Bug Report: Missing Validation — Session.append_message allows TOOL role without tool_call_id

Severity Assessment

  • Impact: Session.append_message() does not enforce that tool_call_id is provided when role=MessageRole.TOOL, even though SessionMessage has a model validator that enforces this. The issue is that append_message creates SessionMessage with tool_call_id=None by default when called with role=MessageRole.TOOL and no tool_call_id argument — but wait, the SessionMessage model validator WILL catch this and raise ValueError. However, the SessionService abstract interface's append_message method signature does NOT include tool_call_id as a parameter at all.
  • Likelihood: High — any code using SessionService.append_message to add a TOOL message will fail or silently skip the validation because the interface does not support tool_call_id.
  • Priority: High

Location

  • File: src/cleveragents/domain/models/core/session.py
  • Class: SessionService
  • Method: append_message (abstract)
  • Lines: ~430-460

Description

SessionMessage correctly enforces that tool_call_id is required when role == MessageRole.TOOL via a model validator. However, the SessionService.append_message abstract method signature is:

@abstractmethod
def append_message(
    self,
    session_id: str,
    role: MessageRole,
    content: str,
    metadata: dict[str, Any] | None = None,
    # NO tool_call_id parameter!
) -> SessionMessage:

This means:

  1. Any implementation of SessionService.append_message that follows this signature cannot pass tool_call_id to the Session.append_message method.
  2. If Session.append_message is called through the service with role=MessageRole.TOOL, it will create a SessionMessage with tool_call_id=None, which will raise a ValueError from the model validator.
  3. Alternatively, if implementations work around this by directly constructing SessionMessage with tool_call_id, they are violating the LSP since the interface doesn't define this contract.

Evidence

# From session.py - SessionMessage model validator:
@model_validator(mode="after")
def _validate_tool_call_id(self) -> SessionMessage:
    if self.role == MessageRole.TOOL and not self.tool_call_id:
        raise ValueError("tool_call_id is required when message role is 'tool'")
    return self

# From session.py - SessionService interface (MISSING tool_call_id):
@abstractmethod
def append_message(
    self,
    session_id: str,
    role: MessageRole,
    content: str,
    metadata: dict[str, Any] | None = None,
    # tool_call_id is NOT in the signature!
) -> SessionMessage:
    ...

# From session.py - Session.append_message (HAS tool_call_id but service doesn't):
def append_message(
    self,
    role: MessageRole,
    content: str,
    metadata: dict[str, Any] | None = None,
    tool_call_id: str | None = None,  # Present here but not in service!
) -> SessionMessage:

The Session.append_message domain method correctly accepts tool_call_id, but the SessionService.append_message abstract interface is missing it. Any service implementation following the abstract interface cannot create valid TOOL role messages.

Expected Behavior

SessionService.append_message should include tool_call_id: str | None = None in its signature to support the full contract required by SessionMessage validation.

Actual Behavior

The SessionService abstract interface is incomplete — tool_call_id is missing from the service method signature, making it impossible to create valid TOOL role messages through the service layer without violating the interface contract.

Suggested Fix

@abstractmethod
def append_message(
    self,
    session_id: str,
    role: MessageRole,
    content: str,
    metadata: dict[str, Any] | None = None,
    tool_call_id: str | None = None,  # Add this
) -> SessionMessage:
    ...
