Introduces custom AI tools functionality.
1. Why it was added:
The PR adds the ability to create, manage, and use custom AI tools within the Discourse AI system. This feature allows for more flexibility and extensibility in the AI capabilities of the platform.
2. What it does:
- Introduces a new `AiTool` model for storing custom AI tools
- Adds CRUD (Create, Read, Update, Delete) operations for AI tools
- Implements a tool runner system for executing custom tool scripts
- Integrates custom tools with existing AI personas
- Provides a user interface for managing custom tools in the admin panel
3. Possible use cases:
- Creating custom tools for specific tasks or integrations (stock quotes, currency conversion etc...)
- Allowing administrators to add new functionalities to AI assistants without modifying core code
- Implementing domain-specific tools for particular communities or industries
4. Code structure:
The PR introduces several new files and modifies existing ones:
a. Models:
- `app/models/ai_tool.rb`: Defines the AiTool model
- `app/serializers/ai_custom_tool_serializer.rb`: Serializer for AI tools
b. Controllers:
- `app/controllers/discourse_ai/admin/ai_tools_controller.rb`: Handles CRUD operations for AI tools
c. Views and Components:
- New Ember.js components for tool management in the admin interface
- Updates to existing AI persona management components to support custom tools
d. Core functionality:
- `lib/ai_bot/tool_runner.rb`: Implements the custom tool execution system
- `lib/ai_bot/tools/custom.rb`: Defines the custom tool class
e. Routes and configurations:
- Updates to route configurations to include new AI tool management pages
f. Migrations:
- `db/migrate/20240618080148_create_ai_tools.rb`: Creates the ai_tools table
g. Tests:
- New test files for AI tool functionality and integration
The PR integrates the custom tools system with the existing AI persona framework, allowing personas to use both built-in and custom tools. It also includes safety measures such as timeouts and HTTP request limits to prevent misuse of custom tools.
Overall, this PR significantly enhances the flexibility and extensibility of the Discourse AI system by allowing administrators to create and manage custom AI tools tailored to their specific needs.

This is a rather huge refactor with 1 new feature (tool details can
be suppressed)
Previously we use the name "Command" to describe "Tools", this unifies
all the internal language and simplifies the code.
We also amended the persona UI to use less DToggles which aligns
with our design guidelines.

When triggering a PM from new-message route, we still had the UI
for "this is an official warning"
This removes that UI from bot messages, which is all clutter.
LLM selector control had no memory and was awkward to click.
Instead we now:
- Clearly display which llm you are talking to
- Allow you to change llm direct from composer
Add support for chat with AI personas
- Allow enabling chat for AI personas that have an associated user
- Add new setting `allow_chat` to AI persona to enable/disable chat
- When a message is created in a DM channel with an allowed AI persona user, schedule a reply job
- AI replies to chat messages using the persona's `max_context_posts` setting to determine context
- Store tool calls and custom prompts used to generate a chat reply on the `ChatMessageCustomPrompt` table
- Add tests for AI chat replies with tools and context
At the moment unlike posts we do not carry tool calls in the context.
No @mention support yet for ai personas in channels, this is future work
* FIX: various RAG edge cases
- Nicer text to describe RAG, avoids the word RAG
- Do not attempt to save persona when removing uploads and it is not created
- Remove old code that avoided touching rag params on create
* FIX: Missing pause button for persona users
* Feature: allow specific users to debug ai request / response chains
This can help users easily tune RAG and figure out what is going
on with requests.
* discourse helper so it does not explode
* fix test
* simplify implementation
* FEATURE: allow tuning of RAG generation
- change chunking to be token based vs char based (which is more accurate)
- allow control over overlap / tokens per chunk and conversation snippets inserted
- UI to control new settings
* improve ui a bit
* fix various reindex issues
* reduce concurrency
* try ultra low queue ... concurrency 1 is too slow.
This PR lets you associate uploads to an AI persona, which we'll split and generate embeddings from. When building the system prompt to get a bot reply, we'll do a similarity search followed by a re-ranking (if available). This will let us find the most relevant fragments from the body of knowledge you associated with the persona, resulting in better, more informed responses.
For now, we'll only allow plain-text files, but this will change in the future.
Commits:
* FEATURE: RAG embeddings for the AI Bot
This first commit introduces a UI where admins can upload text files, which we'll store, split into fragments,
and generate embeddings of. In a next commit, we'll use those to give the bot additional information during
conversations.
* Basic asymmetric similarity search to provide guidance in system prompt
* Fix tests and lint
* Apply reranker to fragments
* Uploads filter, css adjustments and file validations
* Add placeholder for rag fragments
* Update annotations
This commit adds the ability to enable vision for AI personas, allowing them to understand images that are posted in the conversation.
For personas with vision enabled, any images the user has posted will be resized to be within the configured max_pixels limit, base64 encoded and included in the prompt sent to the AI provider.
The persona editor allows enabling/disabling vision and has a dropdown to select the max supported image size (low, medium, high). Vision is disabled by default.
This initial vision support has been tested and implemented with Anthropic's claude-3 models which accept images in a special format as part of the prompt.
Other integrations will need to be updated to support images.
Several specs were added to test the new functionality at the persona, prompt building and API layers.
- Gemini is omitted, pending API support for Gemini 1.5. Current Gemini bot is not performing well, adding images is unlikely to make it perform any better.
- Open AI is omitted, vision support on GPT-4 it limited in that the API has no tool support when images are enabled so we would need to full back to a different prompting technique, something that would add lots of complexity

This allows users to share a static page of an AI conversation with
the rest of the world.
By default this feature is disabled, it is enabled by turning on
ai_bot_allow_public_sharing via site settings
Precautions are taken when sharing
1. We make a carbonite copy
2. We minimize work generating page
3. We limit to 100 interactions
4. Many security checks - including disallowing if there is a mix
of users in the PM.
* Bonus commit, large PRs like this PR did not work with github tool
large objects would destroy context

1. Personas are now optionally mentionable, meaning that you can mention them either from public topics or PMs
- Mentioning from PMs helps "switch" persona mid conversation, meaning if you want to look up sites setting you can invoke the site setting bot, or if you want to generate an image you can invoke dall e
- Mentioning outside of PMs allows you to inject a bot reply in a topic trivially
- We also add the support for max_context_posts this allow you to limit the amount of context you feed in, which can help control costs
2. Add support for a "random picker" tool that can be used to pick random numbers
3. Clean up routing ai_personas -> ai-personas
4. Add Max Context Posts so users can control how much history a persona can consume (this is important for mentionable personas)

This PR introduces 3 things:
1. Fake bot that can be used on local so you can test LLMs, to enable on dev use:
SiteSetting.ai_bot_enabled_chat_bots = "fake"
2. More elegant smooth streaming of progress on LLM completion
This leans on JavaScript to buffer and trickle llm results through. It also amends it so the progress dot is much
more consistently rendered
3. It fixes the Claude dialect
Claude needs newlines **exactly** at the right spot, amended so it is happy

Previous to this change it was very hard to tell if completion was
stuck or not.
This introduces a "dot" that follows the completion and starts
flashing after 5 seconds.

Personas now support providing options for commands.
This PR introduces a single option "base_query" for the SearchCommand. When supplied all searches the persona will perform will also include the pre-supplied filter.
This can allow personas to search a subset of the forum (such as documentation)
This system is extensible we can add options to any command trivially.
Introduces a UI to manage customizable personas (admin only feature)
Part of the change was some extensive internal refactoring:
- AIBot now has a persona set in the constructor, once set it never changes
- Command now takes in bot as a constructor param, so it has the correct persona and is not generating AIBot objects on the fly
- Added a .prettierignore file, due to the way ALE is configured in nvim it is a pre-req for prettier to work
- Adds a bunch of validations on the AIPersona model, system personas (artist/creative etc...) are all seeded. We now ensure
- name uniqueness, and only allow certain properties to be touched for system personas.
- (JS note) the client side design takes advantage of nested routes, the parent route for personas gets all the personas via this.store.findAll("ai-persona") then child routes simply reach into this model to find a particular persona.
- (JS note) data is sideloaded into the ai-persona model the meta property supplied from the controller, resultSetMeta
- This removes ai_bot_enabled_personas and ai_bot_enabled_chat_commands, both should be controlled from the UI on a per persona basis
- Fixes a long standing bug in token accounting ... we were doing to_json.length instead of to_json.to_s.length
- Amended it so {commands} are always inserted at the end unconditionally, no need to add it to the template of the system message as it just confuses things
- Adds a concept of required_commands to stock personas, these are commands that must be configured for this stock persona to show up.
- Refactored tests so we stop requiring inference_stubs, it was very confusing to need it, added to plugin.rb for now which at least is clearer
- Migrates the persona selector to gjs

Also fixes it so users without bot in header can send it messages.
Previous to this change we would seed all bots with database seeds.
This lead to lots of confusion for people who do not enable ai bot.
Instead:
1. We do not seed any bots **until** user enables the ai_bot_enabled setting
2. If it is disabled we will
a. If no messages were created by bot - delete it
b. Otherwise we will deactivate account
This splits out a bunch of code that used to live inside bots
into a dedicated concept called a Persona.
This allows us to start playing with multiple personas for the bot
Ships with:
artist - for making images
sql helper - for helping with data explorer
general - for everything and anything
Also includes a few fixes that make the generic LLM function implementation more robust
* FEATURE: optional warning attached to all AI bot conversations
This commit introduces `ai_bot_enable_chat_warning` which can be used
to warn people prior to starting a chat with the bot.
In particular this is useful if moderators are regularly reading chat
transcripts as it sets expectations early.
By default this is disabled.
Also:
- Stops making ajax call prior to opening composer
- Hides PM title when starting a bot PM

Previously we were not using using HeaderPanel for drop down, which caused
it not to properly act like a header panel.
- Not styled right
- Not hidden when other buttons clicked
Etc...
Header is sadly full of legacy so this is somewhat hacky weaving widgets.
* FEATURE: Less friction for starting a conversation with an AI bot.
This PR adds a new header icon as a shortcut to start a conversation with one of our AI Bots. After clicking and selecting one from the dropdown menu, we'll open the composer with some fields already filled (recipients and title).
If you leave the title as is, we'll queue a job after five minutes to update it using a bot suggestion.

This module lets you chat with our GPT bot inside a PM. The bot only replies to members of the groups listed on the ai_bot_allowed_groups setting and only if you invite it to participate in the PM.
