Models with reasoning/thinking capabilities (e.g. Qwen3 with --reasoning-parser) emit <think> tags before generating content. When combined with response_format=json_object and vLLM's guided decoding, this causes an infinite abort-retry loop because the thinking tokens violate the JSON schema constraint. Automatically sets enable_thinking=false via chat_template_kwargs whenever structured JSON output is requested.

Summary
Models with reasoning/thinking capabilities (e.g. Qwen3 with
--reasoning-parser) emit<think>tags before generating content. When combined withresponse_format=json_objectand vLLM's guided decoding, this causes an infinite abort-retry loop — the thinking tokens violate the JSON schema, vLLM aborts, the client retries, and the process hangs indefinitely.This blocks persona generation at ~50-53 out of 75 agents every time.
