- Updated paths in troubleshooting documentation to reflect new settings file location.
- Modified diagnostics and reference files to read from ~/.claude-mem/settings.json.
- Introduced getWorkerPort utility for cleaner worker port retrieval.
- Enhanced ChromaSync and SDKAgent to load Python version and Claude path from settings.
- Updated SettingsRoutes to validate new settings: CLAUDE_MEM_LOG_LEVEL and CLAUDE_MEM_PYTHON_VERSION.
- Added early-settings module to load settings for logger and other early-stage modules.
- Adjusted logger to use early-loaded log level setting.
- Refactored paths to utilize early-loaded data directory setting.
The bundled hook scripts use `external: ['better-sqlite3']` during esbuild,
meaning the dependency must be resolved at runtime. When hooks run from the
cache directory (~/.claude/plugins/cache/thedotmack/claude-mem/X.X.X/),
they couldn't find better-sqlite3 because:
1. Cache directory had no package.json
2. smart-install.js was hardcoded to install in marketplace directory only
This fix:
- Adds plugin/package.json declaring runtime dependencies (better-sqlite3)
- Updates build-hooks.js to auto-generate plugin/package.json from main package.json
- Updates smart-install.js to detect execution context (cache vs marketplace)
and install dependencies in the correct location
The script now detects if it's running from cache (via path pattern matching)
and installs dependencies there, where the hooks actually execute.

This PR addresses issue #193 affecting Windows installations of claude-mem.
## Bug 1: Missing ecosystem.config.cjs in packaged plugin
**Problem**: The ecosystem.config.cjs file was not included in the plugin
package, causing PM2 to fail when trying to start the worker from cache.
**Fix**: Added `plugin/ecosystem.config.cjs` with correct path for packaged
structure (`./scripts/worker-service.cjs` instead of `./plugin/scripts/`).
## Bug 2: Incorrect MCP Server Path (src/services/worker-service.ts)
**Problem**: Path `__dirname, '..', '..', 'plugin', 'scripts', 'mcp-server.cjs'`
only worked in dev structure, failed in packaged plugin.
**Error produced**:
```
Error: Cannot find module 'C:\Users\...\claude-mem\plugin\scripts\mcp-server.cjs'
[ERROR] [SYSTEM] Background initialization failed MCP error -32000: Connection closed
```
**Fix**: Changed to `path.join(__dirname, 'mcp-server.cjs')` since mcp-server.cjs
is in the same directory as worker-service.cjs after bundling.
## Bug 3: Missing smart-install.js in plugin package
**Problem**: smart-install.js was referenced in hooks.json but not included
in the plugin/ directory for cache deployment.
**Fix**: Added `plugin/scripts/smart-install.js` that uses `createRequire()`
to resolve modules from MARKETPLACE_ROOT.
## Bug 4: hooks.json incorrect path
**Problem**: Referenced `/../scripts/smart-install.js` but CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT
points to the plugin/ directory.
**Fix**: Changed to `/scripts/smart-install.js`.
## Bug 5: Windows Worker Startup - Visible Console Windows
**Problem**: PM2 ignores windowsHide option on Windows, opening visible
console windows when starting the worker service.
**Fix**: Use PowerShell `Start-Process -WindowStyle Hidden` on Windows while
keeping PM2 for Unix systems (src/shared/worker-utils.ts).
## Additional Improvements
- Increased worker startup timeouts for Windows (500ms health check, 1000ms
wait between retries, 15 retries = 15s total vs previous 5s)
- Added `windowsHide: true` to root ecosystem.config.cjs for PM2
## Note on Assertion Failure
The Windows libuv assertion failure `!(handle->flags & UV_HANDLE_CLOSING)`
at `src\win\async.c:76` is a known upstream issue in Claude Code (Issue #7579),
triggered by fetch() calls on Windows. This is NOT caused by worker spawning
and cannot be fixed in claude-mem.
Tested on Windows 11 with Node.js v24.

* feat: Add dual-tag system for meta-observation control
Implements <private> and <claude-mem-context> tag stripping at hook layer
to give users fine-grained control over what gets persisted in observations
and enable future real-time context injection without recursive storage.
**Features:**
- stripMemoryTags() function in save-hook.ts
- Strips both <private> and <claude-mem-context> tags before sending to worker
- Always active (no configuration needed)
- Comprehensive test suite (19 tests, all passing)
- User documentation for <private> tag
- Technical architecture documentation
**Architecture:**
- Edge processing pattern (filter at hook, not worker)
- Defensive type handling with silentDebug
- Supports multiline, nested, and multiple tags
- Enables strategic orchestration for internal tools
**User-Facing:**
- <private> tag for manual privacy control (documented)
- Prevents sensitive data from persisting in observations
**Infrastructure:**
- <claude-mem-context> tag ready for real-time context feature
- Prevents recursive storage when context injection ships
**Files:**

* fix: Strip private tags from user prompts and skip memory ops for fully private prompts
Fixes critical privacy bug where <private> tags were not being stripped from
user prompts before storage in user_prompts table, making private content
searchable via mem-search.
Changes:
1. new-hook.ts: Skip memory operations for fully private prompts
- If cleaned prompt is empty after stripping tags, skip saveUserPrompt
- Skip worker init to avoid wasting resources on empty prompts
- Logs: "(fully private - skipped)"
2. save-hook.ts: Skip observations for fully private prompts
- Check if user prompt was entirely private before creating observations
- Respects user intent: fully private prompt = no observations at all
- Prevents "thoughts pop up" issue where private prompts create public observations
3. SessionStore.ts: Add getUserPrompt() method
- Retrieves prompt text by session_id and prompt_number
- Used by save-hook to check if prompt was private
4. Tests: Added 4 new tests for fully private prompt detection (16 total, all passing)
5. Docs: Updated private-tags.mdx to reflect correct behavior
- User prompts ARE now filtered before storage
- Private content never reaches database or search indices
Privacy Protection:
- Fully private prompts: No user_prompt saved, no worker init, no observations
- Partially private prompts: Tags stripped, content sanitized before storage
- Zero leaks: Private content never indexed or searchable

- Auto-trigger npm install when Node.js version changes
- Backward compatible with old plain-text version marker format
Layer 2: Native Module Verification
- Add verifyNativeModules() function to test better-sqlite3 loads correctly
- Verify after install completes to catch corrupted builds
- Retry with force flag if initial install verification fails
Layer 3: Graceful Failure
- Catch ERR_DLOPEN_FAILED in context-hook and delete version marker
- Exit cleanly to avoid error spam in Claude Code UI
- Auto-fix on next session start
Changes:
- scripts/smart-install.js: Add Node.js version tracking and verification
- src/hooks/context-hook.ts: Add graceful failure handling for native module errors
- tests/smart-install.test.js: Add tests for version marker format compatibility
- plugin/scripts/context-hook.js: Built output from TypeScript source
Fixes the issue where users see ERR_DLOPEN_FAILED errors after Node.js upgrades,
requiring manual npm install. Now automatically detects and fixes the issue.

**Problem:**
- Summaries created with empty project names even after database fix
- 13 summaries had empty project, couldn't appear in context-hook
- In-memory sessions cached stale empty project value
**Root Cause:**
SessionManager caches ActiveSession objects in memory. When reusing
an existing session, it never refreshed the project field from the
database. Even though createSDKSession() now updates the DB with the
correct project, the in-memory session.project remained empty, causing
summaries to be stored with empty project.
**Flow:**
1. Session created with empty project (cached in memory)
2. new-hook UPDATE fixes project in database
3. SessionManager reuses cached session (stale project="")
4. Summary stored with session.project (empty)
5. Context-hook can't find summary (WHERE project = 'claude-mem')
**Solution:**
When SessionManager.initializeSession() reuses an existing session,
refresh the project field from the database. This ensures summaries
and observations always use the latest project value.
**Impact:**
- Future summaries will have correct project name
- Backfilled 13 historical summaries with project='claude-mem'
- Context injection will now show recent summaries
- Both observations AND summaries fixed

**Problem:**
- Sessions created with empty project names couldn't be updated
- INSERT OR IGNORE skipped updates when session already existed
- Context-hook couldn't find observations (WHERE project = 'claude-mem')
- 364 observations had empty project names
**Root Cause:**
createSDKSession() used INSERT OR IGNORE for idempotency, but never
updated project/prompt fields when session already existed. If SAVE hook
created session first (with empty project), NEW hook couldn't fix it.
**Solution:**
When INSERT is ignored (session exists), UPDATE project and user_prompt
if we have non-empty values. This ensures project name gets set even
when session was created by SAVE hook or with incomplete data.
**Impact:**
