## TL;DR

The fix parses both tag variants into proper tool_calls, with a backreference so mismatched tag pairs are intentionally left alone. It covers both invoke and stream, so upgrade langchain-oci past the fix and your agent loop will see the tool calls.

## Steps

1. The model was returning tool calls in Qwen-style [tool_call]...[/tool_call] or [tool_calling]...[/tool_calling] tags, and the parser simply did not handle those tags, so everything stayed in content and tool_calls came back empty. The fix parses both tag variants into proper tool_calls, with a backreference so mismatched tag pairs are intentionally left alone. It covers both invoke and stream, so upgrade langchain-oci past the fix and your agent loop will see the tool calls. Source: https://github.com/oracle/langchain-oracle/issues/207

## When to use

You are seeing this: Using Qwen3 models through ChatOCIGenAI with LangChain tool calling, the tool calls are not parsed into AIMessage.tool_calls. Use this skill when you run into "Qwen3 tool calls not parsed into AIMessage.tool_calls on OCI".

## When not to use

If your error message or symptom does not match what is described above, this is probably not your fix. Search for your exact error text instead of forcing this one to fit.

## Versions

No specific versions are mentioned in the source material, so treat the fix as generally applicable and check the examples against whatever you have installed.

## Why this happens

The original report does not dig into a root cause. It documents the symptom and the fix that resolved it.
