openai-node and openai-python picked up the same API change for Live Decisions, adding message roles, function and custom tool calls, and structured question instructions.

feat(api): expand Live Decision item and question types openai/openai-node

by dpiet-oai

The Node SDK now accepts user, developer, system, and assistant messages inside Live Decision items, alongside function and custom tool call and output types. Questions can also carry plain strings or structured instruction parts, so code that previously flattened instructions into a single string no longer has to.

The Python SDK carries the identical change set, keeping the two clients in step: the same four message roles, the same function and custom tool call and output types, and the same string-or-parts question input. Callers pinning one language can match the other without translation.
