LLMs (especially smaller models) sometimes pass multiple indicator
names as a single comma-separated string instead of making separate
tool calls. Split and process each individually at the tool boundary.
InvestDebateState was missing bull_history, bear_history, judge_decision.
RiskDebateState was missing aggressive_history, conservative_history,
neutral_history, latest_speaker, judge_decision. This caused KeyError
in _log_state() and reflection, especially with edge-case config values.
Prevents UnicodeEncodeError on Windows where the default encoding
(cp1252/gbk) cannot handle Unicode characters in LLM output.
Closes#77, closes#114, closes#126, closes#215, closes#332
- Created new files for industry performance, market indices, market movers, sector performance, and topic news.
- Implemented end-to-end tests for scanner functionality, ensuring all tools return expected data formats and can save results to files.
- Added integration tests to verify scanner tools work seamlessly with the CLI scan command.
- Enhanced test coverage for individual scanner tools, validating output structure and content.
## Summary
The changes refactor the scanner tool invocation to use LangChain's StructuredTool `.invoke()` method consistently across the codebase. This includes updating the CLI scan command, rewriting tests to use the new invocation pattern, and correcting yfinance screener key mappings. The changes also add comprehensive end-to-end test suites for scanner functionality.
## Issues Found
| Severity | File:Line | Issue |
|----------|-----------|-------|
| WARNING | cli/main.py:1193-1218 | Inconsistent error handling - some tools check for "Error" prefix while others check for "No data" prefix, but the actual error messages from yfinance_scanner.py use different formats |
| WARNING | tradingagents/dataflows/yfinance_scanner.py:34 | The condition `if not data or 'quotes' not in data:` may not catch all error cases - yfinance screener can return empty data structures that evaluate to False but don't contain 'quotes' key |
| SUGGESTION | tests/test_scanner_tools.py:38-46 | Test could be more robust by checking for actual data content rather than just headers |
| SUGGESTION | cli/main.py:1193-1218 | Consider extracting the scanner tool invocation pattern into a helper function to reduce duplication |
## Detailed Findings
### File: cli/main.py:1193-1218
- **Confidence:** 85%
- **Problem:** The error handling checks for different prefixes ("Error" vs "No data") but the actual functions in yfinance_scanner.py return error messages with different formats (e.g., "Error fetching market movers for..."). This inconsistency could lead to improper error handling where error results are still saved to files.
- **Suggestion:** Standardize error checking by creating a helper function that checks if a result indicates an error, or modify the yfinance_scanner functions to return consistent error prefixes.
### File: tradingagents/dataflows/yfinance_scanner.py:34
- **Confidence:** 80%
- **Problem:** The condition `if not data or 'quotes' not in data:` assumes that if data exists, it will contain a 'quotes' key. However, yfinance screener might return data in different formats or empty objects that don't contain this key, leading to potential KeyError exceptions.
- **Suggestion:** Add more robust checking: `if not data or not isinstance(data, dict) or 'quotes' not in data:` to prevent attribute errors.
### File: tests/test_scanner_tools.py:38-46
- **Confidence:** 75%
- **Problem:** The test for market movers only checks that the result contains the expected header but doesn't verify that actual financial data is present in the table rows.
- **Suggestion:** Enhance the test to verify that data rows are present (e.g., check for table rows with actual data, not just headers).
### File: cli/main.py:1193-1218
- **Confidence:** 70%
- **Problem:** The scanner tool invocation pattern is repeated 5 times with only minor variations in arguments, violating the DRY principle.
- **Suggestion:** Extract this pattern into a helper function like `invoke_scanner_tool(tool, args, filename)` to reduce code duplication and improve maintainability.
## Recommendation
**APPROVE WITH SUGGESTIONS**
The changes are fundamentally sound and improve code consistency by standardizing on the StructuredTool `.invoke()` interface. The added test coverage is excellent. Addressing the minor issues noted above would further improve robustness and maintainability.
