What changed

The Nedi stylesheet and its seven script dependencies moved out of the site-wide
stylesheets/scripts arrays in docusaurus.config.js and into an imperative loader,
src/components/Nedi/assets.js, that runs when the Ask Nedi component mounts.

src/components/Nedi/index.js is imported only by docs/ask-nedi.mdx, so the loader is in that
route's chunk and no other page requests these assets.

Why

Every page on learn.netdata.cloud downloaded the full Nedi dependency set, even though only
/docs/ask-nedi can use it. The stylesheet is a render-blocking cross-origin <link> in <head>
on every page.

Measured with curl against the production URLs on 2026-08-19 (Accept-Encoding: br for
transfer, Accept-Encoding: identity for uncompressed):

Asset Transfer (br) Uncompressed
markdown-it@15.0.0 (jsDelivr) 47,445 114,128
mermaid@11.16.1 (jsDelivr) 929,386 3,566,058
@viz-js/viz@3.29.0 (jsDelivr) 480,821 1,326,330
turndown@7.2.4 (jsDelivr) 7,657 26,659
@guyplusplus/turndown-plugin-gfm@1.0.7 (jsDelivr) 1,632 5,171
ai-agent-public.js?v=19 5,455 23,712
ai-agent-ui.js?v=19 22,109 89,588
ai-agent-ui.css?v=19 (render-blocking) 5,401 25,204
Total removed from every non-Ask-Nedi page 1,499,906 5,176,850

mermaid@11.16.1 was additionally redundant: @docusaurus/theme-mermaid already lazy-loads the
same version from the site bundle for pages that contain a diagram, so pages with diagrams were
fetching mermaid twice from two different origins.

Mechanism on the Ask Nedi page

loadNediAssets() injects, in this order:

  1. the ai-agent-ui.css <link rel="stylesheet">;
  2. markdown-it, mermaid, viz, turndown, turndown-plugin-gfm, ai-agent-public.js,
    ai-agent-ui.js as <script> elements with script.async = false.

Dynamically inserted scripts are async by default. Setting async = false puts them on the
in-order list, which the embed needs: ai-agent-ui.js waits up to 5 s for window.markdownit
before giving up on Markdown rendering.

Version-pinned jsDelivr URLs carry integrity (sha384) and crossorigin="anonymous". The
endpoint's own bundles are redeployed in place behind cache-control: public, max-age=14400, so a
pinned hash there would reject the asset after the next endpoint release; they are loaded without
integrity, matching how the product dashboard loads the same embed.

The component polls every 150 ms for window.AiAgentChatUI plus a compatible window.markdownit,
and shows:

  • "Loading Ask Nedi..." while waiting;
  • "Ask Nedi could not be loaded." with a Retry button if any asset fires error, if the
    dependencies are still unusable after 15 s, or if the embed constructor throws.

Retry removes the injected elements and re-injects them. Injection is guarded so repeated mounts
(SPA navigation back to the page) do not duplicate the tags.

The embed source identifier (window.AI_AGENT_UI_SOURCE = 'learn') is now set immediately before
injection instead of at module evaluation, so it is always in place before ai-agent-ui.js runs.

Unchanged

  • Cloudflare beacon and Reo scripts entries.
  • @docusaurus/theme-mermaid and its per-page mermaid lazy-loading.
  • Font preloads in stylesheets.
  • Embed configuration: agentId, theme sync with the Docusaurus color mode, ?q=/?question= URL
    params, PostHog nedi_question capture, persistent container across SPA navigation, scroll
    restore.

Verification

npm run build:netlify (Node 22.15.1) passes on this branch, including the rendered-title,
functional-heading, redirect-graph, rendered-link, rendered-indexability, Cloudflare-beacon and
site-build-gate checks ("findings": [], "regressions": []).

Static output, same 1,984 HTML files before and after:

Check master (dcc2885) this branch
HTML files referencing cdn.jsdelivr.net 1,982 0
HTML files referencing nedi.netdata.cloud 1,982 0
HTML files with the Cloudflare beacon 1,982 1,982
HTML files with the Reo tag 1,982 1,982
du -sb build 484,714,439 483,249,206

The 1,465,233-byte reduction is head markup only (~739 bytes per page); the transfer saving is the
1.5 MB of assets those tags used to request. build/docs/ask-nedi/index.html still contains the
Loading Ask Nedi... BrowserOnly fallback, and the endpoint URLs now appear in exactly one
runtime route chunk that no HTML file preloads.

Runtime check against the production build served locally:

  • /docs/security-and-privacy-design/netdata-agent/ (a page with a mermaid diagram):
    zero cdn.jsdelivr.net and zero nedi.netdata.cloud resource entries;
    window.AiAgentChatUI, window.markdownit, window.Viz and window.TurndownService all
    undefined; the diagram still renders — one .docusaurus-mermaid-container containing an SVG,
    produced by theme-mermaid from the site bundle. (docusaurus-mermaid-container never appears
    in static HTML on either branch: theme-mermaid renders null during SSG.)
  • /docs/ask-nedi/: all eight elements injected in order with async=false, integrity and
    crossorigin=anonymous present on the five jsDelivr scripts and absent on the three endpoint
    assets; AiAgentChatUI, markdownit, mermaid, Viz, TurndownService and
    TurndownPluginGfmService all defined; window.AI_AGENT_UI_SOURCE === 'learn'; the embed
    mounted and reached its API; no status element left on screen. The only console errors are the
    Cloudflare RUM beacon's CORS failures, which are expected when serving from localhost.

Tests: yarn test:run — 418 passing across 29 files, including
src/components/Nedi/assets.test.js (injection order, async=false, integrity/crossorigin per
origin, single injection, skip when already loaded, error flag, reload) and
src/components/Nedi/index.test.js (loading state, readiness resolution, 15 s timeout,
asset-error failure, retry, embed-constructor failure, theme sync, scroll save/restore, embed
reuse across remounts). assets.js and index.js are both at 100% statement, branch, function
and line coverage.

On the deploy preview:

  • /docs/ask-nedi — ask a question that returns a mermaid diagram and a DOT/Graphviz diagram, and
    use copy-as-markdown on the answer. These exercise mermaid, @viz-js/viz, turndown and the
    GFM plugin respectively.
  • any normal docs page — the Network panel shows no cdn.jsdelivr.net or nedi.netdata.cloud
    requests.
  • / — the 301 still lands on a working Ask Nedi page.

Trade-off

The first visit to Ask Nedi now pays a download that used to be warm in the HTTP cache from any
previously visited docs page. Since / redirects to Ask Nedi, that first visit is common. The
loading state covers the wait, and every other page on the site is 1.5 MB lighter.

Follow-up

The Nedi dependency-bump runbook lives in the embed's own repository and currently instructs
editors to update docusaurus.config.js. It needs to point at
src/components/Nedi/assets.js instead, and to note that jsDelivr version bumps also require a new
sha384 hash (curl -s <url> | openssl dgst -sha384 -binary | openssl base64 -A).


Summary by cubic

Scopes Nedi UI and CDN assets to Ask Nedi and declares them server‑side for that route. Other pages no longer download ~1.5 MB of unused assets; direct Ask Nedi loads start requests from head, while client-side entries still inject at runtime.

  • Removes site-wide Nedi tags from docusaurus.config.js; src/theme/Root/index.js declares <link>/<script> only when rendering /docs/ask-nedi, and mirrors those tags on the client to avoid re-execution at hydration.
  • src/components/Nedi/assets.js injects CSS first, then scripts with async = false on client-side entries; sets window.AI_AGENT_UI_SOURCE = 'learn'.
  • Adds SRI (sha384) and crossorigin="anonymous" to pinned jsDelivr scripts; endpoint bundles load without integrity to avoid false rejects on in-place redeploys.
  • Waits for window.AiAgentChatUI and a compatible markdown-it; times out after 15 s or on script error and shows Retry. Retry keeps a usable set, re-injects only after failures, and removes a stale container if the embed constructor throws.
  • Eliminates duplicate mermaid fetch on diagram pages; @docusaurus/theme-mermaid continues to lazy-load from the site bundle.
  • Preserves the persistent container across SPA navigation, syncs theme, saves/restores scroll, and captures nedi_question events; tests cover route-scoped head tags, loading, failures, retries, and constructor errors.

Rollout

  • Confirm non-Ask-Nedi pages make no cdn.jsdelivr.net or nedi.netdata.cloud requests; on /docs/ask-nedi, verify head-declared assets on direct loads, ordered execution, and that Retry recovers asset and constructor failures.
  • When bumping dependencies, update src/components/Nedi/assets.js and refresh SRI hashes for jsDelivr URLs; keep route-scoped tags in src/theme/Root/index.js aligned.

Written for commit 3296f4d. Summary will update on new commits.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features

    • Added route-scoped loading of Nedi chat assets.
    • Added reliable loading, retry support, and status feedback when the chat is delayed or unavailable.
    • Preserved chat sizing, focus, scrolling, theme synchronization, and analytics behavior.
  • Bug Fixes

    • Prevented duplicate asset loading and improved recovery after failures.
    • Cleaned up chat containers when startup fails.
  • Tests

    • Added comprehensive coverage for route detection, asset loading, retries, failures, startup, and chat interactions.

The Nedi stylesheet and its seven script dependencies were declared in the
site-wide `stylesheets`/`scripts` head, so every page on learn downloaded
about 1.5 MB compressed (5.15 MB uncompressed) of JavaScript plus a
render-blocking cross-origin stylesheet that only /docs/ask-nedi uses.

src/components/Nedi/assets.js now injects them imperatively when the Ask
Nedi component mounts: the stylesheet link first, then the scripts in
declaration order with `async = false` so markdown-it is evaluated before
the embed that waits for it. Version-pinned jsDelivr URLs carry Subresource
Integrity hashes and `crossorigin=anonymous`; the endpoint's own bundles are
redeployed in place behind a four-hour cache, so pinning a hash there would
reject the asset after the next endpoint release.

The component polls for `window.AiAgentChatUI` and markdown-it, gives up
after 15 seconds or on an asset error, and renders a retry control that
discards the failed injection and re-injects. It also sets the embed source
identifier before injection instead of at module evaluation.

theme-mermaid still lazy-loads mermaid 11.16.1 for pages with a diagram, and
the Cloudflare beacon and Reo entries are unchanged.

Consider role="alert" for the failure branch.

The failure message uses role="status" with aria-live="polite". A load failure is an error condition. Screen readers announce role="alert" with higher priority, which suits the failure branch. Keep role="status" for the loading branch.

Extend this test to assert that Retry recovers from an embed-initialization failure.

The test stops at the appearance of the Retry button. It does not click Retry and then assert that the embed mounts. That missing assertion is why the stale-container defect in src/components/Nedi/index.js lines 121-127 is not caught.

Add a follow-up step: replace window.AiAgentChatUI with the working installEmbed stub, click Retry, advance the timers, and assert that document.getElementById(PERSISTENT_ID) contains .ai-agent-wrapper.

Two states could survive a failed load and make Retry a no-op or worse.

`getOrCreateNedi` attached the container to the document before starting the
embed, so a constructor that threw left a container carrying the persistent id
and no instance. The next attempt matched that container on its early return,
skipped construction, reported success and rendered an empty embed with no
working theme sync. The container is now removed before the error propagates.

`reloadNediAssets` removed every injected element unconditionally, then
delegated to `loadNediAssets`, which returns early when the dependencies are
already usable. When the scripts had loaded but the embed itself failed to
start, Retry therefore removed the stylesheet and injected nothing, leaving an
unstyled embed. Reload now keeps a usable set and only clears the failure flag;
removing a script element does not undo its side effects, so re-requesting one
that already executed has no purpose.

Both paths are covered by tests.

Both actionable findings are fixed in 3033dcb and answered in their threads.

On the nitpick about colorModeRef.current = colorMode in the render body: the observation about React 19 replaying or discarding render work is correct in general, but it is benign here. The ref only supplies the theme passed to the embed constructor on mount, and the theme-sync effect runs on mount with the committed colorMode, so any value written by a render that never commits is overwritten before it can be observed. Moving the write into an effect would add an ordering dependency between two effects for no behavioral gain, so I left it as is. It also matches how the same embed is mounted in the product dashboard.

Verified on the deploy preview:

  • /docs/security-and-privacy-design/netdata-agent/: zero cdn.jsdelivr.net and zero nedi.netdata.cloud resource entries; AiAgentChatUI, markdownit, Viz, TurndownService all undefined; the mermaid diagram still renders from the site bundle.
  • /docs/ask-nedi/: all eight assets injected in order, Subresource Integrity accepted on the five jsDelivr scripts across origins, endpoint stylesheet applied, AiAgentChatUI, markdownit, mermaid, Viz, TurndownService and TurndownPluginGfmService all defined, embed mounted and reaching its API.
  • / still 301s to /docs/ask-nedi.

  • reloadNediAssets() retains usable assets and clears loadFailed.
  • getOrCreateNedi() removes the partial container when embed construction fails.
  • The new tests cover both recovery paths.

The Ask Nedi component is only rendered by docs/ask-nedi.mdx inside BrowserOnly. The loader has no browser-global access during module evaluation. git diff --check also reports no whitespace errors.

Your explanation for retaining colorModeRef.current = colorMode is valid for this mount and theme-sync lifecycle.

Converted to draft pending one change.

A throttled pre-merge probe (Pixel 5 emulation, 4x CPU, Slow-4G-like network, cold cache, N=3 per page, analytics endpoints blocked, preview vs production) confirms the intended effect on normal docs pages: jsDelivr and nedi.netdata.cloud requests 8 → 0 (−1.47 MiB per page), load event ~12.9 s → ~4.7 s, FCP ~400–500 ms earlier. Main-thread long-task totals are unchanged on docs pages (the removed libraries accounted for only ~60–90 ms of script time per load), so this is a bandwidth and load-completion improvement rather than an interaction-latency one.

On /docs/ask-nedi the assets now start after hydration (~4.8 s) instead of from <head> (~0.6 s), and the Nedi UI's largest-contentful-paint lands ~3.7 s later under that throttling (median 13.4 s vs 9.7 s), although FCP and load complete earlier. Because / redirects to this page and it receives a large share of landings, that trade needs to be removed before merge: the route-scoped assets should be emitted server-side for the Ask Nedi route (same head-start as today) while staying absent from every other page. An update to this PR will follow.

Injecting the embed's stylesheet and scripts from the component moved their
request start from <head> to after hydration. On a throttled cold load of
/docs/ask-nedi that delayed the first asset request from ~0.6 s to ~4.8 s and
the embed's largest-contentful-paint by ~3.7 s. That route receives a large
share of landings because / redirects to it.

src/theme/Root/index.js declares the eight tags through the head manager when
the document is rendered for that route, so the browser requests them from
<head> again. Every other page still renders none of them.

The same tags are declared on the client for a document that was server-rendered
for the route. react-helmet-async keeps an existing tag only when the one it
builds is isEqualNode-equal to it and removes every unmatched tag it owns, so a
client that declared nothing would drop the stylesheet and re-execute all seven
scripts at hydration. Attributes are declared as the values setAttribute
produces, and the HTML minifier preserves empty attribute values, so the tags
match: a direct load requests each asset exactly once, and navigating away and
back does not re-request any of them because Root is mounted for the whole
session.

A client-side entry into the route has no server-rendered tags and declares
none, so the runtime loader injects them there. The loader skips an asset the
document already declares, and a retry re-requests every asset, including one a
server-rendered tag failed to deliver.

Pushed 3296f4d: the Ask Nedi route emits its assets server-side again, every other page stays clean.

What changed

src/theme/Root/index.js declares the eight tags through the head manager when the document is rendered for /docs/ask-nedi (trailing-slash form included). It also declares the same tags on the client for a document that was server-rendered for that route: react-helmet-async keeps an existing tag only when the element it builds is isEqualNode-equal to it, and removes every unmatched tag it owns, so a client that declared nothing would drop the stylesheet and re-execute all seven scripts at hydration. Attributes are declared as the values setAttribute produces (async: ""), and both HTML minifiers Docusaurus can use keep removeEmptyAttributes off, so the boolean attribute survives either way and the tags match. Root is mounted once per document and remembers the rendered pathname, so the declaration is not torn down when the visitor leaves the route and not re-added when they return.

src/components/Nedi/assets.js remains the retry and orchestration layer and is now idempotent against declared tags: it skips any asset the document already declares, and a retry re-requests every asset, including one a server-rendered tag failed to deliver. A client-side entry into the route declares nothing server-side, so the loader injects there.

Scripts keep async on the server-rendered path, matching the previous global declaration, so the embed script still executes as soon as it arrives instead of queueing behind the 929 KB mermaid bundle.

Exactly-once evidence (production build served locally, direct load of /docs/ask-nedi)

  • 8 asset requests total, one per asset — markdown-it, mermaid, viz, turndown, turndown-plugin-gfm, ai-agent-public.js, ai-agent-ui.js, ai-agent-ui.css all at count 1.
  • All 8 requests start at 6 ms, against domInteractive 1,030 ms and DOMContentLoaded 1,659 ms — the head start is back.
  • All 8 head tags still carry data-rh, so the server-rendered tags were kept, not removed and replaced.
  • SPA away and back: still 8 tags, still one request per asset.
  • SPA entry from /docs/welcome-to-netdata: 0 assets and 0 tags on entry, then the loader injects all 8 with data-rh absent, one request each.
  • Docs page with a diagram: no jsDelivr or endpoint requests, embed globals undefined, mermaid diagram still rendered from the site bundle.
  • Embed constructor failing once: Retry shown, no stale container, Retry recovers, nothing re-requested.

Build assertions: grep -rl for cdn.jsdelivr.net and for nedi.netdata.cloud across the 1,984 built HTML files each return build/docs/ask-nedi/index.html and nothing else. Beacon and Reo stay at 1,982 files. npm run build:netlify passes with "findings": [] and "regressions": [].

Tests: 435 passing across 30 files. assets.js, Nedi/index.js and Root/index.js are each at 100% coverage.

Left as draft for your re-probe.

Re-probe of the updated preview (same rig as before: Pixel 5 emulation, 4x CPU, Slow-4G, cold cache, N=3 per page per origin, analytics endpoints blocked):

  • /docs/ask-nedi: the 8 asset tags are server-rendered in <head>; the first asset request starts at ~630–840 ms, before DOM-interactive, matching production discovery timing (the client-injection build started at ~4.8 s, after the load event). Settled LCP is now within +348 ms of production (previously +3.7 s), same LCP element. Exactly one request per asset in every run — the client loader does not duplicate the server-rendered tags.
  • /docs/netdata-agent (control): still zero jsDelivr/nedi requests, −1.47 MiB transfer, load event ~5.0 s vs ~13.2 s on production. Unchanged by this commit.

Mechanism evidence under lab throttling, not a field verdict. Marking the PR ready for review.
