fix: drop empty-string enum values from Gemini tool schemas - #1532
Conversation
The Gemini API rejects a function declaration whose `enum`/`const` contains an
empty string. `answer_commit`'s `optional()` union accepts `z.literal("")`, so
every Gemini request that declared it failed with a 400 before the model ran.
- The Gemini branch of `ProviderTransform.schema` now drops empty-string `enum`
values and `const: ""`, keeping the branch type. Zod still validates the
actual tool arguments.
- `tool-schema-gemini.test.ts` runs every registered analyst/builder tool
through the Google and Vertex transforms and asserts no empty enum/const
remains, plus a unit case for the sanitizer.
Closes #1531

#1531requires Gemini schemas forgoogle/*andgoogle-vertex/*to remove empty-stringconstandenumvalues without changing runtime Zod validation. The transform dropsconst: "", removes all-empty enums, filters empty values from mixed enums, and preserves or assignstype: "string"when needed. The new test covers Google and Google Vertex analyst and builder tools, plus focused sanitizer cases. The change is limited to the provider-facing schema projection.

- Line 1618: Update the schema transformation handling `key === "const"` and
`value === ""` so removing an untyped empty-string const preserves the branch as
`type: "string"` rather than leaving an unconstrained schema. Add coverage for
this untyped empty-string const branch.
- Around line 1619-1625: Update the enum handling in the schema sanitizer so an
empty `enum` array is treated separately from arrays containing only empty
strings. Preserve its impossible constraint or encode/reject it using a
Gemini-compatible representation; do not remove it and leave the branch type
unrestricted.

…opped for Gemini
- Dropping an empty-string `const`/`enum` from a node without `type` left `{}`, which accepts any value; set `type: "string"` instead
- Leave an empty `enum: []` untouched rather than treating it as all-empty-strings
- Add tests for untyped `const`, untyped `enum`, nullable literal, and empty `enum`

Closes #1531
Type of change
What does this PR do?
Why: Gemini models (
google/*,google-vertex/*) currently fail every analyst-agent request with a 400 before the model runs:Root cause:
answer_commit'soptional()helper unionsz.literal(""), so that strict-schema providers' blank fillers count as absent. That literal is emitted asconst: "", and the Gemini API rejects empty-string enum/const values. The Gemini branch ofProviderTransform.schemastringified enum values but never dropped empty ones.What changed: the Gemini sanitizer in
provider/transform.tsnow dropsconst: "", skips enums whose values are all empty, and filters empty strings out of mixed enums. The branch keeps itstype. This only changes the provider-facing schema: Zod still validates the arguments the model actually sends, so""is still accepted as "absent" at runtime. Other providers' schema paths are untouched.{type:"string", const:""}becomes{type:"string"}, andenum:["", "a"]becomesenum:["a"].Tenant/user impact: anyone using a Gemini model with the analyst agent, which is currently fully broken. No change for other providers.
Deployment readiness: self-contained.

Scoped to Gemini/Google schema sanitization before API calls; runtime validation is unchanged and other providers are untouched.
Overview
Fixes Gemini / Vertex tool requests that returned 400 because function-declaration schemas included empty-string
constorenumvalues (e.g. fromanswer_commit’soptional()z.literal("")), which the API rejects with “cannot be empty”.The Gemini branch of
ProviderTransform.schema(sanitizeGemini) now stripsconst: "", omits enums that are only empty strings, and filters""out of mixed enums while keeping the branch’s type. If dropping an empty literal would leave an untyped node as{}, it is coerced totype: "string". This only changes the provider-facing JSON Schema; Zod still validates tool args at runtime.Adds
