Hi everyone,

I am Krishan from India and I have started contributing to the KnowledgeSpace AI Agent project as part of my GSoC 2026 preparation.

I worked on improving security by fixing an issue where sensitive backend configuration errors were exposed in the user interface.

This PR addresses the issue of sensitive backend configuration errors being expo…sed directly to the end-user in the chat UI. **Changes:** - Modified the exception handling in backend/agents.py -> handle_chat method. - Replaced the direct exception string return with a user-friendly generic error message. Closes #95

Issue: #95

Status: Approved

Additionally, I have updated the PR based on reviewer feedback by replacing print statements with logger.exception() for consistent logging.

I would really appreciate any feedback and guidance on further areas where I can contribute.

Looking forward to collaborating with the community.

Thanks,

Krishan
