The new `/admin/plugins/discourse-ai/ai-personas/stream-reply.json` was added.
This endpoint streams data direct from a persona and can be used
to access a persona from remote systems leaving a paper trail in
PMs about the conversation that happened
This endpoint is only accessible to admins.

* FIX: Llm selector / forced tools / search tool
This fixes a few issues:
1. When search was not finding any semantic results we would break the tool
2. Gemin / Anthropic models did not implement forced tools previously despite it being an API option
3. Mechanics around displaying llm selector were not right. If you disabled LLM selector server side persona PM did not work correctly.
4. Disabling native tools for anthropic model moved out of a site setting. This deliberately does not migrate cause this feature is really rare to need now, people who had it set probably did not need it.
5. Updates anthropic model names to latest release
* linting
* fix a couple of tests I missed
* clean up conditional
A new feature_context json column was added to ai_api_audit_logs
This allows us to store rich json like context on any LLM request
made.
This new field now stores automation id and name.
Additionally allows llm_triage to specify maximum number of tokens
This means that you can limit the cost of llm triage by scanning only
first N tokens of a post.
Splits persona permissions so you can allow a persona on:
- chat dms
- personal messages
- topic mentions
- chat channels
(any combination is allowed)
Previously we did not have this flexibility.
Additionally, adds the ability to "tether" a language model to a persona so it will always be used by the persona. This allows people to use a cheaper language model for one group of people and more expensive one for other people
This introduces another configuration that allows operators to
limit the amount of interactions with forced tool usage.
Forced tools are very handy in initial llm interactions, but as
conversation progresses they can hinder by slowing down stuff
and adding confusion.
This adds chain halting (ability to terminate llm chain in a tool)
and the ability to create uploads in a tool
Together this lets us integrate custom image generators into a
custom tool.
* FEATURE: allows forced LLM tool use
Sometimes we need to force LLMs to use tools, for example in RAG
like use cases we may want to force an unconditional search.
The new framework allows you backend to force tool usage.
Front end commit to follow
* UI for forcing tools now works, but it does not react right
* fix bugs
* fix tests, this is now ready for review
This allows custom tools access to uploads and sophisticated searches using embedding.
It introduces:
- A shared front end for listing and uploading files (shared with personas)
- Backend implementation of index.search function within a custom tool.
Custom tools now may search through uploaded files
function invoke(params) {
return index.search(params.query)
}
This means that RAG implementers now may preload tools with knowledge and have high fidelity over
the search.
The search function support
specifying max results
specifying a subset of files to search (from uploads)
Also
- Improved documentation for tools (when creating a tool a preamble explains all the functionality)
- uploads were a bit finicky, fixed an edge case where the UI would not show them as updated
Polymorphic RAG means that we will be able to access RAG fragments both from AiPersona and AiCustomTool
In turn this gives us support for richer RAG implementations.
* FEATURE: LLM Triage support for systemless models.
This change adds support for OSS models without support for system messages. LlmTriage's system message field is no longer mandatory. We now send the post contents in a separate user message.
* Models using Ollama can also disable system prompts
Creating a new model, either manually or from presets, doesn't initialize the `provider_params` object, meaning their custom params won't persist.
Additionally, this change adds some validations for Bedrock params, which are mandatory, and a clear message when a completion fails because we cannot build the URL.
- Validate fields to reduce the chance of breaking features by a misconfigured model.
- Fixed a bug where the URL might get deleted during an update.
- Display a warning when a model is currently in use.
* DEV: Remove old code now that features rely on LlmModels.
* Hide old settings and migrate persona llm overrides
* Remove shadowing special URL + seeding code. Use srv:// prefix instead.
* Seeding the SRV-backed model should happen inside an initializer.
* Keep the model up to date when the hidden setting changes.
* Use the correct Mixtral model name and fix previous data migration.
* URL validation should trigger only when we attempt to update it.
1. Repairs the identity on the summary table, we migrated data without resetting it.
2. Adds an index into ai_summary table to match expected retrieval pattern
Follow up to b863ddc94b
Ruby:
* Validate `summary` (the column is `not null`)
* Fix `name` validation (the column has `max_length` 100)
* Fix table annotations
* Accept missing `parameter` attributes (`required, `enum`, `enum_values`)
JS:
* Use native classes
* Don't use ember's array extensions
* Add explicit service injections
* Correct class names
* Use `||=` operator
* Use `store` service to create records
* Remove unused service injections
* Extract consts
* Group actions together
* Use `async`/`await`
* Use `withEventValue`
* Sort html attributes
* Use DButtons `@label` arg
* Use `input` elements instead of Ember's `Input` component (same w/ textarea)
* Remove `btn-default` class (automatically applied by DButton)
* Don't mix `I18n.t` and `i18n` in the same template
* Don't track props that aren't used in a template
* Correct invalid `target.value` code
* Remove unused/invalid `this.parameter`/`onChange` code
* Whitespace
* Use the new service import `inject as service` -> `service`
* Use `Object.entries()`
* Add missing i18n strings
* Fix an error in `addEnumValue` (calling `pushObject` on `undefined`)
* Use `TrackedArray`/`TrackedObject`
* Transform tool `parameters` keys (`enumValues` -> `enum_values`)
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.

Having this as a callback prevents deploys of sites with a vLLM SRV configured and pending migrations. Additionally, this fixes a bug where we didn't delete/deactivate the companion user after deleting an LLM.
Previously, we stored request parameters like the OpenAI organization and Bedrock's access key and region as site settings. This change stores them in the `llm_models` table instead, letting us drop more settings while also becoming more flexible.
* FEATURE: LLM presets for model creation
Previous to this users needed to look up complicated settings
when setting up models.
This introduces and extensible preset system with Google/OpenAI/Anthropic
presets.
This will cover all the most common LLMs, we can always add more as
we go.
Additionally:
- Proper support for Anthropic Claude Sonnet 3.5
- Stop blurring api keys when navigating away - this made it very complex to reuse keys
Previously read tool only had access to public topics, this allows
access to all topics user has access to, if admin opts for the option
Also
- Fixes VLLM migration
- Display which llms have bot enabled
* DRAFT: Create AI Bot users dynamically and support custom LlmModels
* Get user associated to llm_model
* Track enabled bots with attribute
* Don't store bot username. Minor touches to migrate default values in settings
* Handle scenario where vLLM uses a SRV record
* Made 3.5-turbo-16k the default version so we can remove hack
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.

- Introduce new support for GPT4o (automation / bot / summary / helper)
- Properly account for token counts on OpenAI models
- Track feature that was used when generating AI completions
- Remove custom llm support for summarization as we need better interfaces to control registration and de-registration
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
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
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.
* 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 commit uses a new plugin modifier introduced in https://github.com/discourse/discourse/pull/26508
to mark all uploads as _not_ secure in shared PM AI conversations.
This is so images created by the AI bot (or uploaded by the user)
do not end up as broken URLs because of the security requirements
around them.
This relies on the UpdateTopicUploadSecurity job in core as well,
which is fired when an AI conversation is shared or deleted.
- 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.
* 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 ...
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
