            allowed_objects: Allowlist of classes that can be deserialized.
                - `'core'` (default): Allow classes defined in the serialization
                    mappings for `langchain_core`.
                - `'all'`: Allow classes defined in the serialization mappings.

                    This includes core LangChain types (messages, prompts, documents,
                    etc.) and trusted partner integrations. See
                    `langchain_core.load.mapping` for the full list.
                - Explicit list of classes: Only those specific classes are allowed.
            secrets_map: A map of secrets to load.
                If a secret is not found in the map, it will be loaded from the
                environment if `secrets_from_env` is `True`.
            valid_namespaces: Additional namespaces (modules) to allow during
                deserialization, beyond the default trusted namespaces.
            secrets_from_env: Whether to load secrets from the environment.
            additional_import_mappings: A dictionary of additional namespace mappings.

                You can use this to override default mappings or add new mappings.

                When `allowed_objects` is `None` (using defaults), paths from these
                mappings are also added to the allowed class paths.
            ignore_unserializable_fields: Whether to ignore unserializable fields.
            init_validator: Optional callable to validate kwargs before instantiation.

                If provided, this function is called with `(class_path, kwargs)` where
                `class_path` is the class path tuple and `kwargs` is the kwargs dict.
                The validator should raise an exception if the object should not be
                deserialized, otherwise return `None`.

                Defaults to `default_init_validator` which blocks jinja2 templates.
