`_compact_old_tool_returns`, `PRIOR_TURN_NOTICE` and `turn_start` leave
`RAGCapabilityBase`, along with its `wrap_model_request` hook. The evidence
capabilities now retrieve and validate, and nothing else. Registering the compaction
capability is what rewrites a request; leaving it out sends the transcript untouched,
which was never a choice a host could make before.
The boundary is the recorded question identity rather than message shape, so a
resumption compacts what lies below the question in progress instead of switching
compaction off for the whole run. The newest earlier evidence return carries the
capsule and every other becomes a receipt, so one capsule exists by construction and
every return stays paired with its call.
Pictures of cited evidence are fetched through the capability that retrieved them and
re-attached beside the capsule with fresh labels. Ownership of a picture on the wire
requires the machine tag we write and an image directly after it, since neither
position nor prose is proof: several tools' results can arrive in one request, and a
user quoting our wording above their own picture had it removed. A picture that cannot
be fetched or decoded is emitted with neither its image nor its label.
The chat TUI and the example backend register the compactor, being multi-turn.
`client.ask`, `client.analyze` and the MCP tools do not: a single-shot question has
nothing earlier to compact.
mxbai-rerank-base-v2 ships a Sigmoid activation and evaluates it in bf16, so
every strongly-relevant candidate rounds to exactly 1.0. Ties then leave the
order to the stable sort, which preserves the incoming hybrid ranking: on 100
t2_finqa retrieval cases the reranker scored MAP 0.661 against 0.659 with no
reranker at all, and 0.742 once the scores separate.
Ask the model for logits and apply the sigmoid here, where it runs in float64.
Scores stay 0-1, matching the cohere, vllm and zeroentropy rerankers.
Also drop the remaining pyright references; the project type-checks with ty.
visualize_chunk re-expanded chunks from scratch to recover their refs,
which could not faithfully reproduce the original merge, scores, and
clip — so a visualization could highlight different pages than the
citation covered. Carry the cited items on Citation.doc_item_refs and
resolve bounding boxes from them directly; re-expansion remains only as
the fallback for callers with no stored context (CLI, inspector). Chat,
inspector, the app endpoint, and the frontend pass the refs through.
