📌 Overview

This PR delivers a full-stack architectural overhaul and UI/UX modernization of the AI Collection Creator across the Python microservice, Dashboard API, and Web Dashboard.

Key highlights include:

  1. Interactive ERD Schema Canvas Visualizer with pan, zoom, reference node highlighting, and dual view (Canvas ⇋ Table).
  2. Session Lifecycle & Rate-Limiting Fixes: Resolves permanent lockout bug by attaching a 2-hour TTL to Redis iteration counters and cleaning up stale sessions.
  3. Pydantic Model & Prompt Enhancements: Adds support for items (Arrays), fields (nested Objects), and unique attributes so LLM schema intent is never lost.
  4. ChatGPT-Style Open Workspace: Clean, unboxed floating chat workspace with auto-growing textarea and quick-start suggestion chips.

🛠️ Changes by Layer

1. 🐍 Python AI Microservice (apps/python-service)

  • Pydantic Model Upgrades (routers/ai.py):
    • Added items: dict | None, fields: list[CollectionField] | None, and unique: bool = False to CollectionField.
    • Nested objects and array item types are now strictly validated and passed to consumers without truncation.
  • Refined System Prompt:
    • Explicit instructions for Array items format (e.g. {"type": "String"}) and Object sub-schemas.
    • Upgraded model assertions to llama-3.3-70b-versatile.
  • Test Suite Updates: Updated test_byok.py and test_collection_creator.py to match the latest structured output specifications.

2. ⚡ Dashboard API (apps/dashboard-api)

  • Session Lifecycle & Rate Limiting (ai.controller.js):
    • Added EX 7200 (2 hours) TTL to ai:cc:iterations:{projectId}:{devId} to prevent permanent lockout after 3 turns.
    • Updated clearCollectionCreatorSession to atomically flush both the chat transcript and iteration counter.
    • Added auto-recovery logic: if a session expired, any leftover iteration counter is reset to 0.
    • Returned iterationLimit dynamically in the API response.
  • Code Quality & Security:
    • Consolidated duplicate Project.findOne queries in queryBuilder into a single query with selected BYOK fields.
    • Moved mongoose require to module level.
    • Added explicit warning logs if BYOK decryption returns null.

3. 🎨 Web Dashboard (apps/web-dashboard)

  • Interactive Schema Canvas Visualizer (SchemaCanvasViewer.jsx):
    • Dot-Grid Canvas Workspace: Infinite background with drag-to-pan and mouse-wheel / button zoom controls (0.45x to 1.6x).
    • Database Entity Node Cards: Clean ERD cards with implicit _id (ObjectId) primary key badges and field counts.
    • Color-Coded Field Type Pills: Distinct palette for String, Number, Boolean, Date, Ref, Array<Type>, and Object.
    • Interactive Reference Links: Hovering over → collection highlights and glows the targeted collection node.
    • Dual-View Switcher: Instant toggle between Canvas (ERD) mode and Table (List) mode.
  • AI Chat UX Enhancements (CollectionCreatorAgent.jsx):
    • Quick-Start Suggestion Chips: 4 starter prompts (🛒 E-commerce, 📋 Project management, 📝 Blog, 🎓 Learning platform) on empty state.
    • "New Chat" Button: Clears the conversation and resets server-side session.
    • Safety Confirmation: Added confirmation prompt before executing bulk collection creation.
    • Manual Navigation: Replaced auto-redirect timers with a "Continue to Database →" button.
    • Dynamic Iterations Badge: Dynamic dot counter based on backend limits.

🧪 Verification & Testing

  • Python Microservice Tests (pytest): 15 / 15 passed in 6.00s
  • Dashboard API Tests (jest): 154 / 154 passed
  • Web Dashboard Lint (eslint): 0 errors, 0 warnings
  • Web Dashboard Build (vite build): Production bundle built successfully

Review Change Stack

Warning

Review limit reached

@yash-pouranik, you've reached your PR review limit, so we couldn't start this review.

Next review available in: 37 minutes

You've used all free OSS reviews for now. Wait for the free limit to reset to keep reviewing this public repository.

How can I continue?

After more reviews become available, a review can be triggered using the @coderabbitai review command as a PR comment. Alternatively, push new commits to this PR.

To avoid repeated limits, reduce automatic review volume by pausing incremental auto-reviews earlier, using label-based review opt-in, excluding WIP or generated PR titles, or requesting reviews manually when the PR is ready. If your team needs uninterrupted high-volume reviews, an organization admin can enable usage-based reviews.

How do review limits work?

CodeRabbit enforces per-developer PR review limits for each organization. Most developers receive the normal plan review availability.

For paid Pro and Pro+ PR reviews, CodeRabbit uses adaptive limits for sustained high-volume activity. When a developer's recent PR review activity reaches the 95th percentile or higher among CodeRabbit users, additional reviews become available more gradually as earlier reviews age out of the rolling window.

Please refer docs for additional details.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The PR extends AI collection creation with nested schema fields, unique metadata, dynamic iteration limits, session cleanup, improved BYOK diagnostics, and a new interactive schema viewer with canvas and table modes.

Changes

AI Collection Creator

Layer / File(s) Summary
Backend schema and session flow
apps/dashboard-api/src/controllers/ai.controller.js
The controller loads project BYOK fields, logs decryption failures, sanitizes nested schemas, manages Redis iteration counters, returns iterationLimit, and clears session keys concurrently.
Nested collection schema contract
apps/python-service/routers/ai.py, apps/python-service/tests/test_byok.py, apps/python-service/tests/test_collection_creator.py
CollectionField supports unique fields, array items, and nested object fields. Prompt validation and BYOK model expectations are updated. Validation failures now expect HTTP 400.
Collection creator agent integration
apps/web-dashboard/src/components/CollectionCreatorAgent.jsx
The agent adds stable message IDs, preset prompts, dynamic iteration tracking, server-side reset, bulk-insert confirmation, and integration with SchemaCanvasViewer.
Interactive schema viewer
apps/web-dashboard/src/components/SchemaCanvasViewer.jsx
The new viewer supports canvas and table modes, zooming, panning, references, nested fields, insertion results, reset controls, and database navigation.

Estimated code review effort: 4 (Complex) | ~45 minutes

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to 8325b

This change adds AI-driven collection creation, session resets, rate limiting, and schema visualization, but the current implementation can reject valid nested array schemas, allow concurrent requests to exceed the turn limit, report a failed chat reset as successful, and hide deeply nested fields from the preview. These issues can block collection creation or leave users with misleading chat and schema state, so the PR is not merge-ready until the major correctness issues are addressed.

Inline comments:
In `@apps/dashboard-api/src/controllers/ai.controller.js`:
- Around line 211-218: Update the iteration handling around the controller’s
counter read and the write before forwardToPythonService so reservation is
atomic: check the configured limit and increment the counter in one Redis Lua
script or transaction, while refreshing the session and iteration TTLs together.
Reject requests that exceed the limit before calling forwardToPythonService, and
remove the separate non-atomic read/overwrite flow.
- Around line 274-279: Recursively transform array item schemas at the bulk
payload boundary: update the Array handling in the AI controller’s
sanitizeFields flow and the f.items forwarding in CollectionCreatorAgent.jsx so
nested Object item fields convert name to key at every depth before
createCollectionSchema. Preserve the AI response’s name-based shape until this
conversion and retain existing defaults for non-object array items.

In `@apps/python-service/routers/ai.py`:
- Around line 48-50: Add validation to CollectionField for Object types
requiring fields to be present and non-empty, rejecting missing, None, and empty
fields before persistence. Add tests covering each invalid case while preserving
valid structured fields.

In `@apps/web-dashboard/src/components/CollectionCreatorAgent.jsx`:
- Around line 104-120: Update handleResetChat so an api.delete failure displays
an error notification and returns before clearing local state or showing the
success toast. Keep the existing state reset and “Chat reset” notification only
after the server deletion succeeds, allowing the user to retry the idempotent
request.
- Around line 249-254: Update the suggestion buttons in the SUGGESTIONS map to
disable when aiStatus is loading or iterationsLeft is zero, matching the
textarea and send button states while preserving the existing onClick behavior.

In `@apps/web-dashboard/src/components/SchemaCanvasViewer.jsx`:
- Around line 459-516: Update the field rendering used by the Canvas and Table
views to recurse through each CollectionField.fields hierarchy, including nested
Object fields at every depth. Extract or reuse a single recursive field renderer
for both views, while preserving existing type badges, required/unique
indicators, reference links, and view-specific layout styling.
