756eac0d1a feat(tool):Add structured synopsis for oversized tool output previews (#3377)
* Improve tool output preview synopsis

* Add JSON path anchors to tool output synopsis

* Fix JSON synopsis line anchors

* fix(synopsis): tighten detectors and fix CSV first-row join

Address review feedback from @willem-bd on PR #3377.

Detectors:
- _looks_yaml now requires >=3 key-shaped lines and refuses bare
  uppercase-tag lines ('INFO: ...', 'ERROR: ...') that look like log
  lines and would round-trip into a flat string dict via safe_load.
  Previously a 200-line log file was classified as 'YAML object with
  3 top-level keys' and lost every line, count, and middle signal.
- _try_yaml refuses payloads that safe_load collapses to a dict of
  all strings (the shape tracebacks and log lines collapse into).
- _try_table applies the header-must-look-like-identifiers and
  minimum-row-count guards only to TSV, since the same safeguards
  would reject legitimate small CSVs. Refuses tab-indented bash
  output, ls -l listings, and tree dumps.

Rendering:
- CSV first data row is now rendered as a key=value list joined by
  ' | ' (e.g. 'name=Ada | description="a fine, brilliant logician"
  | score=98'). The previous delimiter.join(rows[1]) silently
  re-split cells that contained the delimiter inside a quoted cell,
  which made the synopsis report a 3-column table as 5 columns and
  misled the model about column count and content.

Text summary:
- _summarize_text now omits the closing excerpt entirely when the
  input is shorter than 2 * _TEXT_EXCERPT_CHARS, since the previous
  opener/closer slices overlapped and duplicated text for short
  inputs (build_tool_output_synopsis is reachable directly from
  tests and other callers that pass small inputs).

Tests:
- Update test_table_preview_extracts_columns to assert the new
  key=value list format.

* fix(synopsis): drop JSON path line/byte offset hints

The path-location hint was computed by string-searching for the
quoted key in the original content and reporting its byte offset and
line number. This anchors at the first textual occurrence of the
key string, which is wrong when the key also appears as a value
earlier in the document, or when the same key recurs at multiple
depths. With nested paths the anchor drifts further on every step
because the search cursor is advanced past each previous match.

Concrete cases:
  content = '{"label": "items", "items": {"id": 1}}'
  _json_path_location(content, ['items'])
  -> ' (line 1, byte offset 10)'  # the value, not the key

  content = '{"data": {"info": 1, "data": {"info": 2}}}'
  _json_path_location(content, ['data','data','info'])
  -> ' (line 1, byte offset 30)'  # the inner first 'info', not the second

The synopsis instructed the model to 'Start near the line hints
above when present', so a wrong anchor would send read_file into
the wrong region of the persisted .tool-results file.

Drop the hint entirely. The path itself ('$.data.items') is
already useful navigation; the agent uses read_file with start_line
based on its own judgement of where the relevant slice is.

Tests:
- Update test_json_preview_reports_nested_paths to assert no 'line '
  or 'byte offset ' appears in the body before the Access section.
- Rename test_json_line_hints_use_original_content_offsets to
  test_json_paths_are_emitted_without_line_hints and invert the
  assertions to check the hints are absent.

* fix(synopsis): bound _scalar_examples recursion depth

Mirror the _JSON_STRUCTURE_DEPTH cap used by _json_container_paths
and _json_shape so that deeply nested JSON cannot trigger
RecursionError inside build_tool_output_synopsis.

In ToolOutputBudgetMiddleware.awrap_tool_call the synopsis is built
inside asyncio.to_thread(_patch_result, ...); a RecursionError
would surface as a tool-call failure and the user would lose the
entire output. 300-level nested JSON is well inside what an
attacker-controlled MCP tool, a JSON-RPC-over-JSON-RPC chain, or a
buggy serializer can produce.

* feat(synopsis): restore inline raw head/tail sample

The synopsis-only preview silently dropped the raw head/tail bytes
that preview_head_chars / preview_tail_chars used to inline. For
text/code/log outputs the agent lost first/last KB of the actual
content and had to issue a follow-up read_file round-trip to see
the trailing region (last paragraph of a fetched article, final
error line in a traceback, closing diagnostics of a bash run).

Restore an inline 'Raw sample (head + tail)' section in the preview.
The section is composed by slicing head_chars from the start and
tail_chars from the end of the content (with a '...' separator
between them, and the tail suppressed when it would overlap the
head). For binary-like output, the synopsis's own sample is reused
unchanged.

This makes preview_head_chars / preview_tail_chars operational
again for every kind except binary, which already had a sample
channel.

Tests:
- Rename test_json_preview_extracts_structure_instead_of_head_tail
  to test_json_preview_includes_structure_and_raw_sample and assert
  the raw sample section is present and the payload is reachable
  in the head slice.

* test(synopsis): add regression tests for willem-bd review findings

Add 8 regression tests under TestToolOutputSynopsis, one per
finding in @willem-bd's review of PR #3377:

- test_review_5_log_lines_are_not_misclassified_as_yaml
  Pins the YAML detector to refuse 'LEVEL: message' log lines.
- test_review_6_json_paths_are_emitted_without_byte_offset
  Pins the removal of byte/line hint from JSON path descriptions.
- test_review_7_scalar_examples_respects_depth_cap
  Pins that 500-deep nested JSON does not raise.
- test_review_8_csv_first_row_quoted_cells_round_trip
  Pins the new key=value list format for CSV first-row rendering
  and asserts that quoted cells with embedded delimiters survive.
- test_review_9_tsv_detector_rejects_tab_indented_bash
  Pins that tab-indented bash output is not classified as TSV.
- test_review_10_preview_includes_raw_head_and_tail_sample
  Pins the restored inline 'Raw sample (head + tail)' section.
- test_review_11_short_text_does_not_duplicate_excerpts
  Pins that closer is suppressed for inputs shorter than
  2 * _TEXT_EXCERPT_CHARS.
- test_review_12_preview_head_tail_chars_are_operational
  Pins that head_chars / tail_chars are wired into the rendered
  preview and not silently dropped.

Also removes the now-stale 'byte offsets are approximate anchors'
sentence from render_tool_output_preview's Access block; the
synopsis no longer emits byte/line hints, so the guidance to
'start near the line hints' was misleading.

* fix(synopsis): resolve lint errors on tool output budget tests

Local 'make lint' on feat/tool-output-synopsis-preview (after fast-forward
to current main) failed with three errors in tests added by PR #3377:

- E501: 307-char bash_out literal in test_review_9_tsv_detector_rejects_tab_indented_bash
- E741: ambiguous single-letter 'l' in test_review_11_short_text_does_not_duplicate_excerpts
- E741: same ambiguous 'l' on the closing assert

Replace the long literal with a join of per-row entries, rename the loop
variable from 'l' to 'ln', and run ruff format on the two touched files
to absorb the formatting drift introduced by the merge with main.

Verification:
- make lint   -> All checks passed; 643 files already formatted
- pytest tests/test_tool_output_budget_middleware.py -> 110 passed

* fix: address willem-bd review findings (code/csv misclassification, text duplication, line snapping, dead constant, xml hardening, depth consistency)

- _CODE_HINTS: require stronger signals for use/fn (trailing ; or parenthesised)
- _try_table: apply _TABLE_MIN_DATA_ROWS gate to CSV too (not just TSV)
- config.example.yaml: correct misleading comment about preview_head/tail_chars
- _summarize_text: skip opener/closer excerpts when raw sample will be appended
- _build_raw_sample: snap to line boundaries for clean truncation
- Remove dead constant _TABLE_FIRST_ROW_CHARS
- Prefer defusedxml for XML parsing (billion-laughs protection), fallback to stdlib
- Replace _json_shape magic number 2 with named _JSON_SHAPE_MAX_DEPTH constant
- Update tests to match new CSV gate (>=5 rows) and line-snapped sample counts

* style: ruff format fix for tool_output_synopsis.py and test_tool_output_budget_middleware.py

* fix(tool-output): address 4 review comments - DoS hardening + size cap

1. XML entity-expansion DoS: skip _try_xml when defusedxml is not
   available (SafeET is None), falling through to text + raw sample.
   (cid=3587721336)

2. YAML alias-bomb DoS: refuse to parse YAML content > 500 KB.
   (cid=3587721340)

3. Unbounded content parse: add _MAX_SYNOPSIS_INPUT_BYTES=5MB cap;
   oversized output falls back to raw head/tail sample instead of full
   parse. (cid=3587721346)

4. Scalar examples surface mid-document values: add docstring note
   that the synopsis is a structural summary, not a confidentiality
   filter. (cid=3587721353)

* fix(tool-output): ruff format the synopsis string to one line

# Configuration for the DeerFlow application
#
# Guidelines:
# - Copy this file to `config.yaml` and customize it for your environment
# - The default path of this configuration file is `config.yaml` in the project root.
# You can set `DEER_FLOW_PROJECT_ROOT` to define that root explicitly, or use
# `DEER_FLOW_CONFIG_PATH` to point at a specific config file.
# - Runtime state defaults to `.deer-flow` under the project root. Override it
# with `DEER_FLOW_HOME` when you need a different writable data directory.
# - Environment variables are available for all field values. Example: `api_key: $OPENAI_API_KEY`
# - The `use` path is a string that looks like "package_name.sub_package_name.module_name:class_name/variable_name".

# - use: deerflow.agents.middlewares.safety_termination_detectors:OpenAICompatibleContentFilterDetector
# config:
# finish_reasons: ["content_filter", "sensitive", "risk_control"]
# - use: deerflow.agents.middlewares.safety_termination_detectors:AnthropicRefusalDetector
# - use: deerflow.agents.middlewares.safety_termination_detectors:GeminiSafetyDetector

# ============================================================================
# Sandbox Configuration
# ============================================================================
# Choose between local sandbox (direct execution) or Docker-based AIO sandbox
# Option 1: Local Sandbox (Default)
# Executes commands directly on the host machine
uploads:
# Application-level upload limits enforced by the gateway and exposed to the
# frontend before file selection.
max_files: 10
max_file_size: 52428800 # 50 MiB
max_total_size: 104857600 # 100 MiB
# Automatic Office/PDF conversion runs on the backend host before sandbox
# isolation applies. Keep this disabled unless uploads come from a fully
# trusted source and you intentionally accept host-side parser risk.
auto_convert_documents: false
# Controls which PDF-to-Markdown converter is used whenever PDF conversion
# runs. Automatic upload conversion is gated separately by
# auto_convert_documents.
# auto — prefer pymupdf4llm when installed; fall back to MarkItDown for
# image-based or encrypted PDFs (recommended default).
# pymupdf4llm — always use pymupdf4llm (must be installed: uv add pymupdf4llm).
# Better heading/table extraction; faster on most files.
# markitdown — always use MarkItDown (original behaviour, no extra dependency).
pdf_converter: auto
sandbox:
use: deerflow.sandbox.local:LocalSandboxProvider
# Host bash execution is disabled by default because LocalSandboxProvider is
# not a secure isolation boundary for shell access. Enable only for fully
# trusted, single-user local workflows.
allow_host_bash: false
# Optional: Mount additional host directories into the sandbox.
# Each mount maps a host path to a virtual container path accessible by the agent.
# Note: with LocalSandboxProvider under `make up` (docker-compose), host_path is
# checked from inside the deer-flow-gateway container — you must also bind-mount
# the same directory into services.gateway.volumes in docker/docker-compose.yaml
# for this mount to take effect (see issue #3244).
# mounts:
# - host_path: /home/user/my-project # Absolute path; see note above for Docker mode
# container_path: /mnt/my-project # Virtual path inside the sandbox
# read_only: true # Whether the mount is read-only (default: false)
# Tool output truncation limits (characters).
# bash uses middle-truncation (head + tail) since errors can appear anywhere in the output.
# read_file and ls use head-truncation since their content is front-loaded.
# Set to 0 to disable truncation.
bash_output_max_chars: 20000
read_file_output_max_chars: 50000
ls_output_max_chars: 20000
# Maximum wall-clock seconds a single host bash command may run before it is
# terminated (process group and all). A blocking foreground command — e.g. a
# server started without backgrounding — is killed after this long so the
# agent's turn cannot hang. Start long-lived processes in the background with
# output redirected (e.g. `your-command > /tmp/server.log 2>&1 &`) when you
# need logs; unredirected background output is drained with bounded capture
# and excess output is discarded.
bash_command_timeout: 600
# Option 2: Container-based AIO Sandbox
# Executes commands in isolated containers (Docker or Apple Container)
# On macOS: Automatically prefers Apple Container if available, falls back to Docker
# On other platforms: Uses Docker
# Uncomment to use:
# sandbox:
# use: deerflow.community.aio_sandbox:AioSandboxProvider
#
# # Optional: Container image to use (works with both Docker and Apple Container)
# # Default: enterprise-public-cn-beijing.cr.volces.com/vefaas-public/all-in-one-sandbox:latest
# # The mirror's `:latest` tag is frozen on an old pre-1.9.3 digest that lacks
# # the /v1/bash/* routes required-secrets skills need (see #3921/#3922), so
# # pin an explicit version instead — recommended: 1.11.0 (multi-arch, works
# # on both x86_64 and arm64). Custom images should extend the default image
# # or implement the same AIO sandbox HTTP API used by agent-sandbox. See
# # backend/docs/CONFIGURATION.md.
# # image: enterprise-public-cn-beijing.cr.volces.com/vefaas-public/all-in-one-sandbox:1.11.0
#
# # Optional: Base port for sandbox containers (default: 8080)
# # port: 8080
# # Optional: Maximum number of concurrent sandbox containers (default: 3)
# # When the limit is reached the least-recently-used sandbox is evicted to
# # make room for new ones. Use a positive integer here; omit this field to use the default.
# # replicas: 3
#
# # Optional: Prefix for container names (default: deer-flow-sandbox)
# # container_prefix: deer-flow-sandbox
#
# # Optional: Additional mount directories from host to container
# # NOTE: Skills directory is automatically mounted from skills.path to skills.container_path
# # mounts:
# # # Other custom mounts
# # - host_path: /path/on/host
# # container_path: /home/user/shared
# # read_only: false
# #
# # # DeerFlow will surface configured container_path values to the agent,
# # # so it can directly read/write mounted directories such as /home/user/shared
#
# # Optional: Environment variables to inject into the sandbox container
# # Values starting with $ will be resolved from host environment variables
# # environment:
# # NODE_ENV: production
# # DEBUG: "false"
# # API_KEY: $MY_API_KEY # Reads from host's MY_API_KEY env var
# # DATABASE_URL: $DATABASE_URL # Reads from host's DATABASE_URL env var
# Option 3: BoxLite micro-VM Sandbox
# Runs each sandbox as a BoxLite micro-VM. Released boxes stay in an in-process
# warm pool and can be reclaimed by the same user/thread without a cold start.
# Requires the boxlite runtime and host virtualization support (KVM on Linux,
# Hypervisor.framework on macOS).
# sandbox:
# use: deerflow.community.boxlite:BoxliteProvider
# image: python:3.12-slim
#
# # Optional: Per-box memory and CPU limits.
# # memory_mib: 1024
# # cpus: 2
#
# # Optional: Maximum active + warm BoxLite VMs per gateway process (default: 3).
# # Active boxes are never evicted; only warm-pool boxes are stopped to make room.
# # replicas: 3
#
# # Optional: Seconds before an idle warm-pool VM is stopped (default: 600).
# # Set to 0 to keep warm VMs until shutdown or replica eviction.
# # idle_timeout: 600
#
# # Optional: Skip the reclaim health check for very recently released VMs.
# # Default 0.0 keeps reliability-first validation before warm reuse.
# # health_check_skip_seconds: 0.0
#
# # Optional: Environment variables to inject into every command.
# # environment:
# # PYTHONUNBUFFERED: "1"
#
# Option 4: Provisioner-managed AIO Sandbox (docker-compose-dev)
# Each sandbox_id gets a dedicated Pod in k3s, managed by the provisioner.
# Recommended for production or advanced users who want better isolation and scalability.:
# sandbox:
# use: deerflow.community.aio_sandbox:AioSandboxProvider
# provisioner_url: http://provisioner:8002
# # API key for provisioner authentication. Must match PROVISIONER_API_KEY
# # set on the provisioner container. Both sides must have the same value set;
# # the provisioner rejects all /api/* requests when PROVISIONER_API_KEY is unset.
# # Generate a strong key: openssl rand -hex 32
# # provisioner_api_key: $PROVISIONER_API_KEY
# # Note: provisioner-created Pods use the provisioner's SANDBOX_IMAGE
# # environment variable, not sandbox.image from this config file.
# ============================================================================
# Subagents Configuration
# ============================================================================
# Configure timeouts for subagent execution
# Subagents are background workers delegated tasks by the lead agent
# subagents:
# # Default timeout (seconds) for built-in subagents (default: 1800 = 30 min).
# # Custom agents use their own timeout_seconds (default 900) unless overridden.
# timeout_seconds: 1800
# # Optional global max-turn override for all subagents.
# # Built-in defaults: general-purpose=150, bash=60. Leave unset to keep them.
# # max_turns: 120
#
# # Total number of subagent delegations allowed in one lead-agent run.
# # This is a deterministic backstop against repeated planning checkpoints
# # launching legal-sized batches forever. The default 6 allows two full
# # batches at the default concurrency of 3. Valid config range: 1-50.
# # Per-request runtime context can temporarily override this with
# # `max_total_subagents`, clamped to the same 1-50 range.
# max_total_per_run: 6
#
# # Per-run token ceiling for subagents (#3875 Phase 2). A backstop against a
# # subagent that burns tokens on trivial work. At the hard-stop threshold the
# # in-flight turn is capped (tool calls stripped, finish_reason forced to
# # "stop") so the run completes naturally with a final answer; the result is
# # stamped `completed` + `subagent_stop_reason=token_capped` so the lead and
# # UI can tell a budget-capped completion from a clean one. The 2,000,000
# # default is a generous ceiling — lower it to tighten cost controls. A
# # per-agent `token_budget` override (see `agents:` below) wins over this.

#
# If both `checkpointer` and `database` are present, `checkpointer`
# takes precedence for the LangGraph checkpointer and Store only.

# Database
# ============================================================================
# Unified storage backend for the LangGraph checkpointer, LangGraph Store,
# and DeerFlow application data (runs, threads metadata, feedback, etc.).
#
# backend: memory -- No persistence, data lost on restart
# backend: sqlite -- Single-node deployment, files in sqlite_dir
# backend: postgres -- Production multi-node deployment
#
# If this section is omitted or empty in config.yaml, DeerFlow uses:
# backend: sqlite
# sqlite_dir: .deer-flow/data
#
# SQLite mode uses a single deerflow.db file with WAL journal mode
# for the checkpointer, Store, and application data.
#
# Postgres mode: put your connection URL in .env as DATABASE_URL,
# then reference it here with $DATABASE_URL.
#
# Install the driver — Issue #2754 fix lands `UV_EXTRAS` in every code path:
# Local `make dev` auto-detects from `database.backend: postgres` below
# and passes `--extra postgres` to `uv sync` on every restart, so
# the extra is no longer wiped. To opt in explicitly (or layer
# extras like `postgres,ollama`), set in project-root .env:
# UV_EXTRAS=postgres
# Docker dev `make docker-start` reads `UV_EXTRAS` from project-root .env via
# `env_file`. Set:
# UV_EXTRAS=postgres
# Multiple extras (`postgres,ollama`) supported here too — see
# docker/dev-entrypoint.sh.
# Docker img build-arg `UV_EXTRAS=postgres,discord docker compose build`
# supports comma- or whitespace-separated extras at build time
# (backend/Dockerfile expands them to repeated `--extra` flags).
#
# First-time bootstrap (before `make dev`):
# cd backend && uv sync --all-packages --extra postgres
# (--all-packages propagates the extra into workspace members — see PR #2584)
#
# NOTE: When both `checkpointer` and `database` are configured,

# ignores row-level locks, so multiple workers can double-fire the same task.
# For multi-worker deployments (GATEWAY_WORKERS > 1), use the Postgres database
# backend, where FOR UPDATE SKIP LOCKED serializes claims correctly.

# ============================================================================
# Run Ownership Configuration
# ============================================================================
# Controls cross-process run ownership for multi-worker deployments.
# When GATEWAY_WORKERS > 1, each worker claims runs with a lease; the heartbeat
# renews leases, and reconciliation recovers orphaned runs from crashed workers.
#
# CLOCK-SYNC REQUIREMENT (multi-worker only): reconciliation compares another
# worker's UTC lease timestamp against this worker's datetime.now(UTC). Worker
# clocks MUST be synced (NTP / chrony / systemd-timesyncd — default on K8s and
# cloud VMs) within a few seconds. grace_seconds is the skew budget; worst case
# (owning worker's heartbeat just about to fire), a peer whose clock is more
# than grace_seconds ahead can mis-reclaim a still-live run as an orphan. Raise
# grace_seconds if your environment cannot keep clocks within a few seconds;
# the trade-off is longer recovery latency for genuinely dead workers
# (lease_seconds + grace_seconds from last heartbeat to reclaim).
run_ownership:
lease_seconds: 30 # Seconds before a run lease expires if not renewed.
# Heartbeat renews every lease_seconds / 3.
grace_seconds: 10 # Extra seconds past expiry before reclaiming an orphaned run.
# Also the cross-worker clock-skew budget — see note above.
heartbeat_enabled: false # Set to true for GATEWAY_WORKERS > 1
# ============================================================================
# Stream Bridge Configuration
# ============================================================================
# The stream bridge carries live agent events from gateway workers to SSE
# clients. Docker Compose sets DEER_FLOW_STREAM_BRIDGE_REDIS_URL automatically,
# so Docker deployments use Redis Streams even if this section is omitted.
#
# The redis bridge requires the optional `redis` extra. It is auto-detected from
# this section on `make dev`, and always installed in the Docker image. To install
# it manually: cd backend && uv sync --all-packages --extra redis
#
# stream_bridge:
# type: memory # single-process only
# queue_maxsize: 256
#
# stream_bridge:
# type: redis # recommended for Docker / multi-worker gateway
# redis_url: redis://redis:6379/0
# queue_maxsize: 256 # events retained per run (redis stream MAXLEN)
# stream_ttl_seconds: 86400 # rolling TTL for retained stream buffers.
# # Refreshed on each publish/publish_end; set 0
# # to disable. This is not a run timeout.
# recovered_stream_cleanup_delay_seconds: 60 # seconds to wait after
# # publishing END for a recovered orphan run
# # before deleting the stream key.
# max_connections: 100 # optional pool ceiling. Each live SSE client
# # holds one connection blocked in XREAD ... BLOCK
# # for up to heartbeat_interval (15s), so hundreds
# # of concurrent clients open hundreds of
# # connections. Unset = redis-py default (unbounded).
#
# NOTE: the redis bridge is fail-hard in v1. Redis.from_url is lazy, so a down
# Redis does not block gateway startup, but the first publish/xread raises. A
# mid-run Redis outage fails the active run — there is no automatic retry/backoff
# or fallback to the in-memory bridge. Run Redis with HA / a restart policy.

# User-Owned IM Channel Connections
# ============================================================================
# Lets logged-in users connect their own IM accounts from the DeerFlow frontend
# while reusing the existing `channels` runtime configuration below.
#
# Security notes:
# - No public IP, OAuth callback URL, or provider webhook is required.
# - Provider bot/app credentials stay under `channels.*`.
# - `channel_connections` stores per-user bindings and one-time connect codes.
# - Telegram uses a deep link when `bot_username` is configured.
# - Slack, Discord, Feishu, DingTalk, WeChat, and WeCom use `/connect <code>`
# through the already-running bot/app.
#
# channel_connections:
# enabled: false
# # Security: keep this enabled unless you intentionally want legacy open-bot behavior.
# # Disabling it lets unbound external IM users create DeerFlow threads/runs.

# ============================================================================
# IM Channels Configuration
# ============================================================================
# Connect DeerFlow to external messaging platforms.
# All channels use outbound connections (WebSocket or polling) — no public IP required.
# channels:
# # LangGraph-compatible Gateway API base URL for thread/message management (default: http://localhost:8001/api)
# # For Docker deployments, use the Docker service name instead of localhost:
# # langgraph_url: http://gateway:8001/api
# # gateway_url: http://gateway:8001
# langgraph_url: http://localhost:8001/api
# # Gateway API URL for auxiliary queries like /models, /memory (default: http://localhost:8001)
# gateway_url: http://localhost:8001
# #
# # Docker Compose note:
# # If channels run inside the gateway container, use container DNS names instead
# # of localhost, for example:
# # langgraph_url: http://gateway:8001/api
# # gateway_url: http://gateway:8001
# # You can also set DEER_FLOW_CHANNELS_LANGGRAPH_URL / DEER_FLOW_CHANNELS_GATEWAY_URL.

# ============================================================================
# Guardrails Configuration
# ============================================================================
# Optional pre-execution authorization for tool calls.
# When enabled, every tool call passes through the configured provider
# before execution. Three options: built-in allowlist, OAP policy provider,
# or custom provider. See backend/docs/GUARDRAILS.md for full documentation.
#
# Providers are loaded by class path via resolve_variable (same as models/tools).
# --- Option 1: Built-in AllowlistProvider (zero external deps) ---
# guardrails:
# enabled: true
# provider:
# use: deerflow.guardrails.builtin:AllowlistProvider
# config:
# denied_tools: ["bash", "write_file"]
# --- Option 2: OAP passport provider (open standard, any implementation) ---
# The Open Agent Passport (OAP) spec defines passport format and decision codes.
# Any OAP-compliant provider works. Example using APort (reference implementation):
# pip install aport-agent-guardrails && aport setup --framework deerflow
# guardrails:
# enabled: true
# provider:
# use: aport_guardrails.providers.generic:OAPGuardrailProvider
# --- Option 3: Custom provider (any class with evaluate/aevaluate methods) ---
# guardrails:
# enabled: true
# provider:
# use: my_package:MyGuardrailProvider
# config:
# key: value
# ============================================================================
# Authorization Configuration
# ============================================================================
# Fine-grained resource authorization (RBAC and beyond). Disabled by default;
# every authenticated user has access to all resources. Schema is present but
# inert; the built-in RBAC provider and runtime wiring arrive in subsequent phases.
# See RFC: https://github.com/bytedance/deer-flow/issues/4063
authorization:
enabled: false
# ============================================================================
# Circuit Breaker Configuration
# ============================================================================
# Circuit breaker for LLM calls prevents repeated requests to a failing provider.
# When the failure threshold is reached, subsequent calls fast-fail until recovery.
#
# This is useful for:
# - Avoiding rate-limit bans during provider outages
# - Reducing resource exhaustion from retry loops
# - Gracefully degrading when LLM services are unavailable
# circuit_breaker:
# # Number of consecutive failures before opening the circuit (default: 5)
# failure_threshold: 5
# # Time in seconds before attempting to recover (default: 60)
# recovery_timeout_sec: 60
# ============================================================================
# SSO / OIDC Authentication (optional)
# ============================================================================
# Enable SSO login via any OIDC-compatible provider (Keycloak, Google, Azure AD, Okta, etc.).
# When enabled, the login page will show SSO buttons alongside the standard email/password form.
#
# Provider configuration:
# - issuer: The OIDC issuer URL (e.g. https://keycloak.example.com/realms/deerflow)
# - client_id: OAuth2 client ID from the provider
# - client_secret: OAuth2 client secret ($ENV_VAR references supported)
# - redirect_uri: Callback URL. In production, this must match what you configure in
# the provider. Defaults to a self-derived URL in development.
#
# Keycloak setup:
# 1. Create a client with type "confidential" and Standard Flow enabled
# 2. Add Valid Redirect URI: http://localhost:8001/api/v1/auth/callback/keycloak
# 3. Add Web Origin: http://localhost:8001 (or your frontend origin)
# auth:
# oidc:
# enabled: true
# # Base URL of the frontend, used for redirects after SSO callback.
# # In production behind a reverse proxy, set this to the public frontend URL
# # (e.g. https://deerflow.example.com). In development, leave unset.
# # frontend_base_url: http://localhost:3000
# providers:
# keycloak:
# display_name: Keycloak
# issuer: https://keycloak.example.com/realms/deerflow
# client_id: deerflow
# client_secret: $KEYCLOAK_CLIENT_SECRET
# # Optional: explicitly set the callback URL.
# # redirect_uri: https://deerflow.example.com/api/v1/auth/callback/keycloak
# scopes:
# - openid
# - email
# - profile
# token_endpoint_auth_method: client_secret_post
#
# # User provisioning settings (safe defaults shown below):
# auto_create_users: true # Auto-create DeerFlow account on first SSO login
# require_verified_email: true # Reject SSO logins without verified email
# # allowed_email_domains: # Restrict to specific email domains
# # - example.com
# admin_emails: [] # Auto-grant admin role to these emails
#
# # Security features (enabled by default):
# pkce_enabled: true # PKCE (S256) for authorization code flow
# nonce_enabled: true # Nonce validation in ID tokens
