    • Default context including current page name and content
    • Customizable chat context via Space Lua (e.g. current date or other dynamic values)
    • Track token usage against model's token limit (caches LiteLLM's public json)
  • Add a modal version of the same assistant chat
  • New agent system for customizable personas with specific context and tools (e.g. "silverbullet lua expert")
    • Create custom agents via Space Lua (ai.agents.myagent = {...})
    • Create page-based agents with meta/template/aiAgent tag
    • Tool filtering with whitelist (tools) or blacklist (toolsExclude)

    • Tools defined via Space Lua in ai.tools table
    • Approval system for tools that modify data (shows diff preview)
    • Built-in tools: - read_note - Read page content or specific sections - list_pages - List pages with filtering options - get_page_info - Get page metadata - create_note - Create new pages - update_note - Update page content (replace, append, prepend) - search_replace - Find and replace text - update_frontmatter - Update YAML frontmatter keys - rename_note - Rename pages with backlink updates - navigate - Navigate to pages or positions - eval_lua - Execute Lua expressions - ask_user - Get immediate feedback from the user
    • Updated default system prompt to include instructions for tools when enabled

  • Add support for structured output
  • Connectivity test now includes structured output and tool usage tests
  • Migrated commands to Space Lua - AI: Suggest Page Name - AI: Generate tags for note - AI: Generate Note FrontMatter - AI: Enhance Note
  • Created an initial version of a benchmark system to verify if specific models can correctly use tools for sbai
  • Add a new provider-based configuration to configure a provider like Ollama once and load models dynamically, instead of configuring each model separately

0.5.0 (2025-12-15)

SilverBullet v2 Support

  • BREAKING: Now requires SilverBullet v2.3.0 or later
  • Migrated from SETTINGS/SECRETS pages to Space Lua configuration (config.set {})
  • API keys now configured via ai.keys in config (e.g., ai.keys.OPENAI_API_KEY)
  • Uses system.getConfig() instead of deprecated system.getSpaceConfig()
  • Removed all server vs client logic - everything runs in the browser now
  • Moved embedding search and connectivity test pages to new virtual page API
  • See SilverBullet v2 Migration Guide for upgrade instructions

Proxy Configuration

  • Added useProxy option to all provider types (text, embedding, image)
  • When useProxy: false, requests bypass SilverBullet's server proxy and go directly from the browser
  • Useful for local services like Ollama running on the same machine as the browser
  • SSE streaming now properly transforms URLs and headers for the proxy
  • Note: useProxy: true requires Silverbullet >= 2.3.1 or Edge as of 2025-12-11 for PR #1721

Removed deprecated stuff

  • Removed deprecated commands (use Templated Prompts instead):
    • AI: Summarize Note and open summary
    • AI: Insert Summary
    • AI: Call OpenAI with Note as context
    • AI: Stream response with selection or note as prompt
  • Removed deprecated config settings:
    • ai.openAIBaseUrl - use baseUrl in model config instead
    • ai.dallEBaseUrl - use baseUrl in model config instead
    • ai.requireAuth - use requireAuth in model config instead
    • ai.secretName - use ai.keys.* instead
    • ai.provider - use provider in model config instead

Library Changes

  • BREAKING: The AICore Library is now merged into the main plug - no separate install needed
  • Converted library scripts from Space Script to Space Lua
  • Convert AIPrompts to examples and add support for defining them using Lua

Other Changes

  • Better logging when SSE events have errors
  • Add support for retrieving list of models from OpenAI and Ollama providers
  • Add a Connectivity Test command and page to test whether an API is working
  • Docs site now uses mkdocs only (removed deprecated silverbullet-pub :( )
  • Plug now distributed via GitHub Releases (ghr: prefix in Library Manager) only, the compiled .js file will no longer be in git and neither will the compiled lua library.
