Summary

Do not pass charge_spin=None to scripted model methods that predate that optional argument. Preserve the keyword when a charge/spin tensor is supplied. Apply the same rule in inference and the model wrapper.

The regression loads the repository's legacy scripted fixture and compares native versus external (vesin) neighbor-list evaluation for energy, forces and virial.

Validation

Based on current master (7a9510d).

• pytest -q source/tests/pt/model/test_nlist_backend.py: 12 passed, 7 conditional GPU/backend skips. The new legacy-model regression executed and passed with vesin.
• All applicable repository pre-commit hooks passed, including pylint.

Tests used the proposed Python source with the existing compatible PyTorch 2.11 native operators. This is a Python schema-compatibility fix; a full native-backend rebuild was not required for that focused test.

Summary by CodeRabbit

• Bug Fixes
  • Improved compatibility with older models that do not accept optional charge-spin data. Explicitly provided charge-spin values continue to be passed through during inference and training.
  • Added a regression check confirming consistent evaluation results between native and external neighbor-list backends for a legacy model, helping ensure users receive matching results across these options.

CI follow-up (2026-10-07)

The exact-head Read the Docs build fails while installing doc/requirements.txt, before Sphinx runs: the selected PyTorch headers require C++20, while the current target baseline selects C++17. The same build-standard mismatch appears on all five related contribution heads (#6051 through #6055). Existing issue #6048 and PR #6049 already address this compatibility problem; this PR leaves that repair in its independent upstream review. The Read the Docs check remains failed until that dependency is resolved and the build is rerun. The exact-head pre-commit.ci check passes; GitHub Actions still require maintainer approval.

Walkthrough

DeepEval and ModelWrapper omit charge_spin when its value is None, while forwarding supplied values. Tests cover legacy scripted model compatibility and compare native and external neighbor-list evaluation.

Changes: Optional charge_spin compatibility

Layer / File(s)	Summary
Inference compatibility deepmd/pt/infer/deep_eval.py, source/tests/pt/model/test_nlist_backend.py	DeepEval omits charge_spin when it is None in both lower-model paths. A Vesin-gated test compares native and Vesin neighbor-list results for a legacy scripted model.
Wrapper compatibility deepmd/pt/train/wrapper.py, source/tests/pt/test_wrapper.py	ModelWrapper omits charge_spin from model inputs when it is None. Tests check calls to a scripted legacy-signature model and verify that supplied charge_spin values are forwarded in inference, skip-loss, and training modes.

Full details: Docstring Coverage

Explanation

Docstring coverage is 66.67% which is insufficient. The required threshold is 80.00%. Docstring coverage is scoped to functions touched by this diff with cyclomatic complexity of at least 2. Documentation-only edits and deletions within surviving functions are included; unchanged diff context and fully deleted functions are excluded. Analyzed 6 functions across 4 files.

Resolution

Write docstrings for the functions missing them to satisfy the coverage threshold.

Reviewed exact head ae9f255, including the full three-file patch, the native and external-neighbor-list dispatch, the modern model signatures, the energy-loss call path, and existing wrapper tests. No blocking correctness finding.

The compatibility change is consistent across the call sites: ModelWrapper omits only an absent charge_spin value, and both extended-coordinate and edge-schema lower calls do the same. A supplied tensor is retained. The modern EnergyModel/make_model and SeZM signatures default this argument to None, so omission preserves their existing missing-input/default behavior. The legacy fixture regression exercises both native wrapper dispatch and the Vesin lower path and compares energy, force and virial.

Nonblocking test suggestion: separate the native/wrapper compatibility assertion from the Vesin availability mark. Currently, without the optional Vesin dependency the whole new regression is skipped, including the native path. A small wrapper contract test using a legacy scripted signature, plus a modern toy model that asserts it receives the exact supplied charge_spin tensor, would protect both halves of this contract without the optional neighbor-list dependency. The existing wrapper toy accepts charge_spin but discards it, so it does not cover the forwarding guarantee.

Validation limit: this was a source review through the connector; I did not independently execute pytest or reproduce the PR's reported 12 passing tests. At review time the exact-head GitHub Actions runs reported action_required, pre-commit passed, and Read the Docs reported failure.

[Zhang-pchao]

Added a scripted toy model without a charge_spin argument, independent of Vesin, plus an identity check for an explicitly supplied tensor. Both cover inference, skip-loss and training. The wrapper and neighbor-list tests pass locally (19 passed, 7 conditional skips, 6 subtests passed). The existing Vesin parity test is retained.

Reviewed delta ae9f255 → 285932e. No new blocking finding.

The added tests address my earlier suggestion: a TorchScript-compiled legacy model lacks charge_spin and runs through inference, skip-loss, and loss-mediated dispatch without Vesin. The modern toy asserts object identity of the supplied tensor in all three modes. Production code is unchanged.

Validation: full test-file/wrapper source review and Python syntax parsing. PyTorch is unavailable in this review environment, so these tests were not independently executed. Exact-head pre-commit passes, RTD fails, and seven Actions workflows remain action_required.
