Research direction
Start by examining the lib/src/openai/stream.ts entry points parseCallArguments, extractToolCalls, and convertToAPIJsonData named in the stack trace. Reproduce a conversation request that invokes the create_file tool and trace how its arguments are handled; done means the reported malformed tool-call case is handled without the conversation request error.
