangChain integrations; some are maintained in separate repos, such as `langchain-ai/langchain-google` and `langchain-ai/langchain-aws`. Usually these repos are cloned at the same level as this monorepo, so if needed, you can refer to their code directly by navigating to `../langchain-google/` from this monorepo.
-- **Testing layer** (`standard-tests/`): Standardized integration tests for partner integrations
+✅ **Good - Stable Interface:**
 
-### Development tools & commands**
+```python
+def get_user(user_id: str, verbose: bool = False) -> User:
+    """Retrieve user by ID with optional verbose output."""
+    pass
+```
 
-- `uv` – Fast Python package installer and resolver (replaces pip/poetry)
-- `make` – Task runner for common development commands. Feel free to look at the `Makefile` for available commands and usage patterns.
-- `ruff` – Fast Python linter and formatter
-- `mypy` – Static type checking
-- `pytest` – Testing framework
+**Before making ANY changes to public APIs:**
 
-This monorepo uses `uv` for dependency management. Local development uses editable installs: `[tool.uv.sources]`
+- Check if the function/class is exported in `__init__.py`
+- Look for existing usage patterns in tests and examples
+- Use keyword-only arguments for new parameters: `*, new_param: str = "default"`
+- Mark experimental features clearly with docstring warnings (using MkDocs Material admonitions, like `!!! warning`)
 
-Each package in `libs/` has its own `pyproject.toml` and `uv.lock`.
+🧠 *Ask yourself:* "Would this change break someone's code if they used it last week?"
+
+### 2. Code Quality Standards
+
+**All Python code MUST include type hints and return types.**
+
+❌ **Bad:**
+
+```python
+def p(u, d):
+    return [x for x in u if x not in d]
+```
+
+✅ **Good:**
+
+```python
+def filter_unknown_users(users: list[str], known_users: set[str]) -> list[str]:
+    """Filter out users that are not in the known users set.
+
+    Args:
+        users: List of user identifiers to filter.
+        known_users: Set of known/valid user identifiers.
+
+    Returns:
+        List of users that are not in the known_users set.
+    """
+    return [user for user in users if user not in known_users]
+```
+
+**Style Requirements:**
+
+- Use descriptive, **self-explanatory variable names**. Avoid overly short or cryptic identifiers.
+- Attempt to break up complex functions (>20 lines) into smaller, focused functions where it makes sense
+- Avoid unnecessary abstraction or premature optimization
+- Follow existing patterns in the codebase you're modifying
+
+### 3. Testing Requirements
+
+**Every new feature or bugfix MUST be covered by unit tests.**
+
+**Test Organization:**
+
+- Unit tests: `tests/unit_tests/` (no network calls allowed)
+- Integration tests: `tests/integration_tests/` (network calls permitted)
+- Use `pytest` as the testing framework
+
+**Test Quality Checklist:**
+
+- [ ] Tests fail when your new logic is broken
+- [ ] Happy path is covered
+- [ ] Edge cases and error conditions are tested
+- [ ] Use fixtures/mocks for external dependencies
+- [ ] Tests are deterministic (no flaky tests)
+
+Checklist questions:
+
+- [ ] Does the test suite fail if your new logic is broken?
+- [ ] Are all expected behaviors exercised (happy path, invalid input, etc)?
+- [ ] Do tests use fixtures or mocks where needed?
+
+```python
+def test_filter_unknown_users():
+    """Test filtering unknown users from a list."""
+    users = ["alice", "bob", "charlie"]
+    known_users = {"alice", "bob"}
+
+    result = filter_unknown_users(users, known_users)
+
+    assert result == ["charlie"]
+    assert len(result) == 1
+```
+
+### 4. Security and Risk Assessment
+
+**Security Checklist:**
+
+- No `eval()`, `exec()`, or `pickle` on user-controlled input
+- Proper exception handling (no bare `except:`) and use a `msg` variable for error messages
+- Remove unreachable/commented code before committing
+- Race conditions or resource leaks (file handles, sockets, threads).
+- Ensure proper resource cleanup (file handles, connections)
+
+❌ **Bad:**
+
+```python
+def load_config(path):
+    with open(path) as f:
+        return eval(f.read())  # ⚠️ Never eval config
+```
+
+✅ **Good:**
+
+```python
+import json
+
+def load_config(path: str) -> dict:
+    with open(path) as f:
+        return json.load(f)
+```
+
+### 5. Documentation Standards
+
+**Use Google-style docstrings with Args section for all public functions.**
+
+❌ **Insufficient Documentation:**
+
+```python
+def send_email(to, msg):
+    """Send an email to a recipient."""
+```
+
+✅ **Complete Documentation:**
+
+```python
+def send_email(to: str, msg: str, *, priority: str = "normal") -> bool:
+    """
+    Send an email to a recipient with specified priority.
+
+    Args:
+        to: The email address of the recipient.
+        msg: The message body to send.
+        priority: Email priority level (`'low'`, `'normal'`, `'high'`).
+
+    Returns:
+        `True` if email was sent successfully, `False` otherwise.
+
+    Raises:
+        `InvalidEmailError`: If the email address format is invalid.
+        `SMTPConnectionError`: If unable to connect to email server.
+    """
+```
+
+**Documentation Guidelines:**
+
+- Types go in function signatures, NOT in docstrings
+  - If a default is present, DO NOT repeat it in the docstring unless there is post-processing or it is set conditionally.
+- Focus on "why" rather than "what" in descriptions
+- Document all parameters, return values, and exceptions
+- Keep descriptions concise but clear
+- Ensure American English spelling (e.g., "behavior", not "behaviour")
+
+📌 *Tip:* Keep descriptions concise but clear. Only document return values if non-obvious.
+
+### 6. Architectural Improvements
+
+**When you encounter code that could be improved, suggest better designs:**
+
+❌ **Poor Design:**
+
+```python
+def process_data(data, db_conn, email_client, logger):
+    # Function doing too many things
+    validated = validate_data(data)
+    result = db_conn.save(validated)
+    email_client.send_notification(result)
+    logger.log(f"Processed {len(data)} items")
+    return result
+```
+
+✅ **Better Design:**
+
+```python
+@dataclass
+class ProcessingResult:
+    """Result of data processing operation."""
+    items_processed: int
+    success: bool
+    errors: List[str] = field(default_factory=list)
+
+class DataProcessor:
+    """Handles data validation, storage, and notification."""
+
+    def __init__(self, db_conn: Database, email_client: EmailClient):
+        self.db = db_conn
+        self.email = email_client
+
+    def process(self, data: List[dict]) -> ProcessingResult:
+        """Process and store data with notifications."""
+        validated = self._validate_data(data)
+        result = self.db.save(validated)
+        self._notify_completion(result)
+        return result
+```
+
+**Design Improvement Areas:**
+
+If there's a **cleaner**, **more scalable**, or **simpler** design, highlight it and suggest improvements that would:
+
+- Reduce code duplication through shared utilities
+- Make unit testing easier
+- Improve separation of concerns (single responsibility)
+- Make unit testing easier through dependency injection
+- Add clarity without adding complexity
+- Prefer dataclasses for structured data

Note that this monorepo is not exhaustive of all LangChain integrations; some are maintained in separate repos, such as `langchain-ai/langchain-google` and `langchain-ai/langchain-aws`. Usually these repos are cloned at the same level as this monorepo, so if needed, you can refer to their code directly by navigating to `../langchain-google/` from this monorepo.

-### Development tools & commands**
+```python
+def get_user(user_id: str, verbose: bool = False) -> User:
+    """Retrieve user by ID with optional verbose output."""
+    pass
+```
 
-- `uv` – Fast Python package installer and resolver (replaces pip/poetry)
-- `make` – Task runner for common development commands. Feel free to look at the `Makefile` for available commands and usage patterns.
-- `ruff` – Fast Python linter and formatter
-- `mypy` – Static type checking
-- `pytest` – Testing framework
+**Before making ANY changes to public APIs:**
 
-This monorepo uses `uv` for dependency management. Local development uses editable installs: `[tool.uv.sources]`
+- Check if the function/class is exported in `__init__.py`
+- Look for existing usage patterns in tests and examples
+- Use keyword-only arguments for new parameters: `*, new_param: str = "default"`
+- Mark experimental features clearly with docstring warnings (using MkDocs Material admonitions, like `!!! warning`)
 
-Each package in `libs/` has its own `pyproject.toml` and `uv.lock`.
+🧠 *Ask yourself:* "Would this change break someone's code if they used it last week?"
+
+### 2. Code Quality Standards
+
+**All Python code MUST include type hints and return types.**
+
+❌ **Bad:**
+
+```python
+def p(u, d):
+    return [x for x in u if x not in d]
+```
+
+✅ **Good:**
+
+```python
+def filter_unknown_users(users: list[str], known_users: set[str]) -> list[str]:
+    """Filter out users that are not in the known users set.
+
+    Args:
+        users: List of user identifiers to filter.
+        known_users: Set of known/valid user identifiers.
+
+    Returns:
+        List of users that are not in the known_users set.
+    """
+    return [user for user in users if user not in known_users]
+```
+
+**Style Requirements:**
+
+- Use descriptive, **self-explanatory variable names**. Avoid overly short or cryptic identifiers.
+- Attempt to break up complex functions (>20 lines) into smaller, focused functions where it makes sense
+- Avoid unnecessary abstraction or premature optimization
+- Follow existing patterns in the codebase you're modifying
+
+### 3. Testing Requirements
+
+**Every new feature or bugfix MUST be covered by unit tests.**
+
+**Test Organization:**
+
+- Unit tests: `tests/unit_tests/` (no network calls allowed)
+- Integration tests: `tests/integration_tests/` (network calls permitted)
+- Use `pytest` as the testing framework
+
+**Test Quality Checklist:**
+
+- [ ] Tests fail when your new logic is broken
+- [ ] Happy path is covered
+- [ ] Edge cases and error conditions are tested
+- [ ] Use fixtures/mocks for external dependencies
+- [ ] Tests are deterministic (no flaky tests)
+
+Checklist questions:
+
+- [ ] Does the test suite fail if your new logic is broken?
+- [ ] Are all expected behaviors exercised (happy path, invalid input, etc)?
+- [ ] Do tests use fixtures or mocks where needed?
+
+```python
+def test_filter_unknown_users():
+    """Test filtering unknown users from a list."""
+    users = ["alice", "bob", "charlie"]
+    known_users = {"alice", "bob"}
+
+    result = filter_unknown_users(users, known_users)
+
+    assert result == ["charlie"]
+    assert len(result) == 1
+```
+
+### 4. Security and Risk Assessment
+
+**Security Checklist:**
+
+- No `eval()`, `exec()`, or `pickle` on user-controlled input
+- Proper exception handling (no bare `except:`) and use a `msg` variable for error messages
+- Remove unreachable/commented code before committing
+- Race conditions or resource leaks (file handles, sockets, threads).
+- Ensure proper resource cleanup (file handles, connections)
+
+❌ **Bad:**
+
+```python
+def load_config(path):
+    with open(path) as f:
+        return eval(f.read())  # ⚠️ Never eval config
+```
+
+✅ **Good:**
+
+```python
+import json
+
+def load_config(path: str) -> dict:
+    with open(path) as f:
+        return json.load(f)
+```
+
+### 5. Documentation Standards
+
+**Use Google-style docstrings with Args section for all public functions.**
+
+❌ **Insufficient Documentation:**
+
+```python
+def send_email(to, msg):
+    """Send an email to a recipient."""
+```
+
+✅ **Complete Documentation:**
+
+```python
+def send_email(to: str, msg: str, *, priority: str = "normal") -> bool:
+    """
+    Send an email to a recipient with specified priority.
+
+    Args:
+        to: The email address of the recipient.
+        msg: The message body to send.
+        priority: Email priority level (`'low'`, `'normal'`, `'high'`).
+
+    Returns:
+        `True` if email was sent successfully, `False` otherwise.
+
+    Raises:
+        `InvalidEmailError`: If the email address format is invalid.
+        `SMTPConnectionError`: If unable to connect to email server.
+    """
+```
+
+**Documentation Guidelines:**
+
+- Types go in function signatures, NOT in docstrings
+  - If a default is present, DO NOT repeat it in the docstring unless there is post-processing or it is set conditionally.
+- Focus on "why" rather than "what" in descriptions
+- Document all parameters, return values, and exceptions
+- Keep descriptions concise but clear
+- Ensure American English spelling (e.g., "behavior", not "behaviour")
+
+📌 *Tip:* Keep descriptions concise but clear. Only document return values if non-obvious.
+
+### 6. Architectural Improvements
+
+**When you encounter code that could be improved, suggest better designs:**
+
+❌ **Poor Design:**
+
+```python
+def process_data(data, db_conn, email_client, logger):
+    # Function doing too many things
+    validated = validate_data(data)
+    result = db_conn.save(validated)
+    email_client.send_notification(result)
+    logger.log(f"Processed {len(data)} items")
+    return result
+```
+
+✅ **Better Design:**
+
+```python
+@dataclass
+class ProcessingResult:
+    """Result of data processing operation."""
+    items_processed: int
+    success: bool
+    errors: List[str] = field(default_factory=list)
+
+class DataProcessor:
+    """Handles data validation, storage, and notification."""
+
+    def __init__(self, db_conn: Database, email_client: EmailClient):
+        self.db = db_conn
+        self.email = email_client
+
+    def process(self, data: List[dict]) -> ProcessingResult:
+        """Process and store data with notifications."""
+        validated = self._validate_data(data)
+        result = self.db.save(validated)
+        self._notify_completion(result)
+        return result
+```
+
+**Design Improvement Areas:**
+
+If there's a **cleaner**, **more scalable**, or **simpler** design, highlight it and suggest improvements that would:
+
+- Reduce code duplication through shared utilities
+- Make unit testing easier
+- Improve separation of concerns (single responsibility)
+- Make unit testing easier through dependency injection
+- Add clarity without adding complexity
+- Prefer dataclasses for structured data

+# Security Policy
+
+LangChain has a large ecosystem of integrations with various external resources like local and remote file systems, APIs and databases. These integrations allow developers to create versatile applications that combine the power of LLMs with the ability to access, interact with and manipulate external resources.
+
+## Best practices
+
+When building such applications, developers should remember to follow good security practices:
+
+* [**Limit Permissions**](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Principle_of_least_privilege): Scope permissions specifically to the application's need. Granting broad or excessive permissions can introduce significant security vulnerabilities. To avoid such vulnerabilities, consider using read-only credentials, disallowing access to sensitive resources, using sandboxing techniques (such as running inside a container), specifying proxy configurations to control external requests, etc., as appropriate for your application.
+* **Anticipate Potential Misuse**: Just as humans can err, so can Large Language Models (LLMs). Always assume that any system access or credentials may be used in any way allowed by the permissions they are assigned. For example, if a pair of database credentials allows deleting data, it's safest to assume that any LLM able to use those credentials may in fact delete data.
+* [**Defense in Depth**](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Defense_in_depth_(computing)): No security technique is perfect. Fine-tuning and good chain design can reduce, but not eliminate, the odds that a Large Language Model (LLM) may make a mistake. It's best to combine multiple layered security approaches rather than relying on any single layer of defense to ensure security. For example: use both read-only permissions and sandboxing to ensure that LLMs are only able to access data that is explicitly meant for them to use.
+
+Risks of not doing so include, but are not limited to:
+
+* Data corruption or loss.
+* Unauthorized access to confidential information.
+* Compromised performance or availability of critical resources.
+
+Example scenarios with mitigation strategies:
+
+* A user may ask an agent with access to the file system to delete files that should not be deleted or read the content of files that contain sensitive information. To mitigate, limit the agent to only use a specific directory and only allow it to read or write files that are safe to read or write. Consider further sandboxing the agent by running it in a container.
+* A user may ask an agent with write access to an external API to write malicious data to the API, or delete data from that API. To mitigate, give the agent read-only API keys, or limit it to only use endpoints that are already resistant to such misuse.
+* A user may ask an agent with access to a database to drop a table or mutate the schema. To mitigate, scope the credentials to only the tables that the agent needs to access and consider issuing READ-ONLY credentials.
+
+If you're building applications that access external resources like file systems, APIs or databases, consider speaking with your company's security team to determine how to best design and secure your applications.
+
+## Reporting OSS Vulnerabilities
+
+LangChain is partnered with [huntr by Protect AI](https://huntr.com/) to provide
+a bounty program for our open source projects.
+
+Please report security vulnerabilities associated with the LangChain
+open source projects at [huntr](https://huntr.com/bounties/disclose/?target=https%3A%2F%2Fgithub.com%2Flangchain-ai%2Flangchain&validSearch=true).
+
+Before reporting a vulnerability, please review:
+
+1) In-Scope Targets and Out-of-Scope Targets below.
+2) The [langchain-ai/langchain](https://docs.langchain.com/oss/python/contributing/code#repository-structure) monorepo structure.
+3) The [Best Practices](#best-practices) above to understand what we consider to be a security vulnerability vs. developer responsibility.
+
+### In-Scope Targets
+
+The following packages and repositories are eligible for bug bounties:
+
+* langchain-core
+* langchain (see exceptions)
+* langchain-community (see exceptions)
+* langgraph
+* langserve
+
+### Out of Scope Targets
+
+All out of scope targets defined by huntr as well as:
+
+* **langchain-experimental**: This repository is for experimental code and is not
+  eligible for bug bounties (see [package warning](https://pypi.org/project/langchain-experimental/)), bug reports to it will be marked as interesting or waste of
+  time and published with no bounty attached.
+* **tools**: Tools in either `langchain` or `langchain-community` are not eligible for bug
+  bounties. This includes the following directories
+  * `libs/langchain/langchain/tools`
+  * `libs/community/langchain_community/tools`
+  * Please review the [Best Practices](#best-practices)
+    for more details, but generally tools interact with the real world. Developers are
+    expected to understand the security implications of their code and are responsible
+    for the security of their tools.
+* Code documented with security notices. This will be decided on a case-by-case basis, but likely will not be eligible for a bounty as the code is already
+  documented with guidelines for developers that should be followed for making their
+  application secure.
+* Any LangSmith related repositories or APIs (see [Reporting LangSmith Vulnerabilities](#reporting-langsmith-vulnerabilities)).
+
+## Reporting LangSmith Vulnerabilities
+
+Please report security vulnerabilities associated with LangSmith by email to `security@langchain.dev`.
+
+* LangSmith site: [https://smith.langchain.com](https://smith.langchain.com)
+* SDK client: [https://github.com/langchain-ai/langsmith-sdk](https://github.com/langchain-ai/langsmith-sdk)

-"""Load LangChain objects from JSON strings or objects.
-
-## How it works
-
-Each `Serializable` LangChain object has a unique identifier (its "class path"), which
-is a list of strings representing the module path and class name. For example:
-
-- `AIMessage` -> `["langchain_core", "messages", "ai", "AIMessage"]`
-- `ChatPromptTemplate` -> `["langchain_core", "prompts", "chat", "ChatPromptTemplate"]`
-
-When deserializing, the class path from the JSON `'id'` field is checked against an
-allowlist. If the class is not in the allowlist, deserialization raises a `ValueError`.
-
-## Security model
-
-The `allowed_objects` parameter controls which classes can be deserialized:
-
-- **`'core'` (default)**: Allow classes defined in the serialization mappings for
-    langchain_core.
-- **`'all'`**: Allow classes defined in the serialization mappings. This
-    includes core LangChain types (messages, prompts, documents, etc.) and trusted
-    partner integrations. See `langchain_core.load.mapping` for the full list.
-- **Explicit list of classes**: Only those specific classes are allowed.
-
-For simple data types like messages and documents, the default allowlist is safe to use.
-These classes do not perform side effects during initialization.
-
-!!! note "Side effects in allowed classes"
-
-    Deserialization calls `__init__` on allowed classes. If those classes perform side
-    effects during initialization (network calls, file operations, etc.), those side
-    effects will occur. The allowlist prevents instantiation of classes outside the
-    allowlist, but does not sandbox the allowed classes themselves.
-
-Import paths are also validated against trusted namespaces before any module is
-imported.
-
-### Injection protection (escape-based)
-
-During serialization, plain dicts that contain an `'lc'` key are escaped by wrapping
-them: `{"__lc_escaped__": {...}}`. During deserialization, escaped dicts are unwrapped
-and returned as plain dicts, NOT instantiated as LC objects.
-
-This is an allowlist approach: only dicts explicitly produced by
-`Serializable.to_json()` (which are NOT escaped) are treated as LC objects;
-everything else is user data.
-
-Even if an attacker's payload includes `__lc_escaped__` wrappers, it will be unwrapped
-to plain dicts and NOT instantiated as malicious objects.
-
-## Examples
-
-```python
-from langchain_core.load import load
-from langchain_core.prompts import ChatPromptTemplate
-from langchain_core.messages import AIMessage, HumanMessage
