Alex Newman c0778bef00 docs: Align search documentation with hybrid ChromaDB architecture (#116)
* feat: Add discovery_tokens for ROI tracking in observations and session summaries

- Introduced `discovery_tokens` column in `observations` and `session_summaries` tables to track token costs associated with discovering and creating each observation and summary.
- Updated relevant services and hooks to calculate and display ROI metrics based on discovery tokens.
- Enhanced context economics reporting to include savings from reusing previous observations.
- Implemented migration to ensure the new column is added to existing tables.
- Adjusted data models and sync processes to accommodate the new `discovery_tokens` field.

* refactor: streamline context hook by removing unused functions and updating terminology

- Removed the estimateTokens and getObservations helper functions as they were not utilized.
- Updated the legend and output messages to replace "discovery" with "work" for clarity.
- Changed the emoji representation for different observation types to better reflect their purpose.
- Enhanced output formatting for improved readability and understanding of token usage.

* Refactor user-message-hook and context-hook for improved clarity and functionality

- Updated user-message-hook.js to enhance error messaging and improve variable naming for clarity.
- Modified context-hook.ts to include a new column key section, improved context index instructions, and added emoji icons for observation types.
- Adjusted footer messages in context-hook.ts to emphasize token savings and access to past research.
- Changed user-message-hook.ts to update the feedback and support message for clarity.

* fix: Critical ROI tracking fixes from PR review

Addresses critical findings from PR #111 review:

1. **Fixed incorrect discovery token calculation** (src/services/worker/SDKAgent.ts)
   - Changed from passing cumulative total to per-response delta
   - Now correctly tracks token cost for each observation/summary
   - Captures token state before/after response processing
   - Prevents all observations getting inflated cumulative values

2. **Fixed schema version mismatch** (src/services/sqlite/SessionStore.ts)
   - Changed ensureDiscoveryTokensColumn() from version 11 to version 7
   - Now matches migration007 definition in migrations.ts
   - Ensures consistent version tracking across migration system

These fixes ensure ROI metrics accurately reflect token costs.

* fix: Update search documentation to reflect hybrid ChromaDB architecture

The backend correctly implements ChromaDB-first semantic search with SQLite
temporal ordering and FTS5 fallback, but documentation incorrectly described
it as "FTS5 full-text search". This fix aligns all skill guides and tool
descriptions with the actual implementation.

Changes:
- Update SKILL.md to describe hybrid architecture with ChromaDB primary
- Update observations.md title and query parameter descriptions
- Update all three search tool descriptions in search-server.ts:
  * search_observations
  * search_sessions
  * search_user_prompts

All tools now correctly document:
- ChromaDB semantic search (primary ranking)
- 90-day recency filter
- SQLite temporal ordering
- FTS5 fallback (when ChromaDB unavailable)

Alex Newman 68290a9121 Performance improvements: Token reduction and enhanced summaries (#101)
* refactor: Reduce continuation prompt token usage by 95 lines

Removed redundant instructions from continuation prompt that were originally
added to mitigate a session continuity issue. That issue has since been
resolved, making these detailed instructions unnecessary on every continuation.

Changes:
- Reduced continuation prompt from ~106 lines to ~11 lines (~95 line reduction)
- Changed "User's Goal:" to "Next Prompt in Session:" (more accurate framing)
- Removed redundant WHAT TO RECORD, WHEN TO SKIP, and OUTPUT FORMAT sections
- Kept concise reminder: "Continue generating observations and progress summaries..."
- Initial prompt still contains all detailed instructions

Impact:
- Significant token savings on every continuation prompt
- Faster context injection with no loss of functionality
- Instructions remain comprehensive in initial prompt

Files modified:
- src/sdk/prompts.ts (buildContinuationPrompt function)
- plugin/scripts/worker-service.cjs (compiled output)

refactor: Remove PLAN-full-observation-display.md and PR_SUMMARY.md as they are no longer needed

chore: Delete SECURITY_SUMMARY.md since it is redundant after recent changes

fix: Update worker-service.cjs to streamline observation generation instructions

cleanup: Remove src-analysis.md and src-tree.md for a cleaner codebase

refactor: Modify prompts.ts to clarify instructions for memory processing

* refactor: Remove legacy worker service implementation

- Updated summary hook to include last assistant message in the summary request.
- Modified SDKSession interface to store last assistant message.
- Adjusted buildSummaryPrompt to utilize last assistant message for generating summaries.
- Updated worker service and session manager to handle last assistant message in summarize requests.

* feat: Add transcript processing scripts for analysis and formatting

- Implemented `dump-transcript-readable.ts` to generate a readable markdown dump of transcripts, excluding certain entry types.
- Created `extract-rich-context-examples.ts` to extract and showcase rich context examples from transcripts, highlighting user requests and assistant reasoning.
- Developed `format-transcript-context.ts` to format transcript context into a structured markdown format for improved observation generation.
- Added `test-transcript-parser.ts` for validating data extraction from transcript JSONL files, including statistics and error reporting.
- Introduced `transcript-to-markdown.ts` for a complete representation of transcript data in markdown format, showing all context data.
- Enhanced type definitions in `transcript.ts` to support new features and ensure type safety.
- Built `transcript-parser.ts` to handle parsing of transcript JSONL files, including error handling and data extraction methods.

* Refactor hooks and SDKAgent for improved observation handling

- Updated `new-hook.ts` to clean user prompts by stripping leading slashes for better semantic clarity.
- Enhanced `save-hook.ts` to include additional tools in the SKIP_TOOLS set, preventing unnecessary observations from certain command invocations.
- Modified `prompts.ts` to change the structure of observation prompts, emphasizing the observational role and providing a detailed XML output format for observations.
- Adjusted `SDKAgent.ts` to enforce stricter tool usage restrictions, ensuring the memory agent operates solely as an observer without any tool access.

* feat: Enhance session initialization to accept user prompts and prompt numbers

- Updated `handleSessionInit` in `worker-service.ts` to extract `userPrompt` and `promptNumber` from the request body and pass them to `initializeSession`.
- Modified `initializeSession` in `SessionManager.ts` to handle optional `currentUserPrompt` and `promptNumber` parameters.
- Added logic to update the existing session's `userPrompt` and `lastPromptNumber` if a `currentUserPrompt` is provided.
- Implemented debug logging for session initialization and updates to track user prompts and prompt numbers.
