LightRAG API	9621	✅ Running (v1.4.9.2)
WebUI	5173	✅ Running

Tests Requiring External Services (Not Run)

• E2E isolation tests - Require multi-tenant API mode
• API route unit tests - Have argparse import-time issues

---

Code Quality Checks

Check	Status
Python Compilation	✅ All files compile
Conflict Markers	✅ None found
Core Imports	✅ All working
API Imports	✅ Working (with sys.argv override)
Ruff Linting	⚠️ Minor whitespace warnings only

Key Changes Integrated from Upstream

New Features

• Langfuse observability integration
• Workspace isolation support for pipeline status
• Qdrant multi-tenancy refactor
• Include_chunk_content parameter for queries
• Enhanced rerank chunking with document-level aggregation

Improvements

• PostgreSQL retry mechanism with configurable backoff
• Pool close timeout configuration
• Default workspace support for backward compatibility
• JSON write optimization with surrogate sanitization

Bug Fixes

• Sync core modules for import compatibility
• Fix document_routes.py conflict markers
• Correct base.py abstract method definitions
• Fix test mock paths for reorganized modules

---

Known Issues (Non-blocking)

1. API Test Isolation: Tests importing API modules fail due to argparse parsing sys.argv at import time. This is a test harness issue, not a production code issue.

2. tkinter Dependency: graph_visualizer module requires tkinter which is unavailable on headless systems. Optional feature.

3. Deprecation Warnings: datetime.utcnow() deprecation in tenant models - cosmetic only.

Merge Instructions

# Ensure you're on main
git checkout main

# Pull latest main
git pull origin main

# Merge the integration branch
git merge premerge/integration-upstream --no-ff -m "Merge upstream integration (586 commits)"

# Push to remote
git push origin main

Alternative: Squash Merge (for cleaner history)

git checkout main
git merge --squash premerge/integration-upstream
git commit -m "feat: integrate upstream HKUDS/LightRAG changes (586 commits)"
git push origin main

---

Post-Merge Recommendations

1. Run Full E2E Suite with Ollama/OpenAI after merge
2. Update Documentation for new features (Langfuse, workspace isolation)
3. Tag Release after validation in production environment
4. Monitor for any regressions in production

---
