Implement LLMInferenceActivity integration for Temporal workflows

Workflow Input Structure:
  ├─ question: User content for reasoning
  ├─ project: Project ID for scoping
  ├─ operations: Flags for link_entities, infer_facts, reason_query, summarize
  └─ llm_activity: Configuration for LLMInferenceActivity
       ├─ model: Selected based on complexity (reasoning|ornith:35b|qwen2.5:3b)
       ├─ system_prompt: Task-specific instruction (Zep-backed)
       ├─ user_prompt: Content to process
       ├─ temperature: 0.7 (reasoning) or 0.5 (validation)
       └─ max_tokens: 2048 (reasoning) or 512 (validation)

Model Selection:
  ├─ reason_query=true, summarize=true → reasoning (DeepSeek-R1, complex)
  ├─ reason_query=true, summarize=false → ornith:35b (medium)
  └─ reason_query=false → qwen2.5:3b (fast, <100ms)

System Prompts (handlers/llm_prompts.rs):
  ├─ entity_extraction_system_prompt(): Extract entities + relationships + facts
  ├─ reasoning_system_prompt(): Step-by-step reasoning + answers
  ├─ agent_capability_validation_prompt(): Validate agent capabilities
  └─ fact_validation_system_prompt(): Detect contradictions

Workflow Activity Execution:
  ├─ Temporal receives workflow input with llm_activity config
  ├─ ReasoningWorkflow orchestrates:
  │  ├─ Activity 1: RetrieveMemory (optional context)
  │  ├─ Activity 2: LLMInferenceActivity (calls /v1/chat/completions via gateway)
  │  │   └─ Retries: 3× with backoff (2s, 4s, 8s)
  │  │   └─ Timeout: 120s
  │  │   └─ JWT propagation: Authorization: Bearer header
  │  ├─ Activity 3: PersistResults (save to memory_entity/memory_edge)
  │  └─ Activity 4: SummarizeFindings (return results)
  ├─ Memory handler polls DESCRIBE_WORKFLOW (30× with 100ms delay, 3s timeout)
  └─ Returns ReasoningResult with answers, confidence, reasoning_steps

Changes:
  ├─ execute_reasoning_workflow(): Build llm_activity config with model selection
  ├─ select_llm_model(): Choose model based on operation complexity
  ├─ build_system_prompt(): Use Zep-inspired prompts for reasoning
  ├─ handlers/llm_prompts.rs: Centralized prompt templates (5 system + 4 user builders)
  ├─ AgentInitialization: Include llm_activity for capability validation
  └─ Fixed duplicate extract_jwt_token call in agent_handler.rs

Activity Contract:
  ├─ Workflow input includes llm_activity block
  ├─ Temporal passes to LLMInferenceActivity
  ├─ Activity substitutes {{ previous_output }} template variables
  ├─ Activity calls POST /v1/chat/completions with JWT header
  ├─ Activity returns { response, model, stop_reason, tokens_used }
  ├─ PersistResults activity stores results to DB
  └─ Workflow returns: question, answers[], confidence, reasoning_steps[]

Tests Added:
  + 14 new tests in llm_prompts.rs (prompt validation, user prompt builders)

# LLM Inference Activity Integration
## Overview
Memory service integrates with Temporal's **LLMInferenceActivity** for LLM-powered reasoning. The activity handles:
- Template variable substitution (`{{ previous_output.field }}`)
- LLM API calls via gateway (`POST /v1/chat/completions`)
- Retry logic (exponential backoff: 2s, 4s, 8s)
- JWT token propagation (Bearer header)
- Timeout management (120s per call)
## Architecture
```
Memory Handler (this service)
SynthesisClient.execute_workflow()
POST https://api.riotpiao.com/workflow (with JWT)
Temporal Workflow Executor
ReasoningWorkflow (defined in homelab-frontend)
├─ Activity 1: RetrieveMemory (fetch context)
├─ Activity 2: LLMInferenceActivity
│ ├─ model: "reasoning" | "ornith:35b" | "qwen2.5:3b"
│ ├─ system_prompt: "You are a knowledge extraction expert..."
│ ├─ user_prompt: "Extract entities from: {{ previous_output.memory }}"
│ ├─ auth_token: "{{ header.authorization }}" (from Memory call)
│ ├─ temperature: 0.7
│ ├─ max_tokens: 2048
│ ↓
│ Calls: POST api.riotpiao.com/v1/chat/completions
│ + Header: Authorization: Bearer {jwt}
│ + Retries: 3× with backoff (2s, 4s, 8s)
│ + Timeout: 120s
│ ↓
│ Returns: { response, model, stop_reason, tokens_used }
├─ Activity 3: PersistResults
│ ├─ Extract entities from LLM response
│ ├─ Insert into memory_entity table
│ ├─ Insert into memory_edge table
│ └─ Link in temporal_workflow_links table
└─ Activity 4: SummarizeFindings
└─ Return reasoning result
Workflow completes
Poll DESCRIBE_WORKFLOW
Return result to Memory handler
Return to user
```
## Request/Response Flow
### 1. Memory Handler Initiates Reasoning
```rust
// From handlers/unified_synthesis.rs
let workflow_input = json!({
"question": "Extract entities from this text...",
"project": "poimen",
"operations": {
"link_entities": true,
"infer_facts": true,
"reason_query": true,
"summarize": false
}
});
let workflow_req = WorkflowBuilder::new("ReasoningWorkflow")
.with_input(workflow_input)
.build();
// Calls: POST /workflow with JWT
let response = client.execute_workflow(workflow_req).await?;
// Response: { "data": { "workflow_id": "...", "run_id": "..." } }
```
### 2. Workflow START_WORKFLOW Request
```json
{
"action": "START_WORKFLOW",
"namespace": "poimen",
"payload": {
"workflow_id": "reasoning-abc123",
"workflow_type": "ReasoningWorkflow",
"task_queue": "synthesis",
"input": {
"question": "Extract entities from this text...",
"project": "poimen",
"operations": { ... }
}
}
}
```
### 3. LLMInferenceActivity Input (Internal)
Temporal constructs this (not Memory's responsibility):
```json
{
"type": "llm-inference",
"model": "reasoning",
"system_prompt": "You are a knowledge extraction expert. Extract all entities, relationships, and facts.",
"user_prompt": "Extract from: {{ workflow.input.question }}",
"temperature": 0.7,
"max_tokens": 2048,
"auth_token": "{{ workflow.auth_context.jwt }}"
}
```
### 4. LLMInferenceActivity Execution
Activity backend (homelab-frontend):
1. **Template substitution**:
```
user_prompt: "Extract from: Extract entities from this text..."
auth_token: "eyJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiIsInR5cCI6IkpXVCJ9..."
```
2. **LLM API call**:
```bash
POST https://api.riotpiao.com/v1/chat/completions
Authorization: Bearer eyJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiIsInR5cCI6IkpXVCJ9...
Content-Type: application/json
{
"model": "reasoning",
"messages": [
{ "role": "system", "content": "You are a knowledge extraction expert..." },
{ "role": "user", "content": "Extract from: Extract entities from this text..." }
],
"temperature": 0.7,
"max_tokens": 2048
}
```
3. **LLM Response**:
```json
{
"choices": [
{
"message": {
"content": "Entities found:\n1. Entity: 'Kubernetes' (Technology)\n2. Entity: 'Docker' (Technology)..."
}
}
],
"usage": { "prompt_tokens": 50, "completion_tokens": 200, "total_tokens": 250 }
}
```
4. **Activity Output**:
```json
{
"response": "Entities found:\n1. Entity: 'Kubernetes' (Technology)\n2. Entity: 'Docker' (Technology)...",
"model": "reasoning",
"stop_reason": "stop_sequence",
"tokens_used": 250
}
```
5. **Retry Logic** (if LLM call fails):
```
Attempt 1: Failed (network timeout)
→ Wait 2 seconds
Attempt 2: Failed (rate limited, 429)
→ Wait 4 seconds
Attempt 3: Failed (model overloaded)
→ Workflow error recorded
→ Fallback: proceed with best-effort result or fail workflow
```
### 5. PersistResults Activity (Custom)
Temporal's custom activity in homelab-frontend:
```json
{
"type": "persist-results",
"input": {
"workflow_id": "reasoning-abc123",
"llm_response": "Entities found:\n1. Kubernetes (Technology)...",
"project": "poimen"
}
}
```
Activity implementation:
```
1. Parse LLM response
2. Extract entities/facts
3. INSERT INTO memory_entity (name, summary, entity_type, contributed_by)
4. INSERT INTO memory_edge (source, relation, target)
5. INSERT INTO temporal_workflow_links (workflow_id, run_id, entity_id)
6. Return: { "entities_count": 2, "edges_count": 3 }
```
### 6. Workflow DESCRIBE_WORKFLOW Poll
Memory handler polls periodically:
```json
{
"action": "DESCRIBE_WORKFLOW",
"namespace": "poimen",
"payload": {
"workflow_id": "reasoning-abc123"
}
}
```
Response (while running):
```json
{
"data": {
"workflow_id": "reasoning-abc123",
"status": "RUNNING",
"last_update": "2025-01-30T10:05:00Z"
}
}
```
Response (when complete):
```json
{
"data": {
"workflow_id": "reasoning-abc123",
"status": "COMPLETED",
"result": {
"question": "Extract entities from this text...",
"answers": [
"Entities: Kubernetes, Docker",
"Relationships: Kubernetes uses Docker"
],
"confidence": 0.92,
"reasoning_steps": [
"Extracted all entities using NER",
"Identified entity types",
"Built relationship graph"
],
"entities_persisted": 2,
"edges_persisted": 3
}
}
}
```
## JWT Token Flow
### Header Propagation
**Memory Handler Request:**
```
POST /memory/synthesis
Authorization: Bearer eyJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiIsInR5cCI6IkpXVCJ9.eyJzdWIiOiJ1c2VyMTIzIn0...
Content-Type: application/json
{
"project": "poimen",
"content": "Extract entities...",
"reason_query": true
}
```
**Extract in Handler:**
```rust
let jwt = extract_jwt_token(&req)?; // "eyJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiIsInR5cCI6IkpXVCJ9..."
let client = SynthesisClient::new(
"https://api.riotpiao.com".to_string(),
jwt, // ← Stored in client
);
```
**POST /workflow with JWT:**
```
POST https://api.riotpiao.com/workflow
Authorization: Bearer eyJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiIsInR5cCI6IkpXVCJ9...
{
"action": "START_WORKFLOW",
"namespace": "poimen",
"payload": { ... }
}
```
**Temporal Workflow with JWT:**
```
ReasoningWorkflow receives:
- workflow input (question, project, operations)
- auth context (JWT from request header)
LLMInferenceActivity:
auth_token = "{{ workflow.auth_context.jwt }}"
Activity calls LLM with:
Authorization: Bearer eyJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiIsInR5cCI6IkpXVCJ9...
```
**JWT Validation at LLM:**
```
homelab-frontend proxy checks:
1. Signature valid (signed by Authentik)
2. Not expired
3. Has "llm:inference" capability
If valid:
→ Forward to LLM backend (reasoning/ollama/etc)
If invalid:
→ 401 Unauthorized
→ Activity retry or fail
```
## Model Selection
### Available Models
| Model | Use Case | Speed | Cost | Max Tokens |
|-------|----------|-------|------|------------|
| `reasoning` | Complex analysis, entity extraction | Slow (500-1000ms) | Free | 4096 |
| `ornith:35b` | General reasoning | Medium (300-500ms) | Free | 2048 |
| `ornith:13b` | Fast reasoning | Fast (100-200ms) | Free | 2048 |
| `qwen2.5:3b` | Quick tasks | Fastest (<100ms) | Free | 1024 |
### Selection Strategy
```rust
// From handlers/unified_synthesis.rs
let model = match body.operations.reason_query {
true => match body.operations.summarize {
true => "reasoning", // Complex: extract + reason + summarize
false => "ornith:35b", // Medium: extract + reason
},
false => "qwen2.5:3b", // Quick: only linking/inference (no reasoning)
};
```
## Error Handling
### Retry Behavior
LLMInferenceActivity automatically retries:
```
Attempt 1: Failed
Error: ConnectionError (network issue)
Backoff: 2 seconds
Attempt 2: Failed
Error: HTTPError 429 (rate limited)
Backoff: 4 seconds
Attempt 3: Failed
Error: HTTPError 500 (backend overload)
→ Workflow error recorded
→ No further retries
Result:
{
"success": false,
"error": "Max retries exceeded after 3 attempts",
"last_error": "HTTPError 500 from LLM backend"
}
```
### Terminal Errors (No Retry)
```
"Model not found: xyz"
→ Immediate failure (no retry)
→ Activity returns error
→ Workflow fails
"Context length exceeded"
→ Immediate failure (no retry)
→ Activity returns error
→ Workflow fails
"Invalid auth token"
→ Immediate failure (retry won't help)
→ Activity returns 401
→ Workflow fails
```
### Workflow Error Handling
```rust
// From handlers/workflow_poller.rs
match poll_workflow_until_complete(...).await {
Ok(("COMPLETED", Some(result))) => {
// Parse result into ReasoningResult
Ok(ReasoningResult { ... })
}
Ok(("COMPLETED", None)) => {
// Workflow succeeded but no result
Err("Workflow completed without result")
}
Ok((status, _)) => {
// Unexpected status
Err(format!("Unexpected workflow status: {}", status))
}
Err(e) => {
// Workflow failed or polling timeout
Err(e)
}
}
```
## Template Variables
LLMInferenceActivity supports Handlebars-style templates:
```json
{
"user_prompt": "Extract entities from: {{ previous_output.memory }}"
}
```
### Available Variables
```
{{ workflow.input.field }} // Input from ReasoningWorkflow
{{ previous_output.field }} // Output from prior activity
{{ workflow.auth_context.jwt }} // JWT from request header
{{ workflow.execution_id }} // Workflow execution ID
```
### Example Substitution
```
Before: "Extract from: {{ previous_output.memory }}"
Memory variable: "Kubernetes is a container orchestrator"
After: "Extract from: Kubernetes is a container orchestrator"
```
## Performance Considerations
### Latency Budget
```
ReasoningWorkflow Latency Breakdown:
RetrieveMemory activity: ~50-100ms
LLMInferenceActivity: ~500-1000ms (reasoning model)
├─ Template substitution: ~10ms
├─ LLM API call: ~400-900ms
└─ Response parsing: ~5ms
PersistResults activity: ~100-200ms
├─ Parse LLM response: ~10ms
├─ Extract entities: ~20ms
└─ DB inserts: ~70-170ms
SummarizeFindings activity: ~50ms
Total: ~750-1350ms (1.3 seconds typical)
Memory handler poll overhead:
├─ 30 polls × 100ms delay: 3000ms
└─ So total time: ~4-5 seconds (with polling)
```
### Optimization
1. **Use faster model for quick tasks**:
```rust
if body.content.len() < 500 {
model = "qwen2.5:3b"; // Fast
} else {
model = "reasoning"; // Accurate
}
```
2. **Cache frequent queries**:
```
If same question asked twice:
1st time: Call workflow → 4-5 seconds
2nd time: Cache hit → <1ms
```
3. **Batch processing** (if needed):
```
Use LLMBatchInferenceActivity:
- 3 prompts: ~1500ms (serial)
- vs 3 separate calls: ~4500ms (sequential)
```
## Production Checklist
