 ### Fixes
 
+- Agents/OpenAI-compatible: default proxy/local completions tool requests to `tool_choice: "auto"` when tools are present, so providers enter native tool-calling mode instead of replying with plain-text tool directives. (#71472) Thanks @Speed-maker.
 - OpenAI image generation: use `gpt-5.5` for the Codex OAuth responses transport instead of the retired `gpt-5.4` model, fixing 500s from ChatGPT Codex image generation. Fixes #71513. Thanks @baolongl.
 - Google video generation: download direct MLDev Veo `video.uri` results instead of passing them through the Files API path, fixing 404s after successful generation/polling. Fixes #71200. Thanks @panhaishan.
 - Google video generation: fall back to the REST `predictLongRunning` Veo endpoint for text-only SDK 404s while keeping reference image/video generation on the SDK path. Fixes #62309 and #63008. (#62343) Thanks @leoleedev.
