Sixty-three comments said what the next statement already said: # Connect to
LanceDB above connect_lancedb, # Path object above isinstance(source, Path),
# Get page numbers from provenance above the prov loop, # Clear and populate
results above list_view.clear(). They cost a read and carry nothing.
The line is whether a comment restates one statement or labels a phase. Phase
labels stay: the migrations keep # Create staging table with new schema and
# Copy from staging to final table in batches, each heading ten lines of a
long procedure. So do comments carrying a fact the code cannot: the
merge_insert update-only note on document_meta, why the poller builds sources
eagerly, why create_document_from_source returns a list for directories, that
indexes need training data, the field-group markers in the config models, and
the file:// URL-encoding note in create_document_from_source.
capabilities/ is untouched. Its docstrings sit next to prompt surface, and
changing them needs an eval to back it.
The cassette-recording docs were wrong three ways. They named
tests/test_qa.py::test_qa_anthropic, which no longer exists; they targeted
whole modules, so a rewrite would re-record cassettes for services the
recorder is not running; and they used COHERE_API_KEY where the SDK reads
CO_API_KEY. docs/development.md now names exact tests with -n0, and the keyed
example is test_cohere_reranker, which owns the one cassette recording
api.cohere.com.
Every section inherited plain BaseModel, so unknown keys were dropped
silently: providers.docling_serve.timeout was documented for months while
being ignored, and a typo in any setting took the default. Sections now
derive from ConfigModel, which forbids extras, so a stale or misspelled key
fails with its path. This already found search.context_radius in a live app
config and providers.vllm in soliplex's example.
converter, chunker and chunker_type are Literals. Sizes, limits,
dimensions, token budgets, attempt counts and breaker thresholds must be
positive; retention, delays, intervals and cooldowns non-negative;
similarity_threshold within 0-1; port within 0-65535. port 0 keeps its
OS-assigned meaning and worker_count allows 0 for an API-and-reaper-only
process.
get_reranker caught ImportError and returned None, so a configured reranker
whose extra was missing silently disappeared. It now propagates.
raise_missing_extra names the install command and re-raises when the failure
came from inside an installed package, so a broken transitive import is not
reported as a missing one. zeroentropy imported bare and now guards like the
others.
The haiku.rag package declares the jina extra. jina-local already worked
there through cross-encoder's transitive transformers and torch; the
resolved package set is unchanged, but the support is now promised rather
than inherited.
Provider fields stay unconstrained: get_model ends in a pass-through to
pydantic-ai for any provider it supports, so a Literal there would reject
valid configurations.
