limiting the exact limit search window to 5000 records - #358
Conversation
📝 WalkthroughWalkthroughThe exact-match retrieval path now reads a configurable candidate cap, clamps it to a hard ceiling, counts filtered documents before distance computation, and rejects oversized candidate sets with an HTTP 422. ChangesExact-match candidate safety
Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~20 minutes Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to The exact-match safety limit can still permit oversized distance computations, while a negative configuration can reject every exact-match request. The cap logic should be corrected before this change is merged. Sequence Diagram(s)sequenceDiagram

Normalize non-positive candidate caps.
If KB_EXACT_MATCH_MAX_CANDIDATES=-1, the controller returns -1 and the service retains it. Then even a zero candidate count is greater than the cap, so every exact-match request returns HTTP 422.

Count embedding rows that exact matching can score.
This query counts knowledge_base_documents rows only. get_image_embedding_dino_exact_match computes a distance for each knowledge_base_embeddings row joined to a document. A document with multiple embeddings can make the exact query score more than the configured cap. A document without an embedding can also cause a false rejection.
Join knowledge_base_embeddings with knowledge_base_documents here and count the joined embedding rows.
Proposed fix
- SELECT COUNT(*) AS candidate_count
- FROM {KnowledgeBaseDocuments.__tablename__} d
+ SELECT COUNT(*) AS candidate_count
+ FROM {KnowledgeBaseEmbeddings.__tablename__} e
+ JOIN {KnowledgeBaseDocuments.__tablename__} d ON e.document_id = d.id
WHERE d.knowledge_base_id = :kb_id

Use one database snapshot for the cap check and exact query.
Line 173 completes the count in one repository session. The exact query uses another session after the inference request. Documents can be inserted after the count and before the exact query. The exact query can then compute distances for more than effective_cap candidates.
Fetch the embedding first. Then run the count and exact query in one repeatable-read transaction, or enforce the cap in one SQL operation.
