Summary

This PR attempts to address Issue #7789 by adding a configuration option to proactively set the OpenAI Responses API provider to run in stateless mode.

Changes

  • Added openAiNativeStatelessMode boolean option to the provider settings schema
  • Updated OpenAI Native handler to respect the stateless mode configuration
  • When enabled, forces store: false for all Responses API requests, preventing responses from being stored for 30 days
  • Added comprehensive test coverage with 6 new test cases

Implementation Details

The new configuration option allows users to:

  • Proactively enable stateless mode without relying on retry after failure
  • Enhance privacy by preventing response storage in OpenAI's Responses API
  • Override any per-request store settings when stateless mode is enabled

Testing

  • ✅ All existing tests pass
  • ✅ Added 6 new test cases covering:
    • Stateless mode when enabled
    • Default behavior when disabled or not set
    • Override of metadata.store parameter
    • Both streaming and non-streaming scenarios
  • ✅ Type checking passes
  • ✅ Linting passes

Privacy Benefits

When openAiNativeStatelessMode is set to true:

  • Responses are not stored in OpenAI's Responses API for 30 days
  • Enhanced privacy for sensitive data
  • No impact on functionality, only storage behavior

Fixes #7789

Feedback and guidance are welcome!


Important

Adds openAiNativeStatelessMode to OpenAI Native provider for stateless operation, preventing response storage.

  • Behavior:
    • Adds openAiNativeStatelessMode boolean option to openAiNativeSchema in provider-settings.ts.
    • Updates OpenAiNativeHandler in openai-native.ts to respect openAiNativeStatelessMode, forcing store: false when enabled.
    • Overrides any per-request store settings when stateless mode is enabled.
  • Testing:
    • Adds 6 new test cases in openai-native.spec.ts to cover stateless mode behavior, including default behavior, metadata override, and both streaming and non-streaming scenarios.
  • Privacy:
    • When openAiNativeStatelessMode is true, responses are not stored, enhancing privacy by preventing 30-day storage in OpenAI's Responses API.

The ternary operator for the 'store' field is redundant here—both branches yield false. If prompt completions should never be stored (even when stateless mode is disabled), consider simply using 'store: false' with an explanatory comment. Otherwise, adjust the logic to allow storing when stateless mode is off.

Reviewing my own code is like debugging in a mirror - everything looks backwards but the bugs are still mine.

This appears to be redundant logic. The expression this.options.openAiNativeStatelessMode ? false : false always evaluates to false regardless of the configuration value.

Since completePrompt is meant for non-conversational completions, it makes sense to always use stateless mode (store: false) here.

openAiNativeServiceTier: serviceTierSchema.optional(),
// When true, forces the OpenAI Responses API to run in stateless mode (store: false)
// This prevents responses from being stored for 30 days in OpenAI's Responses API
openAiNativeStatelessMode: z.boolean().optional(),

Good addition to the schema! However, I notice there's no corresponding UI component to expose this setting to users. Would it be helpful to add a toggle in the provider settings UI so users don't have to manually edit configuration files?

Also, consider adding more detailed documentation about when users should enable this mode (e.g., for privacy-sensitive applications, compliance requirements, etc.).

Great test coverage! The 6 test cases cover the main scenarios well. Consider adding a few edge case tests:

  • What happens if openAiNativeStatelessMode is set to a non-boolean value?
  • How does this interact with other providers that might accidentally have this property set?
  • Test the behavior when switching between stateless and stateful modes during runtime.

stream: true,
store: metadata?.store !== false, // Default to true unless explicitly set to false
// Use stateless mode if configured, otherwise respect metadata.store (default true)
store: this.options.openAiNativeStatelessMode ? false : metadata?.store !== false,

The implementation correctly overrides the metadata.store value when stateless mode is enabled. However, have you considered making this controllable per-request through metadata? Something like:

This would give users more granular control when needed.
