Same path applied to tool_choice when carrying a description. Anthropic / Claude tool shape (name + description directly on the tool object) also covered. 2. Responses API content bypasses scanning (atr.py:281) _extract_request_content branches on data['input'] alongside the existing data['messages'] / data['prompt'] paths. Supports both the string-input shape and the content-part-list shape used by /v1/responses. _extract_response_content mirrors this for the response side: walks response.output[*].content[*].text + the top-level response.output_text convenience field. 3. doc file removal docs/my-website/docs/proxy/guardrails/atr.md is removed from this PR per Greptile's repository-policy nit. Will open the equivalent in BerriAI/litellm-docs as a follow-up. Three new tests pin the behaviour: - test_scan_tools_function_description_blocked: tool.function.description with hidden instructions reaches the engine and triggers a block. - test_scan_responses_api_input_blocked: data['input'] content-part shape reaches the engine. - test_scan_responses_api_output_blocked: response['output'][*].content[*].text reaches the engine.
