### What problem does this PR solve?
LLM/chat and search UIs render Markdown in several places (document
preview, floating chat widget, next-search, etc.). Plugin lists and
behavior were duplicated or inconsistent, and single newlines in model
output were not always rendered as visible line breaks, which hurts
readability for chat-style content.
This PR centralizes shared **remark/rehype** configuration (including
**`remark-breaks`** for newline handling) and wires the main Markdown
surfaces to use it, so behavior is consistent and easier to maintain.

# feat: Add Generic REST API Connector
## What problem does this PR solve?
RAGFlow supports many specific data source connectors (MySQL, Slack,
Google Drive, etc.), but there was no way to connect an arbitrary REST
API as a data source. Users with custom or third-party APIs had to write
a new connector class for each one.
This PR adds a **generic, configuration-driven REST API connector** that
lets users connect any REST API as a data source entirely through the UI
— no code changes needed per API.
---
## Features
### Core Connector (`common/data_source/rest_api_connector.py`)
- Implements `LoadConnector` and `PollConnector` interfaces for full and
incremental sync
- **Configurable authentication:** None, API Key (custom header), Bearer
Token, Basic Auth
- **Pluggable pagination:** Page-based, Offset-based, Cursor-based, or
None
- Smart page-size inference from user's query parameters to avoid
duplicate/conflicting params
- Configurable request delay between pages to prevent API rate limiting
- Auto-detection of the items array in JSON responses (`items`,
`results`, `data`, `records`, or first list found)
- **Advanced field mapping** with dot-notation (`country.name`), array
wildcards (`newsType[*].name`), type hints, and default values
- Optional content template rendering (`"Title: {title}\nBody: {body}"`)
- HTML stripping for content fields
- Stable document IDs via `hash128` from a configurable ID field or
auto-generated from item content
- Pydantic configuration schema with automatic coercion of UI string
inputs to dicts/lists
### Backend Registration (`rag/svr/sync_data_source.py`,
`common/constants.py`, `common/data_source/config.py`)
- `REST_API` sync class wired into RAGFlow's `func_factory`
- Full sync (`load_from_state`) and incremental polling (`poll_source`)
support
- Credentials and config passed from task to connector following
existing patterns (MySQL, SeaFile, etc.)
### Test Connection Endpoint (`api/apps/connector_app.py`)
- `POST /v1/connector/<id>/test` validates config schema,
authentication, and API connectivity without triggering a sync
- Clear error messages for auth failures vs. config issues
### Frontend UI (`web/src/pages/user-setting/data-source/constant/`)
- **Postman-style configuration:** Base URL, Query Parameters (key=value
per line), Auth, Content Fields, Metadata Fields, Pagination Type
- Auth-type-aware form: fields for API key header/value, Bearer token,
or Basic username/password appear only when relevant
- **Advanced Settings** toggle for: Custom Headers, Max Pages, Request
Delay, Poll Timestamp Field, Request Body (POST)
- Connector icon (SVG) and i18n strings (English)
- **"Test Connection"** button to validate before syncing
---
## Controls & Safety
- Configurable max pages safety cap (default: 1000, adjustable in UI)
- Configurable request delay between pages (default: 0.5s, adjustable in
UI)
- Auth errors (401/403) fail immediately without retries; transient
errors retry with exponential backoff
- Diagnostic logging: auth setup confirmation, request details on
failure, content field extraction status

## Summary
- **Collapsible thinking**: Replace `<section>` with `<details>` for
`<think>` content, so model thinking output is collapsed by default
(click to expand). Works for all models that output `<think>` tags
(Qwen3, DeepSeek, Gemini, Claude, etc.).
- **Fix double thinking tags**: When reasoning/deep research mode is
enabled in knowledge base chat, both the retrieval progress and model
thinking were wrapped in `<think>` tags, producing two "Thinking..."
blocks. Now retrieval progress uses a dedicated `<retrieving>` tag
rendered as a separate "Retrieving..." collapsible with a distinct green
accent.
### Before
- Thinking content displayed as flat gray-bordered `<section>`,
occupying significant screen space
- Deep research + model thinking both use `<think>` → two identical
"Thinking..." blocks
### After
- Thinking content collapsed by default in a `<details>` element, click
"Thinking..." to expand
- Deep research shows "Retrieving..." (green border), model thinking
shows "Thinking..." (gray border)
## Changes
**Backend (`api/db/services/dialog_service.py`)**
- Deep research callback: replace `start_to_think`/`end_to_think` marker
flags with direct `<retrieving>`/`</retrieving>` answer text
**Frontend**
- `web/src/utils/chat.ts`: `replaceThinkToSection()` now uses
`<details>` instead of `<section>`; add new
`replaceRetrievingToSection()`
- 4 tsx files: import and pipe `replaceRetrievingToSection`, whitelist
`details`, `summary`, `retrieving` in DOMPurify `ADD_TAGS`
- 4 less files: `section.think` → `details.think` with `<summary>`
styles; add `details.retrieving` with green accent; dark mode and RTL
variants
## Test plan
- [ ] Open a chat WITHOUT knowledge base, ask a question to a model with
thinking (e.g. Qwen3) → thinking content should be collapsed by default,
click "Thinking..." to expand
- [ ] Open a chat WITH knowledge base and reasoning enabled, ask a
question → "Retrieving..." (green) shows retrieval progress,
"Thinking..." (gray) shows model thinking, each independently
collapsible
- [ ] Verify dark mode renders correctly for both collapsible blocks
- [ ] Verify RTL layout renders correctly

### What problem does this PR solve?
This PR adds comprehensive **Right-to-Left (RTL) language support**,
primarily targeting Arabic and other RTL scripts (Hebrew, Persian, Urdu,
etc.).
Previously, RTL content had multiple rendering issues:
- Incorrect sentence splitting for Arabic punctuation in citation logic
- Misaligned text in chat messages and markdown components
- Improper positioning of blockquotes and “think” sections
- Incorrect table alignment
- Citation placement ambiguity in RTL prompts
- UI layout inconsistencies when mixing LTR and RTL text
This PR introduces backend and frontend improvements to properly detect,
render, and style RTL content while preserving existing LTR behavior.
#### Backend
- Updated sentence boundary regex in `rag/nlp/search.py` to include
Arabic punctuation:
- `،` (comma)
- `؛` (semicolon)
- `؟` (question mark)
- `۔` (Arabic full stop)
- Ensures citation insertion works correctly in RTL sentences.
- Updated citation prompt instructions to clarify citation placement
rules for RTL languages.
#### Frontend
- Introduced a new utility: `text-direction.ts`
- Detects text direction based on Unicode ranges.
- Supports Arabic, Hebrew, Syriac, Thaana, and related scripts.
- Provides `getDirAttribute()` for automatic `dir` assignment.
- Applied dynamic `dir` attributes across:
- Markdown rendering
- Chat messages
- Search results
- Tables
- Hover cards and reference popovers
- Added proper RTL styling in LESS:
- Text alignment adjustments
- Blockquote border flipping
- Section indentation correction
- Table direction switching
- Use of `<bdi>` for figure labels to prevent bidirectional conflicts
#### DevOps / Environment
- Added Windows backend launch script with retry handling.
- Updated dependency metadata.
- Adjusted development-only React debugging behavior.
