"""Stateful scrubber for reasoning/thinking blocks in streamed assistant text.
``run_agent._strip_think_blocks`` is regex-based and correct for a complete
string, but when it runs *per-delta* in ``_fire_stream_delta`` it destroys
the state that downstream consumers (CLI ``_stream_delta``, gateway
``GatewayStreamConsumer._filter_and_accumulate``) rely on.
Concretely, when MiniMax-M2.7 streams
delta1 = ""
delta2 = "Let me check their config"
delta3 = ""
the per-delta regex erases delta1 entirely (case 2: unterminated-open at
boundary matches ``^...``), so the downstream state machine never
sees the open tag, treats delta2 as regular content, and leaks reasoning
to the user. Consumers that don't run their own state machine (ACP,
api_server, TTS) never had any defence at all — they just emitted
whatever survived the upstream regex.
This module centralises the tag-suppression state machine at the
upstream layer so every stream_delta_callback sees text that has
already had reasoning blocks removed. Partial tags at delta
boundaries are held back until the next delta resolves them, and
end-of-stream flushing surfaces any held-back prose that turned out
not to be a real tag.
Usage::
scrubber = StreamingThinkScrubber()
for delta in stream:
visible = scrubber.feed(delta)
if visible:
emit(visible)
tail = scrubber.flush() # at end of stream
if tail:
emit(tail)
The scrubber is re-entrant per agent instance. Call ``reset()`` at
the top of each new turn so a hung block from an interrupted prior
stream cannot taint the next turn's output.
Tag variants handled (case-insensitive):
````, ````, ````, ````,
````.
Block-boundary rule for opens: an opening tag is only treated as a
reasoning-block opener when it appears at the start of the stream,
after a newline (optionally followed by whitespace), or when only
whitespace has been emitted on the current line. This prevents prose
that *mentions* the tag name (e.g. ``"use tags here"``) from
being incorrectly suppressed. Closed pairs (``X``) are
always suppressed regardless of boundary; a closed pair is an
intentional, bounded construct.
