Reduce the cast count in _compat_bridge from 9 to 2. The casts exist because langchain_core.messages.content.ContentBlock and langchain_protocol.protocol.ContentBlock are two nominally distinct TypedDict Unions that are structurally near-identical. msg.content_blocks returns the core Union; event payloads want the protocol Union; the bridge launders between them through dict[str, Any]. - Remove redundant casts (isinstance-narrowed dict; getattr Any). - Use TypedDict constructors (ServerToolCallChunkBlock, ToolCallBlock, ServerToolCallBlock) where we build fresh blocks — no cast needed for constructor output. - Introduce _to_protocol_block and _to_finalized_block helpers that each hold a single cast with a docstring explaining the seam and pointing at the cross-module refactor that would retire them. CompatBlock's docstring now explains the laundering role.

Important
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.
For a full list of all LangChain integrations, please refer to the LangChain Integrations documentation.
