# Description of Changes Adds storage in the database for full document content alongside the RAG content (and changes the service to `DocumentService` instead of `RagService`). Then adds a generic capability that should be usable by any agent (currently just used by the Question Agent) which allows the agent to pull out the full contents of the doc, chunks it into various sections that will fit in the context window, and then processes them in parallel to create an intermediate result, and then processes the intermediate result into a final answer. It will re-chunk as many times as necessary to get the content small enough for the actual answer to be analysed (I've tested on PDFs ~3500 pages long, which is well above the context limit and requires maybe 3 rounds of compression to get an answer). The new full doc analysis stuff is heavier than the RAG lookup so both remain. The agents should use RAG for targeted info and the chunked reasoner for info that requires reading the full doc.
Frontend
All frontend commands are run from the repository root using Task:
task frontend:dev— start Vite dev server (localhost:5173)task frontend:build— production buildtask frontend:test— run teststask frontend:test:watch— run tests in watch modetask frontend:lint— run ESLint + cycle detectiontask frontend:typecheck— run TypeScript type checkingtask frontend:check— run typecheck + lint + testtask frontend:install— install npm dependencies
For desktop app development, see the Tauri section below.
Environment Variables
Environment variables live in committed .env files at the frontend root:
.env— used by all builds (core, proprietary, and as the base for desktop/SaaS).env.desktop— additional vars loaded in desktop (Tauri) mode.env.saas— additional vars loaded in SaaS mode
These files contain non-secret defaults and are checked into Git, so most dev work needs no further setup.
To override values locally (API keys, machine-specific settings), create an uncommitted sibling .env.local / .env.desktop.local / .env.saas.local. Vite automatically layers these on top of the committed files.
Docker Setup
For Docker deployments and configuration, see the Docker README.
Tauri
All desktop tasks are available via Task. From the root of the repo:
Dev
task desktop:dev
This ensures the JLink runtime and backend JAR exist (skipping if already built), then starts Tauri in dev mode.
Build
task desktop:build
This does a full clean rebuild of the backend JAR and JLink runtime, then builds the Tauri app for production.
Platform-specific dev builds are also available:
task desktop:build:dev # No bundling
task desktop:build:dev:mac # macOS .app bundle
task desktop:build:dev:windows # Windows NSIS installer
task desktop:build:dev:linux # Linux AppImage
JLink Tasks
You can also run JLink steps individually:
task desktop:jlink # Build JAR + create JLink runtime
task desktop:jlink:jar # Build backend JAR only
task desktop:jlink:runtime # Create JLink custom JRE only
task desktop:jlink:clean # Remove JLink artifacts
Clean
task desktop:clean
Removes all desktop build artifacts including JLink runtime, bundled JARs, Cargo build, and dist/build directories.
