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).
The preflight pattern probed the LLM with a 1-token ping before each
cold turn (when requested_llm_config_id==0, llm_config_id<0, and the
45s healthy TTL had expired) to detect 429s before fanning out into
planner/classifier/title-gen. To absorb its ~1-5s RTT cost we built the
agent speculatively in parallel; on 429 we discarded the build and
repinned.
Three problems with that design:
1. False security. Provider rate limits are token-bucket. A 1-token
ping consumes ~5 tokens; the real request consumes 10-50K. The
probe can return 200 while the real call still 429s.
2. Pure overhead in the common case. On warm-agent-cache turns the
probe dominates wall time: ~2.5s of TTFT pure tax for ~99% of users
who never see a 429.
3. The in-stream recovery loop (catch of _is_provider_rate_limited
gated by not _first_event_logged) already does the right thing
reactively: mark_runtime_cooldown -> resolve_or_get_pinned_llm_config_id
with exclude_config_ids={previous} -> rebuild agent -> retry the
stream. Preflight was never the only safety net; it was a redundant
probe in front of one.
Changes:
- Delete _preflight_llm, _settle_speculative_agent_build, and the
_PREFLIGHT_TIMEOUT_SEC / _PREFLIGHT_MAX_TOKENS constants.
- Drop the parallel agent_build_task / preflight_task plumbing in
both stream_new_chat and stream_resume_chat; build the agent inline
with await _build_main_agent_for_thread(...).
- Drop the unused is_recently_healthy / mark_healthy imports here
(still exported from auto_model_pin_service since OpenRouter
catalogue refresh and a few tests reference clear_healthy).
- Remove the obsolete preflight + settle-speculative tests from
test_stream_new_chat_contract.py.
Net: -447 LOC. ~2.5s removed from TTFT on every cold preflight-eligible
turn. 429 recovery path is unchanged - same repin/rebuild/retry, just
not paid in advance on the healthy path.
