Support asynchronous HTML extraction in web_fetch - #60
Conversation
Co-authored-by: Medulla <medulla@tinyhumans.ai>
Tiny Sweeper reviewThe pull request adds support for asynchronous HTML extraction in web_fetch via a new fallible AsyncHtmlExtractor seam (previously reviewed clean), and the latest commits add an entirely new `tinytools::sanitize` module for lexical sanitization of untrusted metadata. Active findings: (1) description — the pull request title/body never mention the new sanitize module, a significant new public API, so the description needs updating before merge; (2) critique — `strip_instruction_fences` repeats removal one token at a time; a single-pass scan is suggested; (3) critique boundary — the truncation-suffix behavior when the cap exactly fits the suffix; (4) security — the fence scan's algorithmic complexity. Reviewers noted that code retrieval and memory were unavailable, so the review saw the diff alone. State: Changes requested Review snapshot
Completeness: Complete What changedweb_fetch gains an `AsyncHtmlExtractor` trait (fallible, async detection and extraction) and an internal `HtmlProvider` enum, with each async operation bounded by the configured request timeout (zero and None fall back to defaults) and provider failures propagated without local retry. Both constructors extract before applying the output cap and skip extraction for raw or explicitly non-HTML responses. Separately, the latest commits introduce `tinytools::sanitize`: `strip_control_chars` (preserving newline/tab), `strip_instruction_fences` (case-insensitive, repeated until stable, scanning original bytes to avoid Unicode offset bugs), `truncate_utf8_safe` (UTF-8-safe truncation with ellipsis suffix) and the combined `sanitize_for_llm` pipeline. Callers supply byte caps; semantic injection detection and approvals remain host policy. The sanitize implementation and fixtures moved from TinyMCP without changing processing and no dependencies were added. Features

I’m a rabbit, nose to the code,
I follow the fetch on its timeout road.
Safe little bytes meet fences removed,
UTF-8 stays whole as the text is approved.
I twitch my ears; the tests all glow,
Then hop through the docs where clear facts grow.

Limit the truncation-header claim to successful results
This claims that every truncated response includes markup_truncated_at=8388608B, but 4xx/5xx responses take the error_body_excerpt path: that path caps the extractor input and returns an error message without constructing the normal fetch header or appending the truncation marker. Either add the marker to error results as well or scope this contract to successful rendered responses.

This adds a public sanitizer, but the repository search shows no production caller: sanitize_for_llm is referenced only by this module's tests, its doctest, and an integration test.

Apply this pipeline at the points where tool, skill, or capability metadata is constructed or forwarded, with the owning byte caps.

Document an input ceiling for untrusted metadata
The contract only describes a caller-supplied output byte cap; it does not bound the size of the untrusted input that must first be copied, scanned, and filtered. A remote server can therefore supply an arbitrarily large description, causing proportional allocation and CPU use before max_bytes is applied. Specify and enforce an input ceiling (or explicitly delegate a bounded read to the caller) so the accepted contract cannot be interpreted as permitting unbounded metadata.

Route metadata through the sanitizer
This documents the behavior as accepted for shared metadata, but the repository search shows sanitize_for_llm only in its sanitizer module and a standalone integration test; no production metadata construction path calls it. As a result, tool, skill, and capability metadata can still reach agent context unsanitized despite this contract. Add or identify the production integration before treating this behavior as accepted, or narrow the specification to the currently exposed standalone API.

Integrate sanitization into metadata production paths
Exporting the sanitizer does not apply it anywhere: the repository has no call sites for sanitize_for_llm, while tool, skill, and capability metadata can still flow directly into the LLM context. Wire sanitize_for_llm into the metadata construction or forwarding paths so callers cannot accidentally bypass the lexical defence.

This only exposes the sanitizer; the repository-wide search shows no production caller of sanitize_for_llm or strip_instruction_fences.

Integrate the pipeline at each metadata construction or forwarding boundary, with the owning byte caps.

Integrate sanitization into metadata production paths
The sanitizer is still only defined and tested; the repository search shows no production caller of sanitize_for_llm. Consequently, tool, skill, and capability metadata can still reach the LLM context without the control-character, instruction-fence, and byte-limit protections this entry describes. Wire the sanitizer into each metadata construction/forwarding path, or narrow this documentation to a helper that callers must explicitly invoke.

Route metadata through the sanitization pipeline
This adds the sanitizer but does not connect it to any production metadata path: the only calls visible in the repository are tests. As a result, tool, skill, and capability descriptions can still be stored or forwarded without control-character stripping, fence removal, or truncation. Wire this function into each production metadata construction/forwarding path before merging.
Additional security observation
Cap the input before sanitizing
[RULE] unbounded-input-processing
max_bytes limits only the final returned string. Every untrusted description is first fully copied by strip_control_chars, scanned by strip_instruction_fences, and copied again before truncation, so a remote server can force unbounded CPU and temporary memory usage with an oversized metadata value. Enforce a documented UTF-8-safe input ceiling before running the pipeline, or otherwise bound the work performed on input.

Apply the ceiling before every extractor operation
The normal fetch path calls asynchronous looks_like_html with the complete response body before render_body applies cap_extractor_input for Markdown conversion. Thus a response larger than 8 MiB can still be passed unbounded to the extractor's detection operation, contrary to this contract and the operational claim that the ceiling bounds extractor input. Either apply the ceiling before detection as well, or narrow this specification to say that the ceiling applies only to Markdown conversion input.

Document an input ceiling for untrusted metadata
The plan calls the sanitizer bounded, but the only bound described by the linked contract is the output byte cap supplied by the caller. There is no maximum input size or upstream read/extraction limit, so an attacker can still provide arbitrarily large metadata and force unbounded scanning and intermediate storage. Define the maximum accepted input size and where it is enforced, or explicitly specify a bounded/streaming implementation.

Document the required metadata input ceiling
The public API accepts any caller-supplied max_bytes, including usize::MAX, and this documentation does not state a mandatory ceiling for untrusted metadata. If a metadata caller omits or misconfigures its presentation cap, the sanitizer provides no bounded output despite describing itself as a cap for untrusted tool, skill, and capability text. Document the required ceiling and enforce or centralize it at the metadata boundary.

Both constructors extract before applying the output cap, and skip extraction for raw or explicitly non-HTML responses. Names, descriptions and schemas are pinned by `src/network/fixtures/`. | |

Document the extractor input ceiling
This documentation now explicitly says extraction happens before the output cap, so max_bytes does not bound the response text supplied to either extractor. A large remote response can therefore be fully buffered and passed to a local or asynchronous extractor before the result limit is applied. Add an enforced input ceiling (preferably while reading the response) and document that separate limit; otherwise callers have no protection against oversized extractor input.

Drop the braces around the single-item use
This doctest uses braces around a single imported item. The repository runs Clippy with -D warnings, and the unnecessary import-braces lint can fail the build when doctests are checked. Use the direct single-item import form.
Additional critique observation
Use a direct import in the doctest
[RULE] clippy-warning
The single-item braced import triggers the repository's clippy-as-errors policy for redundant import grouping. This can make the required all-targets clippy check fail even though the library code itself is valid.

web_fetchcurrently requires a synchronous HTML extractor, which prevents a host from awaiting extraction in a loadable module. AddAsyncHtmlExtractorandWebFetchTool::new_async, preserving the existing constructor and tool declaration. Detection and extraction failures propagate without a local retry; raw/non-HTML handling and extraction-before-truncation behavior are preserved.This is a prerequisite for OpenHuman’s TinyJuice boundary migration: tinyhumansai/openhuman#7292. Consumers update their TinyTools gitlink separately after this lands.
Validation: formatting, clippy with all targets/features and warnings denied, build with all targets/features, and all-feature tests passed (1,152 unit tests and 6 doctests). New local HTTP fixtures cover asynchronous extraction, detection/extraction failures for success/error responses, and raw/non-HTML bypass. Existing truncation and tool-schema regression tests also pass.
Review follow-up: asynchronous detection and conversion each have the configured request timeout, including the error-response excerpt path. Virtual-time tests prove pending providers terminate, and zero/omitted timeout settings use the same defaults as HTTP. The full validation set passes again.
Shared metadata sanitizer: move the existing lexical stripping and UTF-8 truncation helpers into
tinytools::sanitize, so generic skills and harness metadata can use them without loading MCP. Consumer-specific caps remain with consumers. No new dependencies or MCP behavior are introduced.Independent review accepted immutable commit fa61666 over f6280a5. Fresh reviewer checks passed 22 unit fixtures, one public API fixture and six doctests. Owner validation passed formatting, all-target/all-feature clippy and build, 1,183 workspace tests, 239 default TinyTools tests, strict docs, and per-file coverage (113 files at least 90%; sanitizer 100%). Default/all-feature dependency audits contain no MCP dependency. Prior asynchronous HTML callback changes remain intact.
