Summary

Fixes #13218

Provider-executed tools (web_search_call, x_search_call, code_execution_call, code_interpreter_call, view_image_call, view_x_video_call, custom_tool_call, mcp_call) never emitted tool-result in the xAI Responses API adapter, causing UIs to stay stuck on "input-available" / "in progress" state. Only file_search_call correctly emitted tool-result on response.output_item.done.

Changes

  • Streaming path (doStream): Added tool-result emission on response.output_item.done for all provider-executed tool types, matching how file_search_call already works
  • Non-streaming path (doGenerate): Added tool-result emission after tool-call for all provider-executed tool types, matching how file_search_call already works
  • MCP calls get structured results with output, error, and server_label fields
  • All other tool types get structured results with status and action fields
  • Updated existing tests to expect tool-result entries alongside tool-call entries
  • Added new streaming tests for web_search_call and mcp_call tool-result emission

Test plan

  • All 242 existing xAI tests pass (pnpm test:node)
  • 5 snapshots updated to include new tool-result entries
  • New test: streaming web_search_call emits tool-result on output_item.done
  • New test: streaming mcp_call emits tool-result on output_item.done
  • Existing tests verify tool-result not emitted on output_item.added (only on done)

Generated with Claude Code

Provider-executed tools (web_search, x_search, code_execution, mcp, etc.)
never emitted tool-result in the stream, causing UIs to stay stuck on
"input-available" state. Only file_search_call correctly emitted
tool-result on response.output_item.done.

This adds tool-result emission for all provider-executed tool types
(web_search_call, x_search_call, code_interpreter_call,
code_execution_call, view_image_call, view_x_video_call,
custom_tool_call, mcp_call) in both the streaming (doStream) and
non-streaming (doGenerate) paths.

Provider-executed tools (e.g. web_search) never emit tool-result in stream, so UI stays on "input-available"
