Relocate the entire new_chat/middleware/ package to the shared kernel as one
cohesive unit (it is live shared infrastructure: the multi-agent stack wraps
nearly every middleware via multi_agent_chat/middleware/main_agent/*, and
anonymous_agent consumes it too). Flip 69 live importers across both the
package-path and submodule-path forms.
Shims left for the frozen single-agent stack: a package __init__ re-export plus
submodule shims for permission, skills_backends, and scoped_model_fallback
(the three imported via submodule path by chat_deepagent/subagents).
Cycle break: importing shared.middleware previously reached back into
new_chat.tools at module load, which dragged in new_chat.__init__ ->
chat_deepagent -> the middleware shim -> half-initialized shared.middleware.
Made action_log's ToolDefinition import TYPE_CHECKING-only and
tool_call_repair's INVALID_TOOL_NAME import function-local. These tools-package
back-edges fully resolve in slice 6.
Asset note: skills_backends._default_builtin_root now walks to
app/agents/new_chat/skills/builtin (the skills/ tree migrates in slice 7).
Two pure leaf modules with no intra-new_chat deps and no frozen importer.
Moving them now (before the middleware package) pre-empts two shared->new_chat
back-edges that the middleware move would otherwise create
(knowledge_search->utils, kb_postgres_backend->document_xml).
Relocate the mutually-dependent LLM config layer and the LiteLLM prompt-caching
helper to the shared kernel as one unit, rewiring their internal cross-reference
to the shared paths. Flip 21 non-frozen importers. Re-export shims remain at
new_chat/{llm_config,prompt_caching}.py for the frozen single-agent stack
(chat_deepagent); they will be removed when that stack is retired.
Relocate the permission evaluator (wildcard matcher + rule evaluation) to the
shared kernel and flip 43 non-frozen importers. A re-export shim remains at
new_chat/permissions.py for the frozen single-agent stack (chat_deepagent and
subagents/{config,providers/linear,providers/slack}); it will be removed when
that stack is retired.
Relocate three leaf filesystem-cluster modules to the shared kernel and flip
all 38 importers. No re-export shims needed (no frozen single-agent importer).
This also resolves the pre-existing shared->new_chat back-edge from
shared/receipt_command.py onto filesystem_state.
filesystem_backends is intentionally deferred to slice 5: it depends on
new_chat middleware (kb_postgres_backend, multi_root_local_folder_backend)
that have not yet moved, so relocating it now would create a shared->new_chat edge.
Promote the filesystem mode contracts (FilesystemMode, FilesystemSelection,
ClientPlatform, LocalFilesystemMount) out of `new_chat` into the cross-agent
`app/agents/shared` kernel.
Pure leaf consumed across the whole multi-agent filesystem middleware/tool tree,
the chat flows/monolith, routes and tests. git mv (content unchanged) + flipped
all ~48 importers. A re-export shim remains at new_chat/filesystem_selection.py
only for the not-yet-retired single-agent (chat_deepagent).
Also updated the stream parity test's annotation normalizer to strip the new
app.agents.shared.filesystem_selection. prefix (the dataclasses' __module__
changed with the move), keeping monolith<->flows signature parity intact.
Behavior-preserving: only import paths change. 1326 tests green.
Promote the agent feature-flag resolver (AgentFeatureFlags / get_flags) out of
`new_chat` into the cross-agent `app/agents/shared` kernel.
feature_flags is a pure leaf consumed across the multi-agent middleware stack,
the chat routes, and tests. Moved it via git mv (content unchanged) and flipped
all 37 importers to app.agents.shared.feature_flags. A thin re-export shim
remains at new_chat/feature_flags.py only for the not-yet-retired single-agent
(chat_deepagent); it goes away with the single-agent deletion.
Behavior-preserving: only import paths change. 1243 tests green.
Continue promoting the shared agent toolkit out of `new_chat` into the
cross-agent `app/agents/shared` kernel.
- state_reducers.py: clean move (no single-agent importer); all 7 importers
flipped to app.agents.shared.state_reducers.
- context.py: moved to app.agents.shared.context; flipped the multi-agent,
app, automations, chat-flows and monolith importers. A thin re-export shim
remains at new_chat/context.py because the not-yet-retired single-agent
(chat_deepagent) and the new_chat package __init__ still import it; the shim
goes away with the single-agent deletion.
- Updated the stream parity test's annotation normalizer to strip the new
app.agents.shared.context. prefix (SurfSenseContextSchema.__module__ changed
with the move), keeping monolith<->flows signature parity intact.
Behavior-preserving: definitions unchanged; only import paths move. 1219 tests green.
First slice of promoting the shared agent toolkit out of the misnamed
`new_chat` package into the cross-agent `app/agents/shared` kernel.
`errors.py` is a leaf module (no intra-package deps) consumed by the
multi-agent chat, the chat streaming flows/monolith, and tests — i.e. it is
shared infrastructure, not single-agent code. Moved it verbatim to
`app.agents.shared.errors` and flipped all 12 importers. No re-export shim
remains since zero importers needed it.
Behavior-preserving: identical class/enum definitions; only the import path
changes. 1208 agent + chat-task tests green.
- Added new environment variables for controlling task execution limits, including `SURFSENSE_SUBAGENT_INVOKE_TIMEOUT_SECONDS`, `SURFSENSE_TASK_BATCH_CONCURRENCY`, and `SURFSENSE_TASK_BATCH_MAX_SIZE`.
- Updated documentation to reflect new batch processing capabilities for `task` calls, allowing for concurrent execution of multiple subagent tasks.
- Improved error handling and receipt generation for deliverables, ensuring consistent feedback on task status.
- Refactored middleware to incorporate search space ID for better task management.
Resolves: surfsense_backend/app/agents/new_chat/middleware/memory_injection.py
- Took both imports: upstream moved MEMORY_HARD_LIMIT/SOFT_LIMIT to
app.services.memory; kept our perf-logger import for timing.
Pulls in upstream changes:
- Memory document feature (services/memory refactor, removal of
app.agents.new_chat.memory_extraction and background extraction in
stream_new_chat — agent now drives memory via update_memory tool).
- BACKEND_URL env refactor across web tool-ui/editor/chat/dashboard/lib.
- GitHub Actions backend test workflow + pre-commit biome bump.
- Token-display polish in MessageInfoDropdown; save_memory no-update
sentinel.
Verified: 1723 unit tests pass, ruff clean. No semantic regression in
stream_new_chat (their memory-extraction deletion and our preflight
removal touch different functions).
Adds an optional planner LLM role wired through KnowledgePriorityMiddleware
so KB query rewriting, date extraction, and recency classification run on a
cheap model (e.g. gpt-4o-mini, Haiku, Azure nano) instead of the user's
chat LLM. Operators opt in by setting is_planner: true on exactly one
global config; without it, behavior is unchanged.
_create_document and _update_document run on the chat critical path
when the filesystem subagent writes via the user's chat turn. Both
called embed_texts synchronously inside an async coroutine, blocking
the event loop for the duration of the embed.
embed_texts holds a threading.Lock and runs a sync embedding call inside
search_knowledge_base, an async coroutine on the KB priority middleware
critical path. Blocking the event loop here stalls every other coroutine
on the worker (SSE keepalives, concurrent chat requests, background
tasks). Wrap in asyncio.to_thread so the embed runs on the default
executor pool while the loop keeps serving.
Renames the SurfSense HITL extension decision-type from "always" to
"approve_always" so it sits in the same verb-first family as "approve",
"reject", and "edit". The Python constant is now SURFSENSE_DECISION_APPROVE_ALWAYS;
the wire value, the permission-domain decision_type, and the FE union members
all match (no wire/internal mismatch).
Both the multi_agent_chat permission middleware and the legacy new_chat one
accept the new wire value; the FE types.ts union is updated accordingly.
The "context.always" payload key is intentionally left untouched - it's the
patterns-to-promote field, semantically distinct from the decision type.
