The follow-up track's tool-loop refactor moved
'from src.openai_compatible import send_openai_compatible,
OpenAICompatibleRequest, NormalizedResponse' to MODULE level
in src/ai_client.py. This violates the startup_speedup_20260606
invariant: heavy SDKs must not be loaded at module level because
ai_client.py is on the main thread's import chain.
src/openai_compatible.py line 5 does 'from openai import
OpenAIError, ...', so any import from it triggers the openai SDK
to load. test_ai_client_does_not_import_openai_at_module_level
guards this invariant and was failing.
Fix: move the imports back to local scope inside the function
bodies that need them:
- _default_send closure inside run_with_tool_loop
(imports send_openai_compatible)
- _send_grok (imports OpenAICompatibleRequest)
- _send_minimax (imports OpenAICompatibleRequest)
- _send_llama (imports OpenAICompatibleRequest)
- _send_gemini_cli (imports OpenAICompatibleRequest + NormalizedResponse)
Test patches: tests that previously patched
'src.ai_client.send_openai_compatible' now patch
'src.openai_compatible.send_openai_compatible' (the actual
import source). _execute_tool_calls_concurrently patches
unchanged (it's defined in src/ai_client.py itself).
Green confirmed: 62 vendor + tool + import-isolation tests
pass. 0 regressions.
