Basically, try send a base64 image (say from MCP) in ToolMessage you will easily get 900k token usage, which a lot of the user would assume it will just work if they transfermed from anthropic
This is a fix where the model behaves relatively good by faking role: function into a user but with tags
I made a similar fix to langchain-aws , where the model will simply skip translation if it is a ToolMessage, here everything is to_str() and image is easily 900k token usage langchain-ai/langchain-aws#495
As confimed by someone worked in Google:
end quote.
The google data structure is a pain to use and work with compared to other providers, It will be too much work to write a test, as I will use this to patch our code base anyways, I will submit the PR here
