raw ID and allocate a unique candidate rather than reusing it; retain mappings
across repeated calls. Add regressions covering an invalid ID versus its
conforming normalized output and two raw IDs producing the same hash candidate.

…lays
Anthropic validates `tool_use.id` against `[a-zA-Z0-9_-]`. The Anthropic
adapter forwarded ids verbatim, so a transcript carrying ids minted by a
different provider path failed the whole request with a 400 — and since the
bad id stays in the history, every subsequent Anthropic request in that
session fails too, until the user discards the conversation.
The reported ids concatenate a Responses-style call id and item id with a
literal newline, which alone is enough to fail validation:
call_5sNzuhhhfcuN91ysezpcwXjp\nfc_0c71abbccafaad67016a803ba3007487...
google.ts already solved this for the Antigravity path, where the backend
translates Gemini requests into Anthropic messages. Rather than copy the
logic, this lifts it into src/adapters/tool-call-id.ts and points both
adapters at it — one transform is easier to keep correct than two that can
drift.
Applied to both sides of the pair in anthropic.ts: the `tool_use.id` and the
matching `tool_result.tool_use_id`. The transform is deterministic, so ids
that were equal at the source stay equal after normalization and the pairing
survives. The synthetic "missing tool_result" filler reuses the already
normalized ids collected in toolUseIds, so it needs no change.
Conforming ids are returned unchanged, so ids minted by Anthropic itself
round-trip untouched and existing behaviour is unaffected.

Three defects, all reachable from the same history replay:
The raw-id fallback restored values the helper had deliberately refused.
`anthropicToolCallId("")` returns undefined precisely because an empty id is
not usable, and `?? rawId` put it back on the wire. An unrepresentable call now
becomes text and its result follows it there.
Result matching compared domains. `requiredIds` held normalized ids while the
result scan tested the raw `toolCallId`, so every rewritten pair lost its real
result to orphan text AND gained a synthetic missing-result block -- worse than
the bug it was meant to repair. Matching is now on the wire id, via a lookup
that never mints one, so a result with no call still stays orphan.
The transform was not injective despite saying it was. `call:a` maps to
`call_a_<hash>`, and a raw id already equal to that value conforms and passes
through unchanged: two sources, one wire id. Ordinary 32-bit hash collisions had
the same effect. Ids are now allocated by a request-scoped allocator that
reserves conforming ids first and appends a numeric suffix when a candidate is
taken.
Also adds the length bound the issue named. `isConformingToolCallId` now
includes it, so a character-valid but over-long id is rewritten rather than
reserved verbatim, and candidates are assembled as `prefix_hash` with the prefix
truncated -- slicing the finished string would have removed the discriminator.
Collision suffixes reserve their own space.
`src/adapters/google.ts` shares the allocator rather than aliasing the stateless
helper, which would have kept the collision defect there.
Regressions in tests/adapter-usage.test.ts drive the real buildRequest path:
rewritten pair stays paired, empty id never reaches the wire, rewritten id does
not collide with a conforming id equal to its normalized form, result-only id
mints nothing, over-length id is rewritten to fit, conforming pairs unchanged.

Add a focused Google buildRequest test. Cover an invalid call/result pair, a collision with an already-conforming ID, and an unmatched result that must not receive a newly allocated ID.

🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win
Exercise the numeric collision branch.
tests/anthropic-tool-call-id.test.ts Lines 85-88 do not force a collision. The ":" and "/" inputs have different hash tails, so occupied.has(candidate) remains false.
Reserve the normalized candidate for long before allocating long. Then assert that the suffixed ID remains within MAX_TOOL_CALL_ID_LENGTH.
Proposed test change
const allocator = createToolCallIdAllocator();
const long = "x".repeat(MAX_TOOL_CALL_ID_LENGTH * 2) + ":";
- const first = allocator.allocate(long)!;
- expect(first.length).toBeLessThanOrEqual(MAX_TOOL_CALL_ID_LENGTH);

- // Force the collision branch: the disambiguating suffix must fit inside the bound too.
- const second = allocator.allocate(long.slice(0, -1) + "/")!;
- expect(second.length).toBeLessThanOrEqual(MAX_TOOL_CALL_ID_LENGTH);

What happens
Anthropic validates
tool_use.idagainst[a-zA-Z0-9_-].src/adapters/anthropic.tsforwarded ids verbatim, so a transcript carrying ids minted by a different provider path fails with a 400 — and because the offending id stays in the history, every subsequent Anthropic request in that session fails too, until the conversation is discarded.The ids in the report concatenate a Responses-style call id and item id with a literal newline. The
\nalone fails validation:Change
google.tsalready solved exactly this for the Antigravity path, where the backend translates Gemini requests into Anthropicmessages. Rather than copy the logic into a second adapter, this lifts it intosrc/adapters/tool-call-id.tsand points both at it — a correctness-relevant transform living in two places is a transform that eventually drifts.google.tskeeps its localgeminiToolCallIdname as an alias, so its call sites are untouched.In
anthropic.tsit is applied to both sides of the pair:tool_use.idon the assistant sidetool_result.tool_use_idon the result sideThe transform is deterministic, so ids that were equal at the source stay equal after normalization and the call/result pairing survives. The synthetic "missing tool_result" filler already reuses the ids collected in
toolUseIds, which are now normalized at the point they are pushed, so that path needed no change.Ids that already conform are returned unchanged, so ids minted by Anthropic itself round-trip untouched.
Tests
tests/anthropic-tool-call-id.test.ts, 5 cases:toolu_…,call_…,call-…)^[a-zA-Z0-9_-]+$with no newlinecall:aandcall/ado not collapse to the same id — the hash suffix keeps the mapping injectiveundefinedso the caller omits the field rather than inventing oneRun locally with
bun test: 5 pass.For the refactor half, the existing suites are the regression proof — every
google-*andanthropic-*test file still passes unchanged (473 tests across 28 files, 0 fail), which is what shows the shared function behaves identically to thegeminiToolCallIdit replaced.bun x tsc --noEmitis clean.Note on scope
I did not add an adapter-level test asserting the emitted wire id, because the change is three call sites feeding an already-tested pure function and I did not want to stand up request fixtures for a repo moving as fast as this one. Happy to add one if you would rather have the wiring pinned too.
