On Windows, Bun doesn't properly release socket handles when the worker
process exits, causing "zombie ports" that remain bound even after all
processes are dead. This required a system reboot to clear.
Solution: Introduce a wrapper process (worker-wrapper.cjs) that:
- Spawns the actual worker as a child with IPC channel
- On restart/shutdown, uses `taskkill /T /F` to kill the entire process tree
- Exits itself, allowing hooks to start fresh
The wrapper has no sockets, so Bun's socket cleanup bug doesn't affect it.
When the wrapper kills the inner worker tree and exits, the port is properly
released and can be immediately reused.
Key changes:
- New worker-wrapper.ts for Windows process lifecycle management
- ProcessManager starts wrapper on Windows, worker directly on Unix
- Worker sends IPC messages to wrapper for restart/shutdown
- Health endpoint now includes debug info (build ID, managed status, hasIpc)
Tested: Restart API now properly releases port and new worker binds to same port.

that was breaking SQL parameter alignment (line 849)
2. import-memories.ts: Removed worker_port and prompt_counter fields from
sdk_sessions insert to fix schema mismatch with fresh databases
3. export-memories.ts: Fixed hardcoded port - now reads from settings via
SettingsDefaultsManager.loadFromFile()
HIGH PRIORITY:
4. export-memories.ts: Added database existence check with clear error
message before opening database connection
5. export-memories.ts: Fixed variable shadowing - renamed local 'query'
variable to 'sessionQuery' (line 90)
MEDIUM PRIORITY:
6. export-memories.ts: Improved type safety - added ObservationRecord,
SdkSessionRecord, SessionSummaryRecord, UserPromptRecord interfaces
All fixes tested and verified:
- Export script successfully exports with project filtering
- Import script works on existing database with duplicate prevention

- Replaced instances of silentDebug with happy_path_error__with_fallback across multiple files to improve error logging and handling.
- Updated the utility function to provide clearer semantics for error handling when expected values are missing.
- Introduced a script to find potential silent failures in the codebase that may need to be addressed with the new error handling approach.
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.

- Extracted timeline-related functionality from mcp-server.ts to a dedicated TimelineService class.
- Added methods to build, filter, and format timeline items based on observations, sessions, and prompts.
- Introduced interfaces for TimelineItem and TimelineData to standardize data structures.
- Implemented sorting and grouping of timeline items by date, with markdown formatting for output.
- Included utility methods for date and time formatting, as well as token estimation.
- Updated logging in `search-server.ts` to use `silentDebug` for non-critical messages, reducing console noise.
- Added a health check endpoint in `worker-service.ts` to improve service monitoring.
- Modified the worker service startup process to start the HTTP server immediately and perform slow initialization in the background.
- Refactored database initialization in `Database.ts` to use the correct `Database` class.
- Implemented a port availability check in `context-hook.ts` to ensure the worker service is ready before making requests.
Major architectural improvements to the worker service:
- Extracted monolithic WorkerService (~1900 lines) into organized route classes
- New HTTP layer with dedicated route handlers:
- SessionRoutes: Session lifecycle operations
- 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
- Added context-generator for hook context operations
This is Phase 1 of worker refactoring - pure code reorganization with zero
functional changes. All existing behavior preserved while improving
maintainability and code organization.

Fixes a SyntaxError where an extra closing brace on line 392 was causing
"Missing catch or finally after try" error. The PM2 worker startup
try/catch block was properly formed but had an orphaned closing brace
that didn't match any opening brace.

Implements three-layer defense against native module version mismatches:
Layer 1: Node.js Version Tracking
- Track Node.js version alongside package version in .install-version marker
- 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.

* feat: Add ID-based fetch endpoints and simplify mem-search skill
**Problem:**
- Search returns IDs but no way to fetch by ID
- Skill documentation was bloated with too many options
- Claude wasn't using IDs because we didn't tell it how
**Solution:**
1. Added three new HTTP endpoints:
- GET /api/observation/:id
- GET /api/session/:id
- GET /api/prompt/:id
2. Completely rewrote SKILL.md:
- Stripped complexity down to essentials
- Clear 3-step prescriptive workflow: Search → Review IDs → Fetch by ID
- Emphasized ID usage: "The IDs are there for a reason - USE THEM"
- Removed confusing multi-endpoint documentation
- Kept only unified search with filters
**Impact:**
- Token efficiency: Claude can now fetch full details only for relevant IDs
- Clarity: One clear workflow instead of 10+ options to choose from
- Usability: IDs are no longer wasted context - they're actionable
