WalkthroughThe change adds format-qualified reasoning provenance and raw data, normalizes reasoning effort across codecs, preserves qualified Anthropic thinking for replay, filters unsafe cross-format reasoning, and updates related fixtures and tests. ChangesReasoning translation

Anthropic stream decoding stores signatures in
anthropic.signature_deltareasoning details.ResponseAccumulator::finishpreserves those details but setssignatureandprovenancetoNone. Anthropic replay then does not meet its qualified signed-thinking branch, andencode_one_anthropic_blockemits no block. The signed reasoning is therefore silently lost, including underReject; it does not produce the claimedRejecterror.Carry the signature and Anthropic provenance through
LlmResponseChunkandResponseAccumulator, and add an aggregation-to-replay test. If aggregated redacted thinking must also be supported, normalize its stream block into a preserved reasoning detail before aggregation.🤖 Prompt for AI Agents

Filter the redacted-thinking marker as well.
The filter removes only anthropic.signed_thinking. Anthropic request decoding also synthesizes {"type": "anthropic.redacted_thinking", "data": ...} (see crates/switchyard-translation/src/codecs/anthropic/buffered.rs lines 711-719). For an Anthropic request that contains a redacted_thinking block, this function keeps that detail, so encode_openai_message_reasoning writes the internal marker and the opaque Anthropic payload into message["reasoning_details"] of the OpenAI Chat request.
Two consequences follow. Private Anthropic metadata crosses the format boundary that this PR restricts. A strict Chat upstream can also reject the unknown detail type.
The existing test does not detect this. json_contains_content_type(&output, "redacted_thinking") matches only the exact type string, and the emitted type is anthropic.redacted_thinking.

I have an open PR against the same leak, #792, so I would rather flag the overlap than leave two PRs sitting on the same file. Measured today, same input through

I do not think both should land as they stand. Reproduction for either: check out |

What
Why
Caller-controlled Chat fields must not grant access to provider-private reasoning transport. This keeps opaque reasoning boundaries explicit while retaining supported round trips.
