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.
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
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
* 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
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.
* REFACTOR: Represent generic prompts with an Object.
* Adds a bit more validation for clarity
* Rewrite bot title prompt and fix quirk handling

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
* 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
Previous to this changeset we used a custom system for tools/command
support for Anthropic.
We defined commands by using !command as a signal to execute it
Following Anthropic Claude 2.1, there is an official supported syntax (beta)
for tools execution.
eg:
```
+ <function_calls>
+ <invoke>
+ <tool_name>image</tool_name>
+ <parameters>
+ <prompts>
+ [
+ "an oil painting",
+ "a cute fluffy orange",
+ "3 apple's",
+ "a cat"
+ ]
+ </prompts>
+ </parameters>
+ </invoke>
+ </function_calls>
```
This implements the spec per Anthropic, it should be stable enough
to also work on other LLMs.
Keep in mind that OpenAI is not impacted here at all, as it has its
own custom system for function calls.
Additionally:
- Fixes the title system prompt so it works with latest Anthropic
- Uses new spec for "system" messages by Anthropic
- Tweak forum helper persona to guide Anthropic a tiny be better
Overall results are pretty awesome and Anthropic Claude performs
really well now on Discourse
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

- New AiPersona model which can store custom personas
- Persona are restricted via group security
- They can contain custom system messages
- They can support a list of commands optionally
To avoid expensive DB calls in the serializer a Multisite friendly Hash was introduced (which can be expired on transaction commit)
This adds a new creative persona that has access to the underlying
model and no external integrations.
It allows people to use Claude/GPT models in a Discourse agnostic
way.
* FIX: Made bot more robust
This is a collection of small fixes
- Display "Searching for: ..." while searching instead of showing found 0 results.
- Only allow 5 commands in lang chain - 6 feels like too much
- On the 5th command stop informing the engine about functions, so it is forced to complete
- Add another 30 tokens of buffer and explain why
- Typo in command prompt

The researcher persona has access to Google and can perform
various internet research tasks. At the moment it can not read
web pages, but that is under consideration
This refactor changes it so we only include minimal data in the
system prompt which leaves us lots of tokens for specific searches
The new search command allows us to pull in settings on demand
Descriptions are include in short search results, and names only
in longer results
Also:
* In dev it is important to tell when calls are made to open ai
this adds a console log to increase awareness around token usage
* PERF: stop counting tokens so often
This changes it so we only count tokens once per response
Previously each time we heard back from open ai we would count
tokens, leading to uneeded delays
* bug fix, commands may reach in for tokenizer
* add logging to console for anthropic calls as well
* Update lib/shared/inference/openai_completions.rb

Also adds ai_bot_enabled_personas so admins can tweak which stock
personas are enabled.
The new persona has a full listing of all site settings and is
able to get context for each setting.
This means you can ask it to search through settings for something
relevant.
Security wise there is no access to actual configuration of settings
just to the names / description and implementation.
Previously this was part of the forum helper persona however it
just clashes too much with other behaviors, isolating it makes
it far more powerful.
* sneaking this one in, user_emails is a non obvious table in our
structure.
usually one would assume users has emails so the clarifies a bit
better. plus it is a very common table to hit.
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
