[Bug]: Qwen3-Coder streaming tool parser never completes a zero-argument tool call

[Yigtwxx]

System Info

• CPU architecture: N/A (reproducible with a pure-Python snippet, no GPU required)
• GPU: N/A
• TensorRT-LLM branch: main
• TensorRT-LLM commit: f7f596b94e
• OS: N/A

The report concerns tensorrt_llm/serve/tool_parser/qwen3_coder_parser.py and affects
streaming /v1/chat/completions responses for tool_parser: qwen3_coder, which
tool_parser_factory.py also selects for nemotron_h_omni.

Who can help?

No response

Reproduction

A tool call whose function takes no parameters is written by the model as a
<function=...> block with no <parameter> children. In streaming,
Qwen3CoderToolParser.parse_streaming_increment emits the name, then on </tool_call> it
only appends a closing brace when some argument text was already streamed
(qwen3_coder_parser.py:156-172):

current_streamed = self.streamed_args_for_tool[self.current_tool_id]
if current_streamed:
    ...
    if open_braces > close_braces:
        calls.append(ToolCallItem(..., parameters="}"))

With no parameter block nothing was streamed, so the branch is skipped and the call
completes with an empty arguments string. detect_and_parse on the same text returns
{}.

from tensorrt_llm.serve.openai_protocol import ChatCompletionToolsParam, FunctionDefinition
from tensorrt_llm.serve.tool_parser.qwen3_coder_parser import Qwen3CoderToolParser

tools = [ChatCompletionToolsParam(
    type="function",
    function=FunctionDefinition(
        name="get_time", description="Get current time",
        parameters={"type": "object", "properties": {}}))]

text = "<tool_call>\n<function=get_time>\n</function>\n</tool_call>"

streamed = Qwen3CoderToolParser().parse_streaming_increment(text, tools)
print([(c.name, c.parameters) for c in streamed.calls])
oneshot = Qwen3CoderToolParser().detect_and_parse(text, tools)
print([(c.name, c.parameters) for c in oneshot.calls])

Output on main:

[('get_time', '')]
[('get_time', '{}')]

The same happens when the call arrives across several deltas: the name is streamed, and
no argument delta ever follows.

Expected behavior

Concatenating the streamed argument deltas of a call yields the same JSON that
detect_and_parse returns for it. A zero-argument call streams {}, as the other
parsers in the package already do (Glm47ToolParser._finalize_tool_call sends "{}"
when no parameter was streamed, and BaseToolParser.parse_streaming_increment was fixed
to do the same in #17575).

actual behavior

The streaming client receives function.arguments == "", which is not valid JSON, so a
client that parses the arguments before invoking the tool fails on every zero-argument
call, while the non-streaming request for the same output gets {}.

additional notes

• nemotron_h_omni is mapped to this parser in tool_parser_factory.py, so it is affected
  as well.
• I have a fix ready (stream "{}" on completion when nothing was streamed, mirroring
  Glm47ToolParser) and will open a PR referencing this issue.
