The structured output JSON comes embedded inside the API response, which is also a JSON. Since we have to parse the response to process it, any control characters inside the structured output are unescaped into regular characters, leading to invalid JSON and breaking during parsing. This change adds a retry mechanism that escapes
the string again if parsing fails, preventing the parser from breaking on malformed input and working around this issue.
For example:
```
original = '{ "a": "{\\"key\\":\\"value with \\n newline\\"}" }'
JSON.parse(original) => { "a" => "{\"key\":\"value with \n newline\"}" }
# At this point, the inner JSON string contains an actual newline.
```
This change fixes two bugs and adds a safeguard.
The first issue is that the schema Gemini expected differed from the one sent, resulting in 400 errors when performing completions.
The second issue was that creating a new persona won't define a method
for `response_format`. This has to be explicitly defined when we wrap it inside the Persona class. Also, There was a mismatch between the default value and what we stored in the DB. Some parts of the code expected symbols as keys and others as strings.
Finally, we add a safeguard when, even if asked to, the model refuses to reply with a valid JSON. In this case, we are making a best-effort to recover and stream the raw response.
* DEV: Use structured responses for summaries
* Fix system specs
* Make response_format a first class citizen and update endpoints to support it
* Response format can be specified in the persona
* lint
* switch to jsonb and make column nullable
* Reify structured output chunks. Move JSON parsing to the depths of Completion
* Switch to JsonStreamingTracker for partial JSON parsing
This re-implements tool support in DiscourseAi::Completions::Llm #generate
Previously tool support was always returned via XML and it would be the responsibility of the caller to parse XML
New implementation has the endpoints return ToolCall objects.
Additionally this simplifies the Llm endpoint interface and gives it more clarity. Llms must implement
decode, decode_chunk (for streaming)
It is the implementers responsibility to figure out how to decode chunks, base no longer implements. To make this easy we ship a flexible json decoder which is easy to wire up.
Also (new)
Better debugging for PMs, we now have a next / previous button to see all the Llm messages associated with a PM
Token accounting is fixed for vllm (we were not correctly counting tokens)
* 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.
Add native Cohere tool support
- Introduce CohereTools class for tool translation and result processing
- Update Command dialect to integrate with CohereTools
- Modify Cohere endpoint to support passing tools and processing tool calls
- Add spec for testing tool triggering with Cohere endpoint
- 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.
