Environment / auth
  • BASE_DIR

    One document root; also the security boundary for file access. Defaults to the process working directory. Ignored when BASE_DIRS is set.

  • BASE_DIRS

    JSON array of document roots, e.g. ["/docs/a", "/docs/b"]. Takes precedence over BASE_DIR. An invalid value is a hard configuration error.

  • DB_PATH

    LanceDB index directory. Defaults to <first root>/.minirag/lancedb, so each corpus gets its own index.

  • CACHE_DIR

    Embedding model cache. Defaults to the platform user cache dir, so the ~220 MB model is downloaded once and shared.

  • MODEL_NAME

    fastembed model id. Changing it makes existing vectors incompatible with new queries; pair with a new DB_PATH or a full re-ingest.

  • MAX_FILE_SIZE

    Per-file size limit in bytes, enforced before parsing.

  • CHUNK_TOKEN_BUDGET

    Retrieval-unit size in the embedding model's own tokens. Range 16-128; the ceiling is the model's trained sequence length.

  • RAG_HYBRID_WEIGHT

    Keyword weight in the weighted RRF fusion, range 0.0-1.0. 0 is vector-only; higher values raise the BM25 contribution.

  • RAG_GROUPING

    Result grouping filter. 'similar' keeps only the closest group; 'related' also keeps the next one. Unset means no grouping filter.

  • RAG_MAX_DISTANCE

    Drop results whose vector distance exceeds this value. Lower is stricter. Unset means no distance filter.

  • RAG_MAX_FILES

    Keep chunks from at most this many best-scoring files. Unset means no per-file filter.

  • RAG_INSTRUCTIONS_APPEND

    Extra paragraph appended to the instructions the server hands the client at connect time, for corpus-specific guidance.

  • ALLOW_PRIVATE_URLS

    Let ingest_url fetch hosts resolving to loopback, link-local, private, reserved or unspecified addresses. Off by default.
