* feat: introduce hindsight-api-slim and hindsight-all-slim packages
Closes#552
- Move all source code from hindsight-api/ to new hindsight-api-slim/
- hindsight-api-slim has heavy ML deps (torch, sentence-transformers,
transformers, einops, flashrank, mlx, mlx-lm, safetensors) and
pg0-embedded as optional extras: [local-ml], [embedded-db], [all]
- hindsight-api becomes a zero-code meta-package depending on
hindsight-api-slim[all] for full backward compatibility
- Add hindsight-all-slim meta-package: hindsight-api-slim + client + embed
- hindsight-all updated to depend on hindsight-api-slim[all]
- pg0.py: lazy-import pg0 with clear ImportError pointing to [embedded-db]
- Dockerfile: replace sed hack with proper uv sync --extra flags
- Update release.yml, test.yml, lint.sh, release.sh, CLAUDE.md and
all path references throughout the repo
* refactor: rename hindsight/ directory to hindsight-all/
* docs: document hindsight-api-slim and hindsight-all-slim package variants
Add package variants table and extras explanation to installation.md
* docs: remove emojis from installation.md, use professional tone
* docs: link Docker slim variant to pip package variants section
* docs: consolidate Docker image variants into single table
* ci: fix working-directory paths after package restructure
- Replace all hindsight-api → hindsight-api-slim in test.yml
- Replace hindsight → hindsight-all in test.yml
- Add --extra embedded-db to test-embed API install step
* ci: add local-ml and embedded-db extras to API sync steps
These extras were previously implicit in the old hindsight-api package
(which bundled everything). Now that hindsight-api-slim uses optional
extras, we must explicitly request local-ml and embedded-db in CI.
* ci: add API install step with embedded-db to test-embed smoke test
The smoke test starts hindsight-api as a daemon, which requires pg0-embedded.
Add a dedicated install step for hindsight-api-slim with embedded-db extra
so the daemon can start successfully.
* ci: remove --no-install-project when using optional extras
When --no-install-project is combined with --extra, the optional deps
are not installed because extras require the project to be active.
Remove --no-install-project from steps that need local-ml or embedded-db.
* ci: fix ordering of uv sync steps to preserve optional extras
When uv sync runs for a different workspace member, it removes optional
extras installed for other members. Fix by always running extra-requiring
API sync last, after other workspace member syncs.
Also remove --no-install-project from embedded-db sync in test-embed,
as --no-install-project prevents optional extras from being active.
* ci: add local-ml extra to test-embed API install for smoke test
The smoke test starts the full API server which needs sentence-transformers
for local embeddings (default provider). Add local-ml extra to the install.
* ci: simplify extras with --all-extras and add slim pip smoke test
- Replace explicit --extra local-ml --extra embedded-db with --all-extras
for cleaner, more maintainable sync steps
- Add test-pip-slim job: tests hindsight-api-slim[embedded-db] without
local ML models, using Cohere for embeddings/reranking (mirrors Docker
slim smoke test approach)
* ci: simplify slim smoke test to health check only (mirrors Docker test)
DeepInfra rejects requests when encoding_format is null. LiteLLM sets
it to None by default, so we explicitly pass "float" — the only format
compatible with our list[list[float]] return type.

Add missing DEFAULT_* and ENV_* constants to cross_encoder.py and embeddings.py imports:
- DEFAULT_RERANKER_COHERE_MODEL
- DEFAULT_LITELLM_API_BASE
- DEFAULT_RERANKER_LITELLM_MODEL
- DEFAULT_EMBEDDINGS_COHERE_MODEL
- DEFAULT_EMBEDDINGS_LITELLM_MODEL
- ENV_RERANKER_COHERE_MODEL
This fixes NameError failures in test-api, test-hindsight-all, and test-upgrade CI jobs.
* feat: support vertex as llm provider
* fix
* fix: add uv index-strategy to resolve dependency conflicts with pytorch index
When using pytorch index for faster torch downloads in CI,
filelock dependency resolution was failing because pytorch index
only has older versions. Adding unsafe-best-match strategy allows
uv to search all configured indexes.
Also fix type checking warnings from ty.
* fix: add index-strategy to root pyproject.toml for workspace-level uv resolution
* chore: regenerate client SDKs after Vertex AI support
* fix: include correct __version__ in python packages
* fix(embed): force CPU mode for local models in daemon to prevent XPC crashes
Adds HINDSIGHT_API_EMBEDDINGS_LOCAL_FORCE_CPU and HINDSIGHT_API_RERANKER_LOCAL_FORCE_CPU
environment variables to force CPU-only operation for local sentence-transformer models.
This prevents XPC_ERROR_CONNECTION_INVALID crashes on macOS when running in daemon mode.
The issue occurs because PyTorch's MPS (Metal Performance Shaders) backend has unstable
XPC connections in background processes, leading to C++ assertion failures that Python
exception handlers cannot catch.
Changes:
- config.py: Add ENV_*_FORCE_CPU constants and config dataclass fields
- embeddings.py: Add force_cpu parameter to LocalSTEmbeddings constructor
- cross_encoder.py: Add force_cpu parameter to LocalSTCrossEncoder constructor
- main.py: Set force CPU env vars in daemon mode, add fields to config constructor
The daemon mode automatically enables force CPU for both embeddings and reranker,
while normal mode allows hardware acceleration (GPU/MPS) as before.

* fix: add defensive error handling to PyTorch device detection
Wraps all PyTorch device detection code (torch.cuda.is_available()
and torch.backends.mps.is_available()) in try-except blocks that
gracefully fall back to CPU if any errors occur.
This complements PR #218's force_cpu configuration by ensuring the
code works reliably in all environments without configuration:
- CI environments with CPU-only PyTorch builds
- Systems without proper GPU/MPS support
- Partial or misconfigured PyTorch installations
The defensive approach prevents startup failures while still taking
advantage of GPU/MPS acceleration when available and force_cpu is
not explicitly set.
Changes:
- embeddings.py: Added try-except in initialize() and _reinitialize_model_sync()
- cross_encoder.py: Added try-except in initialize() and _reinitialize_model_sync()
* refactor: use get_config() for embeddings and reranker force_cpu
Changes create_embeddings_from_env() and create_cross_encoder_from_env()
to read configuration via get_config() instead of directly accessing
os.environ. This ensures consistency across the codebase and properly
respects the force_cpu configuration set by daemon mode.
Changes:
- embeddings.py: Use config.embeddings_local_model and config.embeddings_local_force_cpu
- cross_encoder.py: Use config.reranker_local_model and config.reranker_local_force_cpu
- Both: Use get_config() for provider, tei_url, and other config fields
- Note: Some fields not in config (like max_concurrent for local reranker) still read from os.environ
This fixes the issue where force_cpu was read inconsistently from environment
variables instead of using the centralized config system.
* test: clear config cache in test_create_from_env
Fixes test failure caused by cached config not picking up
environment variable changes in test. The test now calls
clear_config_cache() before and after patching os.environ
to ensure the factory function reads the test's env vars.
* refactor: add reranker_local_max_concurrent to config system
Adds reranker_local_max_concurrent to HindsightConfig dataclass
and removes the workaround in create_cross_encoder_from_env() that
was reading it directly from os.environ.
Changes:
- config.py: Add reranker_local_max_concurrent field to dataclass and from_env()
- main.py: Add reranker_local_max_concurrent to manual config constructor
- cross_encoder.py: Use config.reranker_local_max_concurrent instead of os.environ
This completes the refactoring to use the centralized config system
for all reranker configuration.

Remove device_map from model_kwargs as it conflicts with CrossEncoder's
internal .to(device) call. The low_cpu_mem_usage=False setting alone is
sufficient to prevent lazy loading (meta tensors).
* fix: prevent meta tensor issues when accelerate is installed without GPU
When accelerate is installed but no GPU is available, transformers can
incorrectly use lazy loading (meta tensors) which fails when
sentence-transformers tries to move the model to a device.
The fix checks hardware and installed packages to determine the right
loading strategy:
- GPU available: device=None, device_map=None (auto-detect GPU)
- No GPU + accelerate: device='cpu', device_map='cpu' (force CPU loading)
- No GPU + no accelerate: device='cpu', device_map=None (normal CPU)

* fix: add filelock for model initialization in parallel tests
When pytest-xdist runs multiple workers in parallel, they all try to
load models from the HuggingFace cache simultaneously, causing race
conditions and intermittent meta tensor errors.
Added filelock around embeddings and cross_encoder initialization in
conftest.py, similar to how pg0 database setup is serialized. Models
are now pre-initialized in the fixture before being passed to tests.

* fix: add MPS support for macOS Apple Silicon
Extend GPU detection to include Apple MPS backend in addition to CUDA.
This ensures macOS users with Apple Silicon use MPS acceleration
instead of being incorrectly routed to the CPU fallback path.
