Agent Loop：批量工具调用与停止控制
从两个库存分区到一份补货建议，逐项验证多工具批次、失败观察、执行预算与明确终态。
你能带走什么
- 一轮可包含多个工具调用，结果始终按 call_id 关联
- 整批先校验权限、参数、重复与预算，再启动工具
- 可恢复错误进入下一轮观察，重试仍受全部预算限制
- 最终答案通过证据核对与业务重算后才标记完成
1. 从两批库存走到一份补货建议
入门例子跑通以后，Agent Loop 很快会遇到更具体的问题：模型一次申请两个工具，其中一个失败，下一轮该看到什么？同一个调用标识出现两次，是否还要执行？计算已完成，预算却不够再问一次模型，任务算成功吗？这些问题要由运行时给出稳定答案。
本文用一个固定库存任务把这些分支跑出来。north 与 south 两个分区共有四种商品，程序读取进程内的结构化快照，按目标库存减当前库存生成补货建议。CUP 补 6 件、BAG 补 3 件、BOOK 补 4 件，PEN 无需补货；按样例单价计算，合计 21900 分。金额不含税费、运费，也不会生成真实采购单。
代码只依赖 Python 标准库，要求 Python 3.11 及以上，本次在 Python 3.12.14 实际运行。fake_model 是确定性分支函数，没有语言理解能力，也未接入真实模型。它把候选调用和故障顺序固定下来，让我们验证执行控制。下面五段 agent_loop.py 按顺序组成一个文件，测试文件完整列在后文。所有数据均为虚构。
如果还没写过工具登记和最小循环，可以先看从 0 手写一个最小 Agent。这里直接从批量调用、失败观察和停止边界开始，不再重复安装步骤。

第1轮并发读取north与south，第2轮计算，第3轮提交最终答案。CUP补6件7200分，PEN不补，BAG补3件7500分，BOOK补4件7200分，总计21900分。
2. 一轮可以有多个调用 每个结果都要找到原请求
本例把一次模型决策算作一轮。正常流程只需三轮：先申请两个分区读取，再申请一次计划计算，最后交最终答案。一批是同一轮返回的工具调用列表。两个分区互不依赖，可以一起读取；计算依赖读取结果，要等下一轮再申请。工具数和轮次因此是两个不同计数器。
每次调用都有 call_id、name 和 arguments。call_id 标识这一次调用，不能拿工具名称代替，因为同一个工具可以在一批里出现多次。重试 north 时保留同样参数，但换一个新 ID。运行时在整个任务内拒绝重复 ID，避免结果覆盖或无法判断调用身份。
本例本地决策格式 · 不是供应商 API 请求
{
"kind": "calls",
"calls": [
{
"call_id": "r1-north",
"name": "read_partition",
"arguments": {
"partition": "north"
}
},
{
"call_id": "r1-south",
"name": "read_partition",
"arguments": {
"partition": "south"
}
}
]
}同批参数必须已经完整，不能先写一个稍后再解析的结果占位符。本例没有依赖图求解器；若第二个工具必须使用第一个工具刚返回的数据，就把它放到下一轮。这样每批发出时，待执行的函数和参数都能先被完整验证。
样例故意让 south 比 north 更早完成。执行器给结果保留原调用 ID，以 by_id 建立映射，然后按原请求顺序写回 history。这个稳定顺序方便比较轨迹；正确关联依靠 ID。调度库即使返回了有序列表，也不该把数组位置当成业务身份。

两个调用交叉完成。north调用只能接收north结果，south调用只能接收south结果。运行时以call_id建立结果映射，然后按原始调用顺序记录。重试创建新ID。
3. 整批校验通过后 才启动任何工具
TOOLS 是开发者维护的固定登记表。read_partition 只接受 north 或 south；compute_plan 只接受最多四行已知 SKU，每行的库存、目标和单价都必须是范围内的整数。布尔值在 Python 里属于整数的子类，所以这里明确要求 type(value) is int。额外字段、重复 SKU 和任意路径都不能通过。
整批预检先检查调用形状、工具权限、参数和 ID，再检查重复次数与资源。如果第一项是合法读取，第二项是未知的 place_order，两个工具都不会启动。预检失败不会消耗工具额度，但本轮已经发生的模型决策仍计费。这种整批准入仅保护本轮启动边界，不提供跨系统事务或回滚。
图 03 / 概念示意
查看图示文字说明
执行前依次验证批形状与参数、工具与权限、调用ID、重复次数和资源预算。全部通过才启动工具；任何失败整批不启动。
DATA 在本例中按只读快照使用；每次返回都深拷贝。它是普通进程内对象，不是权限沙箱。把任意 Python 函数放进同一进程仍然需要信任该函数。工具名不会交给 eval 或 shell，模型也无法靠参数注册新能力。下面是主程序第一段。

Fixtures 可以让指定分区第一次出现临时错误、权限错误、内部异常或超时。延迟也由测试配置控制。故障开关属于测试代码，模型无法从 arguments 打开或关闭。started、finished 和 cancelled 记录实际调度情况，能核对工具是否启动、谁先结束，以及取消后是否清理。
bounded 同时等待任务和取消事件。取消被触发时，程序取消运行中的协程，并等待它退出；超时也执行相同清理。样例工具都在 await 处让出执行权，不吞取消异常。模型等待、工具等待和整个任务分别设有时限，工具可用时间取单次上限与剩余总时限的较小值。
这种取消是协作式的。阻塞事件循环的函数、无限计算或吞掉 CancelledError 的代码不能被这段实现强制终止；等待清理也可能超过设定时间。生产工具需要可靠的网络超时或独立进程隔离。Python 对取消和超时的行为见asyncio 官方文档。取消同样不代表已经发生的外部副作用会自动撤回。
如果接下来的工具是同步函数，先用同步工具超时实验验证 asyncio.to_thread 包装后的执行行为：等待超时后，已经启动的线程是否仍在运行，资源何时关闭，迟到结果是否还能写回当前任务。该文用独立的标准库门控实验逐项检查这些行为；本页的协作式取消测试不覆盖这条线程执行路径。
图 06 / 概念示意

只有已授权只读且声明并发安全的工具才能并发。同批有非并发安全工具则整批串行。下一轮等待整批观察。取消时停止调度并等待协程清理，协作式取消不能强杀阻塞函数。
并发许可也来自登记表。本例仅运行已允许的只读工具；整批全部标记 parallel_safe 才并发，否则整批串行。只读工具仍可能共享不支持并发的客户端，或依赖某个执行顺序，因此不能仅凭只读两个字开启并发。批大小上限为四，本例最多同时读取两个分区。

temporary 和 tool_timeout 会变成包含 ok、error、retryable 的观察。fake_model 看到 north 尚未成功，就在下一轮只申请补读 north；成功的 south 不重复读取。异常原文不会塞回模型，避免内部路径或敏感诊断意外进入上下文。真实系统可把更详细的诊断放在访问受控的日志中。
retryable 只是本例允许再次申请的标志。重试仍然消耗新一轮模型额度和工具额度，也必须使用新 ID。运行时还把工具名与规范化参数组成签名，同一签名最多准入两次；批内重复也一起计数。换 ID 可以表达新尝试，无法绕过这条限制。
权限错误和未知内部异常会终止任务，不让模型随意换参数继续碰运气。并行批次中的其它工具可能已经完成，本例收齐观察后停止并保留事实。串行批次遇到致命错误，后续调用记为 batch_aborted，不再启动。此前已有的成功结果仍在 history 中。
图 05 / 概念示意
查看图示文字说明
工具执行后先保存观察。可恢复错误可再次提交新ID，但受所有预算与重复限制。权限错误和未知内部异常停止，已完成的并行结果仍保留。最终答案另行验收。
完成与取消可能几乎同时发生。本例优先尊重已经置位的取消事件，即使某个工具刚返回成功，也不会继续申请模型决策。已经启动的调用照常计数，清理结束后返回 cancelled。这种竞争条件要提前定规则，不能靠日志先后猜测用户意图。
这些错误码、重试次数和策略都是本文的应用设计。现实接口还要区分限流、临时网络错误和不可重试的业务拒绝，并按服务约定做退避。本文只演示一次有限恢复，不把立即重试推广为所有服务的推荐策略。
6. 预算检查要覆盖最终答案和整批调用
Limits 同时限制模型轮次、实际工具调用数、模拟额度、同签名尝试次数，以及三种时间上限。模型每次决策消耗 3 额度，读取一次消耗 2，计算一次消耗 4。这里的额度是确定性的教学单位，不是 token、人民币价格，也不是 219 元补货建议的采购预算。
正常轨迹依次累计 7、14、17 额度。只有 16 额度时，第二轮计算可以完成，第三轮模型决策不能开始；状态为 credit_limit，answer 仍为空。final 也占一轮决策，因此把最大轮数设为二同样无法完成。程序不能因为已经有一个看起来正确的中间结果，就伪造完成状态。
图 04 / 概念示意
查看图示文字说明
决策一次3额度，读一次2额度，算一次4额度。三轮累计分别7、14、17。重试额外消耗5，总计22。额度仅为本地控制流演示。
模型决策额度在调用前扣除，模型异常也不退款。整批工具额度和次数先做容量检查，实际启动才计入 used。签名次数则按整批准入记账。全部计数都活在一次运行中，进程重启后不会保留；持久化恢复可以接着看长任务状态与恢复，这里不扩展数据库或队列架构。
下一段同时放入最终验收函数。它从固定快照独立重算补货数量和金额，并检查两分区读取及计算调用证据。这样，后面的循环只需决定何时调用验收器，不必夹杂业务计算。

run_agent 使用有界 for 循环。每轮先检查取消和总时限，再判断能否支付一次模型决策。模型输出必须符合本例的 calls 或 final 形状；空批次不是继续信号。calls 通过整批预检后执行，观察写入历史，再决定下一轮。final 通过独立验收才得到 completed。
history 保存实际调用与结果。传给模型的是深拷贝，模型修改输入对象不会反向污染已存证据。测试还区分两种行为：只改自己的历史副本不会影响任务；如果它同时改坏了即将返回的计算参数，最终验收仍会拒绝错误结论。复制数据不能把错误决策变成正确决策。
停止状态区分 round_limit、call_limit、credit_limit、deadline、cancelled、model_timeout 和工具错误。排查时先看 status，再看最后一次 decision 与 observations；不要把所有退出都压成一个笼统失败。这里的 trace 只记录动作和资源，不保存模型私有推理。

}9. 完成状态需要可复核的证据
accepted 要求两分区均已成功读取，snapshot 一致，每份 rows 先通过 valid_rows 的字段、整数类型和范围校验，再与本地快照比较，且 compute_plan 使用完整四行输入并产生正确结果。最终答案再与独立重算的结构逐项比较。直接猜中 21900 但跳过读取，或把总额多写 1 分，都只能得到 invalid_final。
图 07 / 概念示意
查看图示文字说明
独立验收需要成功读取两分区、快照版本与原始行一致、正确输入的计算调用及相符输出、最终答案完全正确。30项离线测试未调用真实模型。
答案比较使用规范化 JSON 字符串，避免 Python 把 True 和 1 当成相等值而放过类型错误。商品排列由 SKU 排序确定，金额用整数分保存。固定输出结构使测试可以逐字段核对，而无需判断一段自然语言描述是否看起来合理。
这个验收器针对固定演示快照，不能保证现实库存此刻仍然有效。接入真实库存系统以后，需要明确读取版本、数据新鲜度和采购规则；若后续增加下单能力，还要另做授权、幂等与提交后的核对。本页运行时没有这些写操作，也不允许备注里的文字增加权限。
读取证据也不能只做相等比较。Python 中 False == 0、4.0 == 4，列表和字典中的数值比较也可能把这些不同类型视为相等；这与本文要求库存必须为整数的约定不同。原版只比较 rows 与 DATA，因而漏掉了这两种读取结果。现在先调用既有 valid_rows，再比较具体值。数值与布尔类型的比较规则可查阅 Python 内置类型文档。
新增的 test_31 使用固定决策顺序：读取两分区、用正确的四行整数输入计算、提交预先写定的 21900 分答案。工具替身只把读取结果中的 BOOK 库存 0 改成 False，或把 CUP 库存 4 改成 4.0，避免后续参数校验先挡住错误、掩盖最终验收的缺口。修复前两种情况都错误地 completed；修复后都为 invalid_final，answer 为 None，历史仍保留原始错误类型供核查。干净读取仍为 completed，金额仍是 21900 分。这项检查发生在最终验收，不表示工具刚返回时就已经完成结果结构校验。
2026 年 10 月 20 日在 Python 3.12.14 离线复跑：更新后的 31 项 unittest 在普通与 -O 模式均通过；移除新增的 valid_rows 检查后，两种模式的 test_31 都在两个错误类型子用例上失败。前文正常与临时失败恢复演示、后文借用／浅复制／深复制三组固定预期也重新通过。此次未调用真实模型或外部库存服务。
10. 工具返回过的数据，下一轮为什么变了
你给模型传了 deepcopy(history)，旧观察却还是变了，先检查工具返回值的归属。原循环把 data 直接放进 observation；如果工具仍然持有这个字典，并在下次读取时原地更新缓存，history 保存的也会跟着变。把历史复制给模型，只隔开了模型拿到的那份输入。
原 Fixtures 每次读分区都返回新的深拷贝，所以前面的固定样例没有触发这条路径。本节保留原程序，用一个会复用结果缓存的工具替身扩展场景。north、south 分别在两轮中顺序读取，两次返回同一个 dict；里面的 rows 列表和两行字典也在原地更新。全程没有同时运行的工具，不需要制造时间竞争。
输入沿用四行库存：CUP 当前 4、目标 10、单价 1200 分；PEN 为 12、8、300；BAG 为 2、5、2500；BOOK 为 0、4、1800。固定决策脚本依次读取 north、读取 south、用这四行计算，再提交预先写定的答案。正确补货为 BAG 3 件 7500 分、BOOK 4 件 7200 分、CUP 6 件 7200 分，合计 21900 分。这个脚本故意不从可能漂移的历史生成下一步，用来单独观察结果交付边界；它没有模型推理能力。
先把判断标准写清楚：每次读取交付时的分区和库存必须正确；后续更新缓存后，历史中的那次观察也必须保留当时的值。计算得到 21900 分，还要配得上完整的读取证据，最终才能 completed。
11. 复用同一个缓存，比较三种交付方式
将下面的 result_ownership.py 放到原 agent_loop.py 同一目录。ReusedCache 的 returned_objects 保存两次真实返回的引用，用 is 检查对象身份；delivered_values 则在交付当刻抽取字符串和整数，留下不会跟着缓存变化的值。二者分别回答“是不是同一对象”和“当时交付了什么”。
DeliveryBoundary 提供三种对照：borrowed 原样交出引用，shallow_copy 只复制外层字典，deep_copy 在工具交付后立即取得独立副本。每组都新建缓存并经过原 run_agent、原 compute_plan 和原 accepted；没有替换最终验收器，也没有改写原 DATA。

这里让一个工具同时复用外层与嵌套对象，目的是让浅复制的缺口可见。若某个真实工具只替换外层字段、不改嵌套值，现象可能不同；应按它实际保留和更新的对象检查。
12. 浅复制保住了分区名，却没保住库存行
直接运行 python3 -B result_ownership.py。三组的 same_object_returned 都应为 true；交付时先看到 north 的 CUP、PEN，库存 4、12，再看到 south 的 BAG、BOOK，库存 2、0。三组计算调用也都得到 21900 分。
- borrowed：最后回看 read-north 的观察，分区已经是 south，SKU 变成 BAG、BOOK，库存变成 2、0。原验收器返回 invalid_final，answer 为 null。
- shallow_copy：read-north 的 observed_partition 仍是 north，但 rows 已变成 BAG、BOOK，库存仍漂移为 2、0。只核对分区名会漏掉问题；最终仍为 invalid_final。
- deep_copy：read-north 保留 CUP、PEN 与 4、12，read-south 保留 BAG、BOOK 与 2、0。完整证据和预期金额一致，最终为 completed，answer 返回那份 21900 分补货建议。
恢复点位于工具交付给循环、写入历史之前。本实验在 DeliveryBoundary.invoke 中立即 deepcopy(data)，让缓存继续服务工具，让循环持有自己的值。退出时才复制整份结果，只能复制已经漂移的历史，补不回交付当刻的事实。出现 invalid_final 时也不应放宽验收，或拿当前库存覆盖旧观察。
下列 expected.json 是独立预先写定的预期，运行输出不得回填成预期。它同时检查对象复用、交付时的值、最终历史、计算金额、终态和完整答案，避免只把状态改为 completed 就算恢复。

PASS: borrowed and shallow histories drift; deep-owned history is stable这里的充分条件很窄：数据来自受信任的样例工具，内容是普通字典、列表、字符串、整数及空值；工具在返回后、下一次顺序调用前不会继续后台修改它。deepcopy 能隔开本例的嵌套可变容器。自定义对象可以控制复制行为，文件、套接字等对象也不属于本例支持的结果；复制期间若另有线程修改数据，还需要工具自己的同步或不可变交付约定。复制不提供权限隔离，也不保证现实库存的新鲜度。
本节没有调用真实模型、网络库存或采购接口，也没有测试多线程、跨进程或生产负载。重点是把“工具交付了什么”固定成运行时拥有的证据，供后续步骤核对。Python 的copy 官方文档说明了赋值、浅复制、深复制及自定义复制的区别；资料于本补充执行当天核对，文档属于 Python 3.12.15 系列，本地解释器版本仍为 3.12.14。
14. 把异常分支也变成能反复运行的测试
随文的 31 项测试实际通过。它们覆盖 ID 批内及跨轮重复、未知工具整批拒绝、结果乱序、额度与轮次的精确边界、启动前与运行中取消、工具超时恢复、总时限、重复签名、参数类型、并发许可、最终证据、读取结果整数类型与历史隔离。测试中的时间间隔用于制造可控顺序，不是性能基准。
注入测试把一条声称用户已批准下单的文字放入工具结果，并模拟决策接口真的请求 place_order。运行时仍以 unknown_tool 拒绝。这证明该样例登记表不会因文本而扩权，不能证明某个真实模型不会受提示注入影响；真实模型的行为评估需要独立进行。

建议先改一个测试条件观察失败，例如把额度从 17 改为 16，再恢复它。之后给自己的业务补一条验收规则和对应反例。每条新工具都应有参数边界、失败分类与停止测试，再考虑接进真实模型。
15. 接入模型时保留调用身份与原始协议
本地 kind、calls 和 observation 是教学接口，并不是供应商统一协议。接 OpenAI Responses API 时，要从 output 中提取 function_call，解析 JSON 编码的 arguments，并在 function_call_output 中回传对应 call_id。模型一次可能返回多个函数调用；parallel_tool_calls 设为 false 可限制为零或一个。格式与配置以官方 Function calling 文档为准。
本地收到一批调用后，是否真正同时执行仍由应用判断。接入层还应保存协议要求的完整响应项目与上下文，处理拒绝、截断和无法解析的输出，并对输入输出字节数、真实用量及网络请求分别设限。本文没有运行真实模型，也没有把模拟额度当成供应商的实际账单。
做到这里，你可以沿一条具体轨迹回答三个工程问题：哪些调用真的执行了，失败后为何继续，任务为何停止。下一步再替换决策接口，保留这套已验证的执行控制与业务验收。

工具返回错误后应该继续还是停止？
按应用策略分类。本例只允许 temporary 和 tool_timeout 再次申请；权限拒绝、未知工具和未分类异常会停止。所有重试都受轮次、调用、额度和签名次数限制。
parallel_tool_calls 是否会自动让本地工具并发？
它控制模型能否一轮提出多个函数调用。本地调度和并发许可仍由运行时决定。本例只允许已登记、只读且 parallel_safe 的工具并发。
总时限到了是否能立即杀掉任何函数？
不能。本例是 asyncio 协作式取消，要求协程让出执行权并正常响应取消。阻塞代码和不配合取消的函数需要额外隔离与回收机制。
31 项测试通过是否意味着真实模型可靠？
没有。测试验证确定性假模型下的执行控制、数据关联和业务验收。真实模型、网络接口及供应商用量均未在本文执行。
