Full Changelog

v0.4.0...v0.5.0

v0.4.0

What's New

Anthropic Claude API Provider

Full support for Claude models via the Anthropic API. Enable with the anthropic feature flag.

• Supports Claude 3.5 Sonnet, Claude 3 Opus, Haiku, and all Claude model variants
• Streaming support with tool calling
• Full LLMClient trait implementation

Token Usage Tracking

LLM responses now include token usage statistics (prompt_tokens, completion_tokens, total_tokens) across all providers.

Fixes

Windows MSVC Compatibility

• Added compile-time error for local-embeddings feature on Windows MSVC targets
• Prevents cryptic ort-sys linker errors by failing fast with a helpful message

Security

• Updated lru to 0.16.3 to fix RUSTSEC-2026-0002

Breaking Changes

full feature no longer includes local-embeddings

The local-embeddings feature has been removed from the full feature bundle due to ort-sys linker errors on Windows MSVC.

Migration:

• Windows users: Use remote embedding APIs or WSL
• Linux/macOS users: Use full-local-embeddings feature if you need local embeddings

New Feature Bundles

• full-local-embeddings - Full features with local embeddings (Linux/macOS only)
• full-ui-local-embeddings - Full features with UI and local embeddings (Linux/macOS only)

Installation

cargo install ares-server

Or with specific features:

cargo install ares-server --features "anthropic,openai,full"

v0.3.2 - Query Typo Correction & Embedding Cache

What's New

Query-Level Typo Correction

Fuzzy search now automatically corrects typos in search queries using vocabulary built from indexed documents.

• QueryCorrection struct for vocabulary-based word correction
• search_bm25_with_correction() and search_hybrid_with_correction() methods
• Uses Levenshtein distance for domain-specific corrections
• Closes GitHub issue #4

Embedding Cache

New in-memory LRU cache for embedding vectors to avoid re-computation.

• EmbeddingCache trait with get/set/invalidate/clear/stats methods
• LruEmbeddingCache with SHA-256 hashing, configurable max entries, optional TTL
• CachedEmbeddingService wrapper for transparent caching
• Thread-safe with parking_lot RwLock

Documentation Updates

• Updated KNOWN_ISSUES.md, DIR-24_RAG_IMPLEMENTATION_PLAN.md, FUTURE_ENHANCEMENTS.md
• Removed stale session log file
