Move the wire rewrite into the compaction capability
`_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.

haiku.rag-slim

Opinionated agentic RAG powered by LanceDB, Pydantic AI, and Docling - Core package with minimal dependencies.

haiku.rag-slim is the core package for users who want to install only the dependencies they need. Document processing (docling), and reranker support are all optional extras.

For most users, we recommend installing haiku.rag instead, which includes all features out of the box.

Installation

Python 3.12 or newer required

Minimal Installation

uv pip install haiku.rag-slim

Core functionality with OpenAI/Ollama support, MCP server, and Logfire observability. Document processing (docling) is optional.

With Document Processing

uv pip install haiku.rag-slim[docling]

Adds support for 40+ file formats including PDF, DOCX, HTML, and more.

Available Extras

Document Processing:

  • docling - PDF, DOCX, HTML, and 40+ file formats

Embedding Providers:

  • voyageai - VoyageAI embeddings

Rerankers:
