Types Reference

All types defined by the library, grouped by category. Types are shown using Rust as the canonical representation.

Unified extraction result envelope.

Field Type Default Description
results Vec<ExtractedDocument> vec!\[\] Extracted documents in discovery order.
errors Vec<ExtractionErrorItem> vec!\[\] Non-fatal per-input errors.
summary ExtractionSummary Aggregate counts for the operation.
crawl_final_urls Vec<String> vec!\[\] Final URLs reached after redirects during URL ingestion.
crawl_redirect_count usize Total redirects followed while fetching or crawling URLs.
crawl_unique_normalized_urls Vec<String> vec!\[\] Unique normalized URLs discovered by crawls.

Result of parsing a structured data file (JSON, JSONL, YAML, or TOML).

Field Type Default Description
content String The extracted text content, formatted for readability.
format String The source format identifier (e.g. "json", "yaml", "toml").
metadata HashMap<String, String> Key-value metadata extracted from recognized text fields.
text_fields Vec<String> JSON paths of fields that were classified as text-bearing.
value Option<serde_json::Value> None The parsed document as a canonical serde_json::Value tree, when the source format could be represented as one. None only for TOML inputs whose toml::Value fails to round-trip through serde_json::Value (xberg-io/xberg#155): the extractor falls back to a raw code block in that case.
flattened Vec<String> Flattened path: value renderings for every leaf field, in traversal order. Previously computed and discarded (xberg-io/xberg#166); now surfaced so callers get a full-text view even when the structured renderer only emits headings/lists for a subset of fields.

XML extraction result.

Contains extracted text content from XML files along with structural statistics about the XML document.

Field Type Default Description
content String Extracted text content (XML structure filtered out)
element_count usize Total number of XML elements processed
unique_elements Vec<String> List of unique element names found (sorted)

Plain text and Markdown extraction result.

Contains the extracted text along with statistics and, for Markdown files, structural elements like headers and links.

Field Type Default Description
content String Extracted text content
line_count usize Number of lines
word_count usize Number of words
character_count usize Number of characters
headers Vec<String> None Markdown headers (text only, Markdown files only)

revisions Vec<DocumentRevision> /* serde(default) */ Slide comments as revisions. Each <p:cm> element in ppt/comments/comment{N}.xml becomes a DocumentRevision { kind: Comment } with author (resolved from ppt/commentAuthors.xml), ISO-8601 timestamp, and RevisionAnchor::Slide { index }. None when no comment XML parts exist.

Hardware acceleration configuration for ONNX Runtime models.

Controls which execution provider (CPU, CoreML, CUDA, TensorRT) is used for inference in layout detection and embedding generation.

Field Type Default Description
provider ExecutionProviderType ExecutionProviderType::Auto Execution provider to use for ONNX inference.
device_id u32 GPU device ID (for CUDA/TensorRT). Ignored for CPU/CoreML/Auto.

Configuration for the VLM captioning post-processor.

Field Type Default Description
llm LlmConfig LLM configuration used for the VLM call.
prompt Option<String> None Optional custom caption prompt. None uses the default RegionKind::Caption prompt that ships with crate::llm::region_extractor.
min_image_area u32 serde(default = "default_min_image_area") Skip images whose width * height is below this threshold (in pixels). Default 1_000 filters out icons and decorations.

Configuration for the chunk-classification post-processor.

Chunk classification is always multi-label: a chunk may match zero, one, or many of the configured definitions. This is the chunk-level equivalent of PageClassificationConfig, but scoped to individual chunks (ExtractedDocument.chunks) rather than whole pages, and built for large taxonomies where each label needs its own description rather than a bare name.

Field Type Default Description
prompt_template Option<String> None Minijinja prompt template. Receives {{ definitions }} (rendered label + description list) and {{ chunks }} (a numbered list of chunk texts in the current batch) variables. None lets the backend pick a sensible default.
definitions Vec<ChunkClassificationDefinition> The set of label definitions the classifier may emit. Must contain at least one entry.
llm LlmConfig LLM configuration used for classification.
batch_size usize serde(default = "default_batch_size") Number of chunks batched into a single LLM request. Larger batches amortize the fixed prompt cost (definitions block) across more chunks, at the risk of exceeding the model’s context window for very large taxonomies or chunk texts. Defaults to DEFAULT_BATCH_SIZE.
max_concurrency usize serde(default = "default_max_concurrency") Maximum number of in-flight batch requests. Bounds concurrency against the configured LLM provider. Defaults to DEFAULT_MAX_CONCURRENCY.

Configuration for the page-classification post-processor.

Field Type Default Description
prompt_template Option<String> None Minijinja prompt template. Receives {{ labels }} (joined list), {{ page_text }} and {{ multi_label }} variables. None lets the backend pick a sensible default.
labels Vec<String> The set of labels the classifier may emit. Must contain at least one entry.
multi_label bool /* serde(default) */ Allow multiple labels per page. Single-label mode returns at most one label.
llm LlmConfig LLM configuration used for classification.

Cross-extractor content filtering configuration.

Controls whether “furniture” content (headers, footers, page numbers, watermarks, repeating text) is included in or stripped from extraction results. Applies across all extractors (PDF, DOCX, RTF, ODT, HTML, etc.) with format-specific implementation.

When None on ExtractionConfig, each extractor uses its current default behavior unchanged.

Field Type Default Description
include_headers bool false Include running headers in extraction output. - PDF: Disables top-margin furniture stripping and prevents the layout model from treating PageHeader-classified regions as furniture. - DOCX: Includes document headers in text output. - RTF/ODT: Headers already included; this is a no-op when true. - HTML/EPUB: Keeps <header> element content. Default: false (headers are stripped or excluded).
include_footers bool false Include running footers in extraction output. - PDF: Disables bottom-margin furniture stripping and prevents the layout model from treating PageFooter-classified regions as furniture. - DOCX: Includes document footers in text output. - RTF/ODT: Footers already included; this is a no-op when true. - HTML/EPUB: Keeps <footer> element content. Default: false (footers are stripped or excluded).
include_footnotes bool false Include footnote bodies in extraction output. - PDF: Prevents the layout model from treating Footnote-classified regions as furniture, so footnote bodies survive alongside the main text instead of being silently dropped. - Other formats: No effect currently. Default: false (footnotes are stripped), matching the existing include_headers / include_footers defaults.
strip_repeating_text bool true Enable the heuristic cross-page repeating text detector. When true (default), text that repeats verbatim across a supermajority of pages is classified as furniture and stripped. Disable this if brand names or repeated headings are being incorrectly removed by the heuristic. Note: when a layout-detection model is active, the model may independently classify page-header / page-footer / footnote regions as furniture on a per-page basis. To preserve those regions, set include_headers = true, include_footers = true, include_footnotes = true, or any combination, in addition to disabling this flag. Primarily affects PDF extraction. Default: true.
include_watermarks bool false Include watermark text in extraction output. - PDF: Keeps watermark artifacts and arXiv identifiers. - Other formats: No effect currently. Default: false (watermarks are stripped).

Configuration for CSV/TSV extraction.

When unset (ExtractionConfig.csv == None), the extractor keeps its existing default behavior: the delimiter is auto-detected by sampling the file (comma, tab, pipe, or semicolon), and no line is treated as a comment.

Field Type Default Description
delimiter Option<String> Default::default() Field delimiter, as a single-character string (e.g. ",", ";", "\t", "|"). When None (default), the delimiter is auto-detected from a sample of the file. Must be exactly one ASCII byte when set — ExtractionConfig::validate rejects an empty string or a multi-byte value with a helpful error. The TSV MIME type (text/tab-separated-values) always forces \t regardless of this setting.
comment_prefixes Vec<String> vec!\[\] Line prefixes that mark a comment line to skip entirely during row parsing (e.g. \["#"\]). A line is treated as a comment when its trimmed start matches any of these prefixes exactly. Default: empty, meaning no line is treated as a comment (matches the pre-existing extractor behavior).

Configuration for email extraction.

Field Type Default Description
msg_fallback_codepage Option<u32> Default::default() Windows codepage number to use when an MSG file contains no codepage property. Defaults to None, which falls back to windows-1252. If an unrecognized or invalid codepage number is supplied (including 0), the behavior silently falls back to windows-1252 — the same as when the MSG file itself contains an unrecognized codepage. No error or warning is emitted. Users should verify output when supplying unusual values. Common values: - 1250: Central European (Polish, Czech, Hungarian, etc.) - 1251: Cyrillic (Russian, Ukrainian, Bulgarian, etc.) - 1252: Western European (default) - 1253: Greek - 1254: Turkish - 1255: Hebrew - 1256: Arabic - 932: Japanese (Shift-JIS) - 936: Simplified Chinese (GBK)

Main extraction configuration.

This struct contains all configuration options for the extraction process. It can be loaded from TOML, YAML, or JSON files, or created programmatically.

Field Type Default Description
use_cache bool true Enable caching of extraction results
enable_quality_processing bool true Enable quality post-processing
ocr Option<OcrConfig> None OCR configuration. None does not run OCR for documents that already have usable text. Under OcrStrategy::Auto, a PDF with no text layer at all (a scan) is still routed to OCR with default settings so it is not returned empty (#1338). Set Self::disable_ocr to hard-disable OCR regardless of the detected content.
force_ocr bool false Force OCR even for searchable PDFs
ocr_strategy OcrStrategy OcrStrategy::Auto Which pages get OCR’d when neither force_ocr nor force_ocr_pages applies. Defaults to OcrStrategy::Auto, which OCRs only pages whose native text fails a quality check. Only applies to PDF documents. Cannot be OcrStrategy::ScannedPages while disable_ocr is true.
force_ocr_pages Vec<u32> None Force OCR on specific pages only (1-indexed page numbers, must be >= 1). When set, only the listed pages are OCR’d regardless of text layer quality. Unlisted pages use native text extraction. Ignored when force_ocr is true. Only applies to PDF documents. Duplicates are automatically deduplicated. An ocr config is recommended for backend/language selection; defaults are used if absent.
disable_ocr bool false Disable OCR entirely, even for images. When true, OCR is skipped for all document types. Images return metadata only (dimensions, format, EXIF) without text extraction. PDFs use only native text extraction without OCR fallback. Cannot be true simultaneously with force_ocr.
chunking Option<ChunkingConfig> None Text chunking configuration (None = chunking disabled)
content_filter Option<ContentFilterConfig> None Content filtering configuration (None = use extractor defaults). Controls whether document “furniture” (headers, footers, watermarks, repeating text) is included in or stripped from extraction results. See ContentFilterConfig for per-field documentation.
images Option<ImageExtractionConfig> None Image extraction configuration (None = no image extraction)
pdf_options Option<PdfConfig> None PDF-specific options (None = use defaults)
token_reduction Option<TokenReductionOptions> None Token reduction configuration (None = no token reduction)
language_detection Option<LanguageDetectionConfig> None Language detection configuration (None = no language detection)
pages Option<PageConfig> None Page extraction configuration (None = no page tracking)
keywords Option<KeywordConfig> None Keyword extraction configuration (None = no keyword extraction)
postprocessor Option<PostProcessorConfig> None Post-processor configuration (None = use defaults)
html_options Option<ConversionOptions> None HTML to Markdown conversion options (None = use defaults) Configure how HTML documents are converted to Markdown, including heading styles, list formatting, code block styles, and preprocessing options.
html_output Option<HtmlOutputConfig> None Styled HTML output configuration. When set alongside output_format = OutputFormat::Html, the extraction pipeline uses StyledHtmlRenderer which emits stable kb-* CSS class hooks on every structural element and optionally embeds theme CSS or user-supplied CSS in a <style> block. When None, the existing plain comrak-based HTML renderer is used.
extraction_timeout_secs Option<u64> Default::default() Default per-file timeout in seconds for batch extraction. When set, each file in a batch will be canceled after this duration unless overridden by FileExtractionConfig::timeout_secs. Defaults to Some(600) (10 minutes) to prevent pathological files (e.g. deeply nested archives, documents with millions of cells) from running indefinitely and exhausting caller resources, while still giving slow paths (VLM-based OCR, large scanned documents) enough headroom to finish. Set to None to disable the timeout for trusted input or long-running workloads.
max_concurrent_extractions Option<usize> None Maximum concurrent document extractions in batch operations. This is a ceiling within the configured total thread budget, not an independent pool size. When unset, the scheduler derives document and per-document concurrency from ConcurrencyConfig::max_threads.
result_format ResultFormat ResultFormat::Unified Result structure format Controls whether results are returned in unified format (default) with all content in the content field, or element-based format with semantic elements (for Unstructured-compatible output).
security_limits Option<SecurityLimits> None Security limits for archive extraction. Controls maximum archive size, compression ratio, file count, and other security thresholds to prevent decompression bomb attacks. Also caps nesting depth, iteration count, entity / token length, total content size, and table cell count for every extraction path that ingests user-controlled bytes. When None, default limits are used.
max_embedded_file_bytes Option<u64> Default::default() Maximum uncompressed size in bytes for a single embedded file before recursive extraction is attempted (default: 50 MiB). Applies to embedded objects inside OOXML containers (DOCX, PPTX) and to email attachments processed via recursive extraction. Files that exceed this limit are skipped with a ProcessingWarning rather than passed to the extraction pipeline, preventing a single oversized embedded object from consuming unbounded memory or time. Set to None to disable the per-embedded-file cap (falls back to security_limits.max_archive_size as the only guard).
output_format OutputFormat OutputFormat::Plain Content text format (default: Plain). Controls the format of the extracted content: - Plain: Raw extracted text (default) - Markdown: Markdown formatted output - Djot: Djot markup format (requires djot feature) - Html: HTML formatted output When set to a structured format, extraction results will include formatted output. The formatted_content field may be populated when format conversion is applied.
escape_markdown bool true Escape Markdown special characters in rendered prose (default: true). When output_format is Markdown or Djot, the renderer backslash-escapes CommonMark-significant leading characters (e.g. -, #) so that literal text such as #06-18 or - clause round-trips safely through a CommonMark parser instead of being reinterpreted as a heading or list marker. Table cell text is never escaped, so escaped prose can look inconsistent with table cells containing the same characters. Set this to false to disable prose escaping and make content, pages\[\].content, and chunks\[\].content read identically to table cell text — useful for LLM prompts or search indexing where CommonMark round-tripping does not matter. Defaults to true to preserve existing behavior.
table_anchors bool false Emit an opt-in anchor marker before each table’s rendered Markdown block (default: false). When output_format is Markdown (or Djot) and this is true, the renderer inserts a \[TABLE:{table_id}\] marker immediately before each table’s Markdown in content, pages\[\].content, and chunks\[\].content, where table_id matches the corresponding entry’s table_id. This lets a consumer reconcile a rendered Markdown table block with its structured tables\[\] entry. Defaults to false so existing output is byte-identical unless explicitly enabled.
jupyter_cell_rendering JupyterCellRendering JupyterCellRendering::Both Controls how Jupyter notebook (.ipynb) code cells are rendered. - Both (default): code source plus the notebook’s saved outputs - Source: only the code source (fenced code blocks) - Outputs: only the saved outputs Cells are never executed; Outputs/Both surface only outputs already stored in the notebook.
layout Option<LayoutDetectionConfig> None Layout detection configuration (None = layout detection disabled). When set, PDF pages and images are analyzed for document structure (headings, code, formulas, tables, figures, etc.) using RT-DETR models via ONNX Runtime. For PDFs, layout hints override paragraph classification in the markdown pipeline. For images, per-region OCR is performed with markdown formatting based on detected layout classes. Requires the layout-detection feature to run inference; the field is present whenever the layout-types feature is active (which includes layout-detection as well as the no-ORT target groups).
transcription Option<TranscriptionConfig> None Transcription (speech-to-text) configuration for audio/video files. When set and enabled, files with audio/video MIME types (mp3, mp4, m4a, wav, webm, etc.) are routed to the Whisper-based transcription pipeline. The actual heavy dependencies are only active under the transcription feature; the field is visible under transcription-types (including on WASM and Android targets that use the no-ORT preset). Default: None (transcription disabled). This is an additive, non-breaking change.
use_layout_for_markdown bool false Run layout detection on the non-OCR PDF markdown path. When true and layout is Some(_), layout regions inform reading order, region grouping, and table detection while native font/tag semantics remain authoritative for headings, lists, code, and formulas. OCR layout classification is unchanged. This improves structural output at the cost of inference latency (~150-300ms/page CPU, ~20-50ms/page GPU). Default: false. Requires the layout-detection feature.
include_document_structure bool false Enable structured document tree output. When true, populates the document field on ExtractedDocument with a hierarchical DocumentStructure containing heading-driven section nesting, table grids, content layer classification, and inline annotations. Independent of result_format — can be combined with Unified or ElementBased.
acceleration Option<AccelerationConfig> None Hardware acceleration configuration for ONNX Runtime models. Controls execution provider selection for layout detection and embedding models. When None, uses platform defaults (CoreML on macOS, CUDA on Linux, CPU on Windows).
cache_namespace Option<String> None Cache namespace for tenant isolation. When set, cache entries are stored under {cache_dir}/{namespace}/. Must be alphanumeric, hyphens, or underscores only (max 64 chars). Different namespaces have isolated cache spaces on the same filesystem.
cache_ttl_secs Option<u64> None Per-request cache TTL in seconds. Overrides the global max_age_days for this specific extraction. When 0, caching is completely skipped (no read or write). When None, the global TTL applies.
email Option<EmailConfig> None Email extraction configuration (None = use defaults). Currently supports configuring the fallback codepage for MSG files that do not specify one. See EmailConfig for details.
csv Option<CsvConfig> None CSV/TSV extraction configuration (None = use defaults). Lets callers set an explicit delimiter and declare comment-line prefixes to skip, instead of relying solely on delimiter auto-detection. See CsvConfig for details.
url UrlExtractionConfig URL ingestion and crawl configuration.
max_archive_depth usize Maximum recursion depth for archive extraction (default: 3). Set to 0 to disable recursive extraction (legacy behavior).
tree_sitter Option<TreeSitterConfig> None Tree-sitter language pack configuration (None = tree-sitter disabled). When set, enables code file extraction using tree-sitter parsers. Controls grammar download behavior and code analysis options.
structured_extraction Option<StructuredExtractionConfig> None Structured extraction via LLM (None = disabled). When set, the extracted document content is sent to an LLM with the provided JSON schema. The structured response is stored in ExtractedDocument::structured_output.
ner Option<NerConfig> None Named-entity recognition configuration. When set, the NER post-processor runs at the Middle stage and populates ExtractedDocument::entities.
redaction Option<RedactionConfig> None Redaction / anonymisation configuration. When set, the redaction post-processor runs at the Late stage and rewrites every textual field in ExtractedDocument, emitting an audit trail in ExtractedDocument::redaction_report.
summarization Option<SummarizationConfig> None Summarisation configuration. When set, the summarisation post-processor runs at the Middle stage and populates ExtractedDocument::summary.
translation Option<TranslationConfig> None Translation configuration. When set, the translation post-processor runs at the Middle stage and populates ExtractedDocument::translation.
page_classification Option<PageClassificationConfig> None Per-page classification configuration. When set, the classification post-processor runs at the Middle stage and populates ExtractedDocument::page_classifications.
chunk_classification Option<ChunkClassificationConfig> None Per-chunk multi-label classification configuration. When set, the chunk-classification post-processor runs at the Middle stage (after chunking) and populates ChunkMetadata::classifications on every chunk.
captioning Option<CaptioningConfig> None VLM captioning configuration for extracted images. When set, the captioning post-processor runs at the Middle stage and writes a caption into each ExtractedImage::caption.
qr_codes Option<bool> None Enable QR-code detection in extracted images. When true, the QR post-processor runs at the Middle stage and populates ExtractedImage::qr_codes.

Per-file extraction configuration overrides for batch processing.

All fields are Option<T>None means “use the batch-level default.” This type is used by config and extract_batch to allow heterogeneous extraction settings within a single batch.

The following ExtractionConfig fields are batch-level only and cannot be overridden per file:

results usize Number of extraction results produced.
errors usize Number of per-input errors.
remote_urls usize Number of URI inputs that resolved to remote HTTP(S) URLs.
pages_crawled usize Number of HTML pages crawled or scraped.
documents_downloaded usize Number of downloaded non-HTML documents extracted from URLs.

URL ingestion and crawl configuration.

Field Type Default Description

Image extraction configuration.

Field Type Default Description
extract_images bool true Extract images from documents
target_dpi i32 300 Target DPI for image normalization
max_image_dimension i32 4096 Maximum dimension for images (width or height)
inject_placeholders bool true Whether to inject image reference placeholders into markdown output. When true (default), image references like !\[Image 1\](embedded:p1_i0) are appended to the markdown. Set to false to extract images as data without polluting the markdown output.
auto_adjust_dpi bool true Automatically adjust DPI based on image content
min_dpi i32 72 Minimum DPI threshold
max_dpi i32 600 Maximum DPI threshold
max_images_per_page Option<u32> None Maximum number of image objects to extract per PDF page. Some PDFs (e.g. technical diagrams stored as thousands of raster fragments) can trigger extremely long or indefinite extraction times when every image object on a dense page is decoded individually via the PDF extractor. Setting this limit causes xberg to stop collecting individual images once the count per page reaches the cap and emit a warning instead. None (default) means no limit — all images are extracted.
classify bool false When true, extracted images are classified by kind and grouped into clusters where they appear to belong to one figure. Defaults to false — opt in explicitly to avoid unexpected ML overhead.
include_page_rasters bool false When true, full-page renders produced during OCR preprocessing are captured and returned as ImageKind::PageRaster entries in ExtractedDocument.images. PDF + OCR only. No rasters are captured for non-PDF inputs or when the document-level OCR bypass is active (whole-document backend). When OCR is enabled and this flag is set but the active backend skips per-page rendering, a ProcessingWarning is emitted in ExtractedDocument.processing_warnings. Defaults to false. Enable when downstream consumers need page thumbnails (e.g. citation previews, visual grounding).
run_ocr_on_images bool true Run OCR on extracted images and include the recognized text in the document content. When true (default) and ExtractionConfig.ocr is configured, extracted images are processed with the configured OCR backend. Set to false to extract images without OCR processing, even when OCR is enabled.
ocr_text_only bool false When true, image OCR results are rendered as plain text without the !\[...\](...) markdown placeholder. Only takes effect when run_ocr_on_images is also true.
append_ocr_text bool false When true and ocr_text_only is false, append the OCR text after the image placeholder in the rendered output.
output_format ImageOutputFormat ImageOutputFormat::Native Target format for re-encoding extracted images. When set to anything other than Native, each extracted image is re-encoded to the requested format before being returned. This lets callers receive uniform output without duplicating encode logic downstream. Defaults to Native — no re-encode pass is performed and ExtractedImage.format reflects the source extractor’s output.
svg SvgOptions SVG-specific knobs for the image-encode pipeline. Controls sanitization and rasterization DPI when the source or output format is SVG. Only available when the svg feature is active.
include_data_base64 bool false When true, populate ExtractedImage::data_base64 with a Base64-encoded copy of the raw image bytes. Useful for JSON-only clients that cannot efficiently parse the default integer-array serialization of data. Defaults to false; enabling it doubles the in-memory image representation for the duration of the response.

Token reduction configuration.

Field Type Default Description
mode String Reduction mode: “off”, “light”, “moderate”, “aggressive”, “maximum”
preserve_important_words bool true Preserve important words (capitalized, technical terms)

Language detection configuration.

Field Type Default Description
enabled bool true Enable language detection
min_confidence f64 0.8 Minimum confidence threshold (0.0-1.0)
detect_multiple bool false Detect multiple languages in the document

Configuration for styled HTML output.

When set on html_output alongside output_format = OutputFormat.Html, the pipeline builds a StyledHtmlRenderer instead of the plain comrak-based renderer.

Field Type Default Description
css Option<String> None Inline CSS string injected into the output after the theme stylesheet. Concatenated after css_file content when both are set.
css_file Option<PathBuf> None Path to a CSS file loaded once at renderer construction time. Concatenated before css when both are set.
theme HtmlTheme HtmlTheme::Unstyled Built-in colour/typography theme. Default: HtmlTheme::Unstyled.
class_prefix String CSS class prefix applied to every emitted class name. Default: "kb-". Change this if your host application already uses classes that start with kb-.
embed_css bool true When true (default), write the resolved CSS into a <style> block immediately after the opening <div class="{prefix}doc">. Set to false to emit only the structural markup and wire up your own stylesheet targeting the kb-* class names.

Configuration for the late-interaction (ColBERT) pipeline.

Controls which model to use, batching, and download/cache behavior for the local ONNX ColBERT model.

Since v5.0.

Field Type Default Description
model LateInteractionModelType LateInteractionModelType::Preset The late-interaction model to use (defaults to the “gte-moderncolbert” preset).
batch_size usize Batch size for local ONNX inference. ColBERT emits a \[seq, dim\] multi-vector embedding per document, so memory scales with batch size — keep this modest.
max_length usize Maximum token sequence length for the tokenizer (documents).
query_max_length usize Fixed padded length for query augmentation. ColBERT queries are padded (with the mask token, kept attention-live) to exactly this many tokens rather than truncated/left as-is — this is the “query augmentation” trick from the ColBERT paper.
show_download_progress bool false Show model download progress (local ONNX path only). When enabled, transfer progress for the model, tokenizer and config files is reported at info level on the xberg::model_download target while they download (#279). A warm Hugging Face cache transfers nothing and so reports nothing. Ignored by LateInteractionModelType::Plugin, which downloads no model.
cache_dir Option<PathBuf> None Optional alternate Hugging Face cache root for model files. When unset, hf-hub follows the standard Hugging Face environment and platform cache conventions.
acceleration Option<AccelerationConfig> None Hardware acceleration for the late-interaction ONNX model.
max_embed_duration_secs Option<u64> Default::default() Maximum wall-clock duration (in seconds) for a single embed call when using LateInteractionModelType::Plugin. None disables the timeout.

Layout detection configuration.

Controls layout detection behavior in the extraction pipeline. When set on ExtractionConfig, layout detection is enabled for PDF extraction.

Field Type Default Description
strategy LayoutStrategy LayoutStrategy::Always Which pages the layout model runs on. Defaults to LayoutStrategy::Always, the historical behavior: every page is rendered and inferred. LayoutStrategy::Auto pre-screens pages with cheap signals and skips the model where it cannot help.
confidence_threshold Option<f32> None Confidence threshold override (None = use model default).
apply_heuristics bool true Whether to apply postprocessing heuristics (default: true).
table_model TableModel TableModel::Tatr Table structure recognition model. Controls which model is used for table cell detection within layout-detected table regions. Defaults to TableModel::Tatr.
table_overlap_preference TableOverlapPreference TableOverlapPreference::Content How to resolve overlapping native vs layout tables. When a native oxide table and a layout (TATR/SLANeXT) table overlap on the same region, this controls which one is kept. Defaults to TableOverlapPreference::Content (historical behavior: keep the table with more content). Set to TableOverlapPreference::Native to favor source reading order (higher text F1) over the model’s cell reflow.
acceleration Option<AccelerationConfig> None Hardware acceleration for ONNX models (layout detection + table structure). When set, controls which execution provider (CPU, CUDA, CoreML, TensorRT) is used for inference. Defaults to None (auto-select per platform).
enable_chart_understanding bool false Route regions classified as charts to the chart-understanding OCR task. When true, layout regions detected as charts are sent to the VLM chart task (data-series/axis recovery) instead of being treated as generic image regions. Defaults to false — chart understanding is opt-in and has no effect on standard text/table extraction scores.

Configuration for an LLM provider/model via liter-llm.

Each feature (VLM OCR, VLM embeddings, structured extraction) carries its own LlmConfig, allowing different providers per feature.

Debug is implemented by hand so api_key, header values, and the AWS credentials in BedrockConfig are never printed.

Field Type Default Description
model String Provider/model string using liter-llm routing format. Examples: "openai/gpt-4o", "anthropic/claude-sonnet-4-20250514", "groq/llama-3.1-70b-versatile".
api_key Option<String> Default::default() API key for the provider. When None, liter-llm falls back to the provider’s standard environment variable (e.g., OPENAI_API_KEY).
base_url Option<String> Default::default() Custom base URL override for the provider endpoint.
timeout_secs Option<u64> Default::default() Request timeout in seconds. When None, liter-llm’s built-in 60s default applies, except the VLM OCR path which uses a 300s default (a single page image transcription routinely exceeds 60s). Set explicitly to override.
max_retries Option<u32> Default::default() Maximum retry attempts (default: 3).
temperature Option<f64> Default::default() Sampling temperature for generation tasks.
max_tokens Option<u64> Default::default() Maximum tokens to generate.
top_p Option<f64> Default::default() Nucleus sampling parameter for generation tasks, applied to individual requests built from this config. Restricts sampling to the smallest set of tokens whose cumulative probability mass is at least this value; lower is more focused. Validated to \[0.0, 1.0\] by LlmConfig::validate. Mirrors liter-llm’s ChatCompletionRequest::top_p. A request-time parameter like temperature/max_tokens above, not a client-level setting.
stop Vec<String> vec!\[\] Stop sequence(s) that halt token generation, applied to individual requests built from this config. Mirrors liter-llm’s ChatCompletionRequest::stop (types::common::StopSequence), which liter-llm represents as either a single string or a list of strings via an untagged enum. Always expressed here as a list — even one stop sequence is \["..."\] — so the field has a single, FFI-friendly shape across every language binding instead of a single-or-list union type. Converted to liter-llm’s StopSequence::Multiple at each request-building call site; see to_stop_sequence.
seed Option<i64> Default::default() Random seed for reproducible outputs, applied to individual requests built from this config. Provider support varies — some silently ignore it. Mirrors liter-llm’s ChatCompletionRequest::seed.
presence_penalty Option<f64> Default::default() Presence penalty for generation tasks, applied to individual requests built from this config. Positive values discourage the model from repeating topics already present in the conversation. Validated to \[-2.0, 2.0\] by LlmConfig::validate. Mirrors liter-llm’s ChatCompletionRequest::presence_penalty.
frequency_penalty Option<f64> Default::default() Frequency penalty for generation tasks, applied to individual requests built from this config. Positive values discourage the model from repeating the same tokens verbatim. Validated to \[-2.0, 2.0\] by LlmConfig::validate. Mirrors liter-llm’s ChatCompletionRequest::frequency_penalty.
reasoning_effort Option<String> Default::default() Reasoning effort level for extended-thinking models, applied to individual requests built from this config. Mirrors liter-llm’s ChatCompletionRequest::reasoning_effort (types::chat::ReasoningEffort). A request-time parameter like temperature/ max_tokens above, not a client-level setting — into_client_builder does not map it. Accepted as a plain string — one of "low", "medium", "high", "minimal", "max" (case-insensitive; liter-llm’s own #\[serde(rename_all = "lowercase")\] spelling) — rather than importing liter-llm’s enum, because this module compiles even when the liter-llm feature is disabled. See parse_reasoning_effort for the conversion into liter_llm::ReasoningEffort.
extra_body Option<serde_json::Value> Default::default() Provider-specific extra parameters merged into the request body (guardrails, safety settings, grounding config, etc.), applied to individual requests built from this config. Mirrors liter-llm’s ChatCompletionRequest::extra_body. A request-time parameter like temperature/max_tokens above, not a client-level setting.
load_env Option<bool> Default::default() Whether liter-llm should load provider credentials from environment variables. Mirrors liter-llm’s ClientConfigBuilder::load_env. When None, liter-llm’s own default behavior applies.
headers HashMap<String, String> HashMap::new() Extra HTTP headers sent with every request to the provider. Mirrors liter-llm’s ClientConfigBuilder::header, for gateways or providers that require custom auth/routing headers.
providers Vec<LlmProviderConfig> vec!\[\] Custom provider configurations, in addition to liter-llm’s built-in providers. Mirrors liter-llm’s LlmConfig::providers, for OpenAI-compatible gateways and self-hosted model servers that are not in the built-in provider catalog.
cache Option<LlmCacheConfig> Default::default() Response cache configuration. Mirrors liter-llm’s LlmConfig::cache. Only takes effect when liter-llm’s tower feature is compiled in; otherwise the value is accepted but unused. Boxed for the same reason as bedrock (a4579589ac): LlmConfig is the payload of EmbeddingModelType::Llm and RerankerModelType::Llm, whose other variants are tens of bytes. Inlining this and the two sub-configs below pushed that variant to 480 bytes and tripped clippy::large_enum_variant on the --features full leg. ~keep
budget Option<LlmBudgetConfig> Default::default() Budget enforcement configuration. Mirrors liter-llm’s LlmConfig::budget. Only takes effect when liter-llm’s tower feature is compiled in; otherwise the value is accepted but unused.
rate_limit Option<LlmRateLimitConfig> Default::default() Per-model rate limiting configuration. Mirrors liter-llm’s LlmConfig::rate_limit. Only takes effect when liter-llm’s tower feature is compiled in; otherwise the value is accepted but unused.
cost_tracking Option<bool> Default::default() Enable per-request cost tracking. Mirrors liter-llm’s LlmConfig::cost_tracking. Only takes effect when liter-llm’s tower feature is compiled in; otherwise the value is accepted but unused.
tracing Option<bool> Default::default() Enable OpenTelemetry-compatible tracing spans. Mirrors liter-llm’s LlmConfig::tracing. Only takes effect when liter-llm’s tower feature is compiled in; otherwise the value is accepted but unused.
cooldown_secs Option<u64> Default::default() Cooldown duration after transient errors, in seconds. Mirrors liter-llm’s LlmConfig::cooldown_secs. Only takes effect when liter-llm’s tower feature is compiled in; otherwise the value is accepted but unused.
health_check_secs Option<u64> Default::default() Background health check interval, in seconds. Mirrors liter-llm’s LlmConfig::health_check_secs. Only takes effect when liter-llm’s tower feature is compiled in; otherwise the value is accepted but unused.
bedrock Option<BedrockConfig> Default::default() AWS Bedrock settings (region, cross-region routing, explicit credentials). Only consulted for bedrock/-prefixed models. When None — or when an individual field inside it is None — liter-llm falls back to the standard AWS environment variables and the default credential chain.
credential_provider Option<CredentialProviderConfig> Default::default() Managed OAuth2/STS credential provider for auth modes liter-llm cannot express via a static api_key — Azure AD, Vertex AI OAuth2, Vertex AI Application Default Credentials, and AWS STS Web Identity (EKS IRSA) for Bedrock. Mirrors liter-llm’s client::ClientConfigBuilder::credential_provider, which takes an Arc<dyn liter_llm::auth::CredentialProvider> trait object — that cannot appear in a serde DTO. Every CredentialProviderConfig variant is plain data instead, so it round-trips through TOML/JSON/YAML and every language binding like the rest of LlmConfig. Inert on wasm32: crate::llm (the module that reads this field — build_credential_provider and friends) is compiled out entirely on that target, via the crate-root #\[cfg(all(feature = "liter-llm", not(target_arch = "wasm32")))\] pub mod llm; gate in lib.rs. Every variant needs liter-llm’s native-http-backed auth modules, and wasm32 builds request only wasm-http (see the liter-llm dependency comment in Cargo.toml), so there is no code path left on that target to construct a provider from this field, or to reject it. This type (core::config::llm) has no liter-llm dependency itself and compiles on every target, so setting this field on a wasm32 build is accepted by serde and silently ignored — a plain no-op, not a Validation. Reject a wasm32 build that sets this field yourself if that silence is a problem for your use case; xberg does not do it for you. GitHub Copilot’s device-flow provider has no variant here: it takes no configuration at all (liter_llm::auth::github_copilot::GithubCopilotCredentialProvider::new accepts only an HTTP client) and drives an interactive terminal prompt, so it cannot be expressed as data. A Rust embedder who needs it — or any other fully custom CredentialProvider — can call xberg::llm::client::create_client_with_credential_provider directly with a liter-llm dependency of their own.

A custom provider configuration entry, in addition to liter-llm’s built-in providers.

Mirrors liter-llm’s LlmProviderConfig.

Field Type Default Description
name String Provider name, used to key model prefix matching.
base_url String Base URL for the provider’s OpenAI-compatible API.
auth_header Option<String> Default::default() Header name used to carry the API key (defaults to Authorization when unset).
model_prefixes Vec<String> vec!\[\] Model name prefixes routed to this provider (e.g. \["my-provider/"\]).

Response cache configuration.

Mirrors liter-llm’s LlmCacheConfig. Only takes effect when liter-llm’s tower feature is compiled in; otherwise the value round-trips through configuration but is not consulted at request time.

Field Type Default Description
max_entries Option<usize> Default::default() Maximum number of cached entries.
ttl_seconds Option<u64> Default::default() Cache entry time-to-live, in seconds.
backend Option<String> Default::default() Cache backend name (e.g. "memory", or an opendal scheme).
backend_config HashMap<String, String> HashMap::new() Backend-specific configuration key/value pairs.

Budget enforcement configuration.

Mirrors liter-llm’s LlmBudgetConfig. Only takes effect when liter-llm’s tower feature is compiled in; otherwise the value round-trips through configuration but is not enforced at request time.

Field Type Default Description
global_limit Option<f64> Default::default() Global spend limit in USD.
model_limits HashMap<String, f64> HashMap::new() Per-model spend limits in USD, keyed by model name.
enforcement Option<String> Default::default() Enforcement mode: "hard" (reject over-budget requests) or "soft" (log only).

Per-model rate limiting configuration.

Mirrors liter-llm’s LlmRateLimitConfig. Only takes effect when liter-llm’s tower feature is compiled in; otherwise the value round-trips through configuration but is not enforced at request time.

Field Type Default Description
rpm Option<u32> Default::default() Requests per minute limit.
tpm Option<u64> Default::default() Tokens per minute limit.
window_seconds Option<u64> Default::default() Rate limit window, in seconds.

AWS Bedrock configuration for bedrock/-prefixed models.

Mirrors liter-llm’s BedrockConfig. Every field is optional: anything left unset falls back to the standard AWS environment variables (AWS_DEFAULT_REGION / AWS_REGION, AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID, AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY, AWS_SESSION_TOKEN, BEDROCK_CROSS_REGION) and the default AWS credential chain. Leave the credential fields unset unless you have an explicit reason to pin them.

Debug is implemented by hand so the three credential fields are never printed.

Field Type Default Description
region Option<String> Default::default() AWS region (e.g. "us-east-1").
cross_region_prefix Option<String> Default::default() Cross-region inference profile prefix (e.g. "us").
access_key_id Option<String> Default::default() Explicit AWS access key ID. Secret — never logged.
secret_access_key Option<String> Default::default() Explicit AWS secret access key. Secret — never logged.
session_token Option<String> Default::default() Explicit AWS session token for temporary credentials. Secret — never logged.

Configuration for LLM-based structured data extraction.

Sends extracted document content to a VLM with a JSON schema, returning structured data that conforms to the schema.

Field Type Default Description
schema serde_json::Value JSON Schema defining the desired output structure.
schema_name String serde(default = "default_schema_name") Schema name passed to the LLM’s structured output mode.
schema_description Option<String> /* serde(default) */ Optional schema description for the LLM.
strict bool /* serde(default) */ Enable strict mode — output must exactly match the schema.
prompt Option<String> /* serde(default) */ Custom Jinja2 extraction prompt template. When None, a default template is used. Available template variables: - {{ content }} — The extracted document text. - {{ schema }} — The JSON schema as a formatted string. - {{ schema_name }} — The schema name. - {{ schema_description }} — The schema description (may be empty).
llm LlmConfig LLM configuration for the extraction.

Configuration for the NER post-processor.

Field Type Default Description
backend NerBackendKind NerBackendKind::Onnx Backend that runs the entity detection.
categories Vec<EntityCategory> vec!\[\] Entity categories to detect. Defaults to a sensible PERSON/ORG/LOCATION/EMAIL set when empty.
model Option<String> Default::default() Override the default model — only used by NerBackendKind::Onnx. None lets the backend pick its pinned default xberg GLiNER model alias.
llm Option<LlmConfig> Default::default() Optional LLM configuration — only used by NerBackendKind::Llm. Token usage for LLM backends is recorded in ExtractedDocument::llm_usage.
custom_labels Vec<String> vec!\[\] Arbitrary user-supplied entity labels for zero-shot detection. xberg-gliner natively supports zero-shot inference over caller-supplied labels. The LLM backend also honours these labels by including them in the structured-output schema. Custom labels surface as EntityCategory::Custom in the resulting Entity stream. Use this when you need domain-specific entity types (e.g. "Treatment", "Product", "Vessel") without forking GLiNER’s taxonomy.

Quality thresholds for OCR fallback decisions and pipeline quality gating.

All fields default to the values that match the previous hardcoded behavior, so OcrQualityThresholds.default() preserves existing semantics exactly.

Field Type Default Description
min_total_non_whitespace usize 64 Minimum total non-whitespace characters to consider text substantive.
min_non_whitespace_per_page f64 32 Minimum non-whitespace characters per page on average.
min_meaningful_word_len usize 4 Minimum character count for a word to be “meaningful”.
min_meaningful_words usize 3 Minimum count of meaningful words before text is accepted.
min_alnum_ratio f64 0.3 Minimum alphanumeric ratio (non-whitespace chars that are alphanumeric).
min_garbage_chars usize 5 Minimum Unicode replacement characters (U+FFFD) to trigger OCR fallback.
max_fragmented_word_ratio f64 0.6 Maximum fraction of short (1-2 char) words before text is considered fragmented.
critical_fragmented_word_ratio f64 0.8 Critical fragmentation threshold — triggers OCR regardless of meaningful words. Normal English text has ~20-30% short words. 80%+ is definitive garbage.
min_avg_word_length f64 2 Minimum average word length. Below this with enough words indicates garbled extraction.
min_words_for_avg_length_check usize 50 Minimum word count before average word length check applies.
min_consecutive_repeat_ratio f64 0.08 Minimum consecutive word repetition ratio to detect column scrambling.
min_words_for_repeat_check usize 50 Minimum word count before consecutive repetition check is applied.
substantive_min_chars usize 100 Minimum character count for “substantive markdown” OCR skip gate.
non_text_min_chars usize 20 Minimum character count for “non-text content” OCR skip gate.
alnum_ws_ratio_threshold f64 0.4 Alphanumeric+whitespace ratio threshold for skip decisions.
pipeline_min_quality f64 0.5 Minimum quality score (0.0-1.0) for a pipeline stage result to be accepted. If the result from a backend scores below this, try the next backend.
min_undecodable_ratio f64 Minimum fraction of non-whitespace characters that are undecodable (Unicode Private Use Area, replacement characters, or non-whitespace control characters) before a page’s text layer is treated as unreadable and routed to OCR (issue #1254). Gated by min_total_non_whitespace so short snippets with a stray symbol or two do not trip this check.
enable_provenance_ocr_routing bool Whether to route a page to OCR when pdf_oxide reports that a high fraction of its text was fabricated rather than read from the file (MappingProvenance::Fallback, pdf_oxide 0.3.75+, issue #1254). This is a direct fact from the extractor’s ISO 32000-1 §9.10.2 mapping cascade, distinct from the character-heuristic proxy behind min_undecodable_ratio. Defaults to true.
min_provenance_fallback_ratio f64 Minimum fraction of a page’s non-whitespace characters with MappingProvenance::Fallback provenance before the page is treated as having a fabricated text layer and routed to OCR (issue #1254). Gated by min_total_non_whitespace so a short page with a stray fallback character cannot trip it. Only used when enable_provenance_ocr_routing is true.

Multi-backend OCR pipeline with quality-based fallback.

Backends are tried in priority order (highest first). After each backend produces output, quality is evaluated. If it meets quality_thresholds.pipeline_min_quality, the result is accepted. Otherwise the next backend is tried; if none clears the threshold, an internal selection policy derived from the OcrConfig decides which stage’s result is returned as the best effort (vlm_fallback pipelines prefer their last non-empty stage; explicit and classical pipelines stay score-based).

Field Type Default Description
stages Vec<OcrPipelineStage> Ordered list of backends to try. Sorted by priority (descending) at runtime.
quality_thresholds OcrQualityThresholds /* serde(default) */ Quality thresholds for deciding whether to accept a result or try the next backend.

OCR configuration.

Field Type Default Description
enabled bool true Whether OCR is enabled. Setting enabled: false is a shorthand for disable_ocr: true on the parent ExtractionConfig. Images return metadata only; PDFs use native text extraction without OCR fallback. Defaults to true. When false, all other OCR settings are ignored.
backend String OCR backend: tesseract, paddleocr, paddle-ocr, sceptre, or vlm. Sceptre uses ONNX Runtime on desktop/server and tract on supported mobile builds. Browser WebAssembly uses the separate byte-fed Sceptre worker API.
language Vec<String> vec!\[\] Language code(s) for OCR recognition. Defaults to \["eng"\]. For Tesseract, languages are joined with “+”. A list is the canonical form and the only form accepted by the binding object APIs (Python, Node, PHP, WASM, etc.): \["eng", "deu"\]. When deserializing from a config file, JSON body, or the REST/MCP API, a single string is also accepted, either as one code (“eng”) or “+”-joined (“eng+deu”).
tesseract_config Option<TesseractConfig> None Tesseract-specific configuration (optional)
output_format Option<OutputFormat> None Output format for OCR results (optional, for format conversion)
paddle_ocr_config Option<serde_json::Value> None PaddleOCR-specific configuration (optional, JSON passthrough). Deserialized into a PaddleOcrConfig, so any of its fields can be overridden here — most notably model_version ("pp-ocrv6" default / "pp-ocrv5") and model_tier. In TOML: toml \[ocr.paddle_ocr_config\] model_version = "pp-ocrv5" model_tier = "server" The XBERG_OCR_MODEL_VERSION / XBERG_OCR_MODEL_TIER environment variables set the same two keys for env-configured servers (issue #1279).
backend_options Option<serde_json::Value> None Arbitrary per-call options passed through to the backend unchanged. Custom OCR backends and built-in backends that support runtime tuning can read this value and deserialize the keys they care about. Keys unknown to the backend are silently ignored. This is the recommended extension point for per-call parameters that are not covered by the typed fields above (e.g. mode switching, preprocessing flags, inference batch size). Scope: when pipeline is None, this value is propagated to the primary stage of the auto-constructed pipeline. When pipeline is explicitly set, this field has no effect — the caller must set OcrPipelineStage.backend_options directly on the relevant stage(s) instead. Example: json { "mode": "fast", "enable_layout": true, "timeout_ms": 5000 }
element_config Option<OcrElementConfig> None OCR element extraction configuration
quality_thresholds Option<OcrQualityThresholds> None Quality thresholds for the native-text-to-OCR fallback decision. When None, uses compiled defaults (matching previous hardcoded behavior).
pipeline Option<OcrPipelineConfig> None Multi-backend OCR pipeline configuration. When set, enables weighted fallback across multiple OCR backends based on output quality. When None, uses the single backend field (same as today).
auto_rotate bool false Enable automatic page rotation based on orientation detection. When enabled, uses Tesseract’s DetectOrientationScript() to detect page orientation (0/90/180/270 degrees) before OCR. If the page is rotated with high confidence, the image is corrected before recognition. This is critical for handling rotated scanned documents.
vlm_fallback VlmFallbackPolicy VlmFallbackPolicy::Disabled Ergonomic VLM fallback policy. When set to anything other than VlmFallbackPolicy::Disabled and OcrConfig::pipeline is None, a multi-stage pipeline is synthesised automatically: - VlmFallbackPolicy::OnLowQuality\[classical_stage, vlm_stage\] with the quality_threshold mapped onto OcrQualityThresholds::pipeline_min_quality. - VlmFallbackPolicy::Always\[vlm_stage\] only. Requires OcrConfig::vlm_config to be Some when not Disabled. When OcrConfig::pipeline is explicitly set, this field is ignored.
vlm_config Option<LlmConfig> None VLM (Vision Language Model) OCR configuration. Required when backend is "vlm" or when vlm_fallback is not VlmFallbackPolicy::Disabled. Uses liter-llm to send page images to a vision model for text extraction.
vlm_prompt Option<String> None Custom Jinja2 prompt template for VLM OCR. When None, uses the default template. Available variables: - {{ language }} — The document language code (e.g., “eng”, “deu”).
acceleration Option<AccelerationConfig> None Hardware acceleration for ONNX Runtime models (e.g. PaddleOCR, layout detection). Not user-configurable via config files — injected at runtime from ExtractionConfig::acceleration before each process_image call.
tessdata_bytes HashMap<String, Vec<u8>> None Caller-supplied Tesseract traineddata bytes per language code. Primary use case is the WASM build, which has no filesystem and cannot download tessdata at runtime. Native builds typically rely on TessdataManager and ignore this field. When present, the WASM Tesseract backend prefers these bytes over its compile-time-bundled English data. Skipped by serde to keep config files small — supply via the typed API at runtime.
tessdata_path Option<PathBuf> None Runtime override for tessdata directory path. When set, uses this path as the highest-priority tessdata location, bypassing environment variables and cache directories. Useful for embedding pre-installed tessdata in applications. When None, uses the standard resolution chain: TESSDATA_PREFIX env, cache dir, system paths.

Page extraction and tracking configuration.

Controls how pages are extracted, tracked, and represented in the extraction results. When None, page tracking is disabled.

Page range tracking in chunk metadata (first_page/last_page) is automatically enabled when page boundaries are available and chunking is configured.

Field Type Default Description
extract_pages bool false Extract pages as separate array (ExtractedDocument.pages)
insert_page_markers bool false Insert page markers in main content string
marker_format String "<!-- PAGE {page_num} -->" Page marker format (use {page_num} placeholder) Default: “\n\n\n\n”

PDF-specific configuration.

Field Type Default Description
extract_images bool false Extract images from PDF
extract_tables bool true Extract tables from PDF. When true (default), runs pdf_oxide’s native grid detector and, if it finds nothing, falls back to the heuristic text-layer reconstruction in pdf::oxide::table::extract_tables_heuristic. Set to false to skip both passes — tables will then be empty in the result.
passwords Vec<String> None List of passwords to try when opening encrypted PDFs
extract_metadata bool true Extract PDF metadata
hierarchy Option<HierarchyConfig> None Hierarchy extraction configuration (None = hierarchy extraction disabled)
extract_annotations bool false Extract PDF annotations (text notes, highlights, links, stamps). Default: false
top_margin_fraction Option<f32> None Top margin fraction (0.0–1.0) of page height to exclude headers/running heads. Default: 0.06 (6%)
bottom_margin_fraction Option<f32> None Bottom margin fraction (0.0–1.0) of page height to exclude footers/page numbers. Default: 0.05 (5%)
allow_single_column_tables bool false Allow single-column pseudo tables in extraction results. By default, tables with fewer than 2 columns (layout-guided) or 3 columns (heuristic) are rejected. When true, the minimum column count is relaxed to 1, allowing single-column structured data (glossaries, itemized lists) to be emitted as tables. Other quality filters (density, sparsity, prose detection) still apply.
ocr_inline_images bool false Perform OCR on inline images extracted from PDF pages and attach the recognized text to each ExtractedImage.ocr_result. Requires Tesseract to be available; if ExtractionConfig.ocr is None the extractor falls back to TesseractConfig::default(). Per-image failures degrade gracefully (the image is returned without OCR text rather than failing the whole extraction). Default: false.
extract_form_fields bool true Extract AcroForm and XFA form fields into ExtractedDocument.form_fields. When true (default), reads the document’s interactive form structure (field names, types, values, widget geometry). Cheap and strictly additive — non-form PDFs simply yield an empty list. Set to false to skip the form pass entirely.
reading_order bool false Reorder extracted text by layout-detected reading order. When true, projects text spans onto layout-detected regions, performs column detection, and emits spans in natural reading order (important for multi-column academic PDFs). It also repairs 90/180/270-degree rotated text runs — sideways tables and captions — that otherwise read word-reversed and glued (GH#1358); see crate::extractors::pdf::reading_order for the rotation-handling details and its limits. Requires the layout-detection feature and a page for which layout detection actually produces hints: a page with no detected regions falls back to the original, unrepaired extraction order even with this enabled. Independent of LayoutStrategy, which only controls whether layout detection runs at all — enabling Always or Auto alone does not turn reordering on. Defaults to false.

Hierarchy extraction configuration for PDF text structure analysis.

Enables extraction of document hierarchy levels (H1-H6) based on font size clustering and semantic analysis. When enabled, hierarchical blocks are included in page content.

Field Type Default Description
enabled bool true Enable hierarchy extraction
k_clusters usize 3 Number of font size clusters to use for hierarchy levels (1-7) Default: 6, which provides H1-H6 heading levels with body text. Larger values create more fine-grained hierarchy levels.
include_bbox bool true Include bounding box information in hierarchy blocks

Post-processor configuration.

Field Type Default Description
enabled bool true Enable post-processors
enabled_processors Vec<String> None Whitelist of processor names to run (None = all enabled)
disabled_processors Vec<String> None Blacklist of processor names to skip (None = none disabled)
enabled_set Vec<String> None Pre-computed AHashSet for O(1) enabled processor lookup
disabled_set Vec<String> None Pre-computed AHashSet for O(1) disabled processor lookup

Chunking configuration.

Configures text chunking for document content, including chunk size, overlap, trimming behavior, and optional embeddings.

Use ..the default constructor when constructing to allow for future field additions:

Field Type Default Description
max_characters usize 1000 Maximum size per chunk (in units determined by sizing). When sizing is Characters (default), this is the max character count. When using token-based sizing, this is the max token count. Default: 1000
overlap usize 200 Overlap between chunks (in units determined by sizing). Default: 200
trim bool true Whether to trim whitespace from chunk boundaries. Default: true
chunker_type ChunkerType ChunkerType::Text Type of chunker to use (Text or Markdown). Default: Text
embedding Option<EmbeddingConfig> None Optional embedding configuration for chunk embeddings.
sparse_embedding Option<SparseEmbeddingConfig> None Optional sparse (SPLADE) embedding configuration for chunk embeddings. When set, sparse vectors are generated for each chunk’s content and attached via sparse_embedding. Requires the sparse-embeddings feature; without it, a warning is emitted and no sparse vectors are attached. Config-file only: like RerankerConfig and the local-ONNX branch of embedding, this has no CLI flag and no environment variable. Only the secret/identity fields of LLM-routed configs (model, API key, base URL) get that reach. ~keep
late_interaction Option<LateInteractionConfig> None Optional late-interaction (ColBERT) embedding configuration for chunk embeddings. When set, multi-vector embeddings are generated for each chunk’s content and attached via late_interaction. Requires the late-interaction feature; without it, a warning is emitted and no late-interaction vectors are attached. Config-file only, for the same reason as sparse_embedding above. ~keep
preset Option<String> None Use a preset configuration (overrides individual settings if provided).
sizing ChunkSizing ChunkSizing::Characters How to measure chunk size. Default: Characters (Unicode character count). Enable chunking-tiktoken or chunking-tokenizers features for token-based sizing.
prepend_heading_context bool false Deprecated and inert (#1393): no longer prepends anything into content. Setting this field has no observable effect on chunking output any more. Previously, when true and chunker_type was Markdown, this prepended the heading hierarchy path (e.g. "# Title > ## Section\n\n") directly into each chunk’s content string. content now always equals the exact \[byte_start, byte_end) source span regardless of this flag — see BreadcrumbTarget for the full rationale. heading_context/heading_path on ChunkMetadata are populated independently of this flag, so callers lose no information — only the in-place mutation is gone. Call render_heading_breadcrumb explicitly at index time instead, for the retrieval consumer that wants the breadcrumb inline. Kept only so existing callers keep compiling. Default: false
topic_threshold Option<f32> None Optional cosine similarity threshold for semantic topic boundary detection. Only used when chunker_type is Semantic and an EmbeddingConfig is provided. You almost never need to set this. When omitted, defaults to 0.75 which works well for most documents. Lower values detect more topic boundaries (more, smaller chunks); higher values detect fewer. Range: 0.0..=1.0.
table_chunking TableChunkingMode TableChunkingMode::Split How to handle markdown tables that exceed the chunk size limit. Only applies when chunker_type is Markdown. - Split (default) — tables are split at row boundaries; continuation chunks do not repeat the header. - RepeatHeader — the table header row and separator are prepended to every continuation chunk so each chunk is self-contained. Default: Split
breadcrumb_target BreadcrumbTarget BreadcrumbTarget::Content Deprecated and inert (#1393): see BreadcrumbTarget for the full explanation. Neither variant has any effect on content any more — call render_heading_breadcrumb explicitly at index time instead. Kept only for backward compatibility. Default: Content.

Embedding configuration for text chunks.

Configures embedding generation using ONNX models via the vendored embedding engine. Requires the embeddings feature to be enabled.

Field Type Default Description
model EmbeddingModelType EmbeddingModelType::Preset The embedding model to use (defaults to “gte-modernbert-base” preset if not specified)
normalize bool true Whether to normalize embedding vectors (recommended for cosine similarity)
batch_size usize 32 Batch size for embedding generation
show_download_progress bool false Show model download progress. When enabled, transfer progress for the model, tokenizer and config files is reported at info level on the xberg::model_download target while they download (#279). Covers both local backends (ONNX and static/model2vec). A warm Hugging Face cache transfers nothing and so reports nothing. Ignored by EmbeddingModelType::Llm and EmbeddingModelType::Plugin, which download no model.
cache_dir Option<PathBuf> None Optional alternate Hugging Face cache root for model files. When unset, hf-hub follows HF_HUB_CACHE, HUGGINGFACE_HUB_CACHE, HF_HOME, XDG, and platform defaults. Prefer those environment variables when configuring the cache process-wide.
acceleration Option<AccelerationConfig> None Hardware acceleration for the embedding ONNX model. When set, controls which execution provider (CPU, CUDA, CoreML, TensorRT) is used for inference. Defaults to None (auto-select per platform).
max_embed_duration_secs Option<u64> 60 Maximum wall-clock duration (in seconds) for a single embed() call when using EmbeddingModelType::Plugin. Applies only to the in-process plugin path — protects against hung host-language backends (e.g. a Python callback deadlocked on the GIL, a model stuck on CUDA OOM retries, etc.). On timeout, the dispatcher returns Plugin instead of blocking forever. None disables the timeout. The default (60 seconds) is conservative for common in-process inference; increase for large batches on slow hardware.
max_sequence_length Option<usize> None Maximum number of tokens fed to the tokenizer before truncation when embedding a chunk with a local ONNX model (Preset/Custom). A chunk longer than this many tokens has its tail dropped before inference, so only the prefix contributes to the stored vector. None falls back to 512 (the historical default). The effective value is always capped at the model’s own model_max_length, so raising it past what the model supports has no effect — set it to match a long-context model (e.g. 8192 for Jina/Nomic) so long chunks embed in full. Ignored by the Llm and Plugin model types, which own their own tokenization.

Configuration for the redaction post-processor.

Field Type Default Description
categories Vec<PiiCategory> vec!\[\] Categories to redact. Empty means “every category supported by the engine.”
strategy RedactionStrategy RedactionStrategy::Mask Strategy applied to every match.
ner Option<NerConfig> None Optional NER backend — required to redact PERSON / ORGANIZATION / LOCATION categories (the pure-Rust pattern engine only covers regex-detectable PII).
preserve_offsets bool true When true, chunk byte ranges are kept consistent with the rewritten content by adjusting byte_start / byte_end after replacement. When false, chunk byte ranges still refer to the original content offsets — useful when downstream consumers want to map findings back to the original document.
custom_terms Vec<RedactionTerm> vec!\[\] Arbitrary user-supplied literal terms to redact. Each term is treated as a regex hit against the document, surfacing as PiiCategory::Custom(label) in RedactionFinding where label is the per-term label (defaulting to the literal value itself). Case-insensitive by default; set RedactionTerm::case_sensitive for exact match. Use this when you need to redact tenant-specific tokens (employee IDs, project codes, internal product names) without writing a custom plugin.
custom_patterns Vec<RedactionPattern> vec!\[\] Arbitrary user-supplied regex patterns to redact. Same surfacing semantics as custom_terms: each hit becomes a PiiCategory::Custom(label) finding. Patterns are validated at config-construction time via RedactionConfig::validate.

Configuration for the reranking pipeline.

Controls which model to use, how many results to return, and download/cache behavior for local ONNX models.

Since v5.0.

Field Type Default Description
model RerankerModelType RerankerModelType::Preset The reranker model to use (defaults to “balanced” preset if not specified).
top_k Option<usize> None Return at most this many documents. None returns all. Applied after sorting by score, so the highest-scoring documents are kept.
batch_size usize 32 Batch size for local ONNX cross-encoder inference.
show_download_progress bool false Show model download progress (local ONNX path only). When enabled, transfer progress for the model, tokenizer and config files is reported at info level on the xberg::model_download target while they download (#279). A warm Hugging Face cache transfers nothing and so reports nothing. Ignored by RerankerModelType::Llm and RerankerModelType::Plugin, which download no model.
cache_dir Option<PathBuf> None Optional alternate Hugging Face cache root for model files. When unset, hf-hub follows the standard Hugging Face environment and platform cache conventions.
acceleration Option<AccelerationConfig> None Hardware acceleration for the reranker ONNX model. Controls which execution provider (CPU, CUDA, CoreML, TensorRT) is used for local inference. Defaults to None (auto-select per platform).
max_rerank_duration_secs Option<u64> 60 Maximum wall-clock duration (in seconds) for a single rerank() call when using RerankerModelType::Plugin. Applies only to the in-process plugin path — protects against hung host-language backends. On timeout, the dispatcher returns Plugin instead of blocking forever. None disables the timeout. The default (60 seconds) is conservative for common in-process inference; increase for large document sets on slow hardware.

Configuration for the sparse-embedding pipeline.

Controls which model to use, batching, and download/cache behavior for the local ONNX SPLADE model.

Since v5.0.

Field Type Default Description
model SparseEmbeddingModelType SparseEmbeddingModelType::Preset The sparse-embedding model to use (defaults to the “opensearch-v3-distill” preset).
batch_size usize Batch size for local ONNX inference. SPLADE emits a \[seq, vocab\] logit tensor per document, so memory scales with batch size — keep this modest.
max_length usize Maximum token sequence length for the tokenizer.
show_download_progress bool false Show model download progress (local ONNX path only). When enabled, transfer progress for the model, tokenizer and config files is reported at info level on the xberg::model_download target while they download (#279). A warm Hugging Face cache transfers nothing and so reports nothing. Ignored by SparseEmbeddingModelType::Plugin, which downloads no model.
cache_dir Option<PathBuf> None Optional alternate Hugging Face cache root for model files. When unset, hf-hub follows the standard Hugging Face environment and platform cache conventions.
acceleration Option<AccelerationConfig> None Hardware acceleration for the sparse-embedding ONNX model.
max_embed_duration_secs Option<u64> Default::default() Maximum wall-clock duration (in seconds) for a single embed call when using SparseEmbeddingModelType::Plugin. None disables the timeout.

Configuration for the summarisation post-processor.

Field Type Default Description
strategy SummaryStrategy SummaryStrategy::Extractive Summarisation strategy.
max_tokens Option<u32> Default::default() Maximum summary length in tokens. None lets the backend pick a default.
llm Option<LlmConfig> Default::default() LLM configuration for the abstractive backend. Ignored when strategy = Extractive. Required when strategy = Abstractive.

Configuration for audio/video transcription (speech-to-text).

When present and enabled, Xberg will route audio and video files (mp3, mp4, m4a, wav, webm, etc.) through the transcription pipeline.

The heavy dependencies (ORT, hf-hub, symphonia) are only pulled when the transcription feature is enabled. The config struct itself is available under transcription-types so that ExtractionConfig round-trips on all targets.

All fields have sensible defaults. The recommended starting point is:

[extraction.transcription]
enabled = true
model = "tiny"
Field Type Default Description
enabled bool true Master switch. When false, the transcription pipeline is not run. The extractor is registered for audio/video MIME types whenever the transcription feature is compiled in, independently of this flag, so an audio/video input with enabled = false fails with an XbergError::Transcription explaining how to turn transcription on — it does not fall through to another extractor.
model WhisperModel WhisperModel::Tiny Whisper model size to use. Smaller = faster + lower memory. tiny is the pragmatic default for first-time users and CI.
language Option<String> None Optional language hint (ISO-639-1 code, e.g. “en”, “de”). When None (default), the current engine falls back to English. For deterministic production output, always set this explicitly.
timestamps bool false Whether to request segment-level timestamps. When true, the decoder prompt omits <|notimestamps|> so the model emits <|x.xx|> tokens, and each transcript segment becomes its own paragraph element carrying start_ms / end_ms attributes. When false (default), all segment text is joined into a single flat paragraph with no timing attributes.
max_duration_ms Option<u64> Default::default() Hard safety limit on input duration (milliseconds). Files longer than this are rejected after decode, before model work. Default: 30 minutes. Set to None to disable (not recommended for untrusted input).
max_bytes Option<u64> Default::default() Hard safety limit on input size (bytes). Default: 512 MiB. Protects against pathological or malicious uploads.
timeout_ms Option<u64> Default::default() Wall-clock timeout for the entire transcription operation (ms). Bounds audio decode, model resolution/download, and inference together. On expiry the extraction fails with an XbergError::Transcription. None disables the bound and lets the operation run unbounded (not recommended for untrusted input). Enforced on the async extraction path only; the size and duration caps (max_bytes, max_duration_ms) are checked on every path. Default: 10 minutes.
model_cache_dir Option<PathBuf> None Optional alternate Hugging Face cache root for Whisper models. When unset, hf-hub follows HF_HUB_CACHE, HUGGINGFACE_HUB_CACHE, HF_HOME, XDG, and platform defaults. Files remain in the standard content-addressed snapshot layout and are not copied into an Xberg cache.
allow_network bool true Allow network access to download models from Hugging Face Hub. When false, only previously cached models may be used. Useful for air-gapped or fully offline deployments.
verify_hash bool false Request SHA256 verification of downloaded model files. Defaults to false because the resolver downloads from mutable Hugging Face refs unless callers pin and verify models out-of-band. Explicit true requests are rejected by the model resolver until pinned checksum metadata is available.

Configuration for the translation post-processor.

Field Type Default Description
target_lang String BCP-47 language tag for the target language (e.g. "de", "fr-CA").
source_lang Option<String> None Optional explicit source language. None asks the backend to auto-detect.
preserve_markup bool /* serde(default) */ Translate the formatted (Markdown/HTML) rendition alongside plain text when formatted_content is present.
llm LlmConfig LLM configuration used for translation.

Configuration for tree-sitter language pack integration.

Controls grammar download behavior and code analysis options.

[tree_sitter]
languages = ["python", "rust"]
groups = ["web"]
[tree_sitter.process]
structure = true
comments = true
docstrings = true
Field Type Default Description
enabled bool true Enable code intelligence processing (default: true). When false, tree-sitter analysis is completely skipped even if the config section is present.
cache_dir Option<PathBuf> None Custom cache directory for downloaded grammars. When None, uses the default: ~/.cache/tree-sitter-language-pack/v{version}/libs/. Consumed both by the CLI (tree-sitter download --from-config, cache warm) and by CodeExtractor at extraction time, so that a configured cache directory is honoured wherever grammars are looked up or downloaded, not only during an explicit CLI download.
languages Vec<String> None Languages to pre-download on init (e.g., \["python", "rust"\]). Consumed only by the CLI’s tree-sitter download --from-config and cache warm commands as a pre-download hint. Extraction itself does not read this field: a given source file always processes with a single, already auto-detected language, so there is nothing for a language allowlist to gate at extraction time.
groups Vec<String> None Language groups to pre-download (e.g., \["web", "systems", "scripting"\]). Consumed only by the CLI’s tree-sitter download --from-config and cache warm commands, for the same reason as languages above.
process TreeSitterProcessConfig Processing options for code analysis.

Processing options for tree-sitter code analysis.

Controls which analysis features are enabled when extracting code files.

Field Type Default Description

imports bool true Extract import statements. Default: true.
exports bool true Extract export statements. Default: true.
comments bool false Extract comments. Default: false.
docstrings bool false Extract docstrings. Default: false.
symbols bool false Extract symbol definitions. Default: false.
diagnostics bool false Include parse diagnostics. Default: false.
data_extraction bool false Extract a hierarchical key/value data tree from data-format files (JSON, YAML, TOML, XML, CSV, etc.). Default: false.
chunk_max_size Option<usize> None Maximum chunk size in bytes. None disables chunking.
content_mode CodeContentMode CodeContentMode::Chunks Content rendering mode for code extraction.

API server configuration.

  • host: “127.0.0.1” (localhost only)
  • port: 8000
  • cors_origins: empty listtor (allows all origins)
  • max_request_body_bytes: 104_857_600 (100 MB)

Field Type Default Description
host String Server host address (e.g., “127.0.0.1”, “0.0.0.0”)
port u16 Server port number
cors_origins Vec<String> vec!\[\] CORS allowed origins. Empty vector means allow all origins. If this is an empty vector, the server will accept requests from any origin. If populated with specific origins (e.g., "<https://example.com">), only those origins will be allowed.
max_request_body_bytes usize Maximum size of request body in bytes (default: 100 MB)

Configuration for security limits across extractors.

All limits are intentionally conservative to prevent DoS attacks while still supporting legitimate documents.

Field Type Default Description
max_archive_size usize 524288000 Maximum uncompressed size for archives (500 MB)
max_compression_ratio usize 100 Maximum compression ratio before flagging as potential bomb (100:1)
max_files_in_archive usize 10000 Maximum number of files in archive (10,000)
max_nesting_depth usize 1024 Maximum nesting depth for structures (100)
max_entity_length usize 1048576 Maximum length of any single XML entity / attribute / token (1 MiB). This is a per-token cap, NOT a total cap — billion-laughs class attacks where a single entity expands to hundreds of MB are caught here, while normal long text content (a paragraph, a CDATA block) is caught by max_content_size instead.
max_content_size usize 104857600 Maximum string growth per document (100 MB)
max_iterations usize 10000000 Maximum iterations per operation
max_xml_depth usize 1024 Maximum XML depth (100 levels)
max_table_cells usize 100000 Maximum cells per table (100,000)

Configuration for the token-reduction pipeline.

Field Type Default Description
level ReductionLevel ReductionLevel::Moderate Reduction intensity level.
language_hint Option<String> None ISO 639-1 language code hint for stopword selection (e.g. "en", "de").
preserve_markdown bool false Preserve Markdown formatting tokens during reduction.
preserve_code bool true Preserve code block contents unchanged.
semantic_threshold f32 0.3 Cosine similarity threshold below which sentences are considered dissimilar.
enable_parallel bool true Use Rayon parallel iterators for multi-core processing.
use_simd bool true Use SIMD-optimized text scanning where available.
custom_stopwords HashMap<String, Vec<String>> None Per-language custom stopword lists (language_code → stopword_list).
preserve_patterns Vec<String> vec!\[\] Regex patterns whose matched text is always preserved unchanged.
target_reduction Option<f32> None Target fraction of text to retain (0.0–1.0); None = no fixed target.
enable_semantic_clustering bool false Group semantically similar sentences and emit only one per cluster.
preserve_important_words bool true Skip removal of words with “important” characteristics (all-caps acronyms, words containing digits, mixed-case identifiers, very long words) during the Aggressive/Maximum common-word removal pass. true (the default) protects those words even when they would otherwise be dropped as low-value filler; false lets the frequency/ length heuristics apply uniformly to every word, including ones that look like acronyms or technical terms (#269).

Per-category running counter for RedactionStrategy.TokenReplace.

Opaque type — fields are not directly accessible.


Configuration for markdown footnote and citation parsing.

Field Type Default Description
parse_citations bool true Whether to parse the structured citation block (default: true). When enabled, the parser will look for and extract citations from the block after --- + <!-- citations ... -->.

Top-level structured document representation.

A flat array of nodes with index-based parent/child references forming a tree. Root-level nodes have parent: None. Use body_roots() and furniture_roots() to iterate over top-level content by layer.

Call validate() after construction to verify all node indices are in bounds and parent-child relationships are bidirectionally consistent.

Field Type Default Description
nodes Vec<DocumentNode> vec!\[\] All nodes in document/reading order.
source_format Option<String> Default::default() Origin format identifier (e.g. “docx”, “pptx”, “html”, “pdf”). Allows renderers to apply format-aware heuristics when converting the document tree to output formats.
relationships Vec<DocumentRelationship> vec!\[\] Resolved relationships between nodes (footnote refs, citations, anchor links, etc.). Populated during derivation from the internal document representation. Empty when no relationships are detected.
node_types Vec<String> vec!\[\] Sorted, deduplicated list of node type names present in this document. Each value is the snake_case node_type tag of the corresponding NodeContent variant (e.g. "paragraph", "heading", "table", …). Computed from nodes via DocumentStructure::finalize_node_types. Empty until that method is called (internal construction paths call it at the end of derivation).

Structured table grid with cell-level metadata.

Stores row/column dimensions and a flat list of cells with position info.

Field Type Default Description
rows u32 Number of rows in the table.
cols u32 Number of columns in the table.
cells Vec<GridCell> vec!\[\] All cells in row-major order.

Cheap structural counts for an extracted document.

Populated on every ExtractedDocument returned by extract / extract_batch, regardless of whether the heavy pages / images collections are materialized. A caller that only needs “how many pages / tables / images did this document have?” (reporting, cost estimation, progress, quotas) can read these without enabling per-page or per-image extraction.

The page count comes from the parse (the extractor already walks the page tree); it does not require opting into per-page content. pages is 0 for inputs that are not page-addressable (e.g. plain text).

Field Type Default Description
pages usize Total pages in the source document (0 when not page-addressable).
tables usize Tables detected in the document.
images usize Images detected in the document.

Document extracted by the core extraction pipeline.

extract and extract_batch return an ExtractionResult envelope whose results field contains these per-document payloads.

Field Type Default Description
content String Plain-text representation of the extracted document content.
mime_type String MIME type of the source document (e.g. "application/pdf").
metadata Metadata Document-level metadata (author, title, dates, format-specific fields).
extraction_method Option<ExtractionMethod> Default::default() Extraction strategy used to produce the returned text. Populated when the extractor can reliably distinguish native text extraction, OCR-only extraction, or mixed native/OCR output.
tables Vec<Table> vec!\[\] Tables extracted from the document, each with structured cell data.
counts DocumentCounts Cheap structural counts (pages, tables, images). Always populated by the extraction pipeline, even when the pages / images collections are None. See DocumentCounts.
detected_languages Vec<String> vec!\[\] ISO 639-1 language codes detected in the document content.
detected_language_confidences Vec<LanguageConfidence> vec!\[\] Structured per-language detection results: confidence, document share, script, and reliability, alongside the ISO-code-only detected_languages (#261). One entry per language in detected_languages, in the same order. None under the same conditions as detected_languages: detection disabled, empty input text, or no language met the configured min_confidence.
chunks Vec<Chunk> vec!\[\] Text chunks when chunking is enabled. When chunking configuration is provided, the content is split into overlapping chunks for efficient processing. Each chunk contains the text, optional embeddings (if enabled), and metadata about its position.
images Vec<ExtractedImage> vec!\[\] Extracted images from the document. When image extraction is enabled via ImageExtractionConfig, this field contains all images found in the document with their raw data and metadata. Each image may optionally contain a nested ocr_result if OCR was performed.
pages Vec<PageContent> vec!\[\] Per-page content when page extraction is enabled. When page extraction is configured, the document is split into per-page content with tables and images mapped to their respective pages.
elements Vec<Element> vec!\[\] Semantic elements when element-based result format is enabled. When result_format is set to ElementBased, this field contains semantic elements with type classification, unique identifiers, and metadata for Unstructured-compatible element-based processing.
djot_content Option<DjotContent> Default::default() Rich Djot content structure (when extracting Djot documents). When extracting Djot documents with structured extraction enabled, this field contains the full semantic structure including: - Block-level elements with nesting - Inline formatting with attributes - Links, images, footnotes - Math expressions - Complete attribute information The content field still contains plain text for backward compatibility. Always None for non-Djot documents.
ocr_elements Vec<OcrElement> vec!\[\] OCR elements with full spatial and confidence metadata. When OCR is performed with element extraction enabled, this field contains the structured representation of detected text including: - Bounding geometry (rectangles or quadrilaterals) - Confidence scores (detection and recognition) - Rotation information - Hierarchical relationships (Tesseract only) This field preserves all metadata that would otherwise be lost when converting to plain text or markdown output formats. Only populated when OcrElementConfig.include_elements is true.
document Option<DocumentStructure> Default::default() Structured document tree (when document structure extraction is enabled). When include_document_structure is true in ExtractionConfig, this field contains the full hierarchical representation of the document including: - Heading-driven section nesting - Table grids with cell-level metadata - Content layer classification (body, header, footer, footnote) - Inline text annotations (formatting, links) - Bounding boxes and page numbers Independent of result_format — can be combined with Unified or ElementBased.
extracted_keywords Vec<Keyword> vec!\[\] Extracted keywords when keyword extraction is enabled. When keyword extraction (RAKE or YAKE) is configured, this field contains the extracted keywords with scores, algorithm info, and position data. Previously stored in metadata.additional\["keywords"\].
quality_score Option<f64> Default::default() Document quality score from quality analysis. A value between 0.0 and 1.0 indicating the overall text quality. Previously stored in metadata.additional\["quality_score"\].
processing_warnings Vec<ProcessingWarning> vec!\[\] Non-fatal warnings collected during processing pipeline stages. Captures errors from optional pipeline features (embedding, chunking, language detection, output formatting) that don’t prevent extraction but may indicate degraded results. Previously stored as individual keys in metadata.additional.

children Vec<ArchiveEntry> vec!\[\] Nested extraction results from archive contents. When extracting archives, each processable file inside produces its own full extraction result. Set to None for non-archive formats. Use max_archive_depth in config to control recursion depth.
uris Vec<ExtractedUri> vec!\[\] URIs/links discovered during document extraction. Contains hyperlinks, image references, citations, email addresses, and other URI-like references found in the document. Always extracted when present in the source document.
revisions Vec<DocumentRevision> vec!\[\] Tracked changes embedded in the source document. Populated by per-format extractors that understand change-tracking metadata (DOCX w:ins/w:del/w:rPrChange, ODT text:change-*, …). Every extractor defaults to None until its format-specific implementation is added. Extractors that do populate this field follow the “accepted-changes” convention: inserted text is present in content, deleted text is absent — the revision list is the separate audit trail.
structured_output Option<serde_json::Value> Default::default() Structured extraction output from LLM-based JSON schema extraction. When structured_extraction is configured in ExtractionConfig, the extracted document content is sent to a VLM with the provided JSON schema.

Contains metrics, structural analysis, imports/exports, comments, docstrings, symbols, diagnostics, and optionally chunked code segments. Stored as an opaque JSON value so that all language bindings (Go, Java, C#, …) can deserialize it as a raw JSON object rather than a typed struct. The underlying type is tree_sitter_language_pack::ProcessResult.
llm_usage Vec<LlmUsage> vec!\[\] LLM token usage and cost data for all LLM calls made during this extraction. Contains one entry per LLM call. Multiple entries are produced when VLM OCR, structured extraction, or LLM embeddings run during the same extraction. None when no LLM was used.
entities Vec<Entity> vec!\[\] Named entities detected in content by the NER post-processor. None when no NER backend is configured. Populated by the xberg-gliner ONNX backend or the LLM-driven backend (see crates/xberg/src/text/ner/).
summary Option<DocumentSummary> Default::default() Summary of content produced by the summarisation post-processor. None when summarisation is not configured. Populated by the TextRank extractive backend (deterministic, no external service) or by the liter-llm-driven abstractive backend.

The redaction processor rewrites content, formatted_content, every chunk’s text, and the textual fields of entities / summary / translation / page_classifications in place. This report describes what was found and how it was replaced. None when redaction is not configured.
formulas Vec<Formula> vec!\[\] Mathematical formulas recognized in the document. Populated by the layout-guided formula pipeline when the layout-detection feature is enabled and the document contains regions classified as formulas. Empty otherwise.
form_fields Vec<PdfFormField> vec!\[\] Form fields extracted from a PDF’s AcroForm or XFA structure. Populated by the PDF extractor when PdfConfig::extract_form_fields is enabled (default) and the document is a fillable form. Empty otherwise.

Token usage and cost data for a single LLM call made during extraction.

Separates detection confidence (how confident that text exists at this location) from recognition confidence (how confident about the actual text content).

Field Type Default Description
detection Option<f64> Default::default() Detection confidence: how confident the OCR engine is that text exists here. PaddleOCR provides this as box_score, Tesseract doesn’t have a direct equivalent. Range: 0.0 to 1.0 (or None if not available).
recognition f64 Recognition confidence: how confident about the text content. Range: 0.0 to 1.0.

A unified OCR element representing detected text with full metadata.

This is the primary type for structured OCR output, preserving all information from both Tesseract and PaddleOCR backends.

Field Type Default Description

geometry OcrBoundingGeometry OcrBoundingGeometry::Rectangle Bounding geometry (rectangle or quadrilateral).
confidence OcrConfidence Confidence scores for detection and recognition.
level OcrElementLevel OcrElementLevel::Line Hierarchical level (word, line, block, page).
rotation Option<OcrRotation> Default::default() Rotation information (if detected).
page_number u32 Page number (1-indexed).
parent_id Option<String> Default::default() Parent element ID for hierarchical relationships. Only used for Tesseract output which has word -> line -> block hierarchy.

Field Type Default Description
include_elements bool Whether to include OCR elements in the extraction result. When true, the ocr_elements field in ExtractedDocument will be populated.
min_level OcrElementLevel OcrElementLevel::Line Minimum hierarchical level to include. Elements below this level (e.g., words when min_level is Line) will be excluded.
min_confidence f64 Minimum recognition confidence threshold (0.0-1.0). Elements with confidence below this threshold will be filtered out.
build_hierarchy bool Whether to build hierarchical relationships between elements. When true, parent_id fields will be populated based on spatial containment. Only meaningful for Tesseract output.

A detected layout region on a page.

When layout detection is enabled, each page may have layout regions identifying different content types (text, pictures, tables, etc.) with confidence scores and spatial positions.

Field Type Default Description
class_name String Layout class name (e.g. “picture”, “table”, “text”, “section_header”).
confidence f64 Confidence score from the layout detection model (0.0 to 1.0).
bounding_box BoundingBox Bounding box in document coordinate space.
area_fraction f64 Fraction of the page area covered by this region (0.0 to 1.0).

The content changes that make up a single revision.

For insertions and deletions the content field carries the added/removed lines as DiffLine.Added / DiffLine.Removed entries. For format changes, property_changes carries normalized before/after formatting values when the source document exposes them.

Field Type Default Description
content Vec<DiffLine> vec!\[\] Line-level content changes for this revision.
table_changes Vec<CellChange> vec!\[\] Cell-level table changes for this revision.
property_changes Vec<PropertyChange> vec!\[\] Formatting or metadata property changes for this revision.

Extracted table structure.

Represents a table detected and extracted from a document (PDF, image, etc.). Tables are converted to both structured cell data and Markdown format.

Field Type Default Description

markdown String Markdown representation of the table
page_number u32 Page number where the table was found (1-indexed)
bounding_box Option<BoundingBox> Default::default() Bounding box of the table on the page (PDF coordinates: x0=left, y0=bottom, x1=right, y1=top). Only populated for PDF-extracted tables when position data is available.
table_id Option<String> Default::default() Stable identifier shared by every tables\[\] entry that represents a fragment of the same physical table. Assigned deterministically by the extraction pipeline (e.g. a sequential "table-N" in document order); never derived from randomness or wall-clock time, so the same input document always produces the same ids. Consumers can use it to reconcile the markdown blocks in content / pages\[\].content / chunks\[\].content with the structured entries in tables\[\]. None when the extractor did not assign one. Today, same-page fragments of one physical table are already merged into a single tables\[\] entry before ids are assigned (see PDF table stitching), so in practice table_id is unique per entry rather than shared across several. A table split across a page boundary is intentionally not linked — its per-page pieces get separate ids. Sharing one id across page-boundary fragments is a known possible future extension, not implemented yet.
columns Vec<String> vec!\[\] Header cells for this fragment, i.e. the first row of cells. Populated even when this fragment’s own header row was merged away or physically lives in a sibling fragment (see table_id), so a single fragment is interpretable in isolation. None when no header row could be determined.

Individual table cell with content and optional styling.

Future extension point for rich table support with cell-level metadata.

Field Type Default Description
content String Cell content as text
row_span u32 Row span (number of rows this cell spans)
col_span u32 Column span (number of columns this cell spans)
is_header bool Whether this is a header cell

max_content_chars Option<usize> None Truncate content to this many characters before diffing. Useful for very large documents where only the first N characters matter. None means no truncation.

The complete diff between two ExtractedDocument values.

Field Type Default Description
content_diff Vec<DiffHunk> vec!\[\] Unified-diff hunks for the content field. Empty when the content is identical.
tables_added Vec<Table> vec!\[\] Tables present in b but not in a (by index position, excess right-side tables).
tables_removed Vec<Table> vec!\[\] Tables present in a but not in b (by index position, excess left-side tables).
tables_changed Vec<TableDiff> vec!\[\] Cell-level changes for table pairs that share the same index and dimensions.
metadata_changed serde_json::Value Metadata difference, encoded as a JSON object with three top-level keys: added (keys present in b but not a), removed (keys present in a but not b), and changed (keys whose values differ — each entry is { "from": <value-in-a>, "to": <value-in-b> }). This is NOT RFC 6902 JSON Patch — we deliberately chose a flatter shape to avoid pulling in a json-patch crate. If you need RFC 6902 semantics (with JSON Pointer paths) feed a.metadata and b.metadata to your preferred json-patch impl directly.
embedded_changes EmbeddedChanges Changes to embedded archive children.

Changes to embedded archive children between two results.

Field Type Default Description
added Vec<ArchiveEntry> vec!\[\] Children present in b but not in a (matched by path).

yake_params Option<YakeParams> None YAKE-specific tuning parameters.
rake_params Option<RakeParams> None RAKE-specific tuning parameters.

disk_processing_threshold_bytes u64 52428800 File size threshold for disk-based processing. Files larger than this are buffered to disk to prevent OOM. Default: 50 MiB (50 × 1 024 × 1 024).
min_chars_per_page u32 50 Minimum characters per page to consider a page as having text. Default: 50.
max_xlsx_sheet_count u32 200 Maximum sheet count allowed in an XLSX workbook. Workbooks beyond this are rejected pre-extraction to avoid OOM / abusive billing inflation. Default: 200.
max_xlsx_workbook_cells u64 5000000 Maximum cell count (sheets × rows × columns approximation) in an XLSX workbook. Default: 5 000 000 (≈ 200 sheets × 25 k cells).

use_angle_cls bool Enable angle classification for rotated text (default: false). Can misfire on short text regions, rotating crops incorrectly before recognition.
enable_table_detection bool Enable table structure detection (default: false)
det_db_thresh f32 Database threshold for text detection (default: 0.3) Range: 0.0-1.0, higher values require more confident detections
det_db_box_thresh f32 Box threshold for text bounding box refinement (default: 0.5) Range: 0.0-1.0
det_db_unclip_ratio f32 Unclip ratio for expanding text bounding boxes (default: 1.6) Controls the expansion of detected text regions

model_tier String Model tier controlling detection/recognition model size and accuracy trade-off. For PP-OCRv5 (model_version = "pp-ocrv5"): - "mobile" (default): Lightweight models (~4.5MB detection, ~16.5MB recognition), fast download and inference - "server": Large, high-accuracy models (~88MB detection, ~84MB recognition), best for GPU or complex documents For PP-OCRv6 (model_version = "pp-ocrv6"): "medium" (default), "small", or "tiny". A legacy "mobile"/"server" tier under v6 falls back to "medium".
model_version String Model generation: "pp-ocrv6" (default) or "pp-ocrv5". PP-OCRv6 adds a unified CJK+Latin+JA/KO recognition model with medium/small/tiny tiers (see model_tier). Scripts outside the v6 unified coverage (Arabic, Cyrillic, Devanagari, Greek, Tamil, Telugu, Thai) transparently fall back to the PP-OCRv5 per-script recognition models. Defaults to "pp-ocrv6"; the default model_tier ("mobile") resolves to the v6 "medium" tier. Select "pp-ocrv5" to pin the legacy per-script/unified fleet.
inference_backend Option<PaddleInferenceBackend> Default::default() Explicit inference engine choice. None (the default) resolves to the compiled default: ort when the paddle-ocr-ort feature is compiled in, otherwise tract. An explicit choice is validated against the compiled features when the OCR engine is constructed (see crate::paddle_ocr::backend::effective_backend); requesting an engine whose feature is not compiled in is a clear configuration error rather than a silent fallback.

Chunk-classification enrichment knob: how to multi-label individual chunks.

Operates on ExtractedDocument.chunks in place — the caller must have already produced chunks (e.g. via ExtractionConfig.chunking) for this stage to have any effect; a document with no chunks is a no-op.

Field Type Default Description

eval_script Option<String> None JavaScript snippet evaluated after navigation completes. Scraping captures the native backend result in ScrapeResult.browser.eval_result. Interactions run this script before page actions on both browser backends but do not include the script result in InteractionResult.
robots_user_agent Option<String> None User-agent used when fetching robots.txt. Defaults to BrowserConfig.user_agent (or crawlberg’s default) if unset. Native only.
capture_network_events bool false Capture the full network event stream into the result. Default false (only the document event is captured). Native only.
session_affinity bool true Enable session affinity: reuse chromiumoxide Pages for same-domain requests so cookies + fingerprint + solved challenges persist. Default: true. When false, each request gets a fresh Page.

respect_robots_txt bool false Whether to respect robots.txt directives.
soft_http_errors bool false When true, HTTP-level error responses (404 NotFound, 403 Forbidden, WAF blocks) are surfaced as ScrapeResult records with the matching status_code rather than raised as CrawlError. Default false preserves the historical throw-on-error contract for direct fetches. Independently of this flag, 404s reached at the end of a redirect chain are always surfaced softly — the user opted into redirect-following, so receiving a 404 there is part of the normal flow rather than an unexpected error.
user_agent Option<String> None Custom user-agent string.
stay_on_domain bool false Whether to restrict crawling to the same domain.
allow_subdomains bool false Whether to allow subdomains when stay_on_domain is true.
include_paths Vec<String> vec!\[\] Regex patterns for paths to include during crawling.

document_url_depth Option<u32> None Maximum document-depth (from the seed URL through document links only) when follow_document_urls is true. None means inherit max_depth. Independent of max_depth: a document URL is enqueued only if BOTH the outer max_depth and (if set) document_url_depth permit it.
download_documents bool true Whether to download non-HTML documents (PDF, DOCX, images, code, etc.) instead of skipping them.
document_max_size Option<usize> 52428800 Maximum size in bytes for document downloads. Defaults to 50 MB.
document_mime_types Vec<String> vec!\[\] Allowlist of MIME types to download. If empty, uses built-in defaults.

ssrf SsrfPolicy SSRF policy for outbound network requests. Default: deny private networks, allow http/https only, max 5 redirects. Phase 1: deny_private and max_redirects are exposed to all language bindings. allowlist is skipped (see SsrfPolicy fields) and will be added in a follow-up when HostMatcher’s tagged-enum FFI form is decided.

Main conversion options for HTML to Markdown conversion.

Use ConversionOptions.builder() to construct, or the default constructor for defaults.

Field Type Default Description
heading_style HeadingStyle HeadingStyle::Atx Heading style to use in Markdown output (ATX # or Setext underline).
list_indent_type ListIndentType ListIndentType::Spaces How to indent nested list items (spaces or tab).
list_indent_width usize 2 Number of spaces (or tabs) to use for each level of list indentation.
bullets String "-*+" Bullet character(s) to use for unordered list items (e.g. "-", "*").
strong_em_symbol String "*" Character used for bold/italic emphasis markers (* or _).
escape_asterisks bool false Escape * characters in plain text to avoid unintended bold/italic.
escape_underscores bool false Escape _ characters in plain text to avoid unintended bold/italic.
escape_misc bool false Escape miscellaneous Markdown metacharacters (\[\]()# etc.) in plain text.
escape_ascii bool false Escape ASCII characters that have special meaning in certain Markdown dialects.
code_language String "" Default language annotation for fenced code blocks that have no language hint.
autolinks bool true Automatically convert bare URLs into Markdown autolinks.
default_title bool false Emit a default title when no <title> tag is present.
br_in_tables bool false Render <br> elements inside table cells as literal line breaks.
compact_tables bool false Emit tables without column padding (compact GFM format). When true, column widths are not computed and cells are emitted with no trailing spaces. Separator rows use exactly --- per column. Produces token-efficient output suitable for RAG / LLM contexts. Default false (aligned padding preserved).
highlight_style HighlightStyle HighlightStyle::DoubleEqual Style used for <mark> / highlighted text (e.g. ==text==).
extract_metadata bool true Populate result.metadata with <head> / <meta> extraction (title, description, Open Graph, Twitter Card, JSON-LD, …). Default true. Disabling skips the metadata pass only — table extraction into result.tables runs unconditionally.
whitespace_mode WhitespaceMode WhitespaceMode::Normalized Controls how whitespace sequences are normalised in the converted output. - WhitespaceMode::Normalized (default) — collapses consecutive whitespace characters (spaces, tabs, newlines) to a single space, matching browser rendering behaviour. - WhitespaceMode::Strict — preserves all whitespace exactly as it appears in the source HTML, including runs of spaces and embedded newlines. Choose Strict only when the source HTML uses deliberate whitespace (e.g. pre-formatted content outside <pre> tags). For most documents Normalized produces cleaner output.
strip_newlines bool false Strip all newlines from the output, producing a single-line result.
wrap bool false Wrap long lines at wrap_width characters.
wrap_width usize 80 Maximum output line width in characters when wrap is true (default 80). Lines are broken at word boundaries so that no line exceeds this length. A value of 0 is treated as “no limit” — equivalent to leaving wrap disabled. Has no effect when wrap is false.
convert_as_inline bool false Treat the entire document as inline content (no block-level wrappers).
sub_symbol String "" Markdown notation for subscript text (e.g. "~").
sup_symbol String "" Markdown notation for superscript text (e.g. "^").
newline_style NewlineStyle NewlineStyle::Spaces How to encode hard line breaks (<br>) in Markdown.
code_block_style CodeBlockStyle CodeBlockStyle::Backticks Style used for fenced code blocks (backticks or tilde).
keep_inline_images_in Vec<String> vec!\[\] HTML tag names whose <img> children are kept inline instead of block.
preprocessing PreprocessingOptions Options for the HTML pre-processing pass applied before conversion begins. Pre-processing runs before the HTML is handed to the converter and can perform operations such as unwrapping redundant wrapper elements, removing tracking pixels, and normalising vendor-specific markup. See PreprocessingOptions for the full set of knobs. Defaults to PreprocessingOptions::default(), which enables the standard cleaning passes. Set individual fields on PreprocessingOptions (or construct via ConversionOptions::builder) to opt in or out of specific passes.
encoding String "utf-8" Expected character encoding of the input HTML (default "utf-8").
debug bool false Emit debug information during conversion.
strip_tags Vec<String> vec!\[\] HTML tag names whose content is stripped from the output entirely.
preserve_tags Vec<String> vec!\[\] HTML tag names that are preserved verbatim in the output.
skip_images bool false Skip conversion of <img> elements (omit images from output).
url_escape_style UrlEscapeStyle UrlEscapeStyle::Angle URL encoding strategy for link and image destinations. Controls how special characters in URL destinations are escaped: - UrlEscapeStyle::Angle (default) — wraps the destination in angle brackets when it contains spaces or newlines. Some parsers misinterpret > inside such a destination. - UrlEscapeStyle::Percent — percent-encodes every character that is not an RFC 3986 unreserved character or /, producing a destination that all Markdown parsers handle correctly even when the URL contains <, >, spaces, or parentheses.
link_style LinkStyle LinkStyle::Inline Link rendering style (inline or reference).
max_image_size u64 5242880 Maximum decoded image size in bytes (default 5MB).
capture_svg bool false Capture SVG elements as images.
infer_dimensions bool true Infer image dimensions from data.
max_depth Option<usize> None Maximum DOM traversal depth. None uses the library’s internal native-stack safety limit. Explicit values above that safety limit are clamped to prevent process-aborting stack overflows on pathologically deep DOM trees.
exclude_selectors Vec<String> vec!\[\] CSS selectors for elements to exclude entirely (element + all content). Unlike strip_tags (which removes the tag wrapper but keeps children), excluded elements and all their descendants are dropped from the output. Supports any CSS selector that tl supports: tag names, .class, #id, \[attribute\], etc. Invalid selectors are silently skipped at conversion time. Example: vec!\[".cookie-banner".into(), "#ad-container".into(), "\[role='complementary'\]".into()\]

HTML preprocessing options for document cleanup before conversion.

Field Type Default Description
enabled bool true Enable HTML preprocessing globally
preset PreprocessingPreset PreprocessingPreset::Standard Preprocessing preset level (Minimal, Standard, Aggressive)

heading_context Option<HeadingContext> /* serde(default) */ Heading context when using Markdown chunker. Contains the heading hierarchy this chunk falls under. Only populated when ChunkerType::Markdown is used.
heading_path Vec<String> /* serde(default) */ Flattened heading trail from document root to this chunk’s section. Each element is a heading’s text, outermost first. Derived from heading_context when present; empty otherwise. Provides a binding-friendly, RAG-shaped breadcrumb without requiring callers to walk the nested HeadingContext structure.
image_indices Vec<u32> /* serde(default) */ Indices into ExtractedDocument.images for images on pages covered by this chunk. Contains zero-based indices into the top-level images collection for every image whose page_number falls within \[first_page, last_page\]. Empty when image extraction is disabled or the chunk spans no pages with images.
node_ids Vec<String> /* serde(default) */ Ids of the DocumentNodes this chunk was derived from. Joins a chunk back to the structured document tree via DocumentNode::id. Empty until the node-to-rendered-offset mapping needed to compute the intersection is implemented (tracked under #1294/#1295); this field is the wire-format foundation for that follow-up.
page_spans Vec<PageSpan> /* serde(default) */ Per-page bounding-box spans this chunk covers, for viewer highlighting (#1295). One entry per page the chunk overlaps, in page order — the first and last entries’ page fields equal first_page/last_page. Populated whenever page-boundary provenance is available (the same condition under which first_page/last_page are populated); each entry’s bbox is additionally populated when the document’s structured node tree (ExtractedDocument::document) is available, as the union of that page’s body-layer node bounding boxes found within this chunk. Empty when page-boundary provenance is unavailable (mirrors first_page/ last_page being None).
classifications Vec<ClassificationLabel> /* serde(default) */ Multi-label classification result for this chunk. Populated by the chunk-classification post-processor when ExtractionConfig::chunk_classification is set. A chunk may match zero, one, or many of the configured label definitions. Empty when chunk classification was not configured.

resize_error Option<String> None Error message if resize failed

Code-format metadata: the structural chunks produced by tree-sitter parsing.

Field Type Default Description
id String /* serde(default) */ Deterministic identifier (hash of node type + text + page + position). Stable and unique within a single extraction response: every internal construction path threads the node’s position (its index in DocumentStructure::nodes) into the hash, so identical (node_type, text, page) tuples at different positions never collide. Always serialised — ChunkMetadata::node_ids references it to join chunks back to the nodes they were derived from. #\[serde(default)\] covers the missing-field case on inbound JSON (e.g. documents serialised before this field existed).
content NodeContent Node content — tagged enum, type-specific data only.

Always serialised — Kotlin-Android (and any other typed binding) treats the field as non-nullable, so omitting it from the JSON wire would break consumer deserialisation. #\[serde(default)\] covers the missing-field case on inbound JSON.
page Option<u32> None Page number where this node starts (1-indexed).
page_end Option<u32> None Page number where this node ends (for multi-page tables/sections).
bbox Option<BoundingBox> None Bounding box in document coordinates.
annotations Vec<TextAnnotation> /* serde(default) */ Inline annotations (formatting, links) on this node’s text content. Only meaningful for text-carrying nodes; empty for containers.
attributes HashMap<String, String> None Format-specific key-value attributes. Extensible bag for miscellaneous data without a dedicated typed field: CSS classes, LaTeX environment names, Excel cell formulas, slide layout names, etc.

Individual grid cell with position and span metadata.

Field Type Default Description
content String Cell text content.

Bounding box for an OCR-detected table in pixel coordinates.

Field Type Default Description
left u32 Left x-coordinate (pixels)
top u32 Top y-coordinate (pixels)
right u32 Right x-coordinate (pixels)
bottom u32 Bottom y-coordinate (pixels)

A node in the hierarchical data tree produced by data-format extraction.

Purpose-built payload owned by xberg — mirrors tree_sitter_language_pack.DataNode but flattens its Span down to plain byte offsets, so binding generators never need to resolve an external crate’s types across FFI/language boundaries.

Field Type Default Description
kind CodeDataNodeKind Whether this node is a key/value pair, XML element, or sequence item.
key Option<String> /* serde(default) */ Key, attribute name, tag name, or positional index ("0", "1", …). None at the document root.
value Option<String> /* serde(default) */ Leaf scalar value, if any. None for containers (objects, arrays, XML elements with child elements).
attributes Vec<CodeDataAttribute> /* serde(default) */ Attributes on element-shape nodes (XML STag attributes). Empty for all other kinds.
children Vec<CodeDataNode> /* serde(default) */ Children for nested containers and XML element bodies.
byte_start usize Inclusive start byte offset of this node in the original source.
byte_end usize Exclusive end byte offset of this node in the original source.

Cell-level changes for a pair of tables that share the same index.

Field Type Default Description
from_index usize Zero-based index of the table in both a.tables and b.tables.
to_index usize Zero-based index in b.tables (equal to from_index for same-dimension tables).
cell_changes Vec<CellChange> Cell-level changes within the table.

Pre-computed table markdown for a table detection region.

Produced by the TATR-based table structure recognizer and surfaced as part of layout-aware OCR results. The struct lives here (under layout-types, pure-Rust) so that consumers who do not enable layout-detection (ORT) can still reference the type in their own code.

Field Type Default Description
detection_bbox BBox Detection bbox that this table corresponds to (for matching).
cells Vec<Vec<String>> Table cells as a 2D vector (rows × columns).
markdown String Rendered markdown table.

Aggregate statistics for a xberg cache directory.

Field Type Default Description
total_files usize Total number of files currently in the cache directory.
total_size_mb f64 Combined size of all cache files in megabytes.
available_space_mb f64 Free disk space available on the cache volume, in megabytes.
oldest_file_age_days f64 Age of the oldest cache file in days (0.0 if the cache is empty).
newest_file_age_days f64 Age of the most recently written cache file in days (0.0 if the cache is empty).

A single labeled definition the chunk classifier may emit.

Unlike PageClassificationConfig.labels (bare label names), chunk classification targets potentially large domain taxonomies where every label carries its own semantic description, letting the LLM disambiguate similarly named labels without relying on the label string alone.

Field Type Default Description
label String Label name returned in ChunkMetadata::classifications.
description String Semantic description of when this label applies. Injected verbatim into the classification prompt next to the label name.

Non-fatal per-input extraction error captured by ExtractionResult.

Field Type Default Description
index usize Input index in the original request.
code u32 Stable numeric error code.
error_type String Stable snake_case error kind.
source String Best-effort source identifier.
message String Error message.

A single backend stage in the OCR pipeline.

Field Type Default Description
backend String Backend name: “tesseract”, “paddleocr”, “paddle-ocr”, “sceptre”, “vlm”, or a custom registered name. Sceptre uses ONNX Runtime on desktop/server and tract on Android/iOS; browser WebAssembly has a separate byte-fed engine because the normal async OCR registry assumes native model storage.
priority u32 serde(default = "default_priority") Priority weight (higher = tried first). Stages are sorted by priority descending.
language Vec<String> /* serde(default) */ Language override for this stage (None = use parent OcrConfig.language). A list is the canonical form and the only form accepted by the binding object APIs: \["eng", "deu"\]. When deserializing from a config file, JSON body, or the REST/MCP API, a single string is also accepted, either as one code (“eng”) or “+”-joined (“eng+deu”).
tesseract_config Option<TesseractConfig> /* serde(default) */ Tesseract-specific config override for this stage.
paddle_ocr_config Option<serde_json::Value> /* serde(default) */ PaddleOCR-specific config for this stage.
vlm_config Option<LlmConfig> /* serde(default) */ VLM config override for this pipeline stage.
backend_options Option<serde_json::Value> /* serde(default) */ Arbitrary per-call options passed through to the backend unchanged. Backends that support runtime tuning (mode switching, preprocessing flags, inference parameters, etc.) read this value and deserialize the keys they care about. Keys unknown to the backend are silently ignored, so options from different backends can coexist in the same config without conflict. Example (custom backend): json { "mode": "fast", "enable_layout": true }

One user-supplied literal term to redact.

Matched as a regex-escaped substring (so callers do not need to escape metacharacters themselves). Case-insensitive by default — set Self.case_sensitive to True for exact byte-match semantics.

Field Type Default Description
label String Custom category label surfaced in RedactionFinding::category.
value String Literal value to match. Regex metacharacters are escaped automatically.
case_sensitive bool serde(default = "default_case_sensitive") When true, match the value as-is; otherwise match ASCII-case-insensitively.

One user-supplied regex pattern to redact.

The pattern is compiled with the Rust regex crate (no look-around). Case sensitivity is encoded in the pattern via the (?i) inline flag when Self.case_sensitive is False.

Field Type Default Description
label String Custom category label surfaced in RedactionFinding::category.
pattern String Regex pattern (Rust regex crate dialect — no look-around).
case_sensitive bool serde(default = "default_case_sensitive") When true, match case-sensitively; otherwise prepend (?i) to the regex.

A supported document format entry.

Represents a file extension and its corresponding MIME type that Xberg can process.

Field Type Default Description
extension String File extension (without leading dot), e.g., “pdf”, “docx”
mime_type String MIME type string, e.g., “application/pdf”

Trait for in-process embedding backend plugins.

Async to match the convention used by other plugin hooks such as OcrBackend and PostProcessor. Host-language bridges (PyO3, napi-rs, Rustler, extendr, magnus, ext-php-rs, C FFI, etc.) wrap their synchronous host callables in spawn_blocking or the equivalent to satisfy the async signature.

Backends must be Send + Sync + 'static. They are stored in Arc<dyn EmbeddingBackend> and called concurrently from xberg’s chunking pipeline. If the backend’s underlying model isn’t thread-safe, the backend itself must serialize access internally (e.g. via Mutex<Inner>).

  • embed(texts) MUST return exactly texts.len() vectors, each of length self.dimensions(). The dispatcher in crate.embeddings.embed_texts validates this before returning to downstream consumers; a non-conforming backend surfaces as a XbergError.Validation, not a panic.

  • embed may be called from any thread. Its future must be Send (enforced by async_trait when #[async_trait] is used on non-WASM targets).

  • dimensions() is called exactly once at registration, immediately after initialize() succeeds. The returned value is cached by the registry and used for all subsequent shape validation. Lazy-loading implementations can defer model loading into initialize() and report the real dimension afterwards. Later mutations of the backend’s reported dimension are not observed by xberg — implementations that need to change dimension must unregister and re-register.

  • shutdown() (inherited from Plugin) may be invoked concurrently with an in-flight embed() call. Implementations must tolerate this — e.g. by letting in-flight calls finish using resources held via the Arc<dyn EmbeddingBackend> reference, and only releasing shared state that isn’t needed by embed.

The synchronous embed_texts entry uses tokio.task.block_in_place to await the trait’s async embed, which requires a multi-thread tokio runtime. Callers running inside a current_thread runtime (e.g. #[tokio.test] without flavor = "multi_thread", or tokio.runtime.Builder.new_current_thread()) must use embed_texts_async instead, which awaits directly without block_in_place.

Opaque type — fields are not directly accessible.


Trait for document extractor plugins.

Implement this trait to add support for new document formats or override built-in extraction behavior. Foreign-language bindings expose the DocumentExtractor.extract method, which accepts ExtractInput and returns an ExtractedDocument.

When multiple extractors support the same MIME type, the registry selects the extractor with the highest priority value. Use this to:

  • Override built-in extractors (priority > 50)
  • Provide fallback extractors (priority < 50)
  • Implement specialized extractors for specific use cases

Default priority is 50.

Extractors must be thread-safe (Send + Sync) to support concurrent extraction.

Opaque type — fields are not directly accessible.


Trait for OCR backend plugins.

Implement this trait to add custom OCR capabilities. OCR backends can be:

  • Native Rust implementations (like Tesseract)
  • FFI bridges to external libraries (like PaddleOCR)
  • Cloud-based OCR services (Google Vision, AWS Textract, etc.)

OCR backends must be thread-safe (Send + Sync) to support concurrent processing.

Opaque type — fields are not directly accessible.


Trait for post-processor plugins.

Post-processors transform or enrich extraction results after the initial extraction is complete. They can:

  • Clean and normalize text
  • Add metadata (language, keywords, entities)
  • Split content into chunks
  • Score quality
  • Apply custom transformations

Post-processors are executed in stage order:

  1. Early - Language detection, entity extraction
  2. Middle - Keyword extraction, token reduction
  3. Late - Custom hooks, final validation

Within each stage, processors are executed in registration order.

Post-processor errors are non-fatal by default - they’re captured in metadata and execution continues. To make errors fatal, return an error from process().

Post-processors must be thread-safe (Send + Sync).

Opaque type — fields are not directly accessible.


Trait for document renderers that convert extraction results to output strings.

Renderers are typically stateless converters that transform extracted content into a specific output format (Markdown, HTML, Djot, plain text, etc.). They participate in the standard Plugin lifecycle so custom renderers can be registered from any supported binding language.

The format name is exposed via Plugin.name. For stateless renderers the Plugin lifecycle methods (version, initialize, shutdown) all take no-op defaults and need not be overridden.

Renderers must be Send + Sync (inherited from Plugin).

Opaque type — fields are not directly accessible.


Trait for in-process reranker backend plugins.

Cross-encoders score (query, document) pairs jointly and return a raw logit per document. The dispatcher in rerank applies sigmoid to convert logits to [0, 1] scores, sorts descending by score, and truncates to top_k.

Async to match the convention used by EmbeddingBackend and other plugin traits. Host-language bridges wrap their synchronous host callables in spawn_blocking or the equivalent.

Backends must be Send + Sync + 'static. They are stored in Arc<dyn RerankerBackend> and may be called concurrently from xberg’s dispatcher. If the backend’s underlying model is not thread-safe, the backend itself must serialize access internally (e.g. via Mutex<Inner>).

  • rerank(query, documents) MUST return exactly documents.len() scores. The dispatcher validates this before sorting and returning to callers; a non-conforming backend surfaces as a XbergError.Validation, not a panic.

  • Scores are raw logits in any range — callers must NOT assume [0, 1]. The dispatcher applies sigmoid before sorting.

  • rerank may be called from any thread. Its future must be Send (enforced by async_trait when #[async_trait] is used on non-WASM targets).

  • shutdown() (inherited from Plugin) may be invoked concurrently with an in-flight rerank() call. Implementations must tolerate this — letting in-flight calls finish via the Arc reference and only releasing shared state that isn’t needed by rerank.

The synchronous rerank entry uses tokio.task.block_in_place to await the trait’s async rerank, which requires a multi-thread tokio runtime. Callers running inside a current_thread runtime must use rerank_async instead.

Since v5.0.

Opaque type — fields are not directly accessible.


Trait for in-process tokenizer backend plugins.

Unlike EmbeddingBackend, this trait is synchronous: the chunk splitter calls Self.count_tokens inside its boundary search, many times per chunk, so counting must be a direct call with no async dispatch. Host-language bridges (PyO3, napi-rs, etc.) invoke their host callable synchronously on the calling thread; implementations should keep count_tokens cheap — it dominates chunking time when the backend is slow.

initialize() is called once during registration, before any count_tokens call; lazy-loading implementations should load their vocabulary there. After registration succeeds, count_tokens may be called from any thread, concurrently. shutdown() runs on unregistration and may overlap an in-flight count_tokens call from a chunking run that resolved the backend earlier — implementations must tolerate this, e.g. by keeping the resources count_tokens needs alive via Arc.

Backends must be Send + Sync + 'static (inherited from Plugin). They are stored in Arc<dyn TokenizerBackend> and called concurrently from xberg’s chunking pipeline. If the underlying tokenizer isn’t thread-safe, the backend must serialize access internally.

  • count_tokens must return a non-zero count for non-empty text. The registry probes this once at registration and rejects backends that report zero — a zero count would make every span appear to fit any budget. At runtime, a zero count for non-empty text is not trusted: the chunker substitutes the character count and logs the substitution. (An implementation may still return 0 for the empty string.)

  • count_tokens must not panic; return a best-effort count for text the tokenizer can’t fully process.

  • Counting should be deterministic for a given input — the splitter may evaluate overlapping spans of the same text repeatedly.

Opaque type — fields are not directly accessible.


Base trait that all plugins must implement.

This trait provides common functionality for plugin lifecycle management, identification, and metadata.

All plugins must be Send + Sync to support concurrent usage across threads.

Opaque type — fields are not directly accessible.


Trait for validator plugins.

Validators check extraction results for quality, completeness, or correctness. Unlike post-processors, validator errors fail fast - if a validator returns an error, the extraction fails immediately.

  • Quality Gates: Ensure extracted content meets minimum quality standards
  • Compliance: Verify content meets regulatory requirements
  • Content Filtering: Reject documents containing unwanted content
  • Format Validation: Verify extracted content structure
  • Security Checks: Scan for malicious content

Validator errors are fatal - they cause the extraction to fail and bubble up to the caller. Use validators for hard requirements that must be met.

For non-fatal checks, use post-processors instead.

Validators must be thread-safe (Send + Sync).

Opaque type — fields are not directly accessible.

Structured per-language detection result: confidence, document share, and script — the information the ISO-code-only detected_languages list cannot convey (#261).

Populated by language_detection alongside detected_languages, with one entry per language, in the same order as detected_languages.

Field Type Default Description
language String ISO 639-3 language code, matching the corresponding entry in detected_languages.
confidence f64 Confidence for this language, in \[0.0, 1.0\]. In single-language mode this is whatlang’s Info::confidence() for the whole document. In multi-language mode this is the average whatlang confidence across the document’s 200-character chunks that were classified as this language.
proportion f64 Share of the document’s analyzed content classified as this language, in \[0.0, 1.0\]. In single-language mode this is always 1.0. In multi-language mode this is the fraction of 200-character chunks classified as this language (chunks that did not meet min_confidence for any language are excluded from the count but still count toward the denominator).
script String Writing system whatlang detected for this language (e.g. "Latin", "Cyrillic").
reliable bool Whether this detection is considered reliable. In single-language mode this is whatlang’s own Info::is_reliable() (confidence above whatlang’s internal 0.9 threshold). In multi-language mode this is the chunk-averaged confidence above that same 0.9 threshold, since whatlang’s is_reliable() only applies to a single detection.

A single file extracted from an archive.

When archives (ZIP, TAR, 7Z, GZIP) are extracted with recursive extraction enabled, each processable file produces its own full ExtractedDocument.

Field Type Default Description

A text chunk with optional embedding and metadata.

Chunks are created when chunking is enabled in ExtractionConfig. Each chunk contains the text content, optional embedding vector (if embedding generation is configured), and metadata about its position in the document.

Field Type Default Description
content String The text content of this chunk.
chunk_type ChunkType /* serde(default) */ Semantic structural classification of this chunk. Assigned by the heuristic classifier based on content patterns and heading context. Defaults to ChunkType::Unknown when no rule matches.
embedding Vec<f32> None Optional embedding vector for this chunk. Only populated when EmbeddingConfig is provided in chunking configuration. The dimensionality depends on the chosen embedding model.
sparse_embedding Option<SparseEmbedding> /* serde(default) */ Optional sparse (SPLADE) learned embedding for this chunk. Only populated when sparse-embedding generation is configured for chunking. None otherwise, including on builds without the sparse-embeddings feature. Uses the crate-root SparseEmbedding alias rather than crate::sparse_embeddings::SparseEmbedding directly: the sparse_embeddings module itself only compiles under sparse-embeddings/sparse-embedding-presets, while the crate-root alias is always defined (a field-compatible stub on builds without either feature), so this field — and Chunk itself — compiles on every feature combination, including the crate’s default features.
late_interaction Option<MultiVectorEmbedding> /* serde(default) */ Optional ColBERT-style multi-vector (late-interaction) embedding for this chunk. Only populated when late-interaction embedding generation is configured for chunking. None otherwise, including on builds without the late-interaction feature. Uses the crate-root MultiVectorEmbedding alias for the same reason sparse_embedding uses SparseEmbedding — see that field’s docs.
metadata ChunkMetadata Metadata about this chunk’s position and properties.

Heading context for a chunk within a Markdown document.

Contains the heading hierarchy from document root to this chunk’s section.

Field Type Default Description

A form field extracted from a PDF’s AcroForm or XFA structure.

Populated by the PDF extractor when PdfConfig.extract_form_fields is enabled and the document is a fillable form. Supports both AcroForm (standard) and XFA (XML Forms Architecture) layers. When both are present, AcroForm fields take priority (canonical fallback per PDF spec), and XFA-only fields are appended. The collection is empty for non-form PDFs and for non-PDF formats.

PdfConfig.extract_form_fields: crate.core.config.PdfConfig.extract_form_fields

Field Type Default Description

default_value Option<String> /* serde(default) */ Default field value, if any.
flags u32 /* serde(default) */ Raw field-flags bitmask (read-only, required, multiline, …).
page Option<u32> /* serde(default) */ 1-indexed page the field’s widget appears on. Currently always None for AcroForm fields; page assignment is a deferred enhancement requiring spatial analysis of widget annotations per page.
bbox Option<BoundingBox> /* serde(default) */ Widget bounding box on its page, if known.
max_length Option<u32> /* serde(default) */ Maximum input length for text fields, if specified.
tooltip Option<String> /* serde(default) */ Tooltip / alternate field description, if present.

Contains all sheets from an Excel file (.xlsx, .xls, etc.) with extracted content and metadata.

Field Type Default Description
sheets Vec<ExcelSheet> All sheets in the workbook
metadata HashMap<String, String> Workbook-level metadata (author, creation date, etc.)
revisions Vec<DocumentRevision> /* serde(default) */ Collaborative-edit revision headers from xl/revisions/revisionHeaders.xml. Populated for legacy shared-workbook .xlsx files that contain the xl/revisions/ directory. Each <header> element maps to one DocumentRevision { kind: FormatChange } carrying the header’s guid (→ revision_id), userName (→ author), and dateTime (→ timestamp). anchor and delta are None/empty for v1 (per-cell log parsing is a follow-up). None when xl/revisions/revisionHeaders.xml is absent.

Single Excel worksheet.

Represents one sheet from an Excel workbook with its content converted to Markdown format and dimensional statistics.

Field Type Default Description

is_image bool Whether this attachment is an image
data Option<Vec<u8>> None Attachment data (if extracted). Uses bytes::Bytes for cheap cloning of large buffers.

A mathematical formula detected and recognized in a document.

Populated by the layout-guided formula pipeline: regions classified as LayoutClass.Formula are routed to the formula OCR task, which returns the LaTeX source for the region. The field is always present on ExtractedDocument but only populated when the layout-detection feature is active and the document contains formula regions.

Field Type Default Description
latex String LaTeX source of the recognized formula, without surrounding $$ delimiters. This field contains the raw LaTeX code as produced by the OCR backend. To render the formula in Markdown or other formats, wrap with $$..$$ delimiters as needed.
bbox BoundingBox Bounding box of the formula region on its page, in rendered-image pixel coordinates. The coordinates are in the space of the OCR-rendered page image at the OCR DPI (typically 300 DPI). These coordinates are NOT comparable to bounding boxes from native PDF text extraction, which use PDF point coordinates.
page u32 1-indexed page number the formula appears on in the document. This is set by the extraction pipeline based on which page the formula was found on.

A single structurally-meaningful code chunk produced by tree-sitter parsing.

Purpose-built payload owned by xberg — deliberately does not expose the upstream tree_sitter_language_pack types, so binding generators never need to resolve an external crate’s types across FFI/language boundaries.

Set to true when path count exceeds a heuristic threshold, signaling that downstream consumers may want to rasterize the page to capture this content. Only populated for PDFs; None for other document types.

Content for a single page/slide.

When page extraction is enabled, documents are split into per-page content with associated tables and images mapped to each page.

Uses shared tables and images for memory efficiency:

  • list[Table] enables zero-copy sharing of table data
  • list[ExtractedImage] enables zero-copy sharing of image data
  • Maintains exact JSON compatibility via custom Serialize/Deserialize

This reduces memory overhead for documents with shared tables/images by avoiding redundant copies during serialization.

Deprecated and inert. Chunking no longer writes a heading breadcrumb into content for either variant of this enum — see the revised design adopted in https://github.com/xberg-io/xberg/issues/1393. Setting this field has no effect on chunking output any more. It is kept only so the ~15 alef-generated binding packages that construct it keep compiling; removing it outright is a separate, coordinated breaking change.

The original design (this enum, plus ChunkingConfig::prepend_heading_context) let Content mode prepend the heading breadcrumb directly into a chunk’s content. GH#1393’s follow-up discussion argued that a single flag on the chunker cannot serve all three retrieval consumers of the same chunk: dense/ embedding retrieval wants the breadcrumb inline, but lexical (BM25/TF-IDF) and sparse learned (SPLADE) retrieval are actively harmed by it — SPLADE worse than BM25, because its term-expansion pulls each heading’s whole learned neighbourhood (e.g. "Authentication"auth, login, credential, oauth) into every chunk of that section, and that damage cannot be corrected by re-indexing since the expansion comes from a pretrained encoder, not the collection being indexed. Mutating content also desynced it from byte_start/byte_end (#1294): chunk.content.len() != byte_end - byte_start whenever a breadcrumb had been prepended, so slicing the source document by a chunk’s own offsets silently returned different text than content.

The revised design removes the mutation entirely: chunk.content now always equals the exact [byte_start, byte_end) source span, regardless of this enum’s value or prepend_heading_context.

Call render_heading_breadcrumb explicitly at index time, with a chunk’s (always-clean) content and its heading_context — only for the consumer that wants the breadcrumb inline (typically dense/embedding). BM25 and SPLADE consumers need no special handling: index chunk.content as returned. See the rag module docs for the full per-consumer guidance.

Variant Wire value Description
Content content Inert (#1393). Previously prepended the heading breadcrumb into chunk content; no longer has any effect — content is left untouched, exactly like Metadata. Kept as the default only for wire/API compatibility.
Metadata metadata Inert (#1393), and was already a no-op on content before this change. Kept only for backward compatibility, since Content is no longer distinguishable from it.

How a structured-extraction preset is dispatched to the model.

This is the preset-facing call mode (the preferred_call_mode field of a Preset). The structured pipeline has a richer runtime-only decision enum with skip and fallback states; this 3-variant type is the stable, serializable surface presets and bindings depend on.

Variant Wire value Description
TextOnly text_only Use the extracted text only.
VisionOnly vision_only Use rasterized page images only.
TextPlusVision text_plus_vision Provide both extracted text and page images to the model.

How chunk size is measured.

Defaults to Characters (Unicode character count). When using token-based sizing, chunks are sized by token count according to the specified tokenizer.

Token-based sizing uses HuggingFace tokenizers loaded at runtime, or a tokenizer backend you register yourself. Any tokenizer available on HuggingFace Hub can be used, including OpenAI-compatible tokenizers (e.g., Xenova/gpt-4o, Xenova/cl100k_base). To size chunks with your own tokenizer instead (llama.cpp/GGUF vocabularies, SentencePiece models, custom vocabs), register a TokenizerBackend with register_tokenizer_backend and set model to the registered name.

Variant Wire value Description

Type of text chunker to use.

  • Text - Generic text splitter, splits on whitespace and punctuation
  • Markdown - Markdown-aware splitter, preserves formatting and structure
  • Yaml - YAML-aware splitter, creates one chunk per top-level key
  • Semantic - Topic-aware chunker. With an EmbeddingConfig, splits at embedding-based topic shifts tuned by topic_threshold (default 0.75, lower = more splits). Without an embedding, falls back to a structural-boundary heuristic (ALL-CAPS headers, numbered sections, blank-line paragraphs) and merges groups into chunks capped at max_characters (default 1000). topic_threshold has no effect in the fallback path. For best results, pair with an embedding model.
Variant Wire value Description
Text text Generic whitespace- and punctuation-aware text splitter (default).
Markdown markdown Markdown-aware splitter that preserves heading and code-block boundaries.
Yaml yaml YAML-aware splitter that creates one chunk per top-level key.
Semantic semantic Topic-aware chunker that splits at embedding-based topic shifts.

Variant Wire value Description
Chunks chunks Use TSLP semantic chunks as content (default).
Raw raw Use raw source code as content.
Structure structure Emit function/class headings + docstrings (no code bodies).

Discriminates the shape of a CodeDataNode.

Purpose-built mirror of tree_sitter_language_pack::DataNodeKind — kept as an xberg-owned type so binding generators never need to resolve the upstream crate’s types across FFI/language boundaries.

Since: v1.1

Managed credential-provider configuration for OAuth2/STS-based authentication modes liter-llm cannot express via a static api_key. See LlmConfig::credential_provider.

Debug is implemented by hand: CredentialProviderConfig::AzureAd’s client_secret is a credential and must never be printed, matching LlmConfig’s own redaction policy. The other variants carry no secret material — CredentialProviderConfig::VertexOauth2 and CredentialProviderConfig::BedrockWebIdentity reference a file path, never the key or token itself.

Variant Wire value Description
AzureAd azure_ad Azure AD OAuth2 client-credentials flow (Azure OpenAI / Azure Cognitive Services). — Fields: tenant_id: String, client_id: String, client_secret: String, scope: String
VertexOauth2 vertex_oauth2 Google Vertex AI OAuth2 via a service-account JSON key file on disk. Points at a file path rather than embedding the key inline: the key file contains an RSA private key — stronger secret material than an API key — and LlmConfig must never carry that directly, matching the credential-handling policy the rest of this module follows. — Fields: service_account_key_file: String, scope: String
VertexAdc vertex_adc Google Vertex AI Application Default Credentials, resolved from the GCE/GKE/Cloud Run metadata server. Carries no secret material at all. — Fields: scope: String
BedrockWebIdentity bedrock_web_identity AWS STS AssumeRoleWithWebIdentity (EKS IRSA / OIDC federation) for Bedrock. — Fields: role_arn: String, token_file: String, session_name: String, region: String

A single line in a unified-diff hunk.

Defined here (rather than only in crate::diff) so RevisionDelta can reference it unconditionally, without requiring the diff Cargo feature. crate::diff re-exports this type verbatim.

Variant Wire value Description

Embedding model types supported by Xberg.

Variant Wire value Description
Preset preset Use a preset model configuration (recommended) — Fields: name: String
Custom custom Use a custom ONNX model from HuggingFace — Fields: model_id: String, dimensions: usize
Llm llm Provider-hosted embedding model via liter-llm. Uses the model specified in the nested LlmConfig (e.g., "openai/text-embedding-3-small"). — Fields: llm: LlmConfig
Plugin plugin In-process embedding backend registered via the plugin system. The caller registers an EmbeddingBackend once (e.g. a wrapper around an already-loaded llama-cpp-python, sentence-transformers, or tuned ONNX model), then references it by name in config. Xberg calls back into the registered backend during chunking and standalone embed requests — no HuggingFace download, no ONNX Runtime requirement, no HTTP sidecar. When this variant is selected, only the following EmbeddingConfig fields apply: normalize (post-call L2 normalization) and max_embed_duration_secs (dispatcher timeout). Model-loading fields (batch_size, cache_dir, show_download_progress, acceleration) are ignored — the host owns the model lifecycle, so there is no download to report progress for. Semantic chunking falls back to ChunkingConfig::max_characters when this variant is used, since there is no preset to look a chunk-size ceiling up against — size your context window via max_characters directly. See register_embedding_backend. — Fields: name: String

Inference backend that an EmbeddingPreset runs on.

Onnx presets require the embeddings feature (ONNX Runtime, not available on WASM/Android x86_64 emulator). Static presets require static-embeddings (pure-Rust model2vec inference, no ORT — the only dense-embedding backend available on no-ort-target).

Defaults to Onnx via #[serde(default)] so every existing preset payload (which predates this field) keeps deserializing without change.

Variant Wire value Description
Onnx onnx ONNX Runtime transformer inference (the historical, default backend).
Static static Pure-Rust static (model2vec) inference — no ONNX Runtime.

Standard entity categories produced by built-in NER backends.

Checkbox checkbox Checkbox (on/off toggle).
Radio radio Radio-button group member.
Choice choice Choice field (dropdown or list box).
Signature signature Digital-signature field.

Unknown unknown Field type that could not be classified.

Format-specific metadata (discriminated union).

Only one format type can exist per extraction result. This provides type-safe, clean metadata without nested optionals.

Variant Wire value Description
Pdf pdf Metadata extracted from a PDF document. — Fields: _0: PdfMetadata
Docx docx Metadata extracted from a DOCX Word document. — Fields: _0: DocxMetadata
Excel excel Metadata extracted from an Excel spreadsheet. — Fields: _0: ExcelMetadata

Pst pst Metadata extracted from an Outlook PST archive. — Fields: _0: PstMetadata
Audio audio Metadata extracted from an audio or video file. — Fields: _0: AudioMetadata
Code code Code (tree-sitter analyzable source). Carries the structural chunks (function, class, and module boundaries) produced by the tree-sitter extractor, consumed by the chunking pipeline to emit structure-aware Chunks instead of falling back to text-based splitting. Wraps CodeMetadata (a named struct) rather than Vec<CodeChunkInfo> directly: FormatMetadata is internally tagged (#\[serde(tag = "format_type")\]), and serde cannot serialize a tagged newtype variant that wraps a sequence — the tag has no map to live in. Wrapping a struct gives serde a map to hold the tag, and keeps this variant shape consistent with every sibling (Variant(XMetadata)) so the derived OpenAPI discriminator can reference a named component schema. — Fields: _0: CodeMetadata

Heading style options for Markdown output.

Controls how headings (h1-h6) are rendered in the output Markdown.

Variant Description
Underlined Underlined style (=== for h1, — for h2).

Html Preserve as HTML (==text==). Original HTML tag.
Bold Render as bold (text). Uses strong emphasis.
None Strip formatting, render as plain text. No markup.

Built-in HTML theme selection.

Variant Wire value Description

GitHub github GitHub Markdown-inspired palette and spacing.
Dark dark Dark background, light text.
Light light Minimal light theme with generous whitespace.
Unstyled unstyled No built-in stylesheet emitted. CSS custom properties are still defined on :root so user stylesheets can reference var(--kb-*) tokens.

Chart chart Chart, graph, or plot
Drawing drawing Freehand or technical drawing
TextBlock text_block Text-heavy image (scanned text, document)
Decoration decoration Decorative element or border

Mask mask Mask or transparency map
PageRaster page_raster Full-page render produced during OCR preprocessing; used as a citation thumbnail.
Unknown unknown Could not classify with reasonable confidence

Target format for re-encoding extracted images.

Controls whether and how extracted images are normalised to a uniform container format before being returned in ExtractedDocument.images. The default (Native) preserves the format produced by each extractor without any additional encode pass.

Callers that need uniform output — e.g. cloud pipelines that always store WebP thumbnails — set this once on ImageExtractionConfig.output_format rather than re-encoding downstream.

Uses a tagged enum: {"type": "native"}, {"type": "png"}, {"type": "jpeg", "quality": 90}, etc.

Variant Wire value Description
Native native Preserve whatever format the extractor produced (default). No re-encode pass is performed. ExtractedImage.format reflects the source format: JPEG for embedded PDF images, PNG for rasterised content, or the native container format from office documents.
Png png Re-encode all extracted images as PNG (lossless).
Jpeg jpeg Re-encode all extracted images as JPEG at the given quality level. quality must be in 1..=100. Values outside this range are clamped and a warning is emitted. Higher values produce larger files with less artefacting; 85 is a reasonable default. — Fields: quality: u8
Webp webp Re-encode all extracted images as WebP at the given quality level. quality must be in 1..=100. Values outside this range are clamped and a warning is emitted. 80 is a reasonable default. — Fields: quality: u8
Heif heif Re-encode all extracted images as HEIF/HEIC at the given quality level. quality must be in 1..=100. Values outside this range are clamped and a warning is emitted. 80 is a reasonable default. The encode path requires the heic feature; on builds without it, selecting this variant returns an EncodeFailed warning and leaves the image untouched. — Fields: quality: u8
Svg svg Output pure-vector SVG. Lossless. Raster sources are not re-encoded (a warning is emitted and the image bytes are left untouched). When the source is already SVG, the bytes are passed through the usvg sanitizer (strips external hrefs, JS event handlers, and foreignObject elements) when SvgOptions::sanitize is true. Requires the svg feature.

Controls how Jupyter notebook code cells are rendered during extraction.

A code cell carries both its source and any outputs that were saved in the notebook. Callers ingesting notebooks for AI agents want different slices of this depending on the task. Xberg never executes cells — Outputs and Both only surface outputs already stored in the .ipynb.

This toggle governs a code cell’s source body and its saved outputs. Markdown (prose) cells and structural markers (kernel language, cell id, tags, execution count) are unaffected — prose always renders and markers orient the reader regardless of mode.

Variant Wire value Description
Source source Render the code source as a fenced code block; omit saved outputs.
Outputs outputs Omit the code source; render only the saved cell outputs.
Both both Render both the code source and the saved outputs (default; preserves the historical behavior).

Keyword algorithm selection.

Variant Wire value Description

CheckboxUnselected checkbox_unselected Checkbox in unselected state.
Form form Form field or form element.
KeyValueRegion key_value_region Key-value pair region (e.g. label + value in a form).

Which PDF pages the layout model runs on.

Layout detection renders each selected page to a raster and runs ONNX inference on it, which dominates extraction cost. This controls page selection; LayoutStrategy::Always preserves the historical behavior of running on every page. Wire format is snake_case in all serializers (JSON, TOML, YAML).

Variant Wire value Description
Always always Run layout detection unconditionally on every page.
Auto auto Pre-screen each page with cheap geometry signals and run the model only on pages likely to benefit (multi-column, table-bearing, figure-heavy, form-like, or rotated pages). Pages the pre-screen skips are processed exactly like pages where the model ran and found no regions. On the OCR path only inference is skipped; page rasters are still produced because OCR consumes them. For non-PDF inputs Auto behaves as LayoutStrategy::Always.

Link rendering style in Markdown output.

Controls whether links and images use inline [text](url) syntax or reference-style [text][1] syntax with definitions collected at the end.

Variant Description
Inline Inline links: \[text\](url). Default.
Reference Reference-style links: \[text\]\[1\] with \[1\]: url at end of document.

Link type classification.

Footnote footnote Footnote reference content. — Fields: text: String
Comment comment Reviewer/editor comment content (e.g. DOCX comments). Distinct from NodeContent::Footnote (xberg-io/xberg#300): comments and footnotes both reach the internal document via a marker/definition pair, but a consumer needs to tell a reviewer comment apart from an authored footnote. — Fields: text: String

OCR backend types.

Variant Description
Tesseract Tesseract OCR (native Rust binding)
PaddleOCR PaddleOCR (Python-based, via FFI)
Candle Candle-based VLM OCR (TrOCR, PaddleOCR-VL).
Custom Name-selected built-in or third-party OCR backend.

Bounding geometry for an OCR element.

Supports both axis-aligned rectangles (from Tesseract) and 4-point quadrilaterals (from PaddleOCR and rotated text detection).

Variant Wire value Description
Rectangle rectangle Axis-aligned bounding box (typical for Tesseract output). — Fields: left: u32, top: u32, width: u32, height: u32
Quadrilateral quadrilateral 4-point quadrilateral for rotated/skewed text (PaddleOCR). Points are in clockwise order starting from top-left: \[top_left, top_right, bottom_right, bottom_left\]

Maps to Tesseract’s page segmentation hierarchy and provides equivalent semantics for PaddleOCR.

Variant Wire value Description
Word word Individual word
Line line Line of text (default for PaddleOCR)
Block block Paragraph or text block
Page page Page-level element

Which pages of a PDF get OCR’d when neither force_ocr nor force_ocr_pages applies.

Variant Wire value Description
Auto auto OCR only when the native text layer fails a quality check (default). A scanner’s invisible OCR sidecar passes that check, so scanned pages carrying one are extracted natively. Use OcrStrategy::ScannedPages to OCR them instead.
ScannedPages scanned_pages Additionally OCR every page that looks like a scan. Pages are graded on raster coverage, whether the text layer is invisible or absent, the image codec, and the producer. Pages at or above min_confidence are OCR’d; the rest keep native text and still go through the Auto quality check. Detects that a text layer came from a scanner, not whether it is accurate, so a page carrying a good sidecar is OCR’d too. — Fields: min_confidence: f64

Output format for extraction results.

Controls the format of the content field in ExtractedDocument. When set to Markdown, Djot, or Html, the output uses that format. Plain returns the raw extracted text. Structured is currently a metadata-only label: derive_extraction_result returns None for it (see extraction/derive.rs), so no renderer runs and the content is left exactly as Plain would leave it. Only metadata.output_format differs. It does NOT attach OCR element data, bounding boxes or confidence scores.

Variant Wire value Description
Plain plain Plain text content only (default)
Markdown markdown Markdown format
Djot djot Djot markup format
Html html HTML format
Json json JSON tree format with heading-driven sections.
Structured structured Metadata-only label; content is identical to OutputFormat::Plain. No dedicated renderer exists yet, so this attaches no OCR element metadata. See the enum-level docs above.
DocTags doctags Docling DocTags format (tables rendered as OTSL).
Custom custom Custom renderer registered via the RendererRegistry. The string is the renderer name (e.g., “docx”, “latex”). — Fields: _0: String

Page Segmentation Mode for Tesseract OCR.

Variant Description
OsdOnly Orientation and script detection only.
AutoOsd Automatic page segmentation with OSD.
AutoOnly Automatic page segmentation without OSD or OCR.
Auto Fully automatic page segmentation with no OSD (default).

SingleChar Treat the image as a single character.

Which concrete ONNX inference engine PaddleOCR model loading uses.

Mirrors sceptre::Backend for the PaddleOCR backend: Ort is the native, full-featured path (acceleration/execution-provider hook, ONNX-embedded dictionary metadata); Tract is the pure-Rust, CPU-only path used on targets where ort cannot link (Android x86_64 emulator, WASM once wired).

Variant Wire value Description

Outcome of a single doctor check.

Variant Wire value Description
Pass pass The backend or setting will work as configured.
Warn warn The check ran and found something actionable, but nothing is broken (e.g. stray cache files, stale model revisions). Never fails the report.
Fail fail The configured setup will not work (or will silently degrade) on this host.
Skip skip The check cannot run locally (e.g. model not cached, feature not compiled in); first real use decides, possibly after a download.

Processing stages for post-processors.

Post-processors are executed in stage order (Early → Middle → Late). Use stages to control the order of post-processing operations.

Variant Description
Early Early stage - foundational processing. Use for: - Language detection - Character encoding normalization - Entity extraction (NER) - Text quality scoring
Middle Middle stage - content transformation. Use for: - Keyword extraction - Token reduction - Text summarization - Semantic analysis
Late Late stage - final enrichment. Use for: - Custom user hooks - Analytics/logging - Final validation - Output formatting

Strategy applied when a PII match is rewritten.

Variant Wire value Description
Mask mask Replace the matched span with a fixed mask token (default "\[REDACTED\]").
Hash hash Replace with a SHA-256 hash of the original value (truncated to 16 hex chars). Lets downstream consumers do equality joins without recovering the source.
TokenReplace token_replace Replace with a per-category running token ("\[PERSON_1\]", "\[PERSON_2\]", …) so the same person referenced twice gets the same token within the document.
Drop drop Delete the matched span entirely.

Intensity level for the token-reduction pipeline.

Variant Description
Off No reduction applied; text is returned as-is.
Light Remove only the most common stopwords.
Moderate Balanced stopword removal and redundancy filtering.
Aggressive Aggressive filtering; may remove less common content words.
Maximum Maximum compression; prioritizes brevity over completeness.

Classification of a detected layout region that warrants VLM extraction.

Each variant maps to a specific prompt optimised for that content type. The mapping is intentionally narrow — only region kinds for which VLM extraction provides a clear quality benefit over classical suppression.

Variant Description
Figure A figure, diagram, chart, or image region. VLM prompt: describe the diagram / chart, including axis labels, legend entries, and any embedded text.
DenseTable A densely formatted or complex table that classical extraction garbles. VLM prompt: extract the table as GitHub-Flavoured Markdown.
ComplexLayout A region whose layout the classical pipeline cannot handle (multi-column insets, heavily annotated forms, mixed text+diagram). VLM prompt: extract all text and structure as markdown, preserving reading order.
Caption A standalone image to be captioned (not extracted as figure markdown). VLM prompt: produce a single-sentence alt-text-style caption suitable for accessibility tooling and downstream indexing. Used by the captioning post-processor to populate ExtractedImage::caption.

Semantic kind of a relationship between document elements.

Variant Wire value Description
FootnoteReference footnote_reference Footnote marker -> footnote definition.
CitationReference citation_reference Citation marker -> bibliography entry.
InternalLink internal_link Internal anchor link (#id) -> target heading/element.
Caption caption Caption paragraph -> figure/table it describes.
Label label Label -> labeled element (HTML <label for>, LaTeX \label{}).
TocEntry toc_entry TOC entry -> target section.
CrossReference cross_reference Cross-reference (LaTeX \ref{}, DOCX cross-reference field).

Selects how a local ONNX reranker’s raw output tensor is turned into a score.

  • RerankerHead::CrossEncoder — classic single-logit cross-encoder head: the model emits [batch, 1] (or [batch]) logits; the caller applies sigmoid to get a [0, 1] score. This is the original, unchanged path.

  • RerankerHead::Qwen3Generative — Qwen3 generative-reranker head: the model emits [batch, seq, vocab] logits; the score is P("yes") read from the last token’s logits over the “yes”/“no” vocabulary entries, via a softmax over those two logits. Already a [0, 1] probability — no sigmoid is applied.

Since v5.0.

Variant Wire value Description
CrossEncoder cross_encoder Single-logit cross-encoder head (sigmoid applied by the caller).
Qwen3Generative qwen3_generative Qwen3 generative-reranker head (softmax over yes/no token logits).

Reranker model types supported by Xberg.

Since v5.0.

Variant Wire value Description
Preset preset Use a preset cross-encoder model (recommended). — Fields: name: String
Custom custom Use a custom ONNX cross-encoder from HuggingFace. — Fields: model_id: String, model_file: String, additional_files: Vec<String>, max_length: i64, head: RerankerHead
Llm llm Provider-hosted reranker via liter-llm (e.g. Cohere, Jina, Voyage). The model in the nested LlmConfig must be a rerank-capable model ID (e.g. "cohere/rerank-english-v3.0"). — Fields: llm: LlmConfig
Plugin plugin In-process reranker registered via the plugin system. The caller registers a RerankerBackend once (e.g. a wrapper around a sentence-transformers cross-encoder or a provider client), then references it by name in config. Xberg calls back into the registered backend — no HuggingFace download, no ONNX Runtime requirement. When this variant is selected, only max_rerank_duration_secs applies. Model-loading fields (batch_size, cache_dir, show_download_progress, acceleration) are ignored — the host owns the model lifecycle, so there is no download to report progress for. See register_reranker_backend. — Fields: name: String

Result-shape selection for extraction results.

Distinct from OutputFormat (which controls rendering — Plain, Markdown, HTML, etc.). ResultFormat controls the shape of the result: a unified content blob vs. an element-based decomposition.

Variant Wire value Description
Extractive extractive Pure-Rust extractive summary (TextRank over the chunk graph). Deterministic, fast, no external service required.
Abstractive abstractive Abstractive summary produced by liter-llm. Requires liter-llm feature and a configured LlmConfig. Token usage is captured in ExtractedDocument::llm_usage.

Controls how markdown tables are handled when they exceed the chunk size limit.

Only applies when chunker_type is Markdown.

  • Split - Default behavior: tables are split at row boundaries like any other block element. Continuation chunks contain only data rows without the header, which can break downstream consumers that need column context.

  • RepeatHeader - Prepend the table header (header row + separator row) to every continuation chunk that contains data rows from the same table. Adds a small amount of duplicate text but ensures each chunk is self-contained for extraction, search, and LLM consumption.

Variant Wire value Description
Split split Split tables at row boundaries (default). Continuation chunks have no header.
RepeatHeader repeat_header Prepend the table header to every chunk that continues a split table.

Which table structure recognition model to use.

Controls the model used for table cell detection within layout-detected table regions. Wire format is snake_case in all serializers (JSON, TOML, YAML).

Variant Wire value Description
Tatr tatr TATR (Table Transformer) – default, 30MB, DETR-based row/column detection.
SlanetWired slanet_wired SLANeXT wired variant – 365MB, optimized for bordered tables.
SlanetWireless slanet_wireless SLANeXT wireless variant – 365MB, optimized for borderless tables.
SlanetPlus slanet_plus SLANet-plus – 7.78MB, lightweight general-purpose.
SlanetAuto slanet_auto Classifier-routed SLANeXT: auto-select wired/wireless per table. Uses PP-LCNet classifier (6.78MB) + both SLANeXT variants (730MB total).
Disabled disabled Disable table structure model inference entirely; use heuristic path only.

How to resolve overlapping native vs layout (TATR/SLANeXT) tables.

When both native oxide detection and the layout table model produce a table for the same page region, one must be dropped. This controls which one wins. Wire format is snake_case in all serializers (JSON, TOML, YAML).

Variant Wire value Description
Content content Keep whichever table carries more content (cell count + markdown length). This is the historical default. TATR/SLANeXT tables usually recognize more cells and therefore win, which maximizes table-structure F1 but can lower text F1 when the recognized cell reflow diverges from the source reading order.
Native native Prefer the native oxide table when it overlaps a layout table. Native tables preserve the source reading order, which scores higher on text F1 for documents where the layout model’s cell reflow diverges from the ground truth.
Layout layout Prefer the layout (TATR/SLANeXT) table when it overlaps a native table.

Text direction enumeration for HTML documents.

Variant Wire value Description
LeftToRight ltr Left-to-right text direction

Semantic classification of an extracted URI.

Variant Wire value Description
Hyperlink hyperlink A clickable hyperlink (web URL, file link).
Image image An image or media resource reference.
Anchor anchor An internal anchor or cross-reference target.
Citation citation A citation or bibliographic reference (DOI, academic ref).
Reference reference A general reference (e.g. \ref{} in LaTeX, :ref: in RST).
Email email An email address (mailto: link or bare email).

URL encoding strategy for link and image destinations.

Controls how special characters in URL destinations are handled when they require escaping to produce valid Markdown.

The Angle variant (default) wraps the destination in angle brackets: [text](<url with spaces>). This is the CommonMark-specified escape hatch but breaks when the URL itself contains >.

The Percent variant percent-encodes every character that is not an RFC 3986 unreserved character or /, producing a destination safe for all Markdown parsers: [text](url%20with%20spaces).

Variant Description
Angle Wrap destinations that contain spaces or newlines in angle brackets. Default.
Percent Percent-encode all characters that are not RFC 3986 unreserved or /.

URL extraction mode.

Variant Wire value Description
Auto auto Classify HTTP(S) resources after fetch.
Document document Treat the URI as a single remote document/page.
Crawl crawl Crawl from the seed URI and extract discovered pages/documents.

Policy controlling when VLM (Vision Language Model) OCR is used as a fallback.

This knob is syntactic sugar over the explicit OcrPipelineConfig stage ordering. When vlm_fallback is set and pipeline is None, an equivalent pipeline is synthesised at extraction time:

  • VlmFallbackPolicy::Disabled — no synthesis; single-backend mode (default).

  • VlmFallbackPolicy::OnLowQuality — tries the classical backend first; if the result scores below quality_threshold, tries VLM.

  • VlmFallbackPolicy::Always — skips the classical backend and sends every page to the VLM.

When OcrConfig::pipeline is explicitly set, vlm_fallback is ignored — the explicit pipeline takes precedence.

Errors:

Both OnLowQuality and Always require OcrConfig::vlm_config to be Some. Constructing an OcrConfig with one of these policies but no vlm_config is detected by OcrConfig::validate and will surface as a Validation error at extraction time, not a panic.

Variant Wire value Description
Disabled disabled No VLM fallback (default). Behaves identically to the pre-policy single-backend mode.
OnLowQuality on_low_quality Try the classical OCR backend first. If the quality score is below quality_threshold, send the page to the VLM. quality_threshold is in the \[0.0, 1.0\] range produced by calculate_quality_score. A value of 0.5 is a reasonable starting point; calibrate with the Stage 0 benchmark harness. — Fields: quality_threshold: f64
Always always Skip the classical OCR backend entirely. Every page is sent to the VLM.

Supported Whisper model sizes.

These map to published ONNX exports on Hugging Face (onnx-community or similar orgs). The actual filenames and repos are resolved inside the transcription engine.

Variant Wire value Description
Tiny tiny Smallest, fastest, lowest quality. Good default for development and CI.
Base base Reasonable quality/speed tradeoff.
Small small Better accuracy with higher memory and cache use.
Medium medium High quality; slower and more memory-intensive.
LargeV3 large_v3 Best quality (large-v3). Use only when latency and memory use are acceptable.

Whitespace handling strategy during conversion.

Determines how sequences of whitespace characters (spaces, tabs, newlines) are processed.
