Ubiquité v0.1.11

🖼️ Ubiquité v0.1.11

🚀 Release: Default CLIP Reranker

This release implements a new Clip based reranker and set in as default reranker.

---

✨ What’s New

🧠 Default Reranker → ClipReranker

Ubiquité now ships with ClipReranker as the default image reranker.
It uses a lightweight MobileCLIP model by default, giving semantic ranking while keeping latency low.

You can, of course, override this in your config.toml, but the default is now:

[images_search.reranker]
class = "ClipReranker"

[images_search.reranker.config]
model_name = "hf-hub:apple/MobileCLIP-S1-OpenCLIP"
device = "auto"

This change replaces the old SizeReranker as the main fallback.

---

📚 Documentation Upgrade (README)

I know README is not a suitable documentation but let's pretend

The README now includes:

• A full explanation of how image search works
• Clear setup instructions for ClipReranker
• A link to available CLIP models
• Guidance for writing your own reranker
• References to the ImageResult class and registry usage

This makes the module fully discoverable for contributors and advanced users.

---

🔧 Config Changes

If you're upgrading from v0.1.10 and using SizeReranker, you should update your config.toml to match the new default:

[images_search.reranker]
class = "ClipReranker"

[images_search.reranker.config]
model_name = "hf-hub:apple/MobileCLIP-S1-OpenCLIP"
device = "auto"

Voyage example remains unchanged:

[images_search.reranker]
class = "VoyageReranker"
[images_search.reranker.config]
model = "voyage-multimodal-3"
api_key = "YOUR_API_KEY"

I strongly recommand you to use the new ClipReranker because it's free, local, reliable and fast.

Ubiquité v0.1.10

📷 Ubiquité v0.1.10

🚀 Release: Image Search & Reranker Architecture

This update introduces a major new module: built-in image search, fully integrated into Ubiquité.
It’s a fresh feature, and it lays the groundwork for future multimedia capabilities.
As usual, this feature is intended to be as configurable as possible.

---

✨ New Features

🖼️ Image Search — Brand New

The model can now generate dedicated Searx image queries, fetch results, and pass them through a reranker.
This allow you to search for relevant images based on the conversation context.

🧠 Image Rerankers (Extensible)

Two rerankers are included:

• VoyageAI Multimodal — embedding-based, great accuracy (requires an API key).
• Size Reranker — prioritizes larger images, zero external dependencies (and set as default).

Size reranker is intended to be usable as a fallback when no API keys are available ans an example of custom reranker implementation.

The reranker system was designed to be extremely easy to extend.
If you want to implement your own logic, check out backend/infrastructure/rerankers/size.py — it’s short, clear, and a perfect starting point.
Contributions are very welcome.

---

🛠️ Still in Progress

• Improving image retrieval speed.
• More reranking strategies.

Configuration updates

As for configuration, please add this to your config.toml:

[images_search.reranker]
class = "SizeReranker"
[images_search.reranker.config]
metric = "area"

And for voyage

[images_search.reranker]
class = "VoyageReranker"
[images_search.reranker.config]
model = "voyage-multimodal-3"
api_key= "YOUR_VOYAGE_API_KEY"

Ubiquité v0.1.9

🪶 Ubiquité v0.1.9

🚀 Release: Follow-Ups & API Polish

This version makes Ubiquité’s conversational flow more natural and its codebase cleaner than ever. (there is still many ways to improve code quality and readability)

✨ New & Improved

💬 Follow-Up Functionality — You can now trigger contextual follow-up actions directly from messages. This opens the way for smarter interactions and more dynamic UI responses. I think we can find a better prompt but for now the best one i found is in the sample config.

🧩 API Cleanup — Imports and structure have been reorganized for clarity, improving maintainability and speeding up backend iterations.

Ubiquité v0.1.8

🚀 Release: Smarter Geocoding & Safer Prompts

This update refines Ubiquité’s internals, making maps more configurable, prompts more stable, and your overall experience smoother than ever.

✨ New & Improved

🧭 Custom Geocoder Configuration — You can now define your own geocoder classes and fine-tune rate limiting directly from the TOML config. This opens the door to advanced setups without touching the code.

🧹 Prompt Sanitization Fix — Resolved a LangChain formatting bug where curly braces caused message crashes in both users and assistants messages. Prompts are now fully sanitized and crash-proof.
