Observer KB: new app for ChatGPT/Claude PDF knowledge extraction

- New branch: observer-kb
- PRD: apps/observer-kb/docs/PRD.md
- ChatGPT PDF parser: extracts conversation turns (user/assistant)
- Upload portal: pure HTML/JS (no WASM), drag & drop, progress bars
- Browse: view ingested datasets with preview
- Search: semantic search across embedded conversations (HNSW)
- Served on :3400 via systemd (observer-kb.service)
- Uses Lakehouse core for storage, query, vectors, AI

# PRD: Observer Knowledge Base
**Status:** Active
**Created:** 2026-03-28
**Owner:** J
**Branch:** `observer-kb`
**Parent:** Lakehouse core (crates/)
---
## Problem
AI conversations (ChatGPT, Claude, etc.) generate massive amounts of knowledge — decisions, research, code, strategies, troubleshooting — that disappear into PDF exports and chat logs. There's no way to:
- Search across hundreds of conversations by meaning
- Find "what did I discuss about X six months ago?"
- Compare approaches across different conversations
- Build a reusable knowledge base from past AI interactions
- Track which ideas worked and which didn't
## Solution
An upload portal + knowledge extraction pipeline built on the Lakehouse infrastructure. Upload ChatGPT/Claude PDFs → extract conversations → chunk and embed → searchable knowledge base with comparison tools.
---
## Architecture
```
Upload Portal (web UI)
│
├── Upload large PDFs (chunked upload for big files)
├── Progress tracking per file
└── Visual extraction preview
│
▼
Extraction Pipeline (uses Lakehouse ingestd)
│
├── PDF text extraction (lopdf)
├── Conversation turn parsing (user/assistant)
├── Topic detection
├── Metadata extraction (dates, titles, participants)
└── Quality scoring (how useful was this conversation?)
│
▼
Lakehouse Storage
│
├── conversations table (id, title, source, date, turns, topic)
├── turns table (conversation_id, turn_num, role, content)
├── topics table (topic, conversation_ids, summary)
└── vectors/ (embedded turns for semantic search)
│
▼
Knowledge Interface
│
├── Search: "what did I discuss about Kubernetes?"
├── Compare: conversation A vs B on same topic
├── Timeline: when did I first explore this idea?
├── Extract: pull key decisions/code/strategies
└── Playbook: which approaches worked?
```
## Tech Stack
Uses Lakehouse core — NOT a separate codebase:
- **Storage:** Lakehouse storaged (Parquet on object storage)
- **Catalog:** Lakehouse catalogd (metadata, PII, lineage)
- **Query:** Lakehouse queryd (DataFusion SQL)
- **Vectors:** Lakehouse vectord (HNSW search, RAG)
- **AI:** Lakehouse aibridge → Ollama
- **New:** Upload portal (standalone HTML/JS — NOT Dioxus WASM)
## Why HTML/JS for the Upload Portal
- No 39MB WASM payload
- Chunked file upload (XMLHttpRequest with progress)
- Works on any browser
- Fast to iterate
- The Dioxus UI can coexist for the SQL/Ask features
---
## Phases
### Phase 1: Upload Portal
- Chunked file upload (handles 100MB+ PDFs)
- Upload progress bar per file
- Batch upload (drag & drop multiple)
- File list with status (uploading, processing, done, failed)
- Served as static HTML from the gateway
### Phase 2: Extraction Pipeline
- ChatGPT PDF parser (conversation turns, titles, roles)
- Claude PDF parser (similar structure)
- Generic PDF fallback (page-based)
- Extraction preview: see what was extracted before committing
- Auto-embed extracted turns
### Phase 3: Knowledge Browser
- Search across all conversations by meaning
- Filter by date, topic, source
- View individual conversations with turns
- Highlight matching content in search results
### Phase 4: Comparison Tools
- Side-by-side conversation comparison
- Topic tracking across conversations over time
- "Best approach" extraction from successful conversations
- Playbook builder: curate successful patterns
---
## Data Model
```sql
-- Conversations (one per PDF/chat export)
conversations:
conversation_id TEXT PRIMARY KEY
title TEXT
source TEXT -- "chatgpt", "claude", "other"
source_file TEXT
date TEXT
turn_count INTEGER
total_chars INTEGER
topics TEXT -- pipe-separated
summary TEXT -- AI-generated
-- Individual turns
turns:
turn_id TEXT PRIMARY KEY
conversation_id TEXT
turn_number INTEGER
role TEXT -- "user", "assistant"
content TEXT
char_count INTEGER
has_code BOOLEAN
page_number INTEGER
-- Vector embeddings (via vectord)
-- Stored in vectors/observer_kb.parquet
```
---
## Upload Requirements
- Max file size: 500MB per PDF
- Chunked upload: 5MB chunks with resume on failure
- Batch: up to 50 files at once
- Progress: per-file percentage + overall
- Dedup: skip already-ingested files (content hash)
---
## Non-Goals (for now)
- Live chat ingestion (only PDF exports)
- Editing conversations
- Multi-user access control
- Real-time collaboration
