* fix: shorten MCP server name to prevent tool name length errors (#358)
Root cause: Claude Code prefixes MCP tool names with
`mcp__plugin_{plugin-name}_{server-name}__` which was 43 chars
for `mcp__plugin_claude-mem_claude-mem-search__`. Combined with
`progressive_description` (22 chars) this exceeded the 64 char limit.
Changes:
- Shortened MCP server name from 'claude-mem-search' to 'mem-search'
(saves 8 chars, new prefix is 35 chars)
- Renamed `progressive_description` tool to `help` (saves 18 chars)
- Updated SKILL.md to reference new `help` tool name
- Updated internal Server constructor name for consistency
All tool names now safely under 64 char limit:
- Longest is now `get_batch_observations` at 56 chars total
- `help` is only 39 chars total

* refactor: rename get_batch_observations to get_observations
The plural form naturally implies multiple items can be fetched,
following WordPress conventions. Simpler and clearer naming.
Also saves 6 additional characters for MCP tool name length.

This is a backup of all work done by the 3 Phase 1 agents:
Agent A - Command Injection Fix (Issue #354):
- Fixed command injection in BranchManager.ts
- Fixed unnecessary shell usage in bun-path.ts
- Added comprehensive security test suite
- Created SECURITY.md and SECURITY_AUDIT_REPORT.md
Agent B - Observation Persistence Fix (Issue #353):
- Added PendingMessageStore from PR #335
- Integrated persistent queue into SessionManager
- Modified SDKAgent to mark messages complete
- Updated SessionStore with pending_messages migration
- Updated worker-types.ts with new interfaces
Agent C - Batch Endpoint Verification (Issue #348):
- Created batch-observations.test.ts
- Updated worker-service.mdx documentation
Also includes:
- Documentation context files (biomimetic, windows struggles)
- Build artifacts from agent testing
This work will be re-evaluated after v7.3.0 release.
* feat: Add batch fetching for observations and update documentation
- Implemented a new endpoint for fetching multiple observations by IDs in a single request.
- Updated the DataRoutes to include a POST /api/observations/batch endpoint.
- Enhanced SKILL.md documentation to reflect changes in the search process and batch fetching capabilities.
- Increased the default limit for search results from 5 to 40 for better usability.
* feat!: Fix timeline parameter passing with SearchManager alignment
BREAKING CHANGE: Timeline MCP tools now use standardized parameter names
- anchor_id → anchor
- before → depth_before
- after → depth_after
- obs_type → type (timeline tool only)
Fixes timeline endpoint failures caused by parameter name mismatch between
MCP layer and SearchManager. Adds new SessionStore methods for fetching
prompts and session summaries by ID.

* feat: unify timeline formatting across search and context services
Extract shared timeline formatting utilities into reusable module to align
MCP search output format with context-generator's date/file-grouped format.
Changes:
- Create src/shared/timeline-formatting.ts with reusable utilities
(parseJsonArray, formatDateTime, formatTime, formatDate, toRelativePath,
extractFirstFile, groupByDate)
- Refactor context-generator.ts to use shared utilities
- Update SearchManager.search() to use date/file grouping
- Add search-specific row formatters to FormattingService
- Fix timeline methods to extract actual file paths from metadata
instead of hardcoding 'General'
- Remove Work column from search output (kept in context output)
Result: Consistent date/file-grouped markdown formatting across both
systems while maintaining their different column requirements.

* Refactor session summary rendering to remove links
- Removed link generation for session summaries in context generation and search manager.
- Updated output formatting to exclude links while maintaining the session summary structure.
- Adjusted related components in TimelineService to ensure consistency across the application.
* fix: move skillPath declaration outside try block to fix scoping bug
The skillPath variable was declared inside the try block but referenced
in the catch block for error logging. Since const is block-scoped, this
would cause a ReferenceError when the error handler executes.
Moved skillPath declaration before the try block so it's accessible in
both try and catch scopes.
