- Applied Black formatter and isort across entire codebase for professional consistency
- Moved implementation scripts (rag-mini.py, rag-tui.py) to bin/ directory for cleaner root
- Updated shell scripts to reference new bin/ locations maintaining user compatibility
- Added comprehensive linting configuration (.flake8, pyproject.toml) with dedicated .venv-linting
- Removed development artifacts (commit_message.txt, GET_STARTED.md duplicate) from root
- Consolidated documentation and fixed script references across all guides
- Relocated test_fixes.py to proper tests/ directory
- Enhanced project structure following Python packaging standards
All user commands work identically while improving code organization and beginner accessibility.
This comprehensive update enhances user experience with several key improvements:
## Enhanced Streaming & Thinking Display
- Implement real-time streaming with gray thinking tokens that collapse after completion
- Fix thinking token redisplay bug with proper content filtering
- Add clear "AI Response:" headers to separate thinking from responses
- Enable streaming by default for better user engagement
- Keep thinking visible for exploration, collapse only for suggested questions
## Natural Conversation Responses
- Convert clunky JSON exploration responses to natural, conversational format
- Improve exploration prompts for friendly, colleague-style interactions
- Update summary generation with better context handling
- Eliminate double response display issues
## Model Reference Updates
- Remove all llama3.2 references in favor of qwen3 models
- Fix non-existent qwen3:3b references, replace with proper model names
- Update model rankings to prioritize working qwen models across all components
- Ensure consistent model recommendations in docs and examples
## Cross-Platform Icon Integration
- Add desktop icon setup to Linux installer with .desktop entry
- Add Windows shortcuts for desktop and Start Menu integration
- Improve installer user experience with visual branding
## Configuration & Navigation Fixes
- Fix "0" option in configuration menu to properly go back
- Improve configuration menu user-friendliness
- Update troubleshooting guides with correct model suggestions
These changes significantly improve the beginner experience while maintaining
technical accuracy and system reliability.
Major fixes:
- Fix model selection to prioritize qwen3:1.7b instead of qwen3:4b for testing
- Correct context length from 80,000 to 32,000 tokens (proper Qwen3 limit)
- Implement content-preserving safeguards instead of dropping responses
- Fix all test imports from claude_rag to mini_rag module naming
- Add virtual environment warnings to all test entry points
- Fix TUI EOF crash handling with proper error handling
- Remove warmup delays that were causing startup lag and unwanted model calls
- Fix command mappings between bash wrapper and Python script
- Update documentation to reflect qwen3:1.7b as primary recommendation
- Improve TUI box alignment and formatting
- Make language generic for any documents, not just codebases
- Add proper folder names in user feedback instead of generic terms
Technical improvements:
- Unified model rankings across all components
- Better error handling for missing dependencies
- Comprehensive testing and validation of all fixes
- All tests now pass and system is deployment-ready
All major crashes and deployment issues resolved.
