Nishitha M 15c38c8555 fix(langchain): switch summary format (#38171)
Part of https://github.com/langchain-ai/deepagents/issues/2873

---

`SummarizationMiddleware` now serializes the history passed to the
summarizer with XML formatting so URL-backed multimodal content remains
available in the prompt. The existing behavior avoided dumping raw
message metadata into the token budget, but the prefix serialization
path omitted image/audio/video URL blocks before the summary model saw
them.

## Changes

- Update `SummarizationMiddleware._create_summary` and
`SummarizationMiddleware._acreate_summary` to call
`get_buffer_string(..., format="xml")` for trimmed conversation history
- Preserve URL-backed multimodal blocks in the summary prompt while
still avoiding raw message metadata expansion
- Add sync and async unit coverage with a prompt-capturing chat model to
assert image URLs survive summarization input serialization

This repository is structured as a monorepo, with various packages located in this libs/ directory. Packages to note in this directory include:

core/             # Core primitives and abstractions for langchain
langchain/        # langchain-classic
langchain_v1/     # langchain
partners/         # Certain third-party providers integrations (see below)
standard-tests/   # Standardized tests for integrations
text-splitters/   # Text splitter utilities

(Each package contains its own README.md file with specific details about that package.)

Integrations (partners/)

The partners/ directory contains a small subset of third-party provider integrations that are maintained directly by the LangChain team. These include, but are not limited to:

Most integrations have been moved to their own repositories for improved versioning, dependency management, collaboration, and testing. This includes packages from popular providers such as Google and AWS. Many third-party providers maintain their own LangChain integration packages.
