AI Assistant Work-in-Progress Responses are Misleading

[anthonydb]

Describe the bug

After a few tries of the AI Assistant I noticed it repeating the same phrases while working, some of which seemed unrelated to what I asked it to do, such as Analyzing table statistics... and Vacuuming the catalog.... I wondered why is the AI vacuuming my catalog?

I see that these are actually random phrases from a list:

pgadmin4/web/pgadmin/tools/sqleditor/static/js/components/sections/NLQChatPanel.jsx

Line 143 in 08b0f6f

const THINKING_MESSAGES = [

It's fun when Claude Code uses phrases like Combobulating when it's thinking, and that same spirit seems good in this tool. But unless the AI is actually doing vacuuming or whatever, it probably shouldn't be in the messages ...

Perhaps I'm a literalist but these seem misleading to report unless they're actually being done:

  'Traversing the B-tree...',
  'Vacuuming the catalog...',
  'Analyzing table statistics...',
  'Optimizing the plan...',
  'Warming up the cache...',
  'Gathering the tuples...',
