+# Chroma Vector Database - Hybrid Semantic Search
+
+## Overview
+
+Claude-Mem v5.0.0 introduced **Chroma**, a vector database that enables semantic search across your memory stream. Combined with SQLite's FTS5 keyword search, this creates a powerful **hybrid search architecture** that finds contextually relevant observations using both meaning and keywords.
+
+**Key Benefits:**
+- 🧠 **Semantic Search** - Find observations by meaning, not just keywords
+- 🔍 **Hybrid Architecture** - Combines semantic similarity with keyword matching
+- ⏱️ **Recency Filtering** - Focus on recent 90 days for relevant context
+- ⚡ **Fast Performance** - Semantic search under 200ms with 8,000+ documents
+- 🔄 **Auto-Sync** - ChromaSync service keeps vectors updated automatically
+
+## What is Chroma?
+
+[ChromaDB](https://www.trychroma.com/) is an open-source vector database designed for AI applications. It stores text as **vector embeddings** - mathematical representations that capture semantic meaning.
+
+**Example:**
+```
+Query: "authentication bug"
+Keyword Match: Must contain both "authentication" AND "bug"
+Semantic Match: Also finds "login error", "auth failure", "sign-in issue"
+```
+
+Semantic search understands that "authentication bug" is conceptually similar to "login error" even though they share no keywords.

+### ChromaSync Service
+
+The **ChromaSync** service (`src/services/sync/ChromaSync.ts`) automatically synchronizes observations to Chroma:
+
+**When Observations Are Synced:**
+1. **Session Summary** - After each session completes, all new observations synced
+2. **Worker Startup** - On initialization, checks for unsynced observations
+3. **Manual Trigger** - Can force sync via internal API (development only)
+
+**What Gets Embedded:**
+- Observation ID (unique identifier)
+- Title (compressed learning statement)
+- Narrative (detailed explanation)
+- Project path (for project-specific filtering)
+- Timestamp (for recency filtering)
+- Concepts (semantic tags)
+- File references (associated code files)
+
+**Embedding Model:**
+- Currently using Chroma's default embedding function
+- Future: Configurable embedding models (e.g., OpenAI, sentence-transformers)
+
+### Data Structure
+
+**SQLite (Source of Truth):**
+```sql
+CREATE TABLE observations (
+  id INTEGER PRIMARY KEY,
+  title TEXT,
+  narrative TEXT,
+  facts TEXT,
+  concepts TEXT,
+  files TEXT,
+  type TEXT,
+  projectPath TEXT,
+  createdAt INTEGER
+);
+```
+
+**Chroma (Vector Embeddings):**
+```typescript
+{
+  ids: ["obs_12345"],
+  embeddings: [[0.123, -0.456, ...]], // 384-dimensional vector
+  documents: ["Title: Authentication flow\nNarrative: Implemented..."],
+  metadatas: [{
+    type: "feature",

+    concepts: "pattern,architecture"
+  }]
+}
+```
+
+## How Semantic Search Works
+
+### Vector Embeddings
+
+Text converted to high-dimensional vectors that capture meaning:
+
+```
+"user authentication" → [0.12, -0.34, 0.56, ..., 0.78]
+"login system"        → [0.15, -0.32, 0.54, ..., 0.81]
+"database schema"     → [-0.45, 0.67, -0.23, ..., 0.12]
+```
+
+Notice: "user authentication" and "login system" have similar vectors (close in vector space), while "database schema" is distant.
+
+### Similarity Search
+
+Chroma uses **cosine similarity** to find nearest neighbors:
+
+```typescript
+// Query embedding
+query: "authentication bug"
+query_vector: [0.14, -0.33, 0.55, ..., 0.79]
+
+// Find observations with similar vectors
+results = chroma.query(
+  query_vector,
+  n_results: 10,
+  where: { timestamp: { $gte: now - 90_days } }
+)
+```
+
+**Result Ranking:**
+- Higher cosine similarity = more semantically similar
+- Filtered by 90-day recency window
+- Combined with keyword matches from FTS5
+
+## 90-Day Recency Filtering
+
+Why 90 days?
+
+**Rationale:**
+- Recent context more likely relevant to current work
+- Prevents very old observations from diluting results
+- Balances completeness with relevance
+- Reduces vector search space for faster queries
+
+**Implementation:**
+```typescript
+const ninetyDaysAgo = Date.now() - (90 * 24 * 60 * 60 * 1000);
+
+// Chroma metadata filter
+where: {
+  timestamp: { $gte: ninetyDaysAgo }
+}
+
+// SQLite WHERE clause
+WHERE createdAt >= ?
+```
+
+**Configurable?**
+- Not currently user-configurable
+- Hard-coded in `src/servers/search-server.ts`
+- Future: Add `CLAUDE_MEM_RECENCY_DAYS` environment variable
+
+## MCP Tool Integration
+
+All 9 MCP search tools benefit from hybrid search:
+
+### search_observations (Hybrid)
+
+```typescript
+// Keyword-only (v4.x)
+search_observations(query: "authentication")
+// Returns: Observations containing "authentication"
+
+// Hybrid semantic + keyword (v5.x)
+search_observations(query: "authentication")
+// Returns: Observations with "authentication" PLUS semantically similar:
+//   - "login system"
+//   - "user credentials"
+//   - "session management"
+```
+
+### get_timeline_by_query (Semantic-First)
+
+```typescript
+// Uses Chroma to find best match, then builds timeline
+get_timeline_by_query(
+  query: "when did we implement the viewer UI?",
+  mode: "auto",
+  depth_before: 10,
+  depth_after: 10
+)
+
+// Chroma finds: Observation #4057 "Web-Based Viewer UI for Real-Time Memory Stream"
+// Returns: Timeline with 10 observations before + anchor + 10 after
+```
+
+### Benefits Across All Tools
+
+- **find_by_concept**: Semantic similarity finds related concepts
+- **find_by_file**: Finds semantically similar code changes
+- **find_by_type**: Better relevance ranking within type
+- **get_recent_context**: Prioritizes semantically relevant recent context
+
+## Performance
+
+### Benchmarks (8,279 vector documents)
+
+| Operation | Time | Notes |
+|-----------|------|-------|
+| **Semantic Query** | 150-200ms | 90-day window, top 10 results |
+| **Keyword Query (FTS5)** | 5-10ms | Full-text search |
+| **Hybrid Query** | 160-220ms | Combined semantic + keyword |
+| **Initial Sync** | 2-5 min | First-time embedding of all observations |
+| **Incremental Sync** | 100-500ms | 1-10 new observations per session |
+
+### Memory Usage
+
+- **Chroma DB Size**: ~50MB for 8,000 observations
+- **Embeddings**: 384 dimensions × 4 bytes = 1.5KB per observation
+- **Metadata**: ~500 bytes per observation (project, type, timestamp)
+- **Total**: ~2KB per observation in Chroma
+
+### Optimization Tips
+
+1. **Reduce vector dimensions**: Use smaller embedding models (future)
+2. **Adjust recency window**: Narrow to 30/60 days for faster queries
+3. **Limit result count**: Request fewer results (n_results=5 vs 10)
+4. **Project filtering**: Add project filter to metadata query
+
+## Installation & Dependencies
+
+### Python Requirement
+
+Chroma requires Python 3.7+ installed:
+
+**Check Python:**
+```bash
+python3 --version
+# Should show: Python 3.7.x or higher
+```
+
+**Install Python (if needed):**
+- **macOS**: `brew install python3`
+- **Windows**: Download from [python.org](https://www.python.org/downloads/)
+- **Linux**: `apt-get install python3` or `yum install python3`
+
+### ChromaDB Installation
+
+Chroma installed automatically as npm dependency:
+
+```bash
+npm install
+# Installs: chromadb (Python package via node-gyp bindings)
+```
+
+**Manual Installation (if auto-install fails):**
+```bash
+pip3 install chromadb
+```
+
+### Troubleshooting Installation
+
+**Error: "Python not found"**
+```bash
+# Set Python path explicitly
+export PYTHON=/usr/local/bin/python3
+npm install
+```
+
+**Error: "chromadb module not found"**
+```bash
+# Reinstall chromadb
+pip3 install --upgrade chromadb
+
+# Verify installation
+python3 -c "import chromadb; print(chromadb.__version__)"
+```
+
+**Error: "node-gyp build failed"**
+```bash
+# Install build tools
+# macOS: xcode-select --install
+# Windows: npm install --global windows-build-tools
+# Linux: apt-get install build-essential
+```
+
+## Configuration
+
+### Environment Variables
+
+Currently no user-configurable settings. Future options:
+
+```json
+// Proposed for future versions
+{
+  "env": {
+    "CLAUDE_MEM_CHROMA_ENABLED": "true",          // Enable/disable Chroma
+    "CLAUDE_MEM_CHROMA_PATH": "~/.claude-mem/chroma", // DB location
+    "CLAUDE_MEM_EMBEDDING_MODEL": "default",       // Embedding model choice
+    "CLAUDE_MEM_RECENCY_DAYS": "90",              // Recency window
+    "CLAUDE_MEM_VECTOR_DIM": "384"                // Embedding dimensions
+  }
+}
+```
+
+### Disabling Chroma (Future)
+
+To disable semantic search and use keyword-only:
+
+```json
+{
+  "env": {
+    "CLAUDE_MEM_CHROMA_ENABLED": "false"
+  }
+}
+```
+
+Falls back to SQLite FTS5 keyword search only.
+
+## Database Maintenance
+
+### Location
+
+```
+~/.claude-mem/chroma/
+├── chroma.sqlite3         # Chroma metadata database
+└── index/                 # Vector index files
+    └── *.bin              # Binary vector data
+```
+
+### Backup
+
+```bash
+# Backup entire Chroma directory
+cp -r ~/.claude-mem/chroma ~/.claude-mem/chroma.backup
+
+# Restore from backup
+rm -rf ~/.claude-mem/chroma
+cp -r ~/.claude-mem/chroma.backup ~/.claude-mem/chroma
+```
+
+### Reset Chroma (Force Resync)
+
+```bash
+# Delete Chroma database
+rm -rf ~/.claude-mem/chroma
+
+# Restart worker to trigger full resync
+npm run worker:restart
+
+# Check logs for sync progress
+npm run worker:logs
+```
+
+**Note**: Resync can take 2-5 minutes for thousands of observations.
+
+### Disk Space Management
+
+**Chroma grows with observations:**
+- 1,000 observations ≈ 5MB
+- 10,000 observations ≈ 50MB
+- 100,000 observations ≈ 500MB
+
+**Cleanup old observations:**
+```sql
+-- Delete observations older than 1 year
+-- This will trigger Chroma resync on next startup
+sqlite3 ~/.claude-mem/claude-mem.db \
+  "DELETE FROM observations WHERE createdAt < strftime('%s', 'now', '-1 year') * 1000;"
+```
+
+## Advanced Usage
+
+### Direct Chroma Queries (Development)
+
+For debugging or custom queries:
+
+```typescript
+import { ChromaSync } from './services/sync/ChromaSync';
+
+const sync = new ChromaSync();
+await sync.initialize();
+
+// Query Chroma directly
+const results = await sync.query({
+  queryTexts: ["authentication implementation"],
+  nResults: 10,
+  where: {
+    type: "feature",
+    timestamp: { $gte: Date.now() - 90_days }
+  }
+});
+
+console.log(results.ids, results.distances, results.documents);
+```
+
+### Custom Embedding Models (Future)
+
+Chroma supports multiple embedding models:
+
+```typescript
+// Future configuration
+const sync = new ChromaSync({
+  embeddingModel: "sentence-transformers/all-MiniLM-L6-v2", // Smaller, faster
+  // or: "text-embedding-ada-002" (OpenAI, requires API key)
+  // or: "all-mpnet-base-v2" (Higher quality, slower)
+});
+```
+
+### Metadata Filtering
+
+Chroma supports advanced metadata queries:
+
+```typescript
+// Find observations by type and project
+results = await sync.query({
+  queryTexts: ["API design"],
+  where: {
+    $and: [
+      { type: { $in: ["decision", "feature"] } },
+      { project: "claude-mem" }
+    ]
+  }
+});
+
+// Find recent observations
+results = await sync.query({
+  queryTexts: ["database schema"],
+  where: {
+    timestamp: { $gte: Date.now() - 30_days }
+  }
+});
+```
+
+## Comparison: Semantic vs Keyword Search
+
+| Aspect | Semantic (Chroma) | Keyword (FTS5) |
+|--------|-------------------|----------------|
+| **Speed** | 150-200ms | 5-10ms |
+| **Accuracy** | High (meaning-based) | Medium (exact match) |
+| **Storage** | ~2KB per observation | ~500 bytes per observation |
+| **Conceptual Matching** | ✅ Yes | ❌ No |
+| **Exact Match** | ❌ Not guaranteed | ✅ Always |
+| **Typo Tolerance** | ✅ High | ⚠️ Limited (fuzzy) |
+| **Dependencies** | Python + chromadb | None (SQLite built-in) |
+| **Recency Bias** | ✅ Built-in (90 days) | Manual filtering |
+
+**Best Practice:** Use hybrid search (both) for optimal results.
+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+### "Chroma not found" Error
+
+**Symptom:** Worker logs show "Chroma not available, using keyword-only search"
+
+**Solution:**
+```bash
+# Check Python installation
+python3 --version
+
+# Reinstall chromadb
+pip3 install chromadb
+
+# Restart worker
+npm run worker:restart
+```
+
+### Slow Query Performance
+
+**Symptom:** Searches taking >1 second
+
+**Solutions:**
+1. Reduce recency window (edit `src/servers/search-server.ts`)
+2. Limit result count (`nResults: 5` instead of 10)
+3. Add project filter to narrow search space
+4. Check Chroma index size (may need rebuild)
+
+### Out of Memory Errors
+
+**Symptom:** Worker crashes with "JavaScript heap out of memory"
+
+**Solution:**
+```bash
+# Increase Node.js heap size
+export NODE_OPTIONS="--max-old-space-size=4096"
+
+# Restart worker
+npm run worker:restart
+```
+
+### Sync Taking Too Long
+
+**Symptom:** Initial Chroma sync takes >10 minutes
+
+**Possible Causes:**
+- Large number of observations (>10,000)
+- Slow embedding model
+- Limited CPU resources
+
+**Solutions:**
+1. Let it complete (one-time cost)
+2. Delete very old observations to reduce count
+3. Close resource-intensive apps during sync
+
+## Future Enhancements
+
+Potential improvements for future versions:
+
+- **Configurable Recency**: User-defined recency window (30/60/90/365 days)
+- **Custom Embeddings**: Choose embedding model (quality vs speed trade-off)
+- **Incremental Updates**: Update existing vectors instead of full resync
+- **Semantic Filters**: Search by semantic concept ("all architectural decisions")
+- **Multi-Language Support**: Embeddings optimized for non-English code/docs
+- **Clustering**: Auto-cluster related observations for discovery
+- **Visualization**: 2D/3D visualization of vector space (similar observations near each other)

+
+## Features In Detail
+
+### Real-Time Updates (SSE)
+
+The viewer uses Server-Sent Events to receive updates instantly:
+
+```typescript
+// SSE message format
+{
+  "type": "observation" | "summary" | "prompt" | "projects" | "processing",
+  "data": { /* record data */ }
+}
+```
+
+**Event Types:**
+- `observation` - New observation created
+- `summary` - Session summary generated
+- `prompt` - User prompt captured
+- `projects` - Project list updated
+- `processing` - Session processing status changed
+
+**Connection Management:**
+- Auto-reconnect on disconnect with exponential backoff
+- Visual connection status indicator in header
+- Graceful degradation if SSE unavailable
+
+### Infinite Scroll Pagination
+
+The feed loads historical data progressively:
+
+1. **Initial Load**: First 20 records loaded on mount
+2. **Scroll Trigger**: When user scrolls to 80% of feed height
+3. **Batch Load**: Next 20 records fetched via `/api/{type}?offset=X&limit=20`
+4. **Deduplication**: Merges with real-time data, removes duplicates by ID
+5. **Loading State**: Skeleton cards show while fetching
+
+**Performance:**
+- Requests debounced to prevent spam
+- Only visible when scrolled near bottom
+- Continues until no more records available
+
+### Project Filtering
+
+Filter memory stream by specific projects:
+
+1. Projects extracted from observations, summaries, and prompts
+2. Sidebar shows all unique project names with counts
+3. Click project name to filter feed
+4. Click "All Projects" to clear filter
+5. Filter persisted to localStorage
+
+**Project Detection:**
+- Extracted from `projectPath` or `project` field in records
+- Basename of path used as project name
+- Empty/null projects shown as "(No Project)"
+
+### Theme Toggle (v5.1.2)
+
+Three theme modes available:
+
+- **Light Mode**: Clean white background, dark text
+- **Dark Mode**: Dark background, light text (default)
+- **System**: Matches OS preference automatically
+
+**Implementation:**
+```typescript
+// Theme preference stored in localStorage
+localStorage.setItem('theme-preference', 'light' | 'dark' | 'system');
+
+// CSS variables updated dynamically
+document.documentElement.setAttribute('data-theme', resolvedTheme);
+```
+
+**CSS Variables:**
+```css
+:root[data-theme="light"] {
+  --bg-primary: #ffffff;
+  --text-primary: #1f2937;
+  /* ... */
+}
+
+:root[data-theme="dark"] {
+  --bg-primary: #111827;
+  --text-primary: #f9fafb;
+  /* ... */
+}
+```
+
+### Settings Persistence
+
+Settings automatically saved to worker service:
+
+**Saved Settings:**
+- `sidebarOpen` - Sidebar expanded/collapsed state
+- `selectedProject` - Current project filter
+- `theme` - Theme preference (light/dark/system)
+
+**API Endpoints:**
+- `GET /api/settings` - Retrieve saved settings
+- `POST /api/settings` - Save settings (debounced 500ms)
+
+**Local Fallback:**
+- If API unavailable, settings stored in localStorage
+- Synced back to API when connection restored
+

+export function MyCard({ data }: { data: MyData }) {
+  return (
+    <div className="card">
+      <div className="card-header">{data.title}</div>
+      <div className="card-body">{data.content}</div>
+    </div>
+  );
+}
+```
+
+2. Add to Feed component:
+```typescript
+// src/ui/viewer/components/Feed.tsx
+import { MyCard } from './cards/MyCard';
+
+// In render:
+{myData.map(item => <MyCard key={item.id} data={item} />)}
+```

+3. Restart worker: `npm run worker:restart`
+4. Refresh browser (http://localhost:37777)
+5. Check browser console for errors
+
+## API Integration
+
+The viewer consumes these worker service endpoints:
+
+### Data Retrieval
+
+```typescript
+// Get paginated observations
+GET /api/observations?offset=0&limit=20&project=myproject
+Response: { observations: Observation[], hasMore: boolean }
+
+// Get paginated summaries
+GET /api/summaries?offset=0&limit=20&project=myproject
+Response: { summaries: Summary[], hasMore: boolean }
+

+
+## Performance Considerations
+
+### Bundle Size
+- Self-contained HTML: ~150KB (gzipped)
+- No external dependencies loaded at runtime
+- Monaspace Radon font embedded (subset)
+
+### Memory Management
+- Virtualization: Only renders visible cards
+- Deduplication: Prevents duplicate records in memory
+- Cleanup: Old records beyond pagination limit pruned
+
+### Network Efficiency
+- SSE: Single long-lived connection for real-time updates
+- REST: Paginated requests (20 records per batch)
+- Debouncing: Settings saves debounced 500ms
+
+### Rendering Performance
+- React.memo: Cards memoized to prevent unnecessary re-renders
+- useMemo: Data merging/filtering memoized
+- CSS transitions: GPU-accelerated for smooth animations
+
+## Future Enhancements
+
+Potential features for future versions:
+
+- **Search**: Full-text search across observations, summaries, prompts
+- **Export**: Download data as JSON, CSV, or markdown
+- **Charts**: Visualize observation frequency, types, concepts over time
+- **Keyboard Shortcuts**: Navigate feed, toggle sidebar, switch themes
+- **Notifications**: Browser notifications for important observations
+- **Dark/Light Auto-Schedule**: Auto-switch theme based on time of day
+- **Custom Themes**: User-defined color schemes
+- **Multi-Project Views**: Compare multiple projects side-by-side

 ## The Problem We Solved

 ---

+## v5.x: Maturity and User Experience
+
+After establishing the solid v4 architecture, v5.x focused on user experience, visualization, and polish.
+
+### v5.1.2: Theme Toggle (November 2025)
+
+**What Changed**: Added light/dark mode theme toggle to viewer UI
+
+**New Features**:
+- User-selectable theme preference (light, dark, system)
+- Persistent theme settings in localStorage
+- Smooth theme transitions
+- System preference detection
+
+**Implementation**:
+```typescript
+// Theme context with persistence
+const ThemeProvider = ({ children }) => {
+  const [theme, setTheme] = useState<'light' | 'dark' | 'system'>(() => {
+    return localStorage.getItem('claude-mem-theme') || 'system';
+  });
+
+  useEffect(() => {
+    localStorage.setItem('claude-mem-theme', theme);
+  }, [theme]);
+
+  return (
+    <ThemeContext.Provider value={{ theme, setTheme }}>
+      {children}
+    </ThemeContext.Provider>
+  );
+};
+```
+
+**Why It Matters**: Users working in different lighting conditions can now customize the viewer for comfort.
+
+### v5.1.1: PM2 Windows Fix (November 2025)
+
+**The Problem**: PM2 startup failed on Windows with ENOENT error
+
+**Root Cause**:
+```typescript
+// ❌ Failed on Windows - PM2 not in PATH
+execSync('pm2 start ecosystem.config.cjs');
+```
+
+**The Fix**:
+```typescript
+// ✅ Use full path to PM2 binary
+const PM2_PATH = join(PLUGIN_ROOT, 'node_modules', '.bin', 'pm2');
+execSync(`"${PM2_PATH}" start "${ECOSYSTEM_CONFIG}"`);
+```
+
+**Impact**: Cross-platform compatibility restored, Windows users can now use claude-mem without issues.
+
+### v5.1.0: Web-Based Viewer UI (October 2025)
+
+**The Breakthrough**: Real-time visualization of memory stream
+
+**What We Built**:
+- React-based web UI at http://localhost:37777
+- Server-Sent Events (SSE) for real-time updates
+- Infinite scroll pagination
+- Project filtering
+- Settings persistence (sidebar state, selected project)
+- Auto-reconnection with exponential backoff
+- GPU-accelerated animations
+
+**New Worker Endpoints** (8 additions):
+```
+GET /                    # Serves viewer HTML
+GET /stream              # SSE real-time updates
+GET /api/prompts         # Paginated user prompts
+GET /api/observations    # Paginated observations
+GET /api/summaries       # Paginated session summaries
+GET /api/stats           # Database statistics
+GET /api/settings        # User settings
+POST /api/settings       # Save settings
+```
+
+**Database Enhancements**:
+```typescript
+// New SessionStore methods for viewer
+getRecentPrompts(limit, offset, project?)
+getRecentObservations(limit, offset, project?)
+getRecentSummaries(limit, offset, project?)
+getStats()
+getUniqueProjects()
+```
+
+**React Architecture**:
+```

+    ├── merge.ts            # Data deduplication
+    └── format.ts           # Display formatting
+```
+
+**Build Process**:
+```typescript
+// esbuild bundles everything into single HTML file
+esbuild.build({
+  entryPoints: ['src/ui/viewer/index.tsx'],
+  bundle: true,
+  outfile: 'plugin/ui/viewer.html',
+  loader: { '.tsx': 'tsx', '.woff2': 'dataurl' },
+  define: { 'process.env.NODE_ENV': '"production"' },
+});
+```
+
+**Why It Matters**: Users can now see exactly what's being captured in real-time, making the memory system transparent and debuggable.
+
+### v5.0.3: Smart Install Caching (October 2025)
+
+**The Problem**: `npm install` ran on every SessionStart (2-5 seconds)
+
+**The Insight**: Dependencies rarely change between sessions
+
+**The Solution**: Version-based caching
+```typescript
+// Check version marker before installing
+const currentVersion = getPackageVersion();
+const installedVersion = readFileSync('.install-version', 'utf-8');
+
+if (currentVersion !== installedVersion) {
+  // Only install if version changed
+  await runNpmInstall();
+  writeFileSync('.install-version', currentVersion);
+}
+```
+
+**Cached Check Logic**:
+1. Does `node_modules` exist?
+2. Does `.install-version` match `package.json` version?
+3. Is `better-sqlite3` present?
+
+**Impact**:
+- SessionStart hook: 2-5 seconds → 10ms (99.5% faster)
+- Only installs on: first run, version change, missing deps
+- Better Windows error messages with build tool help
+
+### v5.0.2: Worker Health Checks (October 2025)
+
+**What Changed**: More robust worker startup and monitoring
+
+**New Features**:
+```typescript
+// Health check endpoint
+app.get('/health', (req, res) => {
+  res.json({
+    status: 'ok',
+    uptime: process.uptime(),
+    port: WORKER_PORT,
+    memory: process.memoryUsage(),
+  });
+});
+
+// Smart worker startup
+async function ensureWorkerHealthy() {
+  const healthy = await isWorkerHealthy(1000);
+  if (!healthy) {
+    await startWorker();
+    await waitForWorkerHealth(10000);
+  }
+}
+```
+
+**Benefits**:
+- Graceful degradation when worker is down
+- Auto-recovery from crashes
+- Better error messages for debugging
+
+### v5.0.1: Stability Improvements (October 2025)
+
+**What Changed**: Various bug fixes and stability enhancements
+
+**Key Fixes**:
+- Fixed race conditions in observation queue processing
+- Improved error handling in SDK worker
+- Better cleanup of stale PM2 processes
+- Enhanced logging for debugging
+
+### v5.0.0: Hybrid Search Architecture (October 2025)
+
+**The Evolution**: SQLite FTS5 + Chroma vector search
+
+**What We Added**:
+```
+┌─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┐

+│              Merge + Re-rank Results                     │
+└─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘
+```
+
+**New Dependencies**:
+- `chromadb` - Vector database for semantic search
+- Python 3.8+ - Required by chromadb
+
+**MCP Tools Enhancement**:
+```typescript
+// Chroma-backed semantic search
+search_observations({
+  query: "authentication bug",
+  useSemanticSearch: true  // Uses Chroma
+});
+
+// Falls back to FTS5 if Chroma unavailable
+```
+
+**Why Hybrid**:
+- FTS5: Fast keyword matching, no dependencies
+- Chroma: Semantic understanding, finds related concepts
+- Graceful degradation: Works without Chroma (FTS5 only)
+
+**Trade-offs**:
+- Added Python dependency (optional)
+- Increased installation complexity
+- Better search relevance

+### 9. get_timeline_by_query
+
+Search for observations using natural language and get timeline context around the best match. Combines search + timeline into a single operation.
+
+**Parameters**:
+- `query` (required): Natural language search query to find relevant observations
+- `mode` (default: "auto"): Operation mode
+  - `"auto"`: Automatically use top search result as timeline anchor
+  - `"interactive"`: Return top N search results for manual anchor selection
+- `depth_before` (default: 10): Number of timeline records before anchor (max: 50)
+- `depth_after` (default: 10): Number of timeline records after anchor (max: 50)
+- `limit` (default: 5): For interactive mode - number of top search results to display (max: 20)
+- `project`: Filter by project name
+
+**Use Case**: Faster context discovery - "show me what happened around when we fixed the authentication bug"
+
+**Example - Auto Mode**:
+```
+# Automatically find and show timeline for "authentication bug"
+get_timeline_by_query with query="authentication bug" and mode="auto" and depth_before=10 and depth_after=10
+```
+
+**Example - Interactive Mode**:
+```
+# Show top 5 matches, let user choose anchor
+get_timeline_by_query with query="authentication bug" and mode="interactive" and limit=5
+```
+
+**Auto Mode Response**:
+```json
+{
+  "search_result": {
+    "id": 123,
+    "title": "Fix authentication bug",
+    "relevance": 0.95
+  },
+  "timeline": [
+    /* timeline records before and after observation 123 */
+  ]
+}
+```
+
+**Interactive Mode Response**:
+```json
+{
+  "top_results": [
+    {
+      "id": 123,
+      "title": "Fix authentication bug",

+- Injects them as context at SessionStart

+- **Lower values** = Faster SessionStart but less historical awareness

+## Viewer UI Development
+
+### Working with the React Viewer
+
+The web viewer UI is a React application built into a self-contained HTML bundle.
+
+**Location**: `src/ui/viewer/`
+
+**Structure**:
+```

+│   └── merge.ts           # Data merging and deduplication
+└── assets/                # Static assets (fonts, logos)
+```
+
+### Building Viewer UI
+
+```bash
+# Build everything including viewer
+npm run build
+
+# The viewer is built to plugin/ui/viewer.html
+# It's a self-contained HTML file with inlined JS and CSS
+```
+
+### Testing Viewer Changes
+
+1. Make changes to React components in `src/ui/viewer/`
+2. Build: `npm run build`
+3. Sync to installed plugin: `npm run sync-marketplace`
+4. Restart worker: `npm run worker:restart`
+5. Refresh browser at http://localhost:37777
+
+**Hot Reload**: Not currently supported. Full rebuild + restart required for changes.
+
+### Adding New Viewer Features
+
+**Example: Adding a new card type**
+
+1. Create component in `src/ui/viewer/components/cards/YourCard.tsx`:
+
+```tsx
+import React from 'react';
+
+export interface YourCardProps {
+  // Your data structure
+}
+
+export const YourCard: React.FC<YourCardProps> = ({ ... }) => {
+  return (
+    <div className="card">
+      {/* Your UI */}
+    </div>
+  );
+};
+```
+
+2. Import and use in `Feed.tsx`:
+
+```tsx
+import { YourCard } from './cards/YourCard';
+
+// In render logic:
+{item.type === 'your_type' && <YourCard {...item} />}
+```
+
+3. Update types if needed in `src/ui/viewer/types.ts`
+
+4. Rebuild and test
+
+### Viewer UI Architecture
+
+**Data Flow**:
+1. Worker service exposes HTTP + SSE endpoints
+2. React app fetches initial data via HTTP (paginated)
+3. SSE connection provides real-time updates
+4. Custom hooks handle state management and data merging
+5. Components render cards based on item type
+
+**Key Patterns**:
+- **Infinite Scroll**: `usePagination` hook with Intersection Observer
+- **Real-Time Updates**: `useSSE` hook with auto-reconnection
+- **Deduplication**: `merge.ts` utilities prevent duplicate items
+- **Settings Persistence**: `useSettings` hook with localStorage
+- **Theme Support**: CSS variables with light/dark/system themes

+### Hook 1: SessionStart - Smart Install

-**When:** Claude Code starts or resumes
+**Purpose:** Intelligently manage dependencies and start worker service
+
+**When:** Claude Code starts (startup, clear, or compact)

 **What it does:**
-1. Extracts project name from current working directory
-2. Queries SQLite for recent session summaries (last 10)
-3. Queries SQLite for recent observations (last 50)
-4. Formats as progressive disclosure index
-5. Outputs to stdout (automatically injected into context)
+1. Checks if dependencies need installation (version marker)
+2. Only runs `npm install` when necessary:
+   - First-time installation
+   - Version changed in package.json
+   - Critical dependency missing (better-sqlite3)
+3. Provides Windows-specific error messages
+4. Starts PM2 worker service

 # Troubleshooting Guide

+## v5.x Specific Issues
+
+### Viewer UI Not Loading
+
+**Symptoms**: Cannot access http://localhost:37777, page doesn't load, or shows connection error.
+
+**Solutions**:
+
+1. Check if worker is running on port 37777:
+   ```bash
+   lsof -i :37777
+   # or
+   npm run worker:status
+   ```
+
+2. Verify worker is healthy:
+   ```bash
+   curl http://localhost:37777/health
+   ```
+
+3. Check worker logs for errors:
+   ```bash
+   npm run worker:logs
+   ```
+
+4. Restart worker service:
+   ```bash
+   npm run worker:restart
+   ```
+
+5. Check for port conflicts:
+   ```bash
+   # If port 37777 is in use by another service
+   export CLAUDE_MEM_WORKER_PORT=38000
+   npm run worker:restart
+   ```
+
+### Theme Toggle Not Persisting
+
+**Symptoms**: Theme preference (light/dark mode) resets after browser refresh.
+
+**Solutions**:
+
+1. Check browser localStorage is enabled:
+   ```javascript
+   // In browser console
+   localStorage.getItem('claude-mem-settings')
+   ```
+
+2. Verify settings endpoint is working:
+   ```bash
+   curl http://localhost:37777/api/settings
+   ```
+
+3. Clear localStorage and try again:
+   ```javascript
+   // In browser console
+   localStorage.removeItem('claude-mem-settings')
+   ```
+
+4. Check for browser privacy mode (blocks localStorage)
+
+### SSE Connection Issues
+
+**Symptoms**: Viewer shows "Disconnected" status, updates not appearing in real-time.
+
+**Solutions**:
+
+1. Check SSE endpoint is accessible:
+   ```bash
+   curl -N http://localhost:37777/stream
+   ```
+
+2. Check browser console for errors:
+   - Open DevTools (F12)
+   - Look for EventSource errors
+   - Check Network tab for failed /stream requests
+
+3. Verify worker is running:
+   ```bash
+   npm run worker:status
+   ```
+
+4. Check for network/proxy issues blocking SSE
+   - Corporate firewalls may block SSE
+   - Try disabling VPN temporarily
+
+5. Restart worker and refresh browser:
+   ```bash
+   npm run worker:restart
+   ```
+
+### Chroma/Python Dependency Issues (v5.0.0+)
+
+**Symptoms**: Installation fails with chromadb or Python-related errors.
+
+**Solutions**:
+
+1. Verify Python 3.8+ is installed:
+   ```bash
+   python --version
+   # or
+   python3 --version
+   ```
+
+2. Install chromadb manually:
+   ```bash
+   cd ~/.claude/plugins/marketplaces/thedotmack
+   npm install chromadb
+   ```
+
+3. Check chromadb health:
+   ```bash
+   npm run chroma:health
+   ```
+
+4. Windows-specific: Ensure Python is in PATH:
+   ```bash
+   where python
+   # Should show Python installation path
+   ```
+
+5. If Chroma continues to fail, hybrid search will gracefully degrade to SQLite FTS5 only
+
+### Smart Install Caching Issues (v5.0.3+)
+
+**Symptoms**: Dependencies not updating after plugin update, stale version marker.
+
+**Solutions**:
+
+1. Clear install cache:
+   ```bash
+   rm ~/.claude/plugins/marketplaces/thedotmack/.install-version
+   ```
+
+2. Force reinstall:
+   ```bash
+   cd ~/.claude/plugins/marketplaces/thedotmack
+   npm install --force
+   ```
+
+3. Check version marker:
+   ```bash
+   cat ~/.claude/plugins/marketplaces/thedotmack/.install-version
+   cat ~/.claude/plugins/marketplaces/thedotmack/package.json | grep version
+   ```
+
+4. Restart Claude Code after manual install
+
+### PM2 ENOENT Error on Windows (v5.1.1 Fix)
+
+**Symptoms**: Worker fails to start with "ENOENT" error on Windows.
+
+**Solutions**:
+
+1. This was fixed in v5.1.1 - update to latest version:
+   ```bash
+   /plugin update claude-mem
+   ```
+
+2. If still experiencing issues, verify PM2 path:
+   ```bash
+   cd ~/.claude/plugins/marketplaces/thedotmack
+   dir node_modules\.bin\pm2.cmd
+   ```
+
+3. Manual PM2 install if needed:
+   ```bash
+   npm install pm2@latest
+   ```
+

 Use get_recent_context to show me what we've been working on
 ```

+### get_context_timeline
+
+Get a unified timeline of context around a specific point in time. This tool interleaves observations, sessions, and user prompts chronologically to show what was happening before and after a specific moment.
+
+**Anchor by observation ID:**
+```
+get_context_timeline with anchor=12345 and depth_before=10 and depth_after=10
+```
+
+**Anchor by session ID:**
+```
+get_context_timeline with anchor="S123" and depth_before=5 and depth_after=5
+```
+
+**Anchor by ISO timestamp:**
+```
+get_context_timeline with anchor="2025-10-21T14:30:00Z" and depth_before=15 and depth_after=15
+```
+
+**Use cases:**
+- Understand what was happening when a specific observation occurred
+- See the full context around a bug fix or decision
+- Trace the events leading up to and following a specific change
+- View chronological sequence of related work
+
+**Benefits:**
+- All record types (observations, sessions, prompts) in one chronological view
+- Configurable depth before/after anchor point
+- Flexible anchoring by ID or timestamp
+- See the complete narrative arc around key events
+
+### get_timeline_by_query
+
+Search for observations using natural language and get timeline context around the best match. This combines search + timeline into a single operation for faster context discovery.
+
+**Auto mode (default):**
+```
+get_timeline_by_query with query="authentication implementation"
+```
+Automatically uses the top search result as timeline anchor and returns surrounding context.
+
+**Interactive mode:**
+```
+get_timeline_by_query with query="authentication" and mode="interactive" and limit=5
+```
+Shows top 5 search results for you to manually choose which to use as timeline anchor.
+
+**Customize timeline depth:**
+```
+get_timeline_by_query with query="bug fix" and depth_before=20 and depth_after=10
+```
+
+**Use cases:**
+- Quick context discovery: "What was happening when we implemented X?"
+- Investigate issues: Find a bug fix and see what led to it
+- Decision archaeology: Search for a decision and understand the context
+- Feature timeline: See the complete story of a feature implementation
+
+**Benefits:**
+- Single-step operation (no need to search, then timeline separately)
+- Auto mode provides instant context
+- Interactive mode gives you control over anchor selection
+- Natural language search makes it easy to find relevant moments
