- Don't be overly complacent. I'm a massive idiot so I can be wrong -- and so can you. If things look like shit, call me out on my bullshit.

# Gitingest AI-Powered Redesign Summary

## Overview

Successfully redesigned the Gitingest application to use AI-powered file selection with Google Gemini, replacing manual pattern and size configuration with intelligent, context-aware file selection.

## 🚀 Key Features Implemented

### 1. AI-Powered File Selection
- **Google Gemini Integration**: Uses Gemini 1.5 Pro for intelligent file analysis
- **Context-Aware Selection**: AI analyzes repository structure and selects most relevant files
- **User Prompt Guidance**: Optional user prompts to guide file selection (e.g., "API endpoints", "frontend components")
- **Fallback System**: Heuristic-based fallback when AI is unavailable

### 2. New User Interface
- **Simplified Form**: Removed complex pattern selectors and file size sliders
- **Prompt Input**: Optional textarea for user requirements
- **Context Size Selector**: Choose from 32k, 128k, 512k, or 1M token limits
- **AI Branding**: Clear indication of AI-powered functionality
- **Enhanced Results**: Shows AI selection reasoning and file count

### 3. Smart Context Management
- **Token-Aware Processing**: Respects context window limits
- **Automatic Cropping**: Content automatically sized to fit selected context
- **Intelligent Sampling**: Uses ~1M token sample for AI analysis

## 📋 Implementation Details

### Backend Changes

#### New Models (`server/models.py`)
```python
class ContextSize(str, Enum):
SMALL = "32k" # ~32k tokens
MEDIUM = "128k" # ~128k tokens
LARGE = "512k" # ~512k tokens
XLARGE = "1M" # ~1M tokens

class IngestRequest(BaseModel):
input_text: str
context_size: ContextSize = ContextSize.MEDIUM
user_prompt: str = ""
token: str | None = None
```

#### AI File Selector (`server/ai_file_selector.py`)
- **Gemini Integration**: Uses `google-generativeai` library
- **File Analysis**: Creates hierarchical file summaries with content previews
- **Intelligent Prompting**: Generates context-aware prompts for optimal selection
- **Error Handling**: Graceful fallback when AI fails

#### AI Ingestion Flow (`server/ai_ingestion.py`)
- **Two-Phase Process**: Initial scan → AI selection → filtered ingest
- **Context Window Management**: Automatic content cropping to fit limits
- **Metadata Enhancement**: Enriches summaries with AI selection info

### Frontend Changes

#### New UI Components
- **AI Form Template** (`templates/components/git_form_ai.jinja`): Modern, simplified interface
- **Enhanced Results** (`templates/components/result_ai.jinja`): Shows AI selection details
- **Context Selector**: Intuitive dropdown with token count estimates

#### JavaScript Enhancements
- **AI Utilities** (`static/js/utils_ai.js`): Specialized handlers for AI flow
- **Form Validation**: Smart validation for AI-specific fields
- **Loading States**: AI-themed loading indicators and messages
- **Error Handling**: Detailed error reporting for AI failures

### Configuration

#### New Dependencies
```toml
# Added to pyproject.toml
"google-generativeai>=0.8.0", # Google Gemini API
```

#### Environment Variables
```bash
# Required for AI features
GEMINI_API_KEY=your_api_key_here
```

## 🔄 New Workflow

### 1. Initial Repository Analysis
```
User Input → Repository Cloning → Full File Tree Generation
```

### 2. AI-Powered Selection
```
File Tree + User Prompt → Gemini API → Selected File Paths + Reasoning
```

### 3. Optimized Processing
```
Selected Files → Content Generation → Context Window Cropping → Final Output
```

## 📊 Context Size Options

| Size | Token Count | Equivalent Pages | Use Case |
|------|-------------|------------------|----------|
| 32k | ~32,000 | ~25 pages | Focused analysis |
| 128k | ~128,000 | ~100 pages | Balanced overview |
| 512k | ~512,000 | ~400 pages | Comprehensive analysis |
| 1M | ~1,000,000 | ~800 pages | Deep dive |

## 🛡️ Error Handling & Fallbacks

### AI Failure Scenarios
1. **API Key Missing**: Graceful degradation to heuristic selection
2. **API Rate Limits**: Clear error messages with retry suggestions
3. **Network Issues**: Timeout handling with fallback options
4. **Invalid Responses**: JSON parsing with error recovery

### Fallback File Selection
When AI is unavailable, the system uses intelligent heuristics:
- **Priority Files**: README, main.*, index.*, config files
- **File Type Filtering**: Focus on code files (.py, .js, .ts, .java, etc.)
- **Size-Based Limits**: Adaptive limits based on context size

## 🎨 UI/UX Improvements

### Visual Enhancements
- **AI Branding**: Robot emojis and "AI-Powered" messaging
- **Progress Indicators**: Specialized loading states for AI processing
- **Results Display**: Collapsible file lists and selection reasoning
- **Responsive Design**: Mobile-friendly layout adjustments

### User Experience
- **Simplified Workflow**: From 5+ form fields to 3 essential inputs
- **Smart Defaults**: Reasonable defaults for all fields
- **Contextual Help**: Tooltips and examples for guidance
- **Success Feedback**: Clear indication of AI analysis completion

## 🔧 Technical Architecture

### File Selection Algorithm
```python
def ai_select_files(repository_structure, user_prompt, context_size):
# 1. Create hierarchical file summary with content previews
file_summary = create_file_summary(repository_structure)

# 2. Generate AI prompt with context
prompt = create_selection_prompt(file_summary, user_prompt, context_size)

# 3. Query Gemini API
response = gemini_model.generate_content(prompt)

# 4. Parse and validate response
return parse_file_selection(response)
```

### Context Window Management
```python
def crop_to_context_window(content, context_size):
tokens = tokenize(content)
limit = get_token_limit(context_size)

if len(tokens) <= limit:
return content

return decode_tokens(tokens[:limit]) + "\n[Content truncated]"
```

## 📈 Performance Optimizations

### Efficient Processing
- **Parallel Operations**: Concurrent file reading and AI analysis
- **Smart Sampling**: Limited content preview for AI analysis
- **Caching Ready**: Structure supports future prompt-based caching
- **Resource Limits**: Bounded memory usage for large repositories

### API Efficiency
- **Single API Call**: One Gemini request per analysis
- **Optimized Prompts**: Minimal token usage in prompts
- **Error Recovery**: Fast fallback without retry delays

## 🚦 Migration Path

### Backward Compatibility
- **Old Endpoints**: Still functional for existing integrations
- **Gradual Rollout**: New UI can be toggled via configuration
- **API Versioning**: V1 endpoints preserved, V2 with AI features

### Deployment Steps
1. **Install Dependencies**: `pip install google-generativeai`
2. **Set API Key**: Configure `GEMINI_API_KEY` environment variable
3. **Update Templates**: Use new AI-powered form components
4. **Test Integration**: Verify AI functionality with sample repositories

## 🔍 Monitoring & Observability

### AI-Specific Metrics
- **Selection Success Rate**: Track AI vs fallback usage
- **Response Quality**: Monitor file selection accuracy
- **Performance Metrics**: AI response times and token usage
- **Error Tracking**: Detailed AI failure categorization

### Enhanced Logging
```python
logger.info("AI file selection completed", extra={
"selected_files_count": len(selected_files),
"reasoning_length": len(reasoning),
"context_size": context_size,
"user_prompt": user_prompt[:100]
})
```
