Summary

Follow-up to #713. That PR made Responses tool-result files reach the Anthropic document encoder, which exposed a pre-existing bug in how FileSource::FileData is encoded.

Before: an OpenAI file_data value (Chat file.file_data or Responses input_file.file_data) became

{"type": "document", "source": {"type": "base64", "data": "data:application/pdf;base64,JVBERi0xLjcK", "filename": "report.pdf"}}

Anthropic rejects this: media_type is required, data must be raw base64 without the data-URI prefix, and filename is not a source field.

After:

{"type": "document", "title": "report.pdf", "source": {"type": "base64", "media_type": "application/pdf", "data": "JVBERi0xLjcK"}}
  • A data URI is split with the existing split_base64_data_uri helper, which supplies media_type and the bare payload.
  • A bare base64 payload defaults to application/pdf, or text/plain when the file name ends in .txt or .md.
  • The file name moves to the block-level title.

Verification

  • cargo fmt --all --check, cargo clippy --workspace --all-targets -- -D warnings, cargo test --workspace all green.
  • The Responses→Anthropic tool-result media test now feeds a data-URI file_data and asserts the valid document shape above.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Bug Fixes
    • Improved cross-format tool-result translation for typed text, image, and file content.
    • OpenAI file data is now converted into compatible Anthropic documents with preserved content, media type, and filename information.
    • PDF, plain-text, and Markdown files now receive appropriate media types during translation.
    • Plain-text tool results remain unchanged.

Walkthrough

The change updates Anthropic document encoding for OpenAI file_data. It strips data-URI prefixes, infers media types, preserves filenames as document titles, and updates translation coverage and changelog text.

Changes

Document translation

Layer / File(s) Summary
Anthropic document encoding
crates/switchyard-translation/src/codecs/anthropic/buffered.rs
FileSource::FileData now emits raw base64, an inferred media type, and an optional document title. .txt and .md filenames use text/plain; other filenames use application/pdf.
Translation validation and changelog
crates/switchyard-translation/tests/request_translation.rs, CHANGELOG.md
Tests now use a PDF data URI and expect the media type and document title. The changelog documents the conversion behavior.

Priority: ⬇️ Low

Estimated code review effort: 2 (Simple) | ~10 minutes

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to 01e64

Text and other non-PDF file results can be encoded into requests Anthropic rejects, so media-type validation or conversion should be fixed before merging.

document source. Permit application/pdf for source.type "base64"; reject
unsupported types or route text/plain through Anthropic’s source.type "text"
