Previously the examples constructed from chat history used "Khoj" as
the agent's name but all 3 prompts using the func used static examples
with "AI:" as the pertinent agent's name
- Add example to read khoj.dev website for up-to-date info to setup,
use khoj, discover khoj features etc.
- Online search should use site: and after: google search operators
- Show example of adding the after: date filter to google search
- Give local event lookup example using user's current location in
query
- Remove unused select search content type prompt
### Major
- Read web pages in parallel to improve chat response time
- Read web pages directly when Olostep proxy not setup
- Include search results & web page content in online context for chat response
### Minor
- Simplify, modularize and add type hints to online search functions
Previously if a web page was read for a sub-query, only the extracted
web page content was provided as context for the given sub-query. But
the google results themselves have relevant snippets. So include them
- Simplify content arg to `extract_relevant_info' function. Validate,
clean the content arg inside the `extract_relevant_info' function
- Extract `search_with_google' function outside the parent function
- Call the parent function a more appropriate `search_online' instead
of `search_with_google'
- Simplify the `search_with_google' function using list comprehension.
Drop empty search result fields from chat model context for response
to reduce cost and response latency
- No need to show stacktrace when unable to read webpage, basic error
is enough
- Add type hints to online search functions to catch issues with mypy
- Time reading webpage, extract info from webpage steps for perf
analysis
- Deduplicate webpages to read gathered across separate google
searches
- Use aiohttp to make API requests non-blocking, pair with asyncio to
parallelize all the online search webpage read and extract calls
- Trigger
SentenceTransformer Cross Encoder models now run fast on GPU enabled machines, including Mac ARM devices since UKPLab/sentence-transformers#2463
- Details
- Use cross-encoder to rerank search results by default on GPU machines and when using an inference server
- Only call search API when pause in typing search query on web, desktop apps
Wait for 300ms since stop typing before calling search API.
This smooths out UI jitter when rendering search results, especially
now that we're reranking for every search query on GPU enabled devices
Emacs already has 300ms debounce time. More convoluted to add
debounce time to Obsidian search modal, so not updating that yet
Latest sentence-transformer package uses GPU for cross-encoder. This
makes it fast enough to enable reranking on machines with GPU.
Enabling search reranking by default allows (at least) users with GPUs
to side-step learning the UI affordance to rerank results
(i.e hitting Cmd/Ctrl-Enter or ENTER).
### Issue
Previously deleting a chat session from the side panel on desktop, web app would sometimes result in also creating a new chat session
### Fix
`get_conversation_by_user' shouldn't return new conversation if
conversation with requested id not found.
It should only return new conversation if no specific conversation
is requested and no conversations found for user at all
### Miscellaneous Improvements
- Chat history load should be logged as call to that chat_history api,
not the "chat" api
- Show status updates of clearing conversation history in chat input
- Simplify web, desktop client code by removing unnecessary new variables
### Repro
- Delete a new chat, this calls loadChat via window.onload which
calls server /chat/history API endpoint with conversationId set to
that of just deleted conversation sporadically
The call to GET chat/history API with conversationId set occurs
when window.onload triggers before the conversationId is deleted
by the delete button after the DELETE /chat/history API call (via race)
- In such a scenario, get_conversation_by_user called by
chat/history API with conversationId of deleted conversation
returns a new conversation
