An agent called with its API key (widget, API) runs as its owner, and
nobody can approve an action there, so a write set to Always allow ran
on the owner's account for anyone holding the key. A caller is external
when the request carries the key and is not signed in as the owner (an
owner previewing their agent keeps full access).
For external callers, write actions on connection-backed tools are
refused unless listed in the agent config's new api_write_allowlist
(tool_id:action), and a missing connection is refused instead of pausing
on a Connect card the widget cannot show. The flag and list survive a
paused-and-resumed stream. Owners pick the allowed actions under Access
details; a team editor's update keeps the stored list.
chunks is a total per request, split across the attached sources, so an
agent with two sources and the default of 2 got a single chunk from each,
and its answers changed with whichever chunk won. 6 gives three per
source for about 4-5k more input tokens per retrieval turn.
Every literal default moves from 2 to 6: the request default, the
retrievers, the internal search tool, workflow agent nodes, scheduled and
headless runs, agent create/update/import, the source retrieval config and
the frontend forms. Existing agents and sources keep what they store; a
source saved with chunks=2 now counts as configured at 2, which is pinned
by a test.
Headless runs also read chunks=0 as unset (`or 2`), so an agent with
retrieval switched off retrieved anyway on scheduled runs; 0 now stays 0.
build_agent no longer takes request_id from the request body: it becomes
the primary LLM's usage request id, and quotas count distinct request ids,
so a client could make every call count as one. Requests refused after
setup started (unauthorized, over quota, resume conflict, setup error) now
write their trace, marked error, through an after-request hook; streaming
routes hand the trace to complete_stream instead.
StreamProcessor starts the trace and mints the request id before the
agent is built, so pre-fetch retrieval and compression are inside it and
side-channel LLM calls share the id. complete_stream activates it in the
SSE pump thread, binds the message and conversation, and writes it once
however the stream ends: paused, failed, abandoned or superseded (dropped).
user_logs rows now carry request_id and message_id.
The sources list used to start with a fake "Default" entry that had no id
and, at run time, meant "no source, skip retrieval". The agent form
pre-selected it, snapped back to it when the last source was deselected,
and refused to publish without it, so a new agent always looked like it
had a knowledge base when it had none.
Backend
- /api/sources returns only ingested sources; no placeholder row.
- Publishing an agent no longer requires a source on create or update.
The legacy "default" value is still accepted and maps to NULL.
Frontend
- The agent source picker starts empty, can be cleared, and shows a hint
that a source-less agent answers from the model and its tools only.
- The picker groups sources into "Your sources" and "Shared with team"
when any team-shared source exists, shows "N sources selected" for a
multi-selection, and gets the same "Go to Sources" / "Upload new"
footer as the chat picker. A source uploaded from the form is selected
when it lands.
- Source selection serialisation and the picker id live in one helper
shared with the chat picker; the four copies in the form are gone.
- The client no longer seeds a placeholder source in the store, and the
dead auto-select of a "default" document is removed.
The backend import package is now docsgpt, the name it will carry on PyPI;
application was far too generic to install into anyone's site-packages.
git mv plus a mechanical rewrite of every import, dotted string and path
reference: 734 Python files, the compose files, Dockerfile, workflows, docs,
setup scripts, devcontainer, k8s manifests, vscode config, pytest and coverage
config, .gitignore. Behaviour is unchanged.
Kept for one release:
- A top-level application package whose meta-path finder resolves
application.x.y to the already-imported docsgpt.x.y object, so old imports
and entry points (celery -A application.app.celery,
uvicorn application.asgi:asgi_app) keep working with a FutureWarning.
- Celery registers every application.* task name as an alias of its
docsgpt.* task on start-up, so messages queued by the previous release still
run. The redbeat key prefix moves to redbeat:docsgpt:v2: so schedule entries
the previous release wrote are left unread instead of firing twice.
The backend image builds from the repository root (docker build -f
docsgpt/Dockerfile .) so it can ship the alias package; a root .dockerignore
allow-lists docsgpt/ and application/ and keeps caches, local data, .env
files, the sample index files and the Dockerfile out. Compose and the image
workflows point at the new context.
