joplin-plugin-jarvis - v0.7.0

Jarvis can now work completely offline! (Continue reading) This release adds two new model interfaces.

Google PaLM

• If you have access to it (it's free), you can use it for chat and for related notes.

Custom OpenAI-like APIs

• This allows Jarvis to use custom endpoints and models that have an OpenAI-compatible interface.
• Example: [tested] OpenRouter (for ebc000) setup guide
• Example: [not tested] Azure OpenAI (previously requested)
• Example: [tested] Locally served GPT4All (for laurent, and everyone else who showed interest) setup guide
  • This is an open source, offline model (you may in fact choose from several available models), that you can install and run on a laptop. It can be used for chat, and potentially also for related notes (embeddings didn't work for me, probably due to a gpt4all issue, but related notes already support the USE offline model).
  • This solution for an offline model is not ideal, as it may be technically challenging for a user to run their own server, but at the moment this workaround looks like the only viable solution, and doesn't involve a lot of steps.
• Example: [not tested] LocalAI
  • This is another self-hosted server that supports many models, in case you run into issues with GPT4All.

• Annotations
  • This release introduces the toolbar button / command Annotate note with Jarvis. It can automatically annotate a note based on its content in 4 ways: By setting the title of the note; by adding a summary section; by adding links to related notes; and by adding tags. Each of these 4 features can be turned on or off in the settings in order to customize the behavior of the command. In addition, each sub-command can be run separately. For more information see this guide.
• System message
  • You may edit it in the settings to inform Jarvis who he is, what is his purpose, and provide more information about yourself and your interests, in order to customize Jarvis' responses.

• new: global commands for chat with notes

  • any command that appears in a "jarvis" code block will set its default behavior for the current chat / note
  • you may override this default by using the command again within a specific prompt in the chat

  • for example:

        ```jarvis
        Context: This is the default context for each prompt in the chat.
        Search: This is the default search query.
        Not context: This is the default text that will be excluded from semantic search, and appended to every prompt.

• changed default Hugging Face embedding model to paraphrase-multilingual-mpnet-base-v2

- TypeScript
Published by alondmnt over 2 years ago

joplin-plugin-jarvis - v0.5.0

This release includes many improvements under the hood, such as better chat processing, error handling, note chunking, and token counting (for example, no need to set max tokens in the settings in most cases). Most importantly, this version introduces new models for document embedding (related notes) and text generation (ask, research, chat). Adding other models in the future will be easier.

Personally, for the time being, I'm probably going to stay with the offline USE for related notes and the online gpt-3.5-turbo-16k for chat. The latter model that was introduced recently by OpenAI provides a large context window (high Max tokens) that is great for text summarization (including literature reviews / research), and for chatting with your notes (by increasing Memory tokens you can get a lot more context into the conversation).

• New chat / ask / research models

  • Anything on Hugging Face (deafult: LaMini-Flan-T5-783M)
    • The great news are that HF has a free inference API (no need to set an API key)
    • But do note, that the free version only supports the smaller (less sophisticated) models, yet they're still worth a try. The default model should work fast and reasonably well, all considered, but it's not the state of the art. If you're willing to pay for compute, you can get access to all hosted models
  • OpenAI
    • Extended-context gpt-3.5-turbo-16k
    • Everyone should also have access now to the long-awaited gpt-4
    • Deprecated a few old models of GPT-3

• New semantic search / related notes models (embeddings)

  • OpenAI (text-embedding-ada-002)
    • As far as I know, this model can process code blocks. In order to enable code processing, check the setting "Notes: Include code blocks in DB"
    • This model is multi-lingual. I could not find official documentation for this, but it is likely to work OK with many European languages. It doesn't seem to support Asian languages that well
  • Anything on Hugging Face (default: paraphrase-xlm-r-multilingual-v1)
    • I had good experience with HF embeddings
    • The default model is multi-lingual (trained on 50+ languages), and works well for a diverse set of languages
  • Some comments
    • These online models may be faster than the default (offline) model if you're using an old machine
    • You can try out a few models and switch between them. Jarvis will index your notes in a separate database for each and load the relevant results
    • You may need to adjust the setting Minimal note similarity when switching to a new model, in order to get the most relevant results displayed in the Related Notes panel
    • I couldn't get an additional offline model to work properly (and specifically transformers.js), perhaps next time (PRs are welcome)

• Chat with notes features

  • Added a new user guide
  • The note database version has changed, and you will be asked to upgrade the DB
  • Only commands that appear in the last user prompt apply
  • New commands: Context: and Not Context:
  • Improved Search: command so that selected blocks must contain the search keywords
  • Here is a recap of all available chat commands:

| Command | Description | Content included
in Jarvis prompt | Content included
in context search | |----------------|---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|----------------------------------|-----------------------------------| | Notes: | The following list of note IDs (or internal
links) will be the source for chat context | No | Yes | | Search: | The following Joplin search query will
be used to search for related notes
(in addition to semantic search), and
search keywords must appear in the
selected context | No | Yes | | Context: | The following text will be the one
used to semantically search for related
notes instead of the entire note | No | Yes | | Not Context: | The following text will be excluded
from semantic search (e.g., it can be used
to define Jarvis' role), but the rest of the
conversation will still be used | Yes | No |

joplin-plugin-jarvis - v0.4.4

This release adds a number of experimental features that help you shape the context that Jarvis gets from your notes. Most of these are disabled by default until we gather more feedback, so look them up in the settings.

• preview command (Tools-->Jarvis-->Preview chat notes context) (following @davadev 's feature request)
  • see the exact context that will be sent to the model previewed in the related notes panel
  • all of the new features below will be reflected in the preview, so you can experiment with these settings and see how they affect the resulting chat context
• prompt commands
  • Notes: this command, when it appears in the chat prompt (in a new line), specifies the note IDs for the context (following @davadev 's feature request)
  • Search: this command, when it appears in the chat prompt (in a new line), uses Joplin search to retrieve relevant notes
  • you may combine both commands in your prompts (see example)
  • hard constraint: this mechanism replaces the usual search for related notes based on chat content and gives you (almost) complete control over the context that is selected. that is, only notes that come up in search, or listed in notes will be considered

markdown User: Hi Jarvis, please summarize information on finger spins in the following notes. Notes: [abcd](:/9b3e075fea954195b79d4238132dbe3b), 456f02ffc4984ef7bc9c117f1589f3dd Search: yoyo competition tag:2018

• note similarity and chat context can take links into account (following @davadev 's feature request)
  • soft constraint: the content of the chat/note is still taken into account, but any links that appear in the note will be used to refine the search for related notes. that is, there is no guarantee that the linked notes will be selected to be included in the chat context
  • set the weight given to links in the settings (start with values in the range 20-50)
• extension of the blocks (note chunks) sent to GPT
  • attaching the previous X blocks in the note to each selected block
  • attaching the next X blocks in the note
  • attaching the X most similar notes to the block in the DB
  • check the advanced settings to set these, and increase the "Memory tokens" setting to squeeze more blocks into the prompt
• minimal block length
  • set to 100 chars by default (can be adjusted in the settings)
  • shorter blocks will be excluded
• welcome message before initializing the note DB (following @SteveShank 's issue)
  • with explanations and an option to postpone the process

• Related notes

  • Find notes based on semantic similarity to the currently open note, or to selected text. This is done locally, without sending the content of your notes to a remote server. Notes are displayed in a dedicated panel. To run semantic search based on selected text, click on the Find related notes (toolbar button or context menu option).
  • Coincidentally, this turned out to be semantically similar to a longstanding plugin, but adds some technical improvements.
  • I will add support for multilingual online models in the next release, but I wanted this to be an offline feature first, as some users may feel uncomfortable sending their entire Joplin database to a third party. I believe that in most cases this will also run faster.
  • The current offline model (Google's Universal Sentence Encoder) performs well, but its main drawback is that it only supports English (sorry, I'm not a native either).

• Chat with your notes

  • To add additional context to your conversation based on your notes, select the command Chat with your notes (from the Tools/Jarvis menu). Relevant short excerpts from your notes will be sent to OpenAI in addition to the usual conversation prompt / context. To exclude certain notes from this feature, add the tag #exclude.from.jarvis to the notes you wish to exclude. The regular chat is still available, and will not send out any of your notes. You may switch between regular chat and note-based chat on the same note.

• Improved token length estimation.

• Typo fix by @Wladefant.

joplin-plugin-jarvis - v0.3.0

Jarvis is now connected to the web! (if you choose to)

• added: new model set as default
  • the gpt-3.5-turbo model is the one behind ChatGPT. its responses are a lot cheaper and are much faster (at least they used to be in the first few days). check the settings to see that you have it selected. this is great timing, because for the next new feature Jarvis needs to make many queries. personally, the switch was not as smooth as I anticipated, and it took me a couple of days to adjust my prompts in order to get good responses from the model. in the end, though, I'm mostly happy with the new results.

• added: new command "Research with Jarvis"

  • "Research with Jarvis" generates automatic academic literature reviews. just write what you're interested in as free text, and optionally adjust the search parameters (high max_tokens is recommended). wait 2-3 minutes for all the output to appear in the note (depending on internet traffic). Jarvis will update the content as it finds new information on the web (using Semantic Scholar, Crossref, Elsevier, Springer & Wikipedia databases). in the end you will get a report with the following sections: title, prompt, research. questions, queries, references, review and follow-up questions. this is not Bing AI or the cool Elicit project, but even a small DIY tool can do quite a lot with the help of a large language model. I'll write more about how it's done in the future.
  • sources of information: Jarvis currently supports 2 search engines (and Wikipedia), and uses various paper/abstract repositories. as a general rule, you're likely to get better results when operating from a university campus or IP address, because institutions usually have access to more papers. the 2 search engines have complementary features, and I recommend trying both.
    • Semantic Scholar: (default) search is usually faster, more flexible (likely to find something related to any prompt), and it requires no API key. however, it has a tendency to prefer obscure, uncited papers.
    • Scopus: search is slower, and stricter, but tends to find higher impact papers. it requires registering for a free API key
  • Jarvis is a Joplin assistant first and foremost, but this feature was also ported to a VSCode extension.

• contributions: thanks to @ryanfreckleton for fixing a prompt typo (#2).

joplin-plugin-jarvis - v0.2.0

chat with Jarvis

• new command: Chat with Jarvis (Cmd+Shift+C). this is the homemade equivalent of ChatGPT within a Joplin note. each time you run the command Jarvis will append its response to the note at the current cursor position (given the previous content that both of you created). or it will try to extend its own response if you didn't add anything. therefore, this essentially serves as a general-purpose autocomplete command. repeat the command a few times to replace the response with a new one.

prompt templates

• new: predefined and customizable prompt templates (check the settings). quickly select a combination of an instruction, a format for the response, a character that Jarvis will play, and perhaps add a nudge towards thinking more analytically than usual. this utilizes some of the techniques from this recommended tutorial, and draws inspiration from @sw-yx's very cool reverse prompting project. the new prompts are a work in progress. help me improve them, and add new useful templates to the database.
• new: select whether to show or hide the input prompt in the response.

stability

• improved: lost queries display error messages with info from OpenAI.
• new: auto-retry sending the query to OpenAI (adjusted if needed) when pressing the OK button in the error dialog.

look and feel

• improved: dark theme support.
• new: dedicated Jarvis sub-menu under Tools.
