* 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.

The timeline tools were completely broken due to parameter name mismatch.
There's nothing to migrate from since the old parameters never worked.

* 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.

- Added a new line after the command to run for restarting the worker in the error message.
- Included an additional instruction to restart Claude Code after running the worker restart command.
* Enhance error logging in hooks
- Added detailed error logging in context-hook, new-hook, save-hook, and summary-hook to capture status, project, port, and relevant session information on failures.
- Improved error messages thrown in save-hook and summary-hook to include specific context about the failure.
* Refactor migration logging to use console.log instead of console.error
- Updated SessionSearch and SessionStore classes to replace console.error with console.log for migration-related messages.
- Added notes in the documentation to clarify the use of console.log for migration messages due to the unavailability of the structured logger during constructor execution.
* Refactor SDKAgent and silent-debug utility to simplify error handling
- Updated SDKAgent to use direct defaults instead of happy_path_error__with_fallback for non-critical fields such as last_user_message, last_assistant_message, title, filesRead, filesModified, concepts, and summary.request.
- Enhanced silent-debug documentation to clarify appropriate use cases for happy_path_error__with_fallback, emphasizing its role in handling unexpected null/undefined values while discouraging its use for nullable fields with valid defaults.
* fix: correct happy_path_error__with_fallback usage to prevent false errors
Fixes false "Missing cwd" and "Missing transcript_path" errors that were
flooding silent.log even when values were present.
Root cause: happy_path_error__with_fallback was being called unconditionally
instead of only when the value was actually missing.
Pattern changed from:
value: happy_path_error__with_fallback('Missing', {}, value || '')
To correct usage:
value: value || happy_path_error__with_fallback('Missing', {}, '')
Fixed in:
- src/hooks/save-hook.ts (PostToolUse hook)
- src/hooks/summary-hook.ts (Stop hook)
- src/services/worker/http/routes/SessionRoutes.ts (2 instances)
Impact: Eliminates false error noise, making actual errors visible.
Addresses issue #260 - users were seeing "Missing cwd" errors despite
Claude Code correctly passing all required fields.

- Updated `context-hook.ts`, `new-hook.ts`, `save-hook.ts`, and `summary-hook.ts` to utilize the new error handler, improving consistency and maintainability.
- Removed redundant imports and error handling logic related to worker restart instructions from the hooks.

Removes bun-wrapper indirection. Hooks are compiled JavaScript that work perfectly with Node. Worker still uses Bun where performance matters. Fixes#264
Enhancement to process leak fix from v7.1.9 - automatically detects and
kills orphaned chroma-mcp processes when the worker starts.
Changes:
- Added cleanupOrphanedProcesses() method to WorkerService
- Scans for existing chroma-mcp processes on startup
- Kills all found processes before creating new ones
- Logs cleanup activity (process count and PIDs)
- Non-fatal error handling (continues on cleanup failure)
Benefits:
- Automatically recovers from pre-7.1.9 process leaks
- Ensures clean slate on every worker restart
- No manual intervention needed to cleanup orphans
- Prevents accumulation even if v7.1.9 close() fails
Verified working in logs:
[INFO] [SYSTEM] Cleaning up orphaned chroma-mcp processes {count=2, pids=33753,33750}
[INFO] [SYSTEM] Orphaned processes cleaned up {count=2}

Critical bugfix: ChromaSync now properly cleans up chroma-mcp subprocesses
when the worker is restarted, preventing memory exhaustion from orphaned
processes accumulating over time.
Changes:
- Store reference to StdioClientTransport subprocess
- Explicitly close transport in close() method to kill subprocess
- Add error handling to ensure cleanup even on failures
- Reset all state in finally block
Problem:
Each worker restart spawned a new chroma-mcp process but never killed the
old one. After multiple restarts, orphaned processes accumulated (16+ seen
in production), consuming 900MB+ RAM and eventually causing OOM kills that
silently failed backfills.
Impact:
- Eliminates process accumulation
- Prevents memory exhaustion from leaked subprocesses
- Fixes silent backfill failures caused by OOM kills
- Ensures graceful cleanup on worker shutdown

Removed the process.type = 'renderer' workaround that was causing libuv
assertion failures on Windows. This hack was attempting to hide console
windows but resulted in crashes when process.title was accessed.
Prioritizing stability over cosmetics - console windows may briefly appear
on Windows until the MCP SDK provides proper window hiding support.
