Clear the deferred full-repo lint backlog so the whole tree passes the strict
ruff select (E,W,F,I,B,UP,C4,SIM). Mechanical fixes dominate: import sorting,
pep585/604 annotations, dropped dead imports, and whitespace. The few semantic
changes are behavior-preserving: declare __all__ on the agent_utils and
alpha_vantage re-export hubs; expand 'from x import *' to explicit names; use
immutable tuple defaults instead of mutable list defaults; contextlib.suppress
for try/except/pass; and narrow an over-broad assertRaises.
DeepSeek V4 and reasoner reject tool_choice but accept tools.
Route via a per-model capability table that suppresses tool_choice
for thinking-mode models.
#678#689
Resolves#599: thinking-mode models require reasoning_content to be
echoed back across turns; multi-turn agent runs failed with HTTP 400.
The fix isolates DeepSeek's quirks (reasoning_content round-trip and
the deepseek-reasoner no-tool_choice limitation) into a subclass so
the general OpenAI-compatible client stays untouched. Adds DeepSeek
V4 Pro/Flash to the catalog. 9 new tests; rationale documented in
the class docstrings.
Design adapted from #600; #611 closed in favour of this approach.
