Context

Deployments need to switch between Whisper, MOSS, and compatible transcription services without runtime configuration edits.

Expected behavior

Admins can register, validate, and choose a default STT endpoint. Indexing uses the selected endpoint safely, including its credentials, language hint, request options, timeout, and per-worker concurrency.

Depends on #872. Split from #865.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features

    • Added speech-to-text as a supported model endpoint type.
    • Admins can configure STT models, language hints, concurrency, timeouts, and compatible providers.
    • Endpoint validation now checks transcription support and provides clearer feedback.
    • Transcription settings refresh automatically and retain fallback behavior.
    • Provider-specific transcription options and response formats are supported.
  • Bug Fixes

    • Duplicate endpoint creation now returns a clear conflict error.
    • Improved handling of credentials and unavailable services.
  • Documentation

    • Updated STT configuration, fallback, MOSS model selection, and transcription prompt guidance.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The change adds STT as a model endpoint type. It stores and seeds STT endpoints, validates transcription capability, resolves endpoints during audio parsing, supports endpoint-specific request settings, and adds STT configuration to the Admin UI and documentation.

Changes

Speech-to-text endpoint registry and validation

Layer / File(s) Summary
Endpoint registry and validation
openrag/core/config/..., openrag/api/..., openrag/services/orchestrators/..., openrag/services/persistence/..., tests/unit/...
STT becomes a supported endpoint type. The registry stores STT endpoints and seeds the default from transcriber settings. Database constraints, migrations, duplicate creation handling, API validation, and /audio/transcriptions capability probing are updated.

Live transcription endpoint resolution

Layer / File(s) Summary
Live transcription endpoint resolution
openrag/services/inference/parsers/openai_audio.py, openrag/services/workers/parsers/..., openrag/services/workers/indexer_pool.py, openrag/di/container.py, tests/unit/...
Audio parsing resolves the current STT endpoint, applies endpoint-specific concurrency and language settings, sends provider options, isolates credentials, and manages temporary clients. Workers hydrate the STT registry and pass resolvers through the parser stack.

Admin UI STT configuration

Layer / File(s) Summary
Admin UI STT configuration
ui/src/lib/api/models.ts, ui/src/pages/admin/models.tsx, ui/src/mocks/handlers.ts, docs/content/docs/documentation/env_vars.md, conf/config.yaml
The Admin UI adds STT endpoint management, language-hint handling, capability validation, STT-specific fields, and concurrency labels. Configuration comments and environment-variable documentation describe seed and fallback behavior.

Estimated code review effort: 4 (Complex) | ~60 minutes

Merge Risk: 🟠 High · up to b1a82

The PR allows administrators to send credentials and audio to selected HTTP(S) destinations, including potentially cleartext requests, while runtime changes can temporarily continue using obsolete endpoints or credentials after revocation. It also rejects valid STT configurations without a language hint and omits the new endpoint type from documentation, so merge should wait for these fixes.

Addressed the valid review findings in 1606cca: cleared STT credentials remain cleared, and the UI mock data now includes an STT endpoint. The HTTPS-only suggestion is not applied because private Docker and internal-network HTTP endpoints are a supported OpenRAG deployment model.

💡 Codex Review

normalizeEndpointUrl(endpoint) !== normalizeEndpointUrl(editing.endpoint) &&
!apiKey &&
(!submittedApiKey || submittedApiKey === REDACTED_SECRET)

P2 Badge Accept the replacement key when the endpoint URL changes

When an administrator edits an authenticated STT endpoint, changes its URL, and supplies the replacement api_key through Advanced Extra, this guard still treats the credential as absent because it checks only the dedicated apiKey state. The backend now intentionally prioritizes body.extra.api_key, and the submit path preserves that value, but validation returns here before sending it, so the migration cannot be saved unless the same key is re-entered in the dedicated field. Account for a non-placeholder validationExtra.api_key in this guard and in the stored-secret decision.
