* refactor: Clean up hook-response and new-hook files
- Removed 'PreCompact' hook type and associated logic from hook-response.ts for improved type safety.
- Deleted extensive architecture comments in new-hook.ts to streamline code readability.
- Simplified debug logging in new-hook.ts to reduce verbosity.
- Enhanced ensureWorkerRunning function in worker-utils.ts with a final health check before throwing errors.
- Added a new documentation file outlining the hooks cleanup process and future improvements.
* Refactor cleanup and user message hooks
- Updated cleanup-hook.js to improve error handling and remove unnecessary input checks.
- Simplified user-message-hook.js by removing time-sensitive announcements and streamlining output.
- Enhanced logging functionality in both hooks for better debugging and clarity.
* Refactor error handling in hooks to use centralized error handler
- Introduced `handleWorkerError` function in `src/shared/hook-error-handler.ts` to manage worker-related errors.
- Updated `context-hook.ts`, `new-hook.ts`, `save-hook.ts`, and `summary-hook.ts` to utilize the new error handler, simplifying error management and improving code readability.
- Removed repetitive error handling logic from individual hooks, ensuring consistent user-friendly messages for connection issues.
* Refactor user-message and summary hooks to utilize shared transcript parser; introduce hook exit codes
- Moved user message extraction logic to a new shared module `transcript-parser.ts` for better code reuse.
- Updated `summary-hook.ts` to use the new `extractLastMessage` function for retrieving user and assistant messages.
- Replaced direct exit code usage in `user-message-hook.ts` with constants from `hook-constants.ts` for improved readability and maintainability.
- Added `HOOK_EXIT_CODES` to `hook-constants.ts` to standardize exit codes across hooks.
* Refactor hook input interfaces to enforce required fields
- Updated `SessionStartInput`, `UserPromptSubmitInput`, `PostToolUseInput`, and `StopInput` interfaces to require `session_id`, `transcript_path`, and `cwd` fields, ensuring better type safety and clarity in hook inputs.
- Removed optional index signatures from these interfaces to prevent unintended properties and improve code maintainability.
- Adjusted related hook implementations to align with the new interface definitions.
* Refactor save-hook to remove tool skipping logic; enhance summary-hook to handle spinner stopping with error logging; update SessionRoutes to load skip tools from settings; add CLAUDE_MEM_SKIP_TOOLS to SettingsDefaultsManager for configurable tool exclusion.
* Document CLAUDE_MEM_SKIP_TOOLS setting in public docs
Added documentation for the new CLAUDE_MEM_SKIP_TOOLS configuration
setting in response to PR review feedback. Users can now discover and
customize which tools are excluded from observations.

**Problem:**
Worker service crashed on startup with:
TypeError: Cannot read properties of undefined (reading 'get')
at new Wd (.../worker-service.cjs:52:131469)
**Root Cause:**
Circular dependency between SettingsDefaultsManager and logger:
1. SettingsDefaultsManager imports logger
2. logger imports SettingsDefaultsManager
3. logger constructor calls SettingsDefaultsManager.get() at init time
4. When CommonJS resolves the cycle, SettingsDefaultsManager is undefined
**Solution:**
Break the circular dependency by making logger lazy-load its configuration:
- Change logger.level from initialized in constructor to lazy-loaded
- Add getLevel() method that loads on first access
- Update all level checks to use getLevel()
This allows SettingsDefaultsManager to import logger without triggering
the circular dependency, since logger no longer accesses SettingsDefaultsManager
during module initialization.

- Introduced PrivacyCheckValidator class to encapsulate logic for checking if user prompts are private.
- Updated SessionRoutes to utilize PrivacyCheckValidator for determining prompt privacy during observation and summarization operations.
- Removed duplicate privacy check logic from SessionRoutes, improving code maintainability and readability.
- Added SessionEventBroadcaster to handle broadcasting of session lifecycle events, consolidating SSE broadcasting and processing status updates.
- Refactored SessionRoutes to utilize SessionEventBroadcaster for broadcasting events related to new prompts, session starts, and completions.
- Created SessionCompletionHandler to centralize session completion logic, reducing duplication across multiple endpoints.
- Updated WorkerService to initialize SessionEventBroadcaster and pass it to SessionRoutes.
- Introduced SettingsDefaultsManager to centralize default settings and loading logic.
- Updated context-generator, SDKAgent, SettingsRoutes, and worker-utils to utilize the new manager for loading settings.
- Removed redundant code for reading settings from files and environment variables.
- Ensured fallback to default values when settings file is missing or invalid.

Extracted SQL query from handleSessionInit route handler into SessionStore.getLatestUserPrompt()
method to fix abstraction leak and improve type safety.
Changes:
- Added getLatestUserPrompt() method to SessionStore with proper return type
- Replaced raw SQL query in SessionRoutes with type-safe method call
- Removed direct database access through dbManager.getSessionStore().db
- Improved separation of concerns (data layer vs HTTP layer)
Benefits:
- Type safety: Explicit return type instead of 'as any' cast
- Maintainability: SQL query logic belongs in data layer
- Testability: Can test query logic independently from HTTP layer
- Consistency: Follows existing pattern of query methods in SessionStore
Phase 3 Complete: SQL abstraction leak fixed in session init endpoint.

Extracted duplicated generator auto-start logic (44 lines × 4 occurrences) into
single private method ensureGeneratorRunning() that accepts source parameter.
Benefits:
- Reduced code duplication from 72 lines to 24 lines (net -48 lines)
- Single source of truth for generator lifecycle management
- Improved maintainability - changes only needed in one place
- Better logging with parameterized source tracking
Phase 2 Complete: All 4 handler methods now use shared method:
- handleObservations (legacy endpoint)
- handleSummarize (legacy endpoint)
- handleObservationsByClaudeId (new endpoint)
- handleSummarizeByClaudeId (new endpoint)

- Introduced SearchManager to handle search operations directly instead of proxying to MCP server.
- Updated WorkerService to initialize SearchManager after database setup.
- Modified SearchRoutes to call SearchManager methods for search operations.
- Adjusted SearchManager to manage timeline and formatting services.
- Enhanced error handling and logging for search operations.
The /api/context/inject endpoint was using an incorrect relative import
path for context-generator.cjs. Since SearchRoutes is in
src/services/worker/http/routes/, the correct path to reach
src/services/context-generator.ts is ../../../context-generator.js
This fixes the session start context injection issue where the hook
would print correctly but no context would load in the session.

- DataRoutes: Data retrieval endpoints
- SearchRoutes: Search/MCP proxy operations
- SettingsRoutes: Settings and configuration
- ViewerRoutes: Health, UI, and SSE streaming
- Added comprehensive README documenting worker architecture
- Improved build script to handle worker service compilation
