- Pass user and calling_url to the scheduled chat too when modifying
params of automation
- Update to use user timezone even when update job via API
- Move timezone string to timezone object calculation into the
schedule automation method
- Previously it was a section in the settings page. Move it to
independent, top-level page to improve visibility of feature
- Calculate crontime from natural language on web client before
sending it to to server for saving new/updated schedule to disk.
- Avoids round-trip of call to chat model
- Convert POST /api/automation API endpoint into a direct request for
automation with query_to_run, subject and schedule provided via the
automation page. This allows more granular control to create automation
- Make the POST automations endpoint more robust; runs validation
checks, normalizes parameters
- Make the config page content use the same top level 3-column layout
as the khoj-header-wrapper
This ensures the content is aligned with heading pane width
- Let cards and other settings sections scale to the width of their
grid element. This utilizes more of the screen space and does it
consistently across the different settings pages
- Create new POST API endpoint to create automations
- Use it in the settings page on the web interface to create
new automations
This simplified managing automations from the setting page by allowing
both delete and create from the same page
- Render crontime string in natural language in message & settings UI
- Show more fields in tasks web config UI
- Add link to the tasks settings page in task scheduled chat response
- Improve task variables names
Rename executing_query to query_to_run. scheduling_query to
scheduling_request
- Make timezone aware scheduling programmatic, instead of asking the
chat model to do the conversion. This removes the need for
scratchpad and may let smaller models handle the task as well
- Make chat model infer subject for email. This should make the
notification email more readable
- Improve email by using subject in email subject, task heading. Move
query to email final paragraph, which is where task metadata should
go
- Using inferred_query directly was brittle (like previous job id)
- And process lock id had a limited size, so wouldn't work for larger
inferred query strings
- Pass timezone string from ipapi to khoj via clients
- Pass this data from web, desktop and obsidian clients to server
- Use user tz to render next run time of scheduled task in user tz
This takes the load of the task scheduling chat actor / prompt from
having to artifically differentiate query to create scheduled task
from a scheduled task run.
- The task scheduling actor was having trouble calculating the
timezone. Giving the actor a scratchpad to improve correctness by
thinking step by step
- Add more examples to reduce chances of the inferred query looping to
create another reminder instead of running the query and sharing
results with user
- Improve task scheduling chat actor test with more tests and
by ensuring unexpected words not present in response
There's a difference between running a scheduled task and notifying
the user about the results of running the scheduled task.
Decide to notify the user only when the results of running the
scheduled task satisfy the user's requirements.
Use sync version of send_message_to_model_wrapper for scheduled tasks
- Store scheduled job state in Postgres so job schedules persist
across app restarts
- Use Process Locks to only allow single worker to process a given job
type. This prevents duplicating job runs across all workers
- Detect when user intends to schedule a task, aka reminder
Add new output mode: reminder. Add example of selecting the reminder
output mode
- Extract schedule time (as cron timestring) and inferred query to run
from user message
- Use APScheduler to call chat with inferred query at scheduled time
- Handle reminder scheduling from both websocket and http chat requests
- Support constructing scheduled task using chat history as context
Pass chat history to scheduled query generator for improved context
for scheduled task generation
Previously the make delete API response failed, after deleting token.
Required a page refresh to see that the API token was actually gone.
This was happening because the response type of the delete token API
endpoint isn't a string, so it failed FastAPI response validation
checks.
- Allow self-hosted users to customize their open ai base url. This allows you to easily use a proxy service and extend support for other models.
- This also includes a migration that associates any existing openai chat model configuration with an openai processor configuration
- Make changing model a paid/subscriber feature
- Removes usage of langchain's OpenAI wrapper for better control over parsing input/output
- Allow passing completion args through completion_with_backoff
- Pass model_kwargs in a separate arg to simplify this
- Pass model in `model_name' kwarg from the send_message_to_model func
`model_name' kwarg is used by langchain, not `model' kwarg
- Make valid file extension checking case insensitive on Desktop app
- Skip indexing non-existent folders on Desktop app
- Pass auth headers to fix lazy load of chat messages on Desktop app
- Set chat-message height to height of content in web, desktop
Previous cross-encoder model was a few years old, newer models should
have improved in quality. Model size increases by 50% compared to
previous for better performance, at least on benchmarks
Most newer, better embeddings models add a query, docs prefix when
encoding. Previously Khoj admins couldn't configure these, so it
wasn't possible to use these newer models.
This change allows configuring the kwargs passed to the query, docs
encoders by updating the search config in the database.
Improve tool, online search, webpage links, docs search chat actor
prompts. Ensure works with hermes-2-pro and llama-3.
Be more specific about generating JSON and not saying anything else.
- Improve extract question prompts to explicitly request JSON list
- Use llama-3 chat format if HF repo_id mentions llama-3. The
llama-cpp-python logic for detecting when to use llama-3 chat format
isn't robust enough currently
* Changed the styling of the link that takes a user to the settings page into a button
* added an indicator that shows if a user is connected to the server or not
* made a class name more descriptive and also made the text in first run message more intuitive
* changed the command to install dependencies in the README.md
* changed the class name of the first run message text to be more descriptive
* added icons in the desktop UI that shows if a file is synced successfully or not
* made the link class name in the homepage more descriptive
* fixed the hover issue on status box in the chat header pane
* fixed hovering issue on status box on macOS
- User configured max tokens limits weren't being passed to
`send_message_to_model_wrapper'
- One of the load offline model code paths wasn't reachable. Remove it
to simplify code
- When max prompt size isn't set infer max tokens based on free VRAM
on machine
- Use min of app configured max tokens, vram based max tokens and
model context window
- User configured max tokens limits weren't being passed to
`send_message_to_model_wrapper'
- One of the load offline model code paths wasn't reachable. Remove it
to simplify code
- When max prompt size isn't set infer max tokens based on free VRAM
on machine
- Use min of app configured max tokens, vram based max tokens and

To access the Khoj admin panel from a non HTTPS custom domain the
`KHOJ_NO_SSL' and `KHOJ_DOMAIN' env vars need to be explictly set.
See the updated setup docs for details.
Resolves#662
### Store Generated Images as WebP
- 78bac4ae Add migration script to convert PNG to WebP references in database
- c6e84436 Update clients to support rendering webp images inline
- d21f22ff Store Khoj generated images as webp instead of png for faster loading
### Lazy Fetch Chat Messages to Improve Time, Data to First Render
This is especially helpful for long conversations with lots of images
- 128829c4 Render latest msgs on chat session load. Fetch, render rest as they near viewport
- 9e558577 Support getting latest N chat messages via chat history API
### Intelligently set Context Window of Offline Chat to Improve Performance
- 4977b551 Use offline chat prompt config to set context window of loaded chat model
### Fixes
- 148923c1 Fix to raise error on hitting rate limit during Github indexing
- b8bc6bee Always remove loading animation on Desktop app if can't login to server
- 38250705 Fix `get_user_photo` to only return photo, not user name from DB
### Miscellaneous Improvements
- 689202e0 Update recommended CMAKE flag to enable using CUDA on linux in Docs
- b820daf3 Makes logs less noisy
- Reduces time to first render when loading long chat sessions
- Limits size of first page load, when loading long chat sessions
These performance improvements are maximally felt for large chat
sessions with lots of images generated by Khoj
Updated web and desktop app to support these changes for now
Previously you couldn't configure the n_ctx of the loaded offline chat
model. This made it hard to use good offline chat model (which these
days also have larger context) on machines with lower VRAM
- Show telemetry enabled/disabled state on init, not every 2 minutes
- Convert no docs synced logs to debug level instead of warning
Having synced docs isn't as important to use Khoj now, unlike before
- Magika on Desktop app was too bloated (100Mb to 250Mb) and broke
install for some reason. Not sure why it was causing the app install
to fail but do not have time to currently investigate
- Just use file extensions whitelist it's good enough for now. Let
server handle the deeper identification of file type
### Index more text file types
- Index all text, code files in Github repos. Not just md, org files
- Send more text file types from Desktop app and improve indexing them
- Identify file type by content & allow server to index all text files
### Deprecate Github Indexing Features
- Stop indexing commits, issues and issue comments in a Github repo
- Skip indexing Github repo on hitting Github API rate limit
### Fixes and Improvements
- **Fix indexing files in sub-folders from Desktop app**
- Standardize structure of text to entries to match other entry processors
- Show internet search, webpage read, image query, image generation steps
- Standardize, improve rendering of the intermediate steps on the web app
Benefits:
1. Improved transparency, allow users to see what Khoj is doing behind
the scenes and modify their query patterns to improve response quality
2. Reduced websocket connection keep alive timeouts for long running steps
- `file-type' doesn't handle mis-labelled files or files without
extensions well
- Only show supported file types in file selector dialog on Desktop app
Use Magika to get list of text file extensions. Combine with other
supported extensions to get complete list of supported file extensions.
Use it to limit selectable files in the File Open dialog.
Note: Folder selector will index text files with no extensions as well
* Don't trigger any re-indexing on server initailization
* Integrate Resend to send welcome emails when a new user signs up
- Only send if this is the first time they've signed in
- Configure welcome email with basic styling, as more complex designs don't work and style tag did not work
### Enable copying chat messages. Improve copy button behavior and styling
- Add button to copy chat messages on Desktop, Web apps
- Improve copy button's icon, hover color & click animation in Desktop, Web apps
### Improve Navigation, Chat Session Panes on Desktop, Web apps
- Dynamically generate navigation menu based on user info from server
- Create API endpoint to get authenticated user information
- Collapse navigation tabs into icons on mobile. Add spacing to them
- Add Chat navigation tab back to top pane on Web app
- Use proper icons for Search, Chat and Agents tab on navigation pane
### Miscellaneous Improvements
- Make current chat expand to full width when session panel collapsed on Desktop App
- Add chat session loading spinner to Desktop App (same as Web app)
### Fixes
- Show title bar in Khoj desktop app on Windows to simplify close, minimize etc.
- Only render first run setup message once if error or server not running
- Fix showing Search navigation tab from Agent pages on web client
