car-inference-types 0.55.0

//! Pure-serde conversation/message wire types for CAR inference.
//!
//! These types — [`Message`], [`ToolCall`], [`ContentBlock`] — define the
//! multi-turn conversation wire form that car-inference's protocol handlers
//! and local chat templates consume. They were extracted out of
//! `car-inference` (where they still live as re-exports) so a **dependency-
//! light** consumer can build and pattern-match the REAL types without pulling
//! the Candle/MLX inference stack:
//!
//! - `car-inference` re-exports every type here (`pub use
//!   car_inference_types::{Message, ToolCall, ContentBlock}`), so its own
//!   callers are unchanged.
//! - `car-sync`'s transcript-resume projection (multi-device sync B2) builds
//!   `Vec<Message>` directly from folded conversation ops. Because it depends
//!   on this crate — not on a hand-copied mirror — a change to `Message`'s
//!   shape is a **compile error** at the resume site, not a runtime
//!   `from_value::<Message>` break in the daemon (the drift trap the kernel
//!   review flagged).
//!
//! The crate is deliberately serde-only. Anything that needs Candle, a
//! tokenizer, or a model backend belongs in `car-inference`, not here.
