For quite a few weeks now, some times, when running function calls
on Anthropic we would get a "stray" - "calls" line.
This has been enormously frustrating!
I have been unable to find the source of the bug so instead decoupled
the implementation and create a very clear "function call normalizer"
This new class is extensively tested and guards against the type of
edge cases we saw pre-normalizer.
This also simplifies the implementation of "endpoint" which no longer
needs to handle all this complex logic.
- Updated AI Bot to only support Gemini 1.5 (used to support 1.0) - 1.0 was removed cause it is not appropriate for Bot usage
- Summaries and automation can now lean on Gemini 1.5 pro
- Amazon added support for Claude 3 Opus, added internal support for it on bedrock
* 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.
Just having the word JSON can confuse models when we expect them
to deal solely in XML
Instead provide an example of how string arrays should be returned
Technically the tool framework supports int arrays and more, but
our current implementation only does string arrays.
Also tune the prompt construction not to give any tips about arrays
if none exist
- Added Cohere Command models (Command, Command Light, Command R, Command R Plus) to the available model list
- Added a new site setting `ai_cohere_api_key` for configuring the Cohere API key
- Implemented a new `DiscourseAi::Completions::Endpoints::Cohere` class to handle interactions with the Cohere API, including:
- Translating request parameters to the Cohere API format
- Parsing Cohere API responses
- Supporting streaming and non-streaming completions
- Supporting "tools" which allow the model to call back to discourse to lookup additional information
- Implemented a new `DiscourseAi::Completions::Dialects::Command` class to translate between the generic Discourse AI prompt format and the Cohere Command format
- Added specs covering the new Cohere endpoint and dialect classes
- Updated `DiscourseAi::AiBot::Bot.guess_model` to map the new Cohere model to the appropriate bot user
In summary, this PR adds support for using the Cohere Command family of models with the Discourse AI plugin. It handles configuring API keys, making requests to the Cohere API, and translating between Discourse's generic prompt format and Cohere's specific format. Thorough test coverage was added for the new functionality.
BAAI/bge-m3 is an interesting model, that is multilingual and with a
context size of 8192. Even with a 16x larger context, it's only 4x slower
to compute it's embeddings on the worst case scenario.
Also includes a minor refactor of the rake task, including setting model
and concurrency levels when running the backfill task.
Open AI just released gpt-4-turbo (with vision)
This change stops using the old preview model and swaps with the
officially released gpt-4-turbo
To come is an implementation of vision.
It used to fetch it from /site.json, but /categories.json is the more
appropriate one. This one also implements pagination, so we have to do
one request per page.
* FEATURE: Add metadata support for RAG
You may include non indexed metadata in the RAG document by using
[[metadata ....]]
This information is attached to all the text below and provided to
the retriever.
This allows for RAG to operate within a rich amount of contexts
without getting lost
Also:
- re-implemented chunking algorithm so it streams
- moved indexing to background low priority queue
* Baran gem no longer required.
* tokenizers is on 4.4 ... upgrade it ...
it is close in performance to GPT 4 at a fraction of the cost,
nice to add it to the mix.
Also improves a test case to simulate streaming, I am hunting for
the "calls" word that is jumping into function calls and can't quite
find it.
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 pull request makes several improvements and additions to the GitHub-related tools and personas in the `discourse-ai` repository:
1. It adds the `WebBrowser` tool to the `Researcher` persona, allowing the AI to visit web pages, retrieve HTML content, extract the main content, and convert it to plain text.
2. It updates the `GithubFileContent`, `GithubPullRequestDiff`, and `GithubSearchCode` tools to handle HTTP responses more robustly (introducing size limits).
3. It refactors the `send_http_request` method in the `Tool` class to follow redirects when specified, and to read the response body in chunks to avoid memory issues with large responses. (only for WebBrowser)
4. It updates the system prompt for the `Researcher` persona to provide more detailed guidance on when to use Google search vs web browsing, and how to optimize tool usage and reduce redundant requests.
5. It adds a new `web_browser_spec.rb` file with tests for the `WebBrowser` tool, covering various scenarios like handling different HTML structures and following redirects.
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

report runner and llm triage used different paths to figure out
underlying model name, unify so we use the same path.
fixes claude 3 based models on llm triage
Prompt was steering incorrectly into the wrong language.
New prompt attempts to be more concise and clear and provides
better guidance about size of summary and how to format it.
We were only suppressing non mentions, ones that become spans.
@sam in the test was not resolving to a mention cause the user
did not exist.
depends on: https://github.com/discourse/discourse/pull/26253 for tests to pass.
- Stop replying as bot, when human replies to another human
- Reply as correct persona when replying directly to a persona
- Fix paper cut where suppressing notifications was not doing so
This PR consolidates the implements new Anthropic Messages interface for Bedrock Claude endpoints and adds support for the new Claude 3 models (haiku, opus, sonnet).
Key changes:
- Renamed `AnthropicMessages` and `Anthropic` endpoint classes into a single `Anthropic` class (ditto for ClaudeMessages -> Claude)
- Updated `AwsBedrock` endpoints to use the new `/messages` API format for all Claude models
- Added `claude-3-haiku`, `claude-3-opus` and `claude-3-sonnet` model support in both Anthropic and AWS Bedrock endpoints
- Updated specs for the new consolidated endpoints and Claude 3 model support
This refactor removes support for old non messages API which has been deprecated by anthropic
* FEATURE: allow suppression of notifications from report generation
Previously we needed to do this by hand, unfortunately this uses up
too many tokens and is very hard to discover.
New option means that we can trivially disable notifications without
needing any prompt engineering.
* URI.parse is safer, use it
* FIX: Handle unicode on tokenizer
Our fast track code broke when strings had characters who are longer in tokens than
in UTF-8.
Admins can set `DISCOURSE_AI_STRICT_TOKEN_COUNTING: true` in app.yml to ensure token counting is strict, even if slower.

* FIX: don't show share conversation incorrectly
- ai_persona_name can be null vs undefined leading to button showing up where it should not
- do not allow sharing of conversations where user is sending PMs to self
* remove erroneous code
* avoid query
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

Adds support for "name" on functions which can be used for tool calls
For function calls we need to keep track of id/name and previously
we only supported either
Also attempts to improve sql helper
This PR adds AI semantic search to the search pop available on every page.
It depends on several new and optional settings, like per post embeddings and a reranker model, so this is an experimental endeavour.

1. Fix input fields in AI persona editor and make GitHub tool authentication optional
2. AI persona editor improvements and tool GitHub access token check
This pull request makes a few improvements:
- Adds `lang="en"` to number input fields in the AI persona editor to prevent localization issues
- Adds `step="any"` to allow fractional values for temperature and top_p settings
- Makes GitHub tool authentication contingent on `ai_bot_github_access_token` site setting being present
see: https://meta.discourse.org/t/ai-bot-personas-don-t-accept-decimals-for-temperature-top-p/298243/7
Introduces a new AI Bot persona called 'GitHub Helper' which is specialized in assisting with GitHub-related tasks and questions. It includes the following key changes:
- Implements the GitHub Helper persona class with its system prompt and available tools
- Adds three new AI Bot tools for GitHub interactions:
- github_file_content: Retrieves content of files from a GitHub repository
- github_pull_request_diff: Retrieves the diff for a GitHub pull request
- github_search_code: Searches for code in a GitHub repository
- Updates the AI Bot dialects to support the new GitHub tools
- Implements multiple function calls for standard tool dialect
Chat thread replies draft trigger the thread_created event, which we relied on
to trigger the AI generated title. Because of that we now will use the noisier
chat_message_created event, and manually check for thread and replies existence.
See https://github.com/discourse/discourse/pull/26033
This provides new support for messages API from Claude.
It is required for latest model access.
Also corrects implementation of function calls.
* Fix message interleving
* fix broken spec
* add new models to automation
- FIX: only update system attributes when updating system persona
- FIX: update participant count by hand so bot messages show in inbox
Co-authored-by: Joffrey JAFFEUX <j.jaffeux@gmail.com>
* FIX: support multiple tool calls
Prior to this change we had a hard limit of 1 tool call per llm
round trip. This meant you could not google multiple things at
once or perform searches across two tools.
Also:
- Hint when Google stops working
- Log topic_id / post_id when performing completions
* Also track id for title
Previous to this fix if a tool call ever streamed a SPACE alone,
we would eat it and ignore it, breaking params
Also fixes some tests to ensure they are actually called :)
* DEV: improve internal design of ai persona and bug fix
- Fixes bug where OpenAI could not describe images
- Fixes bug where mentionable personas could not be mentioned unless overarching bot was enabled
- Improves internal design of playground and bot to allow better for non "bot" users
- Allow PMs directly to persona users (previously bot user would also have to be in PM)
- Simplify internal code

* FEATURE: AI helper support in non English languages
This attempts some prompt engineering to coerce AI helper to answer
in the appropriate language.
Note mileage will vary, in testing GPT-4 produces the best results
GPT-3.5 can return OKish results.
* Extend non english support for GPT-4V image caption
* Update db/fixtures/ai_helper/603_completion_prompts.rb

The Faraday adapter and `FinalDestionation::HTTP` will protect us from admin-initiated SSRF attacks when interacting with the external services powering this plugin features.:
Persona users are still bots, but we were not properly accounting
for it and share icon was not showing up.
This depends on a core change that adds .topic to transformed posts
This PR adds a new feature where you can generate captions for images in the composer using AI.
---------
Co-authored-by: Rafael Silva <xfalcox@gmail.com>
This persona searches Discourse Meta for help with Discourse and
points users at relevant posts.
It is somewhat similar to using "Forum Helper" on meta, with the
notable difference that we can not lean on semantic search so using
some prompt engineering we try to keep it simple.
Affects the following settings:
ai_toxicity_groups_bypass
ai_helper_allowed_groups
ai_helper_custom_prompts_allowed_groups
post_ai_helper_allowed_groups
This turns off client: true for these group-based settings,
because there is no guarantee that the current user gets all
their group memberships serialized to the client. Better to check
server-side first.
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)

* FIX: Better AI chat thread titles
- Fix quote removal when multi-line
- Use XML tags for better LLM output parsing
- Use stop_sequences for faster and less wasteful LLM calls
- Adds truncation as the last line of defense
* FEATURE: allow personas to supply top_p and temperature params
Code assistance generally are more focused at a lower temperature
This amends it so SQL Helper runs at 0.2 temperature vs the more
common default across LLMs of 1.0.
Reduced temperature leads to more focused, concise and predictable
answers for the SQL Helper
* fix tests
* This is not perfect, but far better than what we do today
Instead of fishing for
1. Draft sequence
2. Draft body
We skip (2), this means the composer "only" needs 1 http request to
open, we also want to eliminate (1) but it is a bit of a trickier
core change, may figure out how to pull it off (defer it to first draft save)
Value of bot drafts < value of opening bot conversations really fast
When bedrock rate limits it returns a 200 BUT also returns a JSON
document with the error.
Previously we had no special case here so we complained about nil
New code properly logs the problem
1. on failure we were queuing a job to generate embeddings, it had the wrong params. This is both fixed and covered in a test.
2. backfill embedding in the order of bumped_at, so newest content is embedded first, cover with a test
3. add a safeguard for hidden site setting that only allows batches of 50k in an embedding job run
Previously old embeddings were updated in a random order, this changes it so we update in a consistent order
- Allow users to supply top_p and temperature values, which means people can fine tune randomness
- Fix bad localization string
- Fix bad remapping of max tokens in gemini
- Add support for top_p as a general param to llms
- Amend system prompt so persona stops treating a user as an adversary
* UX: Validations to Llm-backed features (except AI Bot)
This change is part of an ongoing effort to prevent enabling a broken feature due to lack of configuration. We also want to explicit which provider we are going to use. For example, Claude models are available through AWS Bedrock and Anthropic, but the configuration differs.
Validations are:
* You must choose a model before enabling the feature.
* You must turn off the feature before setting the model to blank.
* You must configure each model settings before being able to select it.
* Add provider name to summarization options
* vLLM can technically support same models as HF
* Check we can talk to the selected model
* Check for Bedrock instead of anthropic as a site could have both creds setup
* FEATURE: add support for new OpenAI embedding models
This adds support for just released text_embedding_3_small and large
Note, we have not yet implemented truncation support which is a
new API feature. (triggered using dimensions)
* Tiny side fix, recalc bots when ai is enabled or disabled
* FIX: downsample to 2000 items per vector which is a pgvector limitation
We were not validating input for generate leading to 2 tests not
failing correctly despite functionality being broken.
This ensures that input is validated,and in turn fixes the broken
specs
When you trim a prompt we never want to have a state where there
is a "tool" reply without a corresponding tool call, it makes no
sense
Also
- GPT-4-Turbo is 128k, fix that
- Claude was not preserving username in prompt
- We were throwing away unicode usernames instead of adding to
message
Account properly for function calls, don't stream through <details> blocks
- Rush cooked content back to client
- Wait longer (up to 60 seconds) before giving up on streaming
- Clean up message bus channels so we don't have leftover data
- Make ai streamer much more reusable and much easier to read
- If buffer grows quickly, rush update so you are not artificially waiting
- Refine prompt interface
- Fix lost system message when prompt gets long
* REFACTOR: Represent generic prompts with an Object.
* Adds a bit more validation for clarity
* Rewrite bot title prompt and fix quirk handling

Fixes a regression from 140359c which caused we to set this globally based on post count, rendering the cost of an index scan on the topics table too high and making the planner, correctly, not use the index anymore.
Hopefully https://github.com/pgvector/pgvector/issues/235 lands soon.
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

Followup 2636efcd1b,
whenever ruby code was changed locally this would break
module loading, giving an "uninitialized constant
DiscourseAi::Embeddings::EntryPoint::SemanticRelated" error.
This allows admins to configure services with multiple backends using DNS SRV records. This PR also adds support for shared secret auth via headers for TEI and vLLM endpoints, so they are inline with the other ones.
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.
* FIX: improve bot behavior
- Provide more information to Gemini context post function execution
- Use system prompts for Claude (fixes Dall E)
- Ensure Assistant is properly separated
- Teach Claude to return arrays in JSON vs XML
Also refactors tests so we do not copy tool preamble everywhere
* System msg is claude-2 only. fix typo

We thought Azure's latest API version didn't have tool support yet, but I didn't understand it was complaining about a required field in the tool call message.
* FIX: don't include <details> in context
We need to be careful adding <details> into context of conversations
it can cause LLMs to hallucinate results
* Fix Gemini multi-turn ctx flattening
---------

DALL E command accepts an Array as a tool argument, this was not
parsed correctly by the invoker leading to errors generating
images with DALL E
Side quest ... don't use update! it calls validations and will now
fail due to email validation
It also corrects the syntax around tool support, which was wrong.
Gemini doesn't want us to include messages about previous tool invocations, so I had to shuffle around some code to send the response it generated from those invocations instead. For this, I created the "multi_turn" context, which bundles all the context involved in the interaction.
* DEV: AI bot migration to the Llm pattern.
We added tool and conversation context support to the Llm service in discourse-ai#366, meaning we met all the conditions to migrate this module.
This PR migrates to the new pattern, meaning adding a new bot now requires minimal effort as long as the service supports it. On top of this, we introduce the concept of a "Playground" to separate the PM-specific bits from the completion, allowing us to use the bot in other contexts like chat in the future. Commands are called tools, and we simplified all the placeholder logic to perform updates in a single place, making the flow more one-wayish.
* Followup fixes based on testing
* Cleanup unused inference code
* FIX: text-based tools could be in the middle of a sentence
* GPT-4-turbo support
* Use new LLM API
* FIX: AI helper not working correctly with mixtral
This PR introduces a new function on the generic llm called #generate
This will replace the implementation of completion!
#generate introduces a new way to pass temperature, max_tokens and stop_sequences
Then LLM implementers need to implement #normalize_model_params to
ensure the generic names match the LLM specific endpoint
This also adds temperature and stop_sequences to completion_prompts
this allows for much more robust completion prompts
* port everything over to #generate
* Fix translation
- On anthropic this no longer throws random "This is your translation:"
- On mixtral this actually works
* fix markdown table generation as well
Previously endpoint/base would `+=` decoded_chunk to leftover
This could lead to cases where the leftover buffer had duplicate
previously processed data
Fix ensures we properly skip previously decoded data.
Introduce a Discourse Automation based periodical report. Depends on Discourse Automation.
Report works best with very large context language models such as GPT-4-Turbo and Claude 2.
- Introduces final_insts to generic llm format, for claude to work best it is better to guide the last assistant message (we should add this to other spots as well)
- Adds GPT-4 turbo support to generic llm interface
This PR adds tool support to available LLMs. We'll buffer tool invocations and return them instead of making users of this service parse the response.
It also adds support for conversation context in the generic prompt. It includes bot messages, user messages, and tool invocations, which we'll trim to make sure it doesn't exceed the prompt limit, then translate them to the correct dialect.
Finally, It adds some buffering when reading chunks to handle cases when streaming is extremely slow.:M
This is somewhat experimental, but the context of likes/view/username
can help the llm find out what content is more important or even
common users that produce great content
This inflates the amount of tokens somewhat, but given it is all numbers
and search columns titles are only included once this is not severe
We were limiting to 20 results unconditionally cause we had to make
sure search always fit in an 8k context window.
Models such as GPT 3.5 Turbo (16k) and GPT 4 Turbo / Claude 2.1 (over 150k)
allow us to return a lot more results.
This means we have a much richer understanding cause context is far
larger.
This also allows a persona to tweak this number, in some cases admin
may want to be conservative and save on tokens by limiting results
This also tweaks the `limit` param which GPT-4 liked to set to tell
model only to use it when it needs to (and describes default behavior)
Keep in mind:
- GPT-4 is only going to be fully released next year - so this hardcodes preview model for now
- Fixes streaming bugs which became a big problem with GPT-4 turbo
- Adds Azure endpoing for turbo as well

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.
c.f. de983796e1b66aa2ab039a4fb6e32cec8a65a098
There will soon be additional login_required checks
for Guardian, and the intent of many checks by automated
systems is better fulfilled by using BasicUser, which
simulates a logged in TL0 forum user, rather than an
anon user.
* FEATURE: User sentiment on profile summary page
This introduces a new user stat in a user profile summary page.
It will show either neutral/positive/negative according to the dominant
sentiment in the user last interactions.
The user-stat widget is only rendered for staff.

Previous to this change we relied on explicit loading for a files in Discourse AI.
This had a few downsides:
- Busywork whenever you add a file (an extra require relative)
- We were not keeping to conventions internally ... some places were OpenAI others are OpenAi
- Autoloader did not work which lead to lots of full application broken reloads when developing.
This moves all of DiscourseAI into a Zeitwerk compatible structure.
It also leaves some minimal amount of manual loading (automation - which is loading into an existing namespace that may or may not be there)
To avoid needing /lib/discourse_ai/... we mount a namespace thus we are able to keep /lib pointed at ::DiscourseAi
Various files were renamed to get around zeitwerk rules and minimize usage of custom inflections
Though we can get custom inflections to work it is not worth it, will require a Discourse core patch which means we create a hard dependency.
