`_rich_print_search_result` asked how many databases were configured, so
`--db-name alpha` labelled every line with the database the caller had just
named. Citations already ask the client what it covers, which is the same
question the scope answers.
`settings` printed each top-level block as one Python dict repr, so nesting
was invisible, long paths wrapped mid-token and `PosixPath(...)` leaked. It
renders as YAML now, which is what `haiku.rag.yaml` is written in.
`list` does not load content, which is where the docling blobs live, so the
`content:` header announced a field the command declined to fetch. A document
without a uri or metadata printed `uri: None` and `meta: {}`, where `title`
was already omitted when absent.
`HaikuRAG.__init__` said an omitted `db_path` uses `storage.data_dir`, which
is the last of three; and that `sources` is ignored for a single `uri`, where
it raises, since only `lancedb.databases` names databases.
The name is not the only identity leaving the configuration: results,
citations, model input and errors opening a named database carry it, while
`info`, `init` and `tag` print the location. `sources=[]` returns no search
results, but `ask` and `analyze` still answer, without evidence.
Trim the comments that still narrated a failure or an alternative to the
invariant they were there for.
One sentence for the contract, one or two more only where an invariant is not
obvious. The reasons that stay are about correctness and ownership: which
database a result belongs to, who closes what, why assembly order is the
tiebreak. The ones that go narrated how the code got here.
The CLI decides only what it knows — that --db and --database are the same
thing said twice, and whether a command reads more than one — and hands the
resolved scope down. Nothing rewrites the configuration, so a named database
keeps the name results and citations carry, and a remote one opens the URI
it was configured with rather than the local path standing in for it.
HaikuRAGApp, ChatApp and InspectorApp take that scope and nothing else.
Selection reaches the client through a private constructor, so the public
signature still takes a path or names.
Document.source names the configured database, as SearchResult and
Citation already do. A listing spanning databases is unreadable
without it, and `--database NAME list` could not name the one it
opened.
Chunk 2 gave search a configured set to fan out over. ask and analyze
covered one database still: the RAG capability had no way to be told which
databases a question spanned, and the analysis sandbox mounted one
document tree.
The selection travels as sources on EvidenceState, beside the filter it
scopes with, so both capabilities read it the same way. clients_covering
is the one rule that turns a selection into clients, used by search, the
sandbox mount and the cite fallback, so a question scoped to some
databases cannot search, mount or cite another. Citations carry the
database they came from, and format_for_agent names it, so the model can
attribute evidence while it answers rather than only afterwards.
The sandbox keeps one flat /documents/{id}/ namespace and resolves each id
to the client holding it, which rests on ids being UUID4. A database
copied from another breaks that, so an id held twice is refused rather
than resolved to whichever arrived last.
On the CLI, search, ask and analyze cover the configured set and label
each result with its database. Every other command works on one, named
with --database NAME (a name reaches a database behind a URI, which --db
cannot) or --db PATH, and refuses a set it cannot choose from instead of
silently reading the default database. Cold databases open together, so a
first query costs the slowest open rather than their sum.
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.
cli.py carried 40 pragmas over whole command bodies and app.py a
class-level one over all 412 statements, while tests/test_cli.py already
drove 29 commands through CliRunner. The pragmas hid lines the suite
executed, so the 100% gate understated real coverage and gave new CLI code
no scrutiny.
Both are measured now. 38 CLI tests stub HaikuRAGApp and assert the parsed
arguments reach the right method; 60 app tests stub the client and record
the console, pinning what each command asks for and what it prints. The only
pragma left in either file is cli() under __main__. The omit list is back to
the two Textual TUIs.
Three defects the coverage surfaced:
haiku-rag settings masked only top-level secret-named fields, so nested ones
printed in full — lancedb.api_key, providers.docling_serve.api_key, WebDAV
source passwords. It uses redact_secrets, which walks the dump.
chat guarded the wrong thing: haiku.rag.chat imports without Textual, and
run_chat raises when it imports ChatApp, so the missing extra escaped as an
ImportError. The guard is on the call. inspector raises at module import
instead, so inspect keeps its guard on the import; each has a test that
fails the way the real installation fails.
search --limit/--search-type and history --limit default to None so the
config resolves the default. Now pinned.
CI passed --cov=haiku while pyproject declares source = ["haiku_rag_slim"];
pass --cov and let the config decide. build-docs.yml only ran on push to
main, so a broken docs build merged and failed at deploy: build on pull
requests, with configure-pages, upload-pages-artifact and deploy gated to
push, and a per-ref concurrency group.
engine.py held four unrelated things: what the tables are, how to open a
connection, how to read a database's state, and the Store that coordinates
writes. At 1240 lines the Store's own concerns — locks, migrations, vacuum,
tags — were hard to find among them.
Table records, Arrow schemas, index_specs, ensure_indexes, REQUIRED_TABLES
and query_to_pydantic move to store/schema.py, which imports nothing from
haiku.rag: it describes the tables and never opens or mutates one.
gather_database_info, get_database_stats, DatabaseInfo and its result models
move to store/info.py. Nothing in Store calls them — they are read paths for
the CLI, doctor, inspector and ingester API — so info depends on engine and
not the reverse.
engine.py keeps the Store, ConnectionMode, connect_lancedb, the tag helpers
and the restore-order and retention constants. No re-exports: importers
point at the new modules.
test_app_info_uses_connect_lancedb_for_remote patched
haiku.rag.store.engine.connect_lancedb; gather_database_info now binds that
name in info.py, so the patch targets where the call is looked up.
haiku.rag.config exported two configuration instances: the lazy _config
behind get_config/set_config, and Config, loaded at import time. Nothing
linked them, and eleven signatures captured Config as a default argument,
so set_config could not reach the factories, the client, the store or the
MCP server. reranking/base.py went further and snapshotted the configured
reranker name into a class attribute at import.
Config is removed. Internal defaults are config: AppConfig | None = None,
resolved through get_config() per call. RerankerBase._model is None and
CohereReranker takes its model name as an argument, like every other
reranker.
The suite patched attributes on Config while production read the instance
get_config() returns, a different object, so those patches were no-ops
waiting to happen. They now go through get_config().
Convert all LanceDB operations from sync calls wrapped in async
functions to the native async API (connect_async, AsyncConnection,
AsyncTable, AsyncQuery). Database I/O no longer blocks the event loop.
- Store and HaikuRAG use async context managers (async with). Store
initialization is deferred to __aenter__; direct construction
without async with is no longer supported.
- Index creation uses config objects (FTS, BTree, IvfPq) instead of
string-based index_type parameter.
- Upgrade callbacks are async.
- HaikuRAG tracks background vacuum tasks and awaits them in __aexit__
and before destructive rebuild operations to avoid races with
concurrent table mutations.
- temp_db_path fixture uses pytest's tmp_path for reliable async
cleanup.
