fix: share and strengthen inbound checking for host callable returns - #5382
A callback returning [new Item({value: 1})] or {a: new Item({value: 1})} fails while the equivalent inbound arguments succeed. The early callback guard cannot interpret nested sparse class annotations with their declared context, and the separate callback checking path diverges from supported argument coercions.
Remove the native/Wasm callback guards and reuse coerce_inbound_arg and the same checked, recursive typed materializer used by call_function/call_function_sync. Both paths preserve structural class promotion, numeric coercions, erased generic refinement, aliases, nested annotations, and useful diagnostics. Invalid host returns become HostContractViolation through the existing unwinder; an unavailable engine-owned contract remains an internal engine failure.
Strengthen the shared checker for mismatched nominal identities, enum membership, never, JSON, contradictory union carriers, exact literals, callable signatures, and container/generic parameters. Enum strings become actual variants, and union candidate selection considers declared variant membership under both ambiguity policies. Compiled enum definitions are projected once; runtime contracts supply their actual VM definitions, including variants hidden from model output with @skip. Opaque values and constructed instances use the existing VM membership relation, so supplied generic arguments cannot evade a declared union contract. Structural construction and equivalent union arguments remain supported.
Consolidate definition metadata, identity-rooted handles, package fallbacks, wire-name lookups, and model-facing shapes into RuntimeSchemaOverlay at the FFI boundary. Retain live generic bindings and definition-carrying TypeValues directly. Root callback return type descriptors across suspension, then carry their live heads through generic arguments, class fields, nested containers, enum values, and callable signatures. Distinct same-named declarations remain distinct after moving GC; an ambiguous name cannot silently select a declaration.
Preserve actual VM container element/key/value metadata when copying through an aliased or erased slot. The previous null fallback produced invalid metadata that failed on re-entry under stronger checking. Use the existing call-local projection, consistent with tagged handles and class fields, so anonymous runtime values remain rooted handles.
Red/green parity regressions cover nominal/enum/never/JSON/heap-value gaps, both enum-union policies, runtime definition shadowing, generic argument checking, recursive container round trips, anonymous runtime handles, and distinct same-named declarations across callback suspension and moving GC.
Focused engine suites: 306 passed, 2 existing ignored tests. Full workspace library tests: 5,913 passed, 5 existing ignored tests. VM library coverage is included.
Rebuilt Node suites: 80 passed. Rebuilt Python suites: 52 passed, 1 existing xfail. Ruff and the generated LLM/streaming SDK fixture pass. Supported sync/async combinations and Node's sync-call guard are covered.
Native bridge builds, Wasm compilation, strict Clippy, and formatting pass.

Walkthrough
Host-callable results now use the engine’s schema-aware inbound conversion. Runtime declaration identity is preserved through nested materialization, while native and WASM bridges forward successful results for engine-side checking.
Changes: Inbound contract conversion
Layer / File(s)
Summary
Runtime schema and rooted declarations baml_language/crates/bex_engine/src/lib.rs, baml_language/crates/bex_vm/src/vm.rs, baml_language/crates/bex_external_types/src/host_return.rs
The engine collects runtime declarations and shape metadata in RuntimeSchemaOverlay. It retains declaration handles and uses VM runtime types for identity-aware conversion. Function values expose reconstructed signatures as singleton types.
Entry type preparation and inference baml_language/crates/bex_engine/src/lib.rs, baml_language/crates/bex_engine/src/invocation.rs
Named and callable entries use live type evidence to prepare parameter types. Explicit and definition-carrying bindings take precedence over conflicting live inference.
Realized-type conversion and materialization baml_language/crates/bex_engine/src/conversion.rs, baml_language/crates/bex_engine/src/lib.rs
Inbound conversion carries contextual types through nested containers, classes, enums, and unions. It checks declaration identity, JSON values, Never, and union coercions. Host-return contract failures become HostContractViolation throws.
Host result forwarding and parity tests baml_language/crates/sys_native/src/host_impls.rs, baml_language/crates/sys_wasm/src/host_value.rs, baml_language/crates/bex_engine/tests/host_value_callable.rs, baml_language/sdks/python/tests/*, baml_language/sdks/typescript/bridge_typescript/tests/*
Native and WASM bridges forward successful results without local declared-return validation. Engine and SDK tests compare arguments and callback returns across nested containers, classes, aliases, generics, and sync and async calls.

Merge Risk: Minimal · up to 8dadc
No actionable merge-blocking issue remains in the supplied evidence. Complete the pending final-head checks before merging.
Security architecture risk: Low · up to 8dadc
The change consolidates checks on host-supplied values and strengthens type-identity enforcement. No new security bypass was established in the inspected paths. Residual risk is low because the shared boundary affects multiple callers and concurrency coverage is not exhaustive.
Retained concerns
No architecture-level concerns identified.
Security review details
Security Blast Radius
inferred — The demonstrated attack surface is host-controlled entry arguments and callback results entering type-directed VM execution. Because conversion is shared, an enforcement regression could affect both native and WASM callers. Remote reachability, tenant exposure, and application privileges are not established by this evidence.
Trust Boundaries and Controls
observed — Host annotations do not replace the declared contract: union annotations must select an admissible contextual member and their payloads are checked. Final VM membership covers live class arguments, container parameters, and callable signatures before successful conversion returns to the caller.
Resilience and Maintainability Implications
observed — Class fields are recursively converted before the parent instance is allocated. A failed conversion does not publish a result to the waiting VM frame. Cancellation aborts the outstanding operation and enters cancellation handling; contract unwinding explicitly avoids filling the old return slot.

Explanation
[#5226] requires non-empty class values returned by host callables to satisfy declared Item[] and map<string, Item> contracts. host_callable_containers.test.ts covers Items with [new Item(...)] and ItemMap with { a: new Item(...) }. The tests compare direct arguments with synchronous and asynchronous callback returns. The native bridge no longer applies a separate schema-free return check. It forwards the decoded value to the shared engine inbound conversion path. The test also verifies HostContractViolation for invalid callback payloads.
Full details: Out of Scope Changes check
Explanation
The changed bridge, engine, and test code supports the callback-return fix in [#5226]. Removing duplicate native/Wasm checks and using the shared inbound path is required to match the working argument path. The added identity, container metadata, alias, coercion, and membership handling protects recursive materialization and parity for the same callback boundary. The added tests cover the reported list and map failures and their argument controls. No unrelated UI, release, or product feature changes are evidenced.

Sys-op completion now builds one overlay for its conversion branches, and the redundant dynamic-types forwarding helper is removed. This is a plumbing refactor; declared-type checks, coercions, runtime declaration identity, and handle lifetimes are retained.

@coderabbitai Thanks for checking the shared path. These three comments concern behavior outside the overlay-plumbing change, so I checked them against the pre-refactor head 371c45e360.
Named-instance coercion is an existing, documented inbound behavior: coerce_arg_to_declared_type_with_aliases treats the contextual class as authoritative, and the materializer also applies that class. prepare_entry_point explicitly documents rewriting the registered FQN on Map/Instance/Variant values. Explicit sparse type annotations are checked for assignability before contextual coercion. Adding a return-only nominal guard would violate this PR’s requirement that callback returns use the same canonical checking/coercion as function arguments.
The Never fallback and singleton-variant string admission are unchanged limitations of that shared inbound checker. They warrant separate fixes at the canonical boundary, with argument/return parity coverage; they are not introduced by 869576e181. This follow-up is specifically a behavior-preserving rename and consolidation of the overlay parameters.
Please reassess the overlay refactor on that basis. It passes 5,761 workspace library tests, 167 focused engine unit tests, 49 host-callable/inbound integration tests, Clippy, formatting, and Wasm compilation. I have not added host-specific checks or changed the existing coercion semantics to address these outside-diff comments.
@coderabbitai Please reassess the three outside-diff comments in light of the shared-path explanation. The latest requested change is strictly the TypeDefinitionOverlay rename and parameter consolidation, preserving existing canonical inbound semantics. Is there any issue with that refactor itself? The named-instance behavior is explicitly documented in the existing argument path; Never and singleton-variant string admission are existing shared-checker limitations that need shared argument/return fixes separately, rather than callback-only guards.
Already reviewed the last commit. Use @coderabbitai full review to rerun a review of the entire changeset.

Please review the final head c949457671. The original shared-checker findings, the runtime-enum thread, and the local review's typemap/callable-overlay findings are addressed. The enum thread is verified and resolved; the callable-overlay local reassessment found zero issues.
The final simplification keeps definition-carrying VM TypeValues directly during entry binding. A red/green regression proves that two distinct definitions sharing a wire name retain separate identities, removing the unnecessary entry-binding name overlay. Explicit bindings remain authoritative. The focused engine suites pass 301 tests (2 existing ignored), and Clippy passes. Final SDK/workspace/CI runs are in progress.

Please review current head 069fcff011. The live host-return identity finding is now verified and resolved. The fix roots the return type descriptor across callback suspension and keeps VM declaration identities throughout the shared recursive inbound materializer. A paired argument/return test covers two distinct runtime classes with identical names in generic class arguments, lists, maps, and fields after major GC, plus rejection of an invalid nested field.
All 302 focused engine tests pass (2 existing ignored), as do 77 rebuilt Node tests, strict Clippy, native bridge builds, and Wasm compilation. Python/workspace/CI checks are running. Please reassess the outstanding changes-requested review after checking the current head.
The final CI follow-up is pushed in 0c10ac7920. The CLI recursive-alias test exposed old outbound container metadata that used null when the declared slot was an alias/erased type. Stronger inbound checking correctly rejected the resulting invalid metadata on re-entry. Outbound copying now uses the actual VM container element/key/value types in that fallback, retaining all inbound checks.
The existing CLI test now passes. A red/green engine regression covers copied recursive lists/maps entering the raw stdlib API and returning from a host callback. All 303 focused engine tests, strict Clippy, formatting, and Wasm checks pass. Final SDK/workspace rebuilds and CI are running. The preceding head passed 5,911 workspace library tests and received CodeRabbit approval with no open findings.

@sxlijin I reviewed the metadata follow-up at current head 0c10ac7920. I found no new issues in this change.
Explicit list and map declared types still take precedence. The fallback now uses live VM element/key/value types for both emitted metadata and recursive conversion.
String-key validation remains intact. The change does not weaken inbound checks.
The regression covers nested recursive lists and maps through baml.json.stringify and a host callback return. It checks the serialized output and returned value.
The diff whitespace check passed. I did not run repository tests or builds in this sandbox. Final SDK/workspace rebuilds and CI remain unverified by this review.
Please review final head bdcabf20b9. The core shared inbound changes received approval at 069fcff011. The subsequent recursive-alias CLI CI regression is fixed with actual VM container metadata and a list/map round-trip regression. The local review of that fix found one valid issue: these container descriptors must use the call-local projection, consistent with existing tagged handles and class fields. That is fixed in this head; a red/green regression verifies copying arrays/maps of anonymous runtime values preserves their rooted handles instead of failing name projection.
All 304 focused engine tests pass (2 existing ignored), strict Clippy and formatting pass, and the exact CLI regression passes. The immediately preceding head passed rebuilt Node (77), Python (40 + 1 existing xfail), and generated LLM/streaming SDK tests. Final-head workspace/SDK rebuilds and CI are running. No merge is requested.

Please review current head f21539f98c. All inline findings are now verified and resolved, including enum-union membership. The shared recursive matcher filters enum coercion candidates by their declared variants; static definitions are projected once and runtime contracts supply their actual VM definitions before argument/return coercion. No separate host-return validator was added.
Coverage includes both union policies, unique/unknown/ambiguous variants, aliases, nested containers, and runtime enums shadowing compiled names (including @skip variants). Red reproductions captured both the engine false-ambiguity failure and the Node wrong-enum selection. Current-head checks pass: 306 focused engine tests (2 existing ignored), 80 rebuilt Node tests, 52 rebuilt Python tests (1 existing xfail), Ruff, the generated LLM/streaming fixture, Clippy, native/Wasm builds, and formatting. Full workspace tests and CI are running.
Please reassess the outstanding review state against this head. Do not merge.
Follow-up in 8dadc8472d: the final parity audit found that both arguments and host returns accepted an explicit Box<string> in a declared Box<int | null> slot. The wire compatibility helper intentionally allows incomplete information, but structural instance materialization had not applied the final VM membership check already used for heap handles.
Constructed instances now undergo that same canonical VM check. The red/green regression verifies rejection on both ingress paths, while structural construction and equivalent union arguments remain accepted. All 306 focused engine tests and Clippy pass. Current-head SDK, workspace, Wasm, and CI checks are running. CodeRabbit approved the preceding full enum fix with no open findings; this follow-up is ready for incremental review. No merge is requested.
Please review the incremental follow-up f21539f98c..8dadc8472d. The preceding full review is approved and all threads are resolved. This change routes constructed instances through the existing final VM membership check and adds a red/green regression for invalid generic arguments, with structural-promotion and union-equivalence controls. Current-head Node (80) and generated streaming SDK tests pass; the focused engine suite passes 306 tests and Clippy passes. Remaining final-head checks are running. Do not merge.

Issue Reference
Fixes #5226. Linear: BAMLGH-102. Alternative approach: #5419.
Changes
A callback returning
[new Item({value: 1})]or{a: new Item({value: 1})}fails while the equivalent inbound arguments succeed. The early callback guard cannot interpret nested sparse class annotations with their declared context, and the separate callback checking path diverges from supported argument coercions.Remove the native/Wasm callback guards and reuse
coerce_inbound_argand the same checked, recursive typed materializer used bycall_function/call_function_sync. Both paths preserve structural class promotion, numeric coercions, erased generic refinement, aliases, nested annotations, and useful diagnostics. Invalid host returns becomeHostContractViolationthrough the existing unwinder; an unavailable engine-owned contract remains an internal engine failure.Strengthen the shared checker for mismatched nominal identities, enum membership,
never, JSON, contradictory union carriers, exact literals, callable signatures, and container/generic parameters. Enum strings become actual variants, and union candidate selection considers declared variant membership under both ambiguity policies. Compiled enum definitions are projected once; runtime contracts supply their actual VM definitions, including variants hidden from model output with@skip. Opaque values and constructed instances use the existing VM membership relation, so supplied generic arguments cannot evade a declared union contract. Structural construction and equivalent union arguments remain supported.Consolidate definition metadata, identity-rooted handles, package fallbacks, wire-name lookups, and model-facing shapes into
RuntimeSchemaOverlayat the FFI boundary. Retain live generic bindings and definition-carryingTypeValues directly. Root callback return type descriptors across suspension, then carry their live heads through generic arguments, class fields, nested containers, enum values, and callable signatures. Distinct same-named declarations remain distinct after moving GC; an ambiguous name cannot silently select a declaration.Preserve actual VM container element/key/value metadata when copying through an aliased or erased slot. The previous
nullfallback produced invalid metadata that failed on re-entry under stronger checking. Use the existing call-local projection, consistent with tagged handles and class fields, so anonymous runtime values remain rooted handles.Validation
2143382aad. SDK coverage retains the ticket controls and nested/generic/recursive-alias cases from fix: preserve sparse class annotations in host return containers #5419.CodeRabbit approved
8dadc8472d; all review threads are resolved. CI is green, including Windows, Linux GNU/musl, compiler/CLI/snapshot tests, SDK tests, Wasm, release builds, and the size gate. All 65 reported checks succeeded; 31 conditional checks were skipped. No UI changes. Do not merge automatically.
