Fix incorrect return annotation on StructuredData.get() - #895
Fix incorrect return annotation on StructuredData.get()#895giordano-lucas wants to merge 1 commit into
Conversation
`StructuredData.get()` was annotated as returning `TBaseModel` (bound to `BaseModel`), but when the payload has no user-provided schema it is stored wrapped in a `DictBaseModel` (`RootModel[Any]`) and `get()` returns the unwrapped plain JSON object — a `dict`, not a `BaseModel`. The `# type: ignore[attr-defined]` sat on exactly that line and hid the mismatch. Widen the annotation to `TBaseModel | dict[str, Any]` instead of removing the unwrapping, since callers (SDK `PageClient.scrape`, local `NotteSession.scrape` and their `dict[str, Any]` overloads, `tests/pipe/scraping/test_schema.py`) depend on the dict being returned. Runtime behaviour is unchanged. Knock-on fixes now that the type is honest: - drop the `# pyright: ignore[reportUnnecessaryIsInstance]` in `page.py`, where the `isinstance(extracted_data, BaseModel)` guard is genuinely necessary - align the async `NotteSession.ascrape` instructions-only overload with its sync sibling (`dict[str, Any]`) and widen the implementation signature - guard the `scrape-logo` example, which called `.get().get_url(...)` Add unit tests covering the dict payload, the model payload, a payload deserialized from a response body, and the failure path.

Walkthrough
Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~20 minutes Mergeability Score: 🟡 Moderate · up to StructuredData.get() can still return a list for accepted list payloads, while the updated public annotations promise only a model or dictionary. Typed callers may therefore use dictionary operations on a list and fail at runtime, so the return contract and regression coverage should be corrected before merging. Possibly related PRs

Represent accepted list payloads in the public result contract.
StructuredData.wrap_dict_in_root_model wraps both dict and list values in RootModel. StructuredData.get() then returns data.root, so a deserialized list payload returns a list at runtime. The cast and the ascrape overloads instead promise dict[str, Any]. This lets typed callers use dictionary operations on a list result.

### Issue 1
packages/notte-core/src/notte_core/data/space.py:108
**List roots retain the wrong type**
When structured extraction produces a top-level JSON list, this cast advertises the unchanged list root as `dict[str, Any]`, allowing callers to type-check dictionary operations such as `.items()` or `**` unpacking that then fail at runtime.
### Issue 2
tests/test_structured_data.py:33-45
**Integration coverage remains absent**
This response-shaped case directly calls `DataSpace.model_validate`, so the backend bug fix still lacks the integration test required by the repository policy and leaves the actual scrape-response path unprotected from regression.

The bug
StructuredData.get()was annotated-> TBaseModel(bound toBaseModel), but whendataholds aDictBaseModel(which isRootModel[Any]— what thewrap_dict_in_root_modelbefore-validator produces for any dict/list payload) it returnsself.data.root, i.e. the unwrapped plain dict. The# type: ignore[attr-defined]sat on exactly that line and hid the mismatch.Measured against
main:whereas
StructuredData[Verification](success=True, data=Verification(status="found")).get()correctly returnsVerification.Callers that trust the annotation and write
result.data.structured.get().model_dump()get anAttributeErrorat runtime whenever the payload was raw JSON. And a type checker actively works against the correct code:packages/notte-sdk/src/notte_sdk/endpoints/page.pyhad to carry a# pyright: ignore[reportUnnecessaryIsInstance]on itsisinstance(extracted_data, BaseModel)guard, because basedpyright believed the annotation and called the (necessary) check redundant.Is the dict path reachable from real responses?
Yes — verified two ways locally, though not against the live API:
ScrapeResponseisDataSpace, whosestructuredis aStructuredData[BaseModel]. Deserializing an API-shaped body —{"markdown": ..., "structured": {"success": true, "data": {"status": "found"}}}— viaScrapeResponse.model_validateputs aRootModel[Any]instructured.data, and.get()returns a plaindict.SchemaScrapingPipe.forward(packages/notte-browser/src/notte_browser/scraping/schema.py) requestsStructuredData[DictBaseModel]from the LLM whenever noresponse_formatwas given, so the local scrape path produces the same shape.So any
scrape(instructions=...)without aresponse_formatlands on the dict branch. I did not confirm this against a live API call — only against the response models and pipes in this repo.Which fix, and why
Two candidates were considered:
TBaseModel | dict[str, Any]and drop thetype: ignore.RootModel, soget()genuinely returns a model.Option 1 was chosen, because option 2 is a runtime behaviour change that breaks existing callers. Call sites checked:
packages/notte-sdk/src/notte_sdk/endpoints/page.py:207(raise_on_failure=True)structured.get()straight to the user. The instructions-only overload is declared-> dict[str, Any], andtyping_cases/scrape_overloads.py+tests/sdk/test_scrape_overload_typing.pyassert that reveal type. Would break under option 2.packages/notte-browser/src/notte_browser/session.py:1134(localascrape)data.structured.get()to the user; the syncscrapeoverload declaresdict[str, Any]. Would break under option 2.tests/pipe/scraping/test_schema.py:258data = result.get()thenassert isinstance(data, dict)anddata["hotels"]. Would break under option 2.tests/integration/sdk/test_scraping.py:88assert structured.get() == structured.dataafter the SDK already unwrapped.data. Would break under option 2.tests/integration/sdk/test_scraping.py:73,216andtests/browser/test_tools.py:48,67,128response_format=..., andDataSpace.from_structured(ListEmailResponse(...))innotte_browser/tools/base.py). Unaffected either way.examples/scrape-logo/agent.py:37-38data.get().get_url(url)withresponse_format=Logo. Runtime-correct today (the SDK re-validates intoresponse_format), but the honest union makes it a type error, so it now guards withisinstance(logo, Logo).Runtime behaviour is unchanged by this PR.
