There are still some limitations to which models we can support with the `LlmModel` class. This will enable support for Llama3 while we sort those out.
This PR introduces the concept of "LlmModel" as a new way to quickly add new LLM models without making any code changes. We are releasing this first version and will add incremental improvements, so expect changes.
The AI Bot can't fully take advantage of this feature as users are hard-coded. We'll fix this in a separate PR.s
When the bot is @mentioned, we need to be a lot more careful
about constructing context otherwise bot gets ultra confused.
This changes multiple things:
1. We were omitting all thread first messages (fixed)
2. Include thread title (if available) in context
3. Construct context in a clearer way separating user request from data
Both endpoints provide OpenAI-compatible servers. The only difference is that Vllm doesn't support passing tools as a separate parameter. Even if the tool param is supported, it ultimately relies on the model's ability to handle native functions, which is not the case with the models we have today.
As a part of this change, we are dropping support for StableBeluga/Llama2 models. They don't have a chat_template, meaning the new API can translate them.
These changes let us remove some of our existing dialects and are a first step in our plan to support any LLM by defining them as data-driven concepts.
I rewrote the "translate" method to use a template method and extracted the tool support strategies into its classes to simplify the code.
Finally, these changes bring support for Ollama when running in dev mode. It only works with Mistral for now, but it will change soon..
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
A recent change meant that llm instance got cached internally, repeat calls
to inference would cache data in Endpoint object leading model to
failures.
Both Gemini and Open AI expect a clean endpoint object cause they
set data.
This amends internals to make sure llm.generate will always operate
on clean objects
This commit introduces a new feature for AI Personas called the "Question Consolidator LLM". The purpose of the Question Consolidator is to consolidate a user's latest question into a self-contained, context-rich question before querying the vector database for relevant fragments. This helps improve the quality and relevance of the retrieved fragments.
Previous to this change we used the last 10 interactions, this is not ideal cause the RAG would "lock on" to an answer.
EG:
- User: how many cars are there in europe
- Model: detailed answer about cars in europe including the term car and vehicle many times
- User: Nice, what about trains are there in the US
In the above example "trains" and "US" becomes very low signal given there are pages and pages talking about cars and europe. This mean retrieval is sub optimal.
Instead, we pass the history to the "question consolidator", it would simply consolidate the question to "How many trains are there in the United States", which would make it fare easier for the vector db to find relevant content.
The llm used for question consolidator can often be less powerful than the model you are talking to, we recommend using lighter weight and fast models cause the task is very simple. This is configurable from the persona ui.
This PR also removes support for {uploads} placeholder, this is too complicated to get right and we want freedom to shift RAG implementation.
Key changes:
1. Added a new `question_consolidator_llm` column to the `ai_personas` table to store the LLM model used for question consolidation.
2. Implemented the `QuestionConsolidator` module which handles the logic for consolidating the user's latest question. It extracts the relevant user and model messages from the conversation history, truncates them if needed to fit within the token limit, and generates a consolidated question prompt.
3. Updated the `Persona` class to use the Question Consolidator LLM (if configured) when crafting the RAG fragments prompt. It passes the conversation context to the consolidator to generate a self-contained question.
4. Added UI elements in the AI Persona editor to allow selecting the Question Consolidator LLM. Also made some UI tweaks to conditionally show/hide certain options based on persona configuration.
5. Wrote unit tests for the QuestionConsolidator module and updated existing persona tests to cover the new functionality.
This feature enables AI Personas to better understand the context and intent behind a user's question by consolidating the conversation history into a single, focused question. This can lead to more relevant and accurate responses from the AI assistant.
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
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.
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.
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 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
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
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: 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 :)
The Faraday adapter and `FinalDestionation::HTTP` will protect us from admin-initiated SSRF attacks when interacting with the external services powering this plugin features.:
This PR adds a new feature where you can generate captions for images in the composer using AI.

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)

* 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
- 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
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

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

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.
* 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
---------

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
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.
We must ensure we can isolate titles, and the models sometimes ignore the example we give them.
Additionally, anons can generate HyDE posts, so we need to check if user is nil when attempting to log requests.
* Revert "FIX: We don't need to prepend anthropic. to bedrock models (#308)"
This reverts commit 8a01751991.
* FIX: Bedrock uses slightly different model names
* DEV: One LLM abstraction to rule them all
* REFACTOR: HyDE search uses new LLM abstraction
* REFACTOR: Summarization uses the LLM abstraction
* Updated documentation and made small fixes. Remove Bedrock claude-2 restriction
