chore: bump version to 7.3.8

fix(security): add localhost-only protection for admin endpoints
Adds middleware to restrict /api/admin/restart and /api/admin/shutdown to localhost-only access. This prevents DoS attacks when the worker service is bound to 0.0.0.0 for remote UI access. Implementation: - Created requireLocalhost middleware in middleware.ts - Applied to both admin endpoints - Checks client IP against localhost addresses (127.0.0.1, ::1, etc.) - Returns 403 Forbidden for non-localhost requests Addresses security concern raised in PR #368 with cleaner DRY approach. 🤖 Generated with [Claude Code](https://claude.com/claude-code) Co-Authored-By: Claude <noreply@anthropic.com>

Trigger phrases include 'morning report', 'github report', 'daily github summary', 'what's happening on github', or 'check my github status'. This agent should be used proactively when the user starts their day or explicitly asks for repository updates.\n\nExamples:\n- User: "get me my morning github report"\n  Assistant: "I'll use the github-morning-reporter agent to generate your comprehensive GitHub status report."\n  <uses Agent tool to invoke github-morning-reporter>\n\n- User: "what's new on my repos today?"\n  Assistant: "Let me pull together your GitHub morning report using the github-morning-reporter agent."\n  <uses Agent tool to invoke github-morning-reporter>\n\n- User: "show me my daily github summary"\n  Assistant: "I'll generate your daily GitHub summary using the github-morning-reporter agent."\n  <uses Agent tool to invoke github-morning-reporter>

+
+You are an elite GitHub project analyst specializing in delivering actionable morning reports for software development teams. Your expertise lies in synthesizing complex repository activity into clear, prioritized insights that help developers start their day with complete situational awareness.
+
+## Your Responsibilities
+
+1. **Fetch Comprehensive GitHub Data**: Use available tools to retrieve:
+   - Open issues across all relevant repositories
+   - Open pull requests with review status
+   - Recent comments, mentions, and @-references
+   - CI/CD status for active PRs
+   - Stale issues/PRs (no activity in 7+ days)
+
+2. **Intelligent Grouping and Deduplication**:
+   - Identify duplicate or highly similar issues by analyzing titles, descriptions, and labels
+   - Group related issues by theme, component, or subsystem
+   - Cluster PRs by feature area or dependency relationships
+   - Flag issues that may be addressing the same root cause
+   - Use semantic similarity, not just exact matches
+
+3. **Prioritization and Triage**:
+   - Highlight items requiring immediate attention (blocking issues, failed CI, requested reviews)
+   - Surface items awaiting your direct action (assigned to you, mentions, review requests)
+   - Identify stale items that may need follow-up or closure
+   - Note high-priority labels (P0, critical, security, etc.)
+
+4. **Contextual Analysis**:
+   - Summarize the current state of each PR (draft, ready for review, approved, changes requested)
+   - Identify PRs with merge conflicts or failing checks
+   - Note issues with recent activity spikes or community engagement
+   - Flag dependency updates or security advisories
+
+5. **Report Structure**:
+   Your report must follow this format:
+   
+   **MORNING GITHUB REPORT - [Date]**
+   
+   **🚨 REQUIRES YOUR ATTENTION**
+   - Items explicitly assigned to the user
+   - Review requests awaiting user's approval
+   - Mentions or direct questions
+   - Blocking/critical issues
+   
+   **📊 PULL REQUESTS ([count] open)**
+   - Group by: Ready to Merge | In Review | Draft | Needs Work
+   - For each PR: title, author, status, CI state, review count, age
+   - Highlight conflicts or failed checks
+   
+   **🐛 ISSUES ([count] open)**
+   - Group by: Priority | Component | Theme
+   - Mark potential duplicates clearly
+   - Note new issues (created in last 24h)
+   - Flag stale issues (no activity in 7+ days)
+   
+   **📈 ACTIVITY SUMMARY**
+   - New issues/PRs since yesterday
+   - Recently closed items
+   - Top contributors
+   - Trending topics or labels
+   
+   **💡 RECOMMENDED ACTIONS**
+   - Specific next steps based on the data
+   - Suggestions for cleanup (closing duplicates, merging ready PRs)
+   - Items to follow up on
+
+6. **Quality Standards**:
+   - Use clear, scannable formatting with emojis for visual hierarchy
+   - Include direct links to all referenced issues and PRs
+   - Keep summaries concise but informative (1-2 sentences per item)
+   - Use relative timestamps ("2 hours ago", "3 days old")
+   - Highlight actionable items with clear CTAs
+
+7. **Error Handling**:
+   - If repository access fails, explicitly state which repos couldn't be accessed
+   - If no issues/PRs exist, provide a positive "all clear" message
+   - If rate limits are hit, show partial results with a warning
+   - Always attempt to provide value even with incomplete data
+
+8. **Adaptive Scope**:
+   - If the user has access to multiple repositories, intelligently scope the report:
+     - Default to repositories with recent activity
+     - Allow user to specify repos if needed
+     - Group multi-repo items by repository
+   - Adjust detail level based on volume (more items = more concise summaries)
+
+## Output Expectations
+
+Your report should be:
+- **Comprehensive**: Cover all relevant activity without overwhelming detail
+- **Actionable**: Make it clear what needs attention and why
+- **Scannable**: Use formatting that allows quick visual parsing
+- **Contextual**: Provide enough background to make decisions
+- **Timely**: Focus on recent activity and current state
+
+When you cannot find specific data, state this explicitly rather than omitting sections. If the user's query is ambiguous (e.g., which repositories to scan), ask for clarification before proceeding.
+
+Always end with a summary line indicating the report's completeness (e.g., "Report complete: 3 repositories scanned, 12 issues, 5 PRs analyzed").

 **ALWAYS:**
- Update ALL FOUR files with matching version numbers
+- Update ALL THREE files with matching version numbers
 - Create git tag with format `vX.Y.Z`
 - Create GitHub release from the tag
 - Generate CHANGELOG.md from releases after creating release
 - Ask user if version type is unclear

 **NEVER:**

+- Update only one or two files
 - Skip the verification step
 - Forget to create git tag or GitHub release
- Add version history entries to CLAUDE.md (that's managed separately)

 ## Verification Checklist

 Before considering the task complete:
- [ ] All FOUR files have matching version numbers
+- [ ] All THREE files have matching version numbers
 - [ ] `npm run build` succeeds
 - [ ] Git commit created with all version files
 - [ ] Git tag created (format: vX.Y.Z)

+## [7.3.7] - 2025-12-17
+
+## Windows Platform Stabilization
+
+This patch release includes comprehensive improvements for Windows platform stability and reliability.
+
+### Key Improvements
+
+- **Worker Readiness Tracking**: Added `/api/readiness` endpoint with MCP/SDK initialization flags to prevent premature connection attempts
+- **Process Tree Cleanup**: Implemented recursive process enumeration on Windows to prevent zombie socket processes  
+- **Bun Runtime Migration**: Migrated worker wrapper from Node.js to Bun for consistency and reliability
+- **Centralized Project Name Utility**: Consolidated duplicate project name extraction logic with Windows drive root handling
+- **Enhanced Error Messages**: Added platform-aware logging and detailed Windows troubleshooting guidance
+- **Subprocess Console Hiding**: Standardized `windowsHide: true` across all child process spawns to prevent console window flashing
+
+### Technical Details
+
+- Worker service tracks MCP and SDK readiness states separately
+- ChromaSync service properly tracks subprocess PIDs for Windows cleanup
+- Worker wrapper uses Bun runtime with enhanced socket cleanup via process tree enumeration
+- Increased timeouts on Windows platform (30s worker startup, 10s hook timeouts)
+- Logger utility includes platform and PID information for better debugging
+
+This represents a major reliability improvement for Windows users, eliminating common issues with worker startup failures, orphaned processes, and zombie sockets.

+
+## [7.3.3] - 2025-12-16
+
+## What's Changed
+
+- Remove all better-sqlite3 references from codebase (#357)
+
+**Full Changelog**: https://github.com/thedotmack/claude-mem/compare/v7.3.2...v7.3.3
+
+## [7.3.2] - 2025-12-16
+
+## 🪟 Windows Console Fix
+
+Fixes blank console windows appearing for Windows 11 users during claude-mem operations.
+
+### What Changed
+
+- **Windows**: Uses PowerShell `Start-Process -WindowStyle Hidden` to properly hide worker process
+- **Security**: Added PowerShell string escaping to follow security best practices
+- **Unix/Mac**: No changes (continues to work as before)
+
+### Root Cause
+
+The issue was caused by a Node.js limitation where `windowsHide: true` doesn't work with `detached: true` in `child_process.spawn()`. This affects both Bun and Node.js since Bun inherits Node.js process spawning semantics.
+
+See: https://github.com/nodejs/node/issues/21825
+
+### Security Note
+
+While all paths in the PowerShell command are application-controlled (not user input), we've added proper escaping to follow security best practices. If an attacker could modify bun installation paths or plugin directories, they would already have full filesystem access including the database.
+
+### Related
+
+- Fixes #304 (Multiple visible console windows)
+- Merged PR #339
+- Testing documented in PR #315
+
+### Breaking Changes
+
+None - fully backward compatible.

+
+## [7.3.1] - 2025-12-16
+
+## 🐛 Bug Fixes
+
+### Pending Messages Cleanup (Issue #353)
+
+Fixed unbounded database growth in the `pending_messages` table by implementing proper cleanup logic:
+
+- **Content Clearing**: `markProcessed()` now clears `tool_input` and `tool_response` when marking messages as processed, preventing duplicate storage of transcript data that's already saved in observations
+- **Count-Based Retention**: `cleanupProcessed()` now keeps only the 100 most recent processed messages for UI display, deleting older ones automatically
+- **Automatic Cleanup**: Cleanup runs automatically after processing messages in `SDKAgent.processSDKResponse()`
+
+### What This Fixes
+
+- Prevents database from growing unbounded with duplicate transcript content
+- Keeps metadata (tool_name, status, timestamps) for recent messages
+- Maintains UI functionality while optimizing storage
+
+### Technical Details
+
+**Files Modified:**
+- `src/services/sqlite/PendingMessageStore.ts` - Cleanup logic implementation
+- `src/services/worker/SDKAgent.ts` - Periodic cleanup calls
+
+**Database Behavior:**
+- Pending/processing messages: Keep full transcript data (needed for processing)
+- Processed messages: Clear transcript, keep metadata only (observations already saved)
+- Retention: Last 100 processed messages for UI feedback
+
+### Related
+
+- Fixes #353 - Observations not being saved
+- Part of the pending messages persistence feature (from PR #335)

+
+## [7.3.0] - 2025-12-16
+
+## Features
+
+- **Table-based search output**: Unified timeline formatting with cleaner, more organized presentation of search results grouped by date and file
+- **Simplified API**: Removed unused format parameter from MCP search tools for cleaner interface
+- **Shared formatting utilities**: Extracted common timeline formatting logic into reusable module
+- **Batch observations endpoint**: Added `/api/observations/batch` endpoint for efficient retrieval of multiple observations by ID array
+
+## Changes
+
+- **Default model upgrade**: Changed default model from Haiku to Sonnet for better observation quality
+- **Removed fake URIs**: Replaced claude-mem:// pseudo-protocol with actual HTTP API endpoints for citations
+
+## Bug Fixes
+
+- Fixed undefined debug function calls in MCP server
+- Fixed skillPath variable scoping bug in instructions endpoint
+- Extracted magic numbers to named constants for better code maintainability

+**Full Changelog**: https://github.com/thedotmack/claude-mem/compare/v7.2.4...v7.3.0
+
+## [7.2.4] - 2025-12-15
+
+## What's Changed
+
+### Documentation
+- Updated endless mode setup instructions with improved configuration guidance for better user experience
+
+**Full Changelog**: https://github.com/thedotmack/claude-mem/compare/v7.2.3...v7.2.4
+
+## [7.2.3] - 2025-12-15
+
+## Bug Fixes
+
+- **Fix MCP server failures on plugin updates**: Add 2-second pre-restart delay in `ensureWorkerVersionMatches()` to give files time to sync before killing the old worker. This prevents the race condition where the worker restart happened too quickly after plugin file updates, causing "Worker service connection failed" errors.
+
+## Changes
+
+- Add `PRE_RESTART_SETTLE_DELAY` constant (2000ms) to `hook-constants.ts`
+- Add delay before `ProcessManager.restart()` call in `worker-utils.ts`
+- Fix pre-existing bug where `port` variable was undefined in error logging
+
+## [7.2.2] - 2025-12-15
+
+## Changes
+
+- **Refactor:** Consolidate mem-search skill, remove desktop-skill duplication
+  - Delete separate `desktop-skill/` directory (was outdated)
+  - Generate `mem-search.zip` during build from `plugin/skills/mem-search/`
+  - Update docs with correct MCP tool list and new download path
+  - Single source of truth for Claude Desktop skill
+
+## [7.2.1] - 2025-12-14
+
+## Translation Script Enhancements

+
+## [7.1.15] - 2025-12-14
+
+## 🐛 Bug Fixes
+
+**Worker Service Initialization**
+- Fixed 404 error on `/api/context/inject` during worker startup
+- Route is now registered immediately instead of after database initialization
+- Prevents race condition on fresh installs and restarts
+- Added integration test for early context inject route access
+
+## Technical Details
+
+The context hook was failing with `Cannot GET /api/context/inject` because the route was registered only after database initialization completed. This created a race condition where the hook could attempt to access the endpoint before it existed.
+
+**Implementation:**
+- Added `initializationComplete` Promise to track async background initialization
+- Register `/api/context/inject` route immediately in `setupRoutes()`
+- Early handler blocks requests until initialization resolves (30s timeout)
+- Route handler duplicates logic from `SearchRoutes.handleContextInject` by design to prevent 404s
+
+**Testing:**
+- Added integration test verifying route registration and timeout handling
+
+Fixes #305
+Related: PR #310
+
+## [7.1.14] - 2025-12-14
+
+## Enhanced Error Handling & Logging
+
+This patch release improves error message quality and logging across the claude-mem system.
+
+### Error Message Improvements
+
+**Standardized Hook Error Handling**
+- Created shared error handlers (`handleFetchError`, `handleWorkerError`) for consistent error messages
+- Platform-aware restart instructions (macOS, Linux, Windows) with correct commands
+- Migrated all hooks (context, new, save, summary) to use standardized handlers
+- Enhanced error logging with actionable context before throwing restart instructions
+
+**ChromaSync Error Standardization**
+- Consistent client initialization checks across all methods
+- Enhanced error messages with troubleshooting steps and restart instructions
+- Better context about which operation failed
+
+**Worker Service Improvements**
+- Enhanced version endpoint error logging with status codes and response text
+- Improved worker restart error messages with PM2 commands
+- Better context in all worker-related error scenarios
+
+### Bug Fixes
+
+- **Issue #260**: Fixed `happy_path_error__with_fallback` misuse in save-hook causing false "Missing cwd" errors
+- Removed unnecessary `happy_path_error` calls from SDKAgent that were masking real error messages
+- Cleaned up migration logging to use `console.log` instead of `console.error` for non-error events
+
+### Logging Improvements
+
+**Timezone-Aware Timestamps**
+- Worker logs now use local machine timezone instead of UTC
+- Maintains same format (`YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM:SS.mmm`) but reflects local time
+- Easier debugging and log correlation with system events
+- Enhanced worker-cli logging output format
+
+### Test Coverage
+
+Added comprehensive test suites:
+- `tests/error-handling/hook-error-logging.test.ts` - 12 tests for hook error handler behavior
+- `tests/services/chroma-sync-errors.test.ts` - ChromaSync error message consistency
+- `tests/integration/hook-execution-environments.test.ts` - Bun PATH resolution across shells
+- `docs/context/TEST_AUDIT_2025-12-13.md` - Comprehensive audit report

+## [7.1.13] - 2025-12-14
+
+## Enhanced Error Handling & Logging
+
+This patch release improves error message quality and logging across the claude-mem system.
+
+### Error Message Improvements
+
+**Standardized Hook Error Handling**
+- Created shared error handlers (`handleFetchError`, `handleWorkerError`) for consistent error messages
+- Platform-aware restart instructions (macOS, Linux, Windows) with correct commands
+- Migrated all hooks (context, new, save, summary) to use standardized handlers
+- Enhanced error logging with actionable context before throwing restart instructions
+
+**ChromaSync Error Standardization**
+- Consistent client initialization checks across all methods
+- Enhanced error messages with troubleshooting steps and restart instructions
+- Better context about which operation failed
+
+**Worker Service Improvements**
+- Enhanced version endpoint error logging with status codes and response text
+- Improved worker restart error messages with PM2 commands
+- Better context in all worker-related error scenarios
+
+### Bug Fixes
+
+- **Issue #260**: Fixed `happy_path_error__with_fallback` misuse in save-hook causing false "Missing cwd" errors
+- Removed unnecessary `happy_path_error` calls from SDKAgent that were masking real error messages
+- Cleaned up migration logging to use `console.log` instead of `console.error` for non-error events
+
+### Logging Improvements
+
+**Timezone-Aware Timestamps**
+- Worker logs now use local machine timezone instead of UTC
+- Maintains same format (`YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM:SS.mmm`) but reflects local time
+- Easier debugging and log correlation with system events
+
+### Test Coverage
+
+Added comprehensive test suites:
+- `tests/error-handling/hook-error-logging.test.ts` - 12 tests for hook error handler behavior
+- `tests/services/chroma-sync-errors.test.ts` - ChromaSync error message consistency
+- `tests/integration/hook-execution-environments.test.ts` - Bun PATH resolution across shells
+- `docs/context/TEST_AUDIT_2025-12-13.md` - Comprehensive audit report

+
+## [7.1.12] - 2025-12-14
+
+## What's Fixed
+
+- **Fix data directory creation**: Ensure `~/.claude-mem/` directory exists before writing PM2 migration marker file
+  - Fixes ENOENT errors on first-time installation (issue #259)
+  - Adds `mkdirSync(dataDir, { recursive: true })` in `startWorker()` before marker file write
+  - Resolves Windows installation failures introduced in f923c0c and exposed in 5d4e71d
+
+## Changes
+
+- Added directory creation check in `src/shared/worker-utils.ts`
+- All 52 tests passing

+
+## [7.1.11] - 2025-12-14
+
+## What's Changed
+
+**Refactor: Simplified hook execution by removing bun-wrapper indirection**
+
+Hooks are compiled to standard JavaScript and work perfectly with Node. The bun-wrapper was solving a problem that doesn't exist - hooks don't use Bun-specific APIs, they're just HTTP clients to the worker service.
+
+**Benefits:**
+- Removes ~100 lines of code
+- Simpler cross-platform support (especially Windows)
+- No PATH resolution needed for hooks
+- Worker still uses Bun where performance matters
+- Follows YAGNI and Simple First principles
+
+**Fixes:**
+- Fish shell compatibility issue (#264)
+
+**Full Changelog:** https://github.com/thedotmack/claude-mem/compare/v7.1.10...v7.1.11
+
+## [7.1.10] - 2025-12-14
+
+## Enhancement
+
+This release adds automatic orphan cleanup to complement the process leak fix from v7.1.9.
+
+### Added
+
+- **Auto-Cleanup on Startup**: Worker now automatically detects and kills orphaned chroma-mcp processes before starting
+  - Scans for existing chroma-mcp processes on worker 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 without manual intervention
+- Ensures clean slate on every worker restart
+- Prevents accumulation even if v7.1.9's close() method fails
+- No user action required - works transparently
+
+### Example Logs
+
+```
+[INFO] [SYSTEM] Cleaning up orphaned chroma-mcp processes {count=2, pids=33753,33750}
+[INFO] [SYSTEM] Orphaned processes cleaned up {count=2}
+```
+
+### Recommendation
+
+Upgrade from v7.1.9 to get automatic orphan cleanup. Combined with v7.1.9's proper subprocess cleanup, this provides comprehensive protection against process leaks.
+
+---
+
+**Full Changelog**: https://github.com/thedotmack/claude-mem/compare/v7.1.9...v7.1.10
+
+## [7.1.9] - 2025-12-14
+
+## Critical Bugfix
+
+This patch release fixes a critical memory leak that caused chroma-mcp processes to accumulate with each worker restart, leading to memory exhaustion and silent backfill failures.
+
+### Fixed
+
+- **Process Leak Prevention**: ChromaSync now properly cleans up chroma-mcp subprocesses when the worker is restarted
+  - Store reference to StdioClientTransport subprocess
+  - Explicitly close transport to kill subprocess on shutdown
+  - Add error handling to ensure cleanup even on failures
+  - Reset all state in finally block
+
+### Impact
+
+- Eliminates process accumulation (16+ orphaned processes seen in production)
+- Prevents memory exhaustion from leaked subprocesses (900MB+ RAM usage)
+- Fixes silent backfill failures caused by OOM kills
+- Ensures graceful cleanup on worker shutdown
+
+### Recommendation
+
+**All users should upgrade immediately** to prevent memory leaks and ensure reliable backfill operation.

+
+## [7.1.8] - 2025-12-13
+
+## Memory Export/Import Scripts
+
+Added portable memory export and import functionality with automatic duplicate prevention.
+
+### New Features
+- **Export memories** to JSON format with search filtering and project-based filtering
+- **Import memories** with automatic duplicate detection via composite keys
+- Complete documentation in docs/public/usage/export-import.mdx
+
+### Use Cases
+- Share memory sets between developers working on the same project
+- Backup and restore specific project memories
+- Collaborate on domain knowledge across teams
+- Migrate memories between different claude-mem installations
+
+### Example Usage
+```bash
+# Export Windows-related memories
+npx tsx scripts/export-memories.ts "windows" windows-work.json
+
+# Export only claude-mem project memories
+npx tsx scripts/export-memories.ts "bugfix" fixes.json --project=claude-mem
+
+# Import memories (with automatic duplicate prevention)
+npx tsx scripts/import-memories.ts windows-work.json
+```
+
+### Technical Improvements
+- Fixed JSON format response in /api/search endpoint for consistent structure
+- Enhanced project filtering in ChromaDB hybrid search result hydration
+- Duplicate detection using composite keys (session ID + title + timestamp)
+
+## [7.1.7] - 2025-12-13
+
+## Fixed
+- Removed Windows workaround that was causing libuv assertion failures
+- Prioritized stability over cosmetic console window issue
+
+## Known Issue
+- On Windows, a console window may briefly appear when the worker starts (cosmetic only, does not affect functionality)
+
+**Full Changelog**: https://github.com/thedotmack/claude-mem/compare/v7.1.6...v7.1.7
+
+## [7.1.6] - 2025-12-13

+## What's Changed
+
+* fix: Use getWorkerHost() instead of hardcoded localhost in MCP server (#276)
+
+### Bug Fix
+Fixes Windows IPv6 issue where `localhost` resolves to `::1` (IPv6) but worker binds to `127.0.0.1` (IPv4), causing MCP tool connections to fail.
+

+
+* fix: add npm fallback when bun install fails with alias packages (#265)
+
+**Full Changelog**: https://github.com/thedotmack/claude-mem/compare/v7.1.3...v7.1.4
+
+## [7.1.3] - 2025-12-13
+
+## Bug Fixes
+
+### Smart Install Script Refactoring
+
+Refactored the smart-install.js script to improve code quality and maintainability:
+- Extracted common installation paths as top-level constants (BUN_COMMON_PATHS, UV_COMMON_PATHS)
+- Simplified installation check functions to delegate to dedicated path-finding helpers
+- Streamlined installation verification logic with clearer error messages
+- Removed redundant post-installation verification checks
+- Improved error propagation by removing unnecessary retry logic
+
+This refactoring reduces code duplication and makes the installation process more maintainable while preserving the same functionality for detecting Bun and uv binaries across platforms.
+
+## [7.1.2] - 2025-12-13
+
+## 🐛 Bug Fixes
+
+### Windows Installation
+- Fixed Bun PATH detection on Windows after fresh install
+- Added fallback to check common install paths before PATH reload  
+- Improved smart-install.js to use full Bun path when not in PATH
+- Added proper path quoting for Windows usernames with spaces
+
+### Worker Startup
+- Fixed worker connection failures in Stop hook
+- Added health check retry loop (5 attempts, 500ms intervals)
+- Worker now waits up to 2.5s for responsiveness before returning
+- Improved error detection for Bun's ConnectionRefused error format
+

+
+**Full Changelog**: https://github.com/thedotmack/claude-mem/compare/v7.1.1...v7.1.2
+
+## [7.1.1] - 2025-12-13
+
+## 🚨 Critical Fixes
+
+### Windows 11 Bun Auto-Install Fixed
+- **Problem**: v7.1.0 had a chicken-and-egg bug where `bun smart-install.js` failed if Bun wasn't installed
+- **Solution**: SessionStart hook now uses `node` (always available) for smart-install.js
+- **Impact**: Fresh Windows installations now work out-of-box
+
+### Path Quoting for Windows
+- Fixed `hooks.json` to quote all paths
+- Prevents SyntaxError for usernames with spaces (e.g., "C:\Users\John Doe\")
+
+## ✨ New Feature
+
+### Automatic Worker Restart on Version Updates
+- Worker now automatically restarts when plugin version changes
+- No more manual `npm run worker:restart` needed after upgrades
+- Eliminates connection errors from running old worker code
+
+## 📝 Notes
+
+- **No manual actions required** - worker auto-restarts on next session start
+- All future upgrades will automatically restart the worker
+- Fresh installs on Windows 11 work correctly

+
+## [7.1.0] - 2025-12-13
+
+## Major Architectural Migration
+
+This release completely replaces PM2 with native Bun-based process management and migrates from better-sqlite3 to bun:sqlite.
+
+### Key Changes
+
+**Process Management**
+- Replace PM2 with custom Bun-based ProcessManager
+- PID file-based process tracking
+- Automatic legacy PM2 process cleanup on all platforms
+
+**Database Driver**
+- Migrate from better-sqlite3 npm package to bun:sqlite runtime module
+- Zero native compilation required
+- Same API compatibility
+
+**Auto-Installation**
+- Bun runtime auto-installed if missing
+- uv (Python package manager) auto-installed for Chroma vector search
+- Smart installer with platform-specific methods (curl/PowerShell)
+
+### Migration
+
+**Automatic**: First hook trigger after update performs one-time PM2 cleanup and transitions to new architecture. No user action required.
+
+### Documentation
+
+Complete technical documentation in `docs/PM2-TO-BUN-MIGRATION.md`
+
+## [7.0.11] - 2025-12-12
+
+Patch release adding feature/bun-executable to experimental branch selector for testing Bun runtime integration.
+
+## [7.0.9] - 2025-12-10
+
+## Bug Fixes
+
+- Fixed MCP response format in search route handlers - all 14 search endpoints now return complete response objects with error status instead of just content arrays, restoring MCP protocol compatibility
+
+## Changes
+
+- `SearchRoutes.ts`: Updated all route handlers to return full result object instead of extracted content property
+
+## [7.0.8] - 2025-12-10
+
+## Bug Fixes
+
+- **Critical**: Filter out meta-observations for session-memory files to prevent recursive timeline pollution
+  - Memory agent was creating observations about editing Agent SDK's session-memory/summary.md files
+  - This created a recursive loop where investigating timeline pollution caused more pollution
+  - Filter now skips Edit/Write/Read/NotebookEdit operations on any file path containing 'session-memory'
+  - Eliminates 91+ meta-observations that were polluting the timeline
+
+## Technical Details
+
+Added filtering logic in SessionRoutes.ts to detect and skip file operations on session-memory files before observations are queued to the SDK agent. This prevents the memory agent from observing its own observation metadata files.
+
+## [7.0.7] - 2025-12-10
+
+## What's Changed
+
+### Code Quality Improvements
+- Refactored hooks codebase to reduce complexity and improve maintainability (#204)
+- Net reduction of 78 lines while adding new functionality
+- Improved type safety across all hook input interfaces
+
+### New Features
+- Added `CLAUDE_MEM_SKIP_TOOLS` configuration setting for controlling which tools are excluded from observations
+- Default skip tools: `ListMcpResourcesTool`, `SlashCommand`, `Skill`, `TodoWrite`, `AskUserQuestion`
+
+### Technical Improvements
+- Created shared utilities: `transcript-parser.ts`, `hook-constants.ts`, `hook-error-handler.ts`
+- Migrated business logic from hooks to worker service for better separation of concerns
+- Enhanced error handling and spinner management

+## Pro Features Architecture
+
+Claude-mem is designed with a clean separation between open-source core functionality and optional Pro features.
+
+**Open-Source Core** (this repository):
+
+- All worker API endpoints on localhost:37777 remain fully open and accessible
+- Pro features are headless - no proprietary UI elements in this codebase
+- Pro integration points are minimal: settings for license keys, tunnel provisioning logic
+- The architecture ensures Pro features extend rather than replace core functionality
+
+**Pro Features** (coming soon, external):
+
+- Enhanced UI (Memory Stream) connects to the same localhost:37777 endpoints as the open viewer
+- Additional features like advanced filtering, timeline scrubbing, and search tools
+- Access gated by license validation, not by modifying core endpoints
+- Users without Pro licenses continue using the full open-source viewer UI without limitation
+
+This architecture preserves the open-source nature of the project while enabling sustainable development through optional paid features.

+# TypeScript SDK V2 interface (preview)
+
+Preview of the simplified V2 TypeScript Agent SDK, with session-based send/receive patterns for multi-turn conversations.
+
+---
+
+<Warning>
+The V2 interface is an **unstable preview**. APIs may change based on feedback before becoming stable. Some features like session forking are only available in the [V1 SDK](/docs/en/agent-sdk/typescript).
+</Warning>
+
+The V2 Claude Agent TypeScript SDK removes the need for async generators and yield coordination. This makes multi-turn conversations simpler—instead of managing generator state across turns, each turn is a separate `send()`/`receive()` cycle. The API surface reduces to three concepts:
+
+- `createSession()` / `resumeSession()`: Start or continue a conversation
+- `session.send()`: Send a message
+- `session.receive()`: Get the response
+
+## Installation
+
+The V2 interface is included in the existing SDK package:
+
+```bash
+npm install @anthropic-ai/claude-agent-sdk
+```
+
+## Quick start
+
+### One-shot prompt
+
+For simple single-turn queries where you don't need to maintain a session, use `unstable_v2_prompt()`. This example sends a math question and logs the answer:
+
+```typescript
+import { unstable_v2_prompt } from '@anthropic-ai/claude-agent-sdk'
+
+const result = await unstable_v2_prompt('What is 2 + 2?', {
+  model: 'claude-sonnet-4-5-20250929'
+})
+console.log(result.result)
+```
+
+<details>
+<summary>See the same operation in V1</summary>
+
+```typescript
+import { query } from '@anthropic-ai/claude-agent-sdk'
+
+const q = query({
+  prompt: 'What is 2 + 2?',
+  options: { model: 'claude-sonnet-4-5-20250929' }
+})
+
+for await (const msg of q) {
+  if (msg.type === 'result') {
+    console.log(msg.result)
+  }
+}
+```
+
+</details>
+
+### Basic session
+
+For interactions beyond a single prompt, create a session. V2 separates sending and receiving into distinct steps:
+- `send()` dispatches your message
+- `receive()` streams back the response
+
+This explicit separation makes it easier to add logic between turns (like processing responses before sending follow-ups).
+
+The example below creates a session, sends "Hello!" to Claude, and prints the text response. It uses [`await using`](https://www.typescriptlang.org/docs/handbook/release-notes/typescript-5-2.html#using-declarations-and-explicit-resource-management) (TypeScript 5.2+) to automatically close the session when the block exits. You can also call `session.close()` manually.
+
+```typescript
+import { unstable_v2_createSession } from '@anthropic-ai/claude-agent-sdk'
+
+await using session = unstable_v2_createSession({
+  model: 'claude-sonnet-4-5-20250929'
+})
+
+await session.send('Hello!')
+for await (const msg of session.receive()) {
+  // Filter for assistant messages to get human-readable output
+  if (msg.type === 'assistant') {
+    const text = msg.message.content
+      .filter(block => block.type === 'text')
+      .map(block => block.text)
+      .join('')
+    console.log(text)
+  }
+}
+```
+
+<details>
+<summary>See the same operation in V1</summary>
+
+In V1, both input and output flow through a single async generator. For a basic prompt this looks similar, but adding multi-turn logic requires restructuring to use an input generator.
+
+```typescript
+import { query } from '@anthropic-ai/claude-agent-sdk'
+
+const q = query({
+  prompt: 'Hello!',
+  options: { model: 'claude-sonnet-4-5-20250929' }
+})
+
+for await (const msg of q) {
+  if (msg.type === 'assistant') {
+    const text = msg.message.content
+      .filter(block => block.type === 'text')
+      .map(block => block.text)
+      .join('')
+    console.log(text)
+  }
+}
+```
+
+</details>
+
+### Multi-turn conversation
+
+Sessions persist context across multiple exchanges. To continue a conversation, call `send()` again on the same session. Claude remembers the previous turns.
+
+This example asks a math question, then asks a follow-up that references the previous answer:
+
+```typescript
+import { unstable_v2_createSession } from '@anthropic-ai/claude-agent-sdk'
+
+await using session = unstable_v2_createSession({
+  model: 'claude-sonnet-4-5-20250929'
+})
+
+// Turn 1
+await session.send('What is 5 + 3?')
+for await (const msg of session.receive()) {
+  // Filter for assistant messages to get human-readable output
+  if (msg.type === 'assistant') {
+    const text = msg.message.content
+      .filter(block => block.type === 'text')
+      .map(block => block.text)
+      .join('')
+    console.log(text)
+  }
+}
+
+// Turn 2
+await session.send('Multiply that by 2')
+for await (const msg of session.receive()) {
+  if (msg.type === 'assistant') {
+    const text = msg.message.content
+      .filter(block => block.type === 'text')
+      .map(block => block.text)
+      .join('')
+    console.log(text)
+  }
+}
+```
+
+<details>
+<summary>See the same operation in V1</summary>
+
+```typescript
+import { query } from '@anthropic-ai/claude-agent-sdk'
+
+// Must create an async iterable to feed messages
+async function* createInputStream() {
+  yield {
+    type: 'user',
+    session_id: '',
+    message: { role: 'user', content: [{ type: 'text', text: 'What is 5 + 3?' }] },
+    parent_tool_use_id: null
+  }
+  // Must coordinate when to yield next message
+  yield {
+    type: 'user',
+    session_id: '',
+    message: { role: 'user', content: [{ type: 'text', text: 'Multiply by 2' }] },
+    parent_tool_use_id: null
+  }
+}
+
+const q = query({
+  prompt: createInputStream(),
+  options: { model: 'claude-sonnet-4-5-20250929' }
+})
+
+for await (const msg of q) {
+  if (msg.type === 'assistant') {
+    const text = msg.message.content
+      .filter(block => block.type === 'text')
+      .map(block => block.text)
+      .join('')
+    console.log(text)
+  }
+}
+```
+
+</details>
+
+### Session resume
+
+If you have a session ID from a previous interaction, you can resume it later. This is useful for long-running workflows or when you need to persist conversations across application restarts.
+
+This example creates a session, stores its ID, closes it, then resumes the conversation:
+
+```typescript
+import {
+  unstable_v2_createSession,
+  unstable_v2_resumeSession,
+  type SDKMessage
+} from '@anthropic-ai/claude-agent-sdk'
+
+// Helper to extract text from assistant messages
+function getAssistantText(msg: SDKMessage): string | null {
+  if (msg.type !== 'assistant') return null
+  return msg.message.content
+    .filter(block => block.type === 'text')
+    .map(block => block.text)
+    .join('')
+}
+
+// Create initial session and have a conversation
+const session = unstable_v2_createSession({
+  model: 'claude-sonnet-4-5-20250929'
+})
+
+await session.send('Remember this number: 42')
+
+// Get the session ID from any received message
+let sessionId: string | undefined
+for await (const msg of session.receive()) {
+  sessionId = msg.session_id
+  const text = getAssistantText(msg)
+  if (text) console.log('Initial response:', text)
+}
+
+console.log('Session ID:', sessionId)
+session.close()
+
+// Later: resume the session using the stored ID
+await using resumedSession = unstable_v2_resumeSession(sessionId!, {
+  model: 'claude-sonnet-4-5-20250929'
+})
+
+await resumedSession.send('What number did I ask you to remember?')
+for await (const msg of resumedSession.receive()) {
+  const text = getAssistantText(msg)
+  if (text) console.log('Resumed response:', text)
+}
+```
+
+<details>
+<summary>See the same operation in V1</summary>
+
+```typescript
+import { query } from '@anthropic-ai/claude-agent-sdk'
+
+// Create initial session
+const initialQuery = query({
+  prompt: 'Remember this number: 42',
+  options: { model: 'claude-sonnet-4-5-20250929' }
+})
+
+// Get session ID from any message
+let sessionId: string | undefined
+for await (const msg of initialQuery) {
+  sessionId = msg.session_id
+  if (msg.type === 'assistant') {
+    const text = msg.message.content
+      .filter(block => block.type === 'text')
+      .map(block => block.text)
+      .join('')
+    console.log('Initial response:', text)
+  }
+}
+
+console.log('Session ID:', sessionId)
+
+// Later: resume the session
+const resumedQuery = query({
+  prompt: 'What number did I ask you to remember?',
+  options: {
+    model: 'claude-sonnet-4-5-20250929',
+    resume: sessionId
+  }
+})
+
+for await (const msg of resumedQuery) {
+  if (msg.type === 'assistant') {
+    const text = msg.message.content
+      .filter(block => block.type === 'text')
+      .map(block => block.text)
+      .join('')
+    console.log('Resumed response:', text)
+  }
+}
+```
+
+</details>
+
+### Cleanup
+
+Sessions can be closed manually or automatically using [`await using`](https://www.typescriptlang.org/docs/handbook/release-notes/typescript-5-2.html#using-declarations-and-explicit-resource-management), a TypeScript 5.2+ feature for automatic resource cleanup. If you're using an older TypeScript version or encounter compatibility issues, use manual cleanup instead.
+
+**Automatic cleanup (TypeScript 5.2+):**
+
+```typescript
+import { unstable_v2_createSession } from '@anthropic-ai/claude-agent-sdk'
+
+await using session = unstable_v2_createSession({
+  model: 'claude-sonnet-4-5-20250929'
+})
+// Session closes automatically when the block exits
+```
+
+**Manual cleanup:**
+
+```typescript
+import { unstable_v2_createSession } from '@anthropic-ai/claude-agent-sdk'
+
+const session = unstable_v2_createSession({
+  model: 'claude-sonnet-4-5-20250929'
+})
+// ... use the session ...
+session.close()
+```
+
+## API reference
+
+### `unstable_v2_createSession()`

-# Dual-Tag System Architecture
-
-**Date**: 2025-11-30
-**Branch**: `feature/meta-observation-control`
-**Status**: Implemented
-**Based on**: PR #105 dual-tag system
-
-## Overview
-
-The dual-tag system provides fine-grained control over what content gets persisted in claude-mem's observation database. It uses an edge processing pattern to filter tagged content at the hook layer before it reaches the worker service.
-
-## The Two Tags
-
-### Tag 1: `<private>`
-**Purpose**: User-controlled privacy
-**Status**: User-facing feature (documented)
-**Use case**: Users wrap content they don't want persisted
-
-```xml
-<private>
-This content won't be stored in observations
-</private>
-```
-
-**Examples**:
- Sensitive information (API keys, credentials, internal URLs)
- Temporary context (deadlines, personal notes)
- Debug output (logs, stack traces)
- Exploratory prompts (brainstorming, hypotheticals)
-
-### Tag 2: `<claude-mem-context>`
-**Purpose**: System-level meta-observation control
-**Status**: Infrastructure-ready (not user-facing yet)
-**Use case**: Prevents recursive storage when real-time context injection is active
-
-```xml
-<claude-mem-context>
-# Relevant Context from Past Sessions
-
-[Auto-injected past observations...]
-</claude-mem-context>
-```
-
-**Context**: This tag is used by the real-time context injection feature (not yet shipped). When past observations are injected into new prompts, they're wrapped in this tag to prevent them from being re-stored as new observations (recursive storage problem).
-
-## Architecture Pattern: Edge Processing
-
-**Principle**: "Process at edge, send clean data to server"
-
-The dual-tag system follows the edge processing pattern from hooks-in-composition:
-
-```text
-UserPrompt → [Hook Layer] → Worker → Database
-                    ↑
-              Filter here
-        (strip tags at edge)
-```
-
-### Data Flow
-
-**Without Filtering** (broken):
-```
-UserPrompt with <private> → PostToolUse hook → Worker → Memory Agent → Database
-                                                                         ↓
-                                                                  Private content stored
-```
-
-**With Edge Processing** (correct):
-```
-UserPrompt with <private> → PostToolUse hook → stripMemoryTags() → Worker → Memory Agent → Database
-                                         ↑                                                    ↓
-                                   Filter at edge                             Only clean data stored
-```
-
-## Implementation
-
-### File: `src/hooks/save-hook.ts`
-
-**Function Added** (lines 31-53):
-
-```typescript
-/**
- * Strip memory tags to prevent recursive storage and enable privacy control
- */
-function stripMemoryTags(content: string): string {
-  if (typeof content !== 'string') {
-    silentDebug('[save-hook] stripMemoryTags received non-string:', { type: typeof content });
-    return '{}';  // Safe default for JSON context
-  }
-
-  return content
-    .replace(/<claude-mem-context>[\s\S]*?<\/claude-mem-context>/g, '')
-    .replace(/<private>[\s\S]*?<\/private>/g, '')
-    .trim();
-}
-```
-
-**Application** (lines 95-100):
-
-```typescript
-tool_input: tool_input !== undefined
-  ? stripMemoryTags(JSON.stringify(tool_input))
-  : '{}',
-tool_response: tool_response !== undefined
-  ? stripMemoryTags(JSON.stringify(tool_response))
-  : '{}',
-```
-
-### File: `tests/strip-memory-tags.test.ts`
-
-**Test Coverage**: 19 tests across 4 categories:
-
-1. **Basic Functionality** (7 tests)
-   - Strip `<claude-mem-context>` tags
-   - Strip `<private>` tags
-   - Strip both tag types
-   - Handle nested tags
-   - Multiline content
-   - Multiple tags
-   - Empty results
-
-2. **Edge Cases** (5 tests)
-   - Malformed tags (unclosed)
-   - Tag-like strings (not actual tags)
-   - Very large content (10k+ chars)
-   - Whitespace trimming
-   - Strings without tags
-
-3. **Type Safety** (5 tests)
-   - Non-string inputs (number, null, undefined, object, array)
-   - All return safe default '{}'
-
-4. **Real-World Scenarios** (2 tests)
-   - JSON.stringify output
-   - Efficient large content handling
-
-**All tests passing** ✅ (19/19)
-
-## Design Decisions
-
-### 1. Always Active (No Configuration)
-
-**Decision**: Tag stripping is always on, no environment variable needed
-**Rationale**: Privacy and anti-recursion protection should be default, not opt-in
-
-### 2. Edge Processing (Not Worker-Level)
-
-**Decision**: Filter at hook layer before sending to worker
-**Rationale**:
- Keeps worker service simple
- Follows one-way data stream
- No worker changes needed
- Hook becomes a filter/gateway
-
-### 3. Defensive Coding with Silent Debug
-
-**Decision**: Handle non-string inputs with silentDebug, return safe default
-**Rationale**:
- Never block the agent (hooks-in-composition principle)
- Log issues for observability
- Safe fallback maintains system stability
-
-### 4. Both Tags Now (Progressive Enhancement)
-
-**Decision**: Implement both tags even though only `<private>` is user-facing
-**Rationale**:
- Infrastructure ready for real-time context feature
- No rework needed when context injection ships
- Same code path for both tags (simple)
- Progressive enhancement approach
-
-### 5. Regex-Based Stripping
-
-**Decision**: Use regex `/<tag>[\s\S]*?<\/tag>/g` instead of XML parser
-**Rationale**:
- No dependencies needed
- Handles multiline content (`[\s\S]*?`)
- Non-greedy (`*?`) prevents over-matching
- Global flag (`g`) handles multiple tags
- Good enough for this use case
-
-## Edge Cases Handled
-
-| Case | Input | Output | Why |
-|------|-------|--------|-----|
-| Nested tags | `<private>a <private>b</private> a</private>` | `` | Outer tag matches all |
-| Malformed | `<private>unclosed` | `<private>unclosed` | Regex requires closing tag |
-| Multiple | `<private>a</private> b <private>c</private>` | `b` | Global flag removes all |
-| Empty | `<private></private>` | `` | Matches and removes |
-| Tag-like | `<tag>not private</tag>` | `<tag>not private</tag>` | Different tag name |

-| Non-string | `123`, `null`, `{}` | `'{}'` | Defensive default |
-
-## Future Enhancements
-
-### 1. Real-Time Context Injection
-
-**Status**: Deferred (not in this PR)
-**When ready**: The `<claude-mem-context>` tag infrastructure is already in place
-
-The missing piece is in `src/hooks/new-hook.ts`:
- Select relevant observations from timeline
- Wrap in `<claude-mem-context>` tags
- Return via `hookSpecificOutput`
- Tag stripping already handles the rest
-
-### 2. System-Level Meta-Observation Tagging
-
-**Concept**: Auto-tag observations about observations
-**Examples**:
- Search skill results: `<claude-mem-context>[search results]</claude-mem-context>`
- Memory lookups: Fetched observations wrapped in tag
- Observation summaries: Meta-level analysis wrapped
-
-**Implementation**: Tools/skills that produce meta-observations can wrap output in `<claude-mem-context>` tags to prevent recursive storage.
-
-### 3. Additional Tag Types
-
-**Potential tags**:
- `<ephemeral>`: Content that should be seen but not stored (alias for `<private>`)
- `<debug>`: Debug output that should be logged but not persisted
- `<scratch>`: Thinking/planning content not meant for observations
-
-**Note**: Current implementation handles any tag you add to the regex. Adding new tags requires one line change in `stripMemoryTags()`.
-
-## Testing Strategy
-
-### Unit Tests
-```bash
-node --test tests/strip-memory-tags.test.ts
-```
-**Expected**: 19/19 passing ✅
-
-### Integration Tests
-
-**Test 1: Basic Privacy**
-```bash
-# Submit prompt with <private> tag
-# Query database: should not contain private content
-sqlite3 ~/.claude-mem/claude-mem.db "SELECT COUNT(*) FROM observations WHERE narrative LIKE '%<private>%';"
-# Expected: 0
-```
-
-**Test 2: Dual Tags**
-```bash
-# Submit prompt with both tags
-# Verify neither tag appears in database
-sqlite3 ~/.claude-mem/claude-mem.db "SELECT COUNT(*) FROM observations WHERE narrative LIKE '%<private>%' OR narrative LIKE '%<claude-mem-context>%';"
-# Expected: 0
-```
-
-**Test 3: Function Exists**
-```bash
-# Verify stripMemoryTags in built file
-grep -c "claude-mem-context.*private.*trim" ~/.claude/plugins/marketplaces/thedotmack/plugin/scripts/save-hook.js
-# Expected: 1
-```
-
-### Regression Tests
-
-**Ensure**:
- Normal observations still work (no tags broken)
- Worker service receives clean data
- No errors in `~/.claude-mem/silent.log`
- Tool executions still captured correctly
-
-## Known Limitations
-
-### 1. Tag Format is Fixed
-
-Tags must use exact XML-style format: `<tag>content</tag>`
-
-**Won't work**:
- `[private]content[/private]` (wrong syntax)
- `<!-- private -->content<!-- /private -->` (comment syntax)
- `{{private}}content{{/private}}` (curly braces)
-
-**Future**: Could add support for alternative formats if needed.
-
-### 2. Partial Tag Matching
-
-If user writes about tags without intending to use them:
-```
-I want to add a <private> tag feature to my app
-```
-
-This won't be stripped (no closing tag). But if they accidentally write:
-```
-I want to add a <private>tag</private> feature
-```
-
-"tag" gets stripped.
-
-**Mitigation**: Documentation educates users on proper usage.
-
-### 3. Performance with Very Large Content
-
-Regex performance is O(n) where n = content length.
-
-**Tested**: Works fine with 10,000 character strings
-**Unknown**: Performance with multi-megabyte tool responses
-
-**Mitigation**: Most tool I/O is small. If issues arise, could optimize with:
- Early exit if no '<' character found
- Streaming regex for very large content
- Size limits on stripMemoryTags input

+description: "Complete technical documentation for the process management and database driver migration in v7.1.0"
+---
+
+<Note>
+**Historical Migration Documentation**
+
+This document describes the PM2 to Bun migration that occurred in v7.1.0 (December 2025). If you're installing claude-mem for the first time, this migration has already been completed and you can use the current Bun-based system documented in the main guides.
+
+This documentation is preserved for users upgrading from versions older than v7.1.0.
+</Note>
+
+# PM2 to Bun Migration: Complete Technical Documentation
+
+**Version**: 7.1.0
+**Date**: December 2025
+**Migration Type**: Process Management (PM2 → Bun) + Database Driver (better-sqlite3 → bun:sqlite)
+
+## Executive Summary
+
+Claude-mem version 7.1.0 introduces two major architectural migrations:
+
+1. **Process Management**: PM2 → Custom Bun-based ProcessManager
+2. **Database Driver**: better-sqlite3 npm package → bun:sqlite runtime module
+
+Both migrations are **automatic** and **transparent** to end users. The first time a hook fires after updating to 7.1.0+, the system performs a one-time cleanup of legacy PM2 processes and transitions to the new architecture.
+
+### Key Benefits
+
+- **Simplified Dependencies**: Removes PM2 and better-sqlite3 npm packages
+- **Improved Cross-Platform Support**: Better Windows compatibility
+- **Faster Installation**: No native module compilation required
+- **Built-in Runtime**: Leverages Bun's built-in process management and SQLite
+- **Reduced Complexity**: Custom ProcessManager is simpler than PM2 integration
+
+### Migration Impact
+
+- **Data Preservation**: User data, settings, and database remain unchanged
+- **Automatic Cleanup**: Old PM2 processes automatically terminated (all platforms)
+- **No User Action Required**: Migration happens automatically on first hook trigger
+- **Backward Compatible**: SQLite database format unchanged (only driver changed)
+
+## Architecture Comparison
+
+### Old System (PM2-based)
+
+<AccordionGroup>
+<Accordion title="Process Management (PM2)">
+**Component**: PM2 (Process Manager 2)
+- **Package**: `pm2` npm dependency
+- **Process Name**: `claude-mem-worker`
+- **Management**: External PM2 daemon manages lifecycle
+- **Discovery**: `pm2 list`, `pm2 describe` commands
+- **Auto-restart**: PM2 automatically restarts on crash
+- **Logs**: `~/.pm2/logs/claude-mem-worker-*.log`
+- **PID File**: `~/.pm2/pids/claude-mem-worker.pid`
+
+**Lifecycle Commands**:
+```bash
+pm2 start <script>           # Start worker
+pm2 stop claude-mem-worker   # Stop worker
+pm2 restart claude-mem-worker # Restart worker
+pm2 delete claude-mem-worker  # Remove from PM2
+pm2 logs claude-mem-worker    # View logs
+```

+
+<Accordion title="Database Driver (better-sqlite3)">
+**Component**: better-sqlite3
+- **Package**: `better-sqlite3` npm package (native module)

+- **Windows**: Requires Visual Studio build tools + Python
+- **Import**: `import Database from 'better-sqlite3'`
+
+**Installation Requirements**:
+- Node.js development headers
+- C++ compiler (gcc/clang on Mac/Linux, MSVC on Windows)
+- Python (for node-gyp)
+- Windows: Visual Studio Build Tools
+</Accordion>
+</AccordionGroup>
+
+### New System (Bun-based)
+
+<AccordionGroup>
+<Accordion title="Process Management (Custom ProcessManager)">
+**Component**: Custom ProcessManager (`src/services/process/ProcessManager.ts`)
+- **Package**: Built-in Bun APIs (no external dependency)
+- **Process Spawn**: `Bun.spawn()` with detached mode
+- **Management**: Direct process control via PID file
+- **Discovery**: PID file + process existence check + HTTP health check
+- **Auto-restart**: Hook-triggered restart on failure detection
+- **Logs**: `~/.claude-mem/logs/worker-YYYY-MM-DD.log`
+- **PID File**: `~/.claude-mem/.worker.pid`
+- **Port File**: `~/.claude-mem/.worker.port` (new)
+
+**Lifecycle Commands**:
+```bash
+npm run worker:start    # Start worker
+npm run worker:stop     # Stop worker
+npm run worker:restart  # Restart worker
+npm run worker:status   # Check status
+npm run worker:logs     # View logs
+```
+
+**Core Mechanisms**:
+
+1. **PID File Management**:
+   - File: `~/.claude-mem/.worker.pid`
+   - Content: Process ID (e.g., "35557")
+   - Validation: Process existence via `kill(pid, 0)` signal
+
+2. **Port File Management**:
+   - File: `~/.claude-mem/.worker.port`
+   - Content: Two lines (port number, PID)
+   - Purpose: Track port binding and validate PID match
+
+3. **Health Checking**:
+   - Layer 1: PID file exists?
+   - Layer 2: Process alive? (`kill(pid, 0)`)
+   - Layer 3: HTTP health check (`GET /health`)
+   - All three must pass for "healthy" status
+
+**Advantages**:
+- No external dependencies
+- Simpler codebase (direct control)
+- Better error handling and validation
+- Platform-agnostic (Bun handles platform differences)
+</Accordion>
+
+<Accordion title="Database Driver (bun:sqlite)">
+**Component**: bun:sqlite
+- **Package**: Built into Bun runtime (no npm package)
+- **Installation**: None required (comes with Bun ≥1.0)
+- **Platform**: Works anywhere Bun works
+- **Import**: `import { Database } from 'bun:sqlite'`
+- **API**: Similar to better-sqlite3 (synchronous)
+
+**Installation Requirements**:
+- Bun ≥1.0 (automatically installed if missing)
+- No native compilation required
+- No platform-specific build tools needed
+
+**Compatibility**:
+- SQLite database format: **Unchanged**
+- Database file: `~/.claude-mem/claude-mem.db` (same location)
+- Query syntax: **Identical** (both use SQLite SQL)
+</Accordion>
+</AccordionGroup>
+
+## Migration Mechanics
+
+### One-Time PM2 Cleanup
+
+The migration system uses a marker-based approach to perform PM2 cleanup exactly once.
+
+**Implementation**: `src/shared/worker-utils.ts:73-86`
+
+```typescript
+// Clean up legacy PM2 (one-time migration)
+const pm2MigratedMarker = join(DATA_DIR, '.pm2-migrated');
+
+if (!existsSync(pm2MigratedMarker)) {
+  try {
+    spawnSync('pm2', ['delete', 'claude-mem-worker'], { stdio: 'ignore' });
+    // Mark migration as complete
+    writeFileSync(pm2MigratedMarker, new Date().toISOString(), 'utf-8');
+    logger.debug('SYSTEM', 'PM2 cleanup completed and marked');
+  } catch {
+    // PM2 not installed or process doesn't exist - still mark as migrated
+    writeFileSync(pm2MigratedMarker, new Date().toISOString(), 'utf-8');
+  }
+}
+```
+
+### Migration Trigger Points
+
+<Steps>
+<Step title="Hook Execution">
+SessionStart, UserPromptSubmit, or PostToolUse hooks execute using new 7.1.0 code
+</Step>
+<Step title="Worker Status Check">
+`ensureWorkerRunning()` checks if `~/.claude-mem/.worker.pid` exists (it doesn't for first run after update)
+</Step>
+<Step title="Start Worker Decision">
+Worker not running → Call `startWorker()`
+</Step>
+<Step title="Migration Check">
+Check if `~/.claude-mem/.pm2-migrated` exists
+</Step>
+<Step title="PM2 Cleanup">
+Execute `pm2 delete claude-mem-worker` (errors ignored), create marker file
+</Step>
+<Step title="New Worker Start">
+Spawn new Bun-managed worker process with PID and port files
+</Step>
+</Steps>
+
+### Marker File
+
+**Location**: `~/.claude-mem/.pm2-migrated`
+
+**Content**: ISO 8601 timestamp
+```
+2025-12-13T00:18:39.673Z
+```
+
+**Purpose**:
+- One-time migration flag
+- Prevents repeated PM2 cleanup on every start
+- Persists across restarts and reboots
+
+**Lifecycle**:
+- Created: First hook trigger after update to 7.1.0+ (all platforms)
+- Updated: Never
+- Deleted: Never (user could manually delete to force re-migration)
+
+## User Experience Timeline
+
+### First Session After Update
+
+<Note>
+This is the critical migration moment. The process takes approximately 2-5 seconds.
+</Note>
+
+**Step-by-Step Execution**:
+
+1. **Hook fires** (SessionStart most common)
+2. **Worker status check**: No PID file → worker not running
+3. **Migration check**: No marker file → run PM2 cleanup
+4. **PM2 cleanup**: `pm2 delete claude-mem-worker` (old worker terminated)
+5. **Marker creation**: `~/.claude-mem/.pm2-migrated` with timestamp
+6. **New worker start**: Bun process spawned, PID/port files created
+7. **Verification**: Process check + HTTP health check
+8. **Hook completes**: Claude Code session starts normally
+
+**User Observable Behavior**:
+- Slight delay on first startup (PM2 cleanup + new worker spawn)
+- No error messages (cleanup failures silently handled)
+- Worker appears running via `npm run worker:status`
+- Old PM2 worker no longer in `pm2 list`
+
+### Subsequent Sessions
+
+After migration completes, every hook trigger follows the fast path:
+
+1. PID file exists? **YES**
+2. Process alive? **YES**
+3. HTTP health check? **SUCCESS**
+4. Result: Worker already running, done (~50ms)
+
+No migration logic runs on subsequent sessions.
+

+
+## Edge Cases and Troubleshooting
+
+### Scenario 1: Migration Fails (PM2 Still Running)
+
+<Warning>
+This is rare but can happen if PM2 has watch mode enabled or the process is manually restarted.
+</Warning>
+
+**Symptoms**:
+- `pm2 list` still shows `claude-mem-worker`
+- Port conflict errors in logs
+- Worker fails to start
+
+**Resolution**:
+```bash
+# Manual cleanup
+pm2 delete claude-mem-worker
+pm2 save  # Persist the deletion
+
+# Force re-migration (optional)
+rm ~/.claude-mem/.pm2-migrated
+
+# Restart worker
+npm run worker:restart
+```
+
+### Scenario 2: Stale PID File (Process Dead)
+
+**Symptoms**:
+- `npm run worker:status` shows "not running"
+- `.worker.pid` file exists
+- Process ID doesn't exist
+
+**Automatic Recovery**: Next hook trigger detects dead process and starts a fresh worker.
+
+**Manual Resolution**:
+```bash
+rm ~/.claude-mem/.worker.pid
+rm ~/.claude-mem/.worker.port
+npm run worker:start
+```
+
+### Scenario 3: Port Already in Use
+
+**Error**: `EADDRINUSE: address already in use`
+
+**Resolution**:
+```bash
+# Check what's using the port
+lsof -i :37777
+
+# Kill the process
+kill -9 <PID>
+
+# Restart worker
+npm run worker:restart
+```
+
+### Common Error Messages
+
+| Error | Cause | Resolution |
+|-------|-------|------------|
+| `EADDRINUSE` | Port already in use | `lsof -i :37777` then kill conflicting process |
+| `No such process` | Stale PID file | Automatic cleanup on next hook trigger |
+| `pm2: command not found` | PM2 not installed | None needed (error is caught and ignored) |
+| `Invalid port X` | Port validation failed | Update `CLAUDE_MEM_WORKER_PORT` in settings |
+
+## Developer Notes
+
+### Testing the Migration
+
+```bash
+# 1. Install old version (with PM2)
+git checkout <pre-7.1.0-tag>
+npm install && npm run build && npm run sync-marketplace
+
+# 2. Start PM2 worker
+pm2 start plugin/scripts/worker-cli.js --name claude-mem-worker
+
+# 3. Update to new version
+git checkout main
+npm install && npm run build && npm run sync-marketplace
+
+# 4. Trigger hook
+node plugin/scripts/session-start-hook.js
+
+# 5. Verify migration
+pm2 list  # Should NOT show claude-mem-worker
+cat ~/.claude-mem/.pm2-migrated  # Should exist
+npm run worker:status  # Should show Bun worker running
+```
+
+### Architecture Decisions
+
+**Why Custom ProcessManager Instead of PM2?**
+1. **Simplicity**: Direct control, no external daemon
+2. **Dependencies**: Remove npm dependency
+3. **Cross-platform**: Bun handles platform differences
+4. **Bundle Size**: Reduce plugin package size
+5. **Control**: Fine-grained error handling and validation
+
+**Why One-Time Marker Instead of Always Running PM2 Delete?**
+1. **Performance**: Avoid unnecessary process spawning
+2. **Idempotency**: Migration runs exactly once
+3. **Debugging**: Timestamp shows when migration occurred
+4. **Simplicity**: Clear migration state
+
+**Why Run PM2 Cleanup on All Platforms?**
+1. **Quality Migration**: Clean up orphaned processes
+2. **Consistency**: Same behavior across all platforms
+3. **Safety**: Error handling already in place (try/catch)
+4. **No Downside**: If PM2 not installed, error is caught and ignored
+
+## Summary
+
+The migration from PM2 to Bun-based ProcessManager is a **one-time, automatic, transparent** transition that:
+
+1. **Removes external dependencies** (PM2, better-sqlite3)
+2. **Simplifies architecture** (direct process control)
+3. **Improves cross-platform support** (especially Windows)
+4. **Preserves user data** (database, settings, logs unchanged)
+5. **Requires no user action** (automatic on first hook trigger)
+
+**Key Migration Moment**: First hook trigger after update to 7.1.0+
+**Duration**: ~2-5 seconds (one-time delay)
+**Impact**: Seamless transition, user-invisible
+**Rollback**: Not needed (migration is forward-only, safe)
+
+For most users, the migration will be completely transparent - they'll see no errors, no data loss, and experience improved reliability and simpler troubleshooting going forward.

+title: "Endless Mode (Beta)"
+description: "Experimental biomimetic memory architecture for extended sessions"
+---
+
+# Current State of Endless Mode
+
+## Core Concept
+
+Endless Mode is a **biomimetic memory architecture** that solves Claude's context window exhaustion problem. Instead of keeping full tool outputs in the context window (O(N²) complexity), it:
+
+- Captures compressed observations after each tool use
+- Replaces transcripts with low token summaries
+- Achieves O(N) linear complexity
+- Maintains two-tier memory: working memory (compressed) + archive memory (full transcript on disk, maintained by default claude code functionality)
+
+## Implementation Status
+
+**Status**: FUNCTIONAL BUT EXPERIMENTAL
+
+**Current Branch**: `beta/endless-mode` (ahead of main)
+
+**Recent Activity**:
+- Merged main branch changes
+- Resolved merge conflicts in save-hook, SessionStore, SessionRoutes
+- Updated documentation to remove misleading token reduction claims
+- Added important caveats about beta status
+
+## Key Architecture Components
+
+1. **Pre-Tool-Use Hook** - Tracks tool execution start, sends tool_use_id to worker
+2. **Save Hook (PostToolUse)** - **CRITICAL**: Blocks until observation is generated (110s timeout), injects compressed observation back into context
+3. **SessionManager.waitForNextObservation()** - Event-driven wait mechanism (no polling)
+4. **SDKAgent** - Generates observations via Agent SDK, emits completion events
+5. **Database** - Added `tool_use_id` column for observation correlation
+
+## Configuration
+
+```json
+{
+  "CLAUDE_MEM_ENDLESS_MODE": "false",  // Default: disabled
+  "CLAUDE_MEM_ENDLESS_WAIT_TIMEOUT_MS": "90000"  // 90 second timeout
+}
+```
+
+**Enable via**: Manual checkout of beta branch (see instructions below)
+
+## Flow
+
+```
+Tool Executes → Pre-Hook (track ID) → Tool Completes →
+Save-Hook (BLOCKS) → Worker processes → SDK generates observation →
+Event fired → Hook receives observation → Injects markdown →
+Clears input → Context reduced
+```
+
+## Known Limitations
+
+From the documentation:
+- ⚠️ **Slower than standard mode** - Blocking adds latency
+- ⚠️ **Still in development** - May have bugs
+- ⚠️ **Not battle-tested** - New architecture
+- ⚠️ **Theoretical projections** - Efficiency gains not yet validated in production
+
+## What's Working
+
+- ✅ Synchronous observation injection
+- ✅ Event-driven wait mechanism
+- ✅ Token reduction via input clearing
+- ✅ Database schema with tool_use_id
+- ✅ Web UI for version switching
+- ✅ Graceful timeout fallbacks
+
+## What's Not Ready
+
+- ❌ Production validation of token savings
+- ❌ Comprehensive test coverage
+- ❌ Stable channel release
+- ❌ Performance benchmarks
+- ❌ Long-running session data
+
+## How to Try Endless Mode
+
+Endless Mode is currently only available on the beta branch. To try it:
+
+```bash
+# Navigate to your claude-mem installation
+cd ~/.claude/plugins/marketplaces/thedotmack/
+
+# Checkout the beta branch
+git checkout beta/endless-mode
+
+# Install dependencies
+npm install
+
+# Restart the worker
+npm run worker:restart
+```
+
+**To return to stable:**
+
+```bash
+cd ~/.claude/plugins/marketplaces/thedotmack/
+git checkout main
+npm install
+npm run worker:restart
+```
+
+## Summary
+
+The implementation is architecturally complete and functional, but remains experimental pending production validation of the theoretical efficiency gains.

+title: Claude Desktop Skill
+description: Use claude-mem memory search in Claude Desktop with the mem-search skill
+icon: desktop
+---
+
+<Note>
+**Availability:** The mem-search skill works with Claude Desktop on macOS and Windows.
+</Note>
+
+## Overview
+
+Claude Desktop can access your claude-mem memory database through the **mem-search** skill. This allows you to search past sessions, decisions, and observations directly from Claude Desktop conversations.
+
+## Prerequisites
+
+Before installing the skill, ensure:
+
+1. **claude-mem is installed** and the worker service is running
+2. **MCP server is configured** in Claude Desktop (the skill uses the `mem-search` MCP server)
+
+### Verify Worker is Running
+
+```bash
+curl http://localhost:37777/api/health
+# Should return: {"status":"ok"}
+```
+
+## Installation
+
+### Step 1: Download the Skill
+
+Download the skill package from the repository:

+
+    ```json
+    {
+      "mcpServers": {
+        "mem-search": {
+          "command": "node",
+          "args": [
+            "/Users/YOUR_USERNAME/.claude/plugins/marketplaces/thedotmack/plugin/scripts/mcp-server.cjs"
+          ]
+        }
+      }
+    }
+    ```
+  </Tab>
+  <Tab title="Windows">
+    Edit `%APPDATA%\Claude\claude_desktop_config.json`:
+
+    ```json
+    {
+      "mcpServers": {
+        "mem-search": {
+          "command": "node",
+          "args": [
+            "C:\\Users\\YOUR_USERNAME\\.claude\\plugins\\marketplaces\\thedotmack\\plugin\\scripts\\mcp-server.cjs"
+          ]
+        }
+      }
+    }
+    ```
+  </Tab>
+</Tabs>
+
+<Warning>
+Replace `YOUR_USERNAME` with your actual username. Restart Claude Desktop after editing the configuration.
+</Warning>
+
+### Step 4: Restart Claude Desktop
+
+Close and reopen Claude Desktop for the MCP server configuration to take effect.
+
+## Usage
+
+Once installed, the skill auto-activates when you ask about past work:
+
+```
+"What did we do last session?"
+"Did we fix this bug before?"
+"How did we implement authentication?"
+"What decisions did we make about the API?"
+"Show me changes to worker-service.ts"
+```
+
+## Available MCP Tools
+
+The skill provides access to these MCP tools:
+
+| Tool | Description |
+|------|-------------|
+| `search` | Unified search across observations, sessions, and prompts |
+| `timeline` | Get chronological context around a query or observation ID |
+| `get_observation` | Fetch a single observation by ID |
+| `get_observations` | Fetch multiple observations efficiently |
+| `get_session` | Fetch session summary by ID |
+| `get_prompt` | Fetch user prompt by ID |
+| `get_recent_context` | Get recent timeline items |
+| `get_context_timeline` | Get timeline around a specific observation |
+| `help` | Load detailed usage instructions |
+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+### Skill Not Appearing
+
+1. Verify the zip file was properly installed
+2. Check Claude Desktop's skill installation logs
+3. Restart Claude Desktop
+
+### MCP Server Connection Failed
+
+1. Verify the worker is running: `curl http://localhost:37777/api/health`
+2. Check the MCP server path in configuration
+3. Look for errors in Claude Desktop logs
+
+<Tabs>
+  <Tab title="macOS">
+    ```bash
+    # View Claude Desktop logs
+    tail -f ~/Library/Logs/Claude/claude.log
+    ```
+  </Tab>
+  <Tab title="Windows">
+    Check `%APPDATA%\Claude\logs\`
+  </Tab>
+</Tabs>
+
+### Search Returns No Results
+
+1. Ensure claude-mem has recorded sessions (check http://localhost:37777)
+2. Verify the database exists: `ls ~/.claude-mem/claude-mem.db`
+3. Test the API directly: `curl "http://localhost:37777/api/search?query=test"`

+title: "Memory Export/Import"
+description: "Share knowledge across claude-mem installations with duplicate prevention"
+---
+
+# Memory Export/Import Scripts
+
+Share your claude-mem knowledge with other users! These scripts allow you to export specific memories (observations, sessions, summaries, and prompts) and import them into another claude-mem installation.
+
+## Use Cases
+
+- **Share Windows compatibility knowledge** with Windows users
+- **Share bug fix patterns** with contributors
+- **Share project-specific learnings** across teams
+- **Backup specific memory sets** for safekeeping
+
+## How It Works
+
+### Export Script
+
+Searches the database using **hybrid search** (combines ChromaDB vector embeddings with FTS5 full-text search) and exports all matching:
+- **Observations** - Individual learnings and discoveries
+- **Sessions** - Session metadata
+- **Summaries** - Session summaries
+- **Prompts** - User prompts that led to the work
+
+Output is a portable JSON file that can be shared.
+
+> **Privacy Note:** Export files contain all matching memory data in plain text. Review exports before sharing to ensure no sensitive information (API keys, passwords, private paths) is included.
+
+### Import Script
+
+Imports memories with **duplicate prevention**:
+- Checks if each record already exists before inserting
+- Skips duplicates automatically
+- Maintains data integrity with transactional imports
+- Reports what was imported vs. skipped
+
+**Duplicate Detection Strategy:**
+- **Sessions**: By `claude_session_id` (unique)
+- **Summaries**: By `sdk_session_id` (unique)
+- **Observations**: By `sdk_session_id` + `title` + `created_at_epoch` (composite)
+- **Prompts**: By `claude_session_id` + `prompt_number` (composite)
+
+## Usage
+
+### Export Memories
+
+```bash
+# Export all Windows-related memories
+npx tsx scripts/export-memories.ts "windows" windows-memories.json
+
+# Export bug fixes
+npx tsx scripts/export-memories.ts "bugfix" bugfixes.json
+
+# Export specific feature work
+npx tsx scripts/export-memories.ts "progressive disclosure" progressive-disclosure.json
+```
+
+**Parameters:**
+1. `<query>` - Search query (uses hybrid semantic + full-text search)
+2. `<output-file>` - Output JSON file path
+3. `--project=name` - Optional: filter results to a specific project
+
+**Example Output:**
+```
+🔍 Searching for: "windows"
+✅ Found 54 observations
+✅ Found 12 sessions

+
+## Sharing Memories
+
+### For Export Authors
+
+1. **Export your memories:**
+   ```bash
+   npx tsx scripts/export-memories.ts "windows" windows-memories.json
+   ```
+
+2. **Share the JSON file** via:
+   - GitHub gist
+   - Project repository (`shared-memories/`)
+   - Direct file transfer
+   - Package in releases
+
+3. **Document what's included:**
+   - What query was used
+   - What knowledge is contained
+   - Who might benefit from it
+
+### For Import Users
+
+1. **Download the export file** to your local machine
+
+2. **Review what's in it** (optional):
+   ```bash
+   cat windows-memories.json | jq '.totalObservations, .totalSessions'
+   ```
+
+3. **Import into your database:**
+   ```bash
+   npx tsx scripts/import-memories.ts windows-memories.json
+   ```
+
+4. **Verify import** by searching:
+   ```bash
+   curl "http://localhost:37777/api/search?query=windows&format=index&limit=10"
+   ```
+
+## JSON Export Format
+
+```json
+{
+  "exportedAt": "2025-12-10T23:45:00.000Z",
+  "exportedAtEpoch": 1733876700000,
+  "query": "windows",
+  "totalObservations": 54,
+  "totalSessions": 12,
+  "totalSummaries": 12,
+  "totalPrompts": 7,
+  "observations": [ /* array of observation objects */ ],
+  "sessions": [ /* array of session objects */ ],
+  "summaries": [ /* array of summary objects */ ],
+  "prompts": [ /* array of prompt objects */ ]
+}
+```
+
+## Safety Features
+
+✅ **Duplicate Prevention** - Won't re-import existing records
+✅ **Transactional** - All-or-nothing imports (database stays consistent)
+✅ **Read-only Export** - Export script opens database in read-only mode
+✅ **Dependency Ordering** - Sessions imported before observations/summaries
+✅ **Validation** - Checks database exists before starting
+
+## Advanced Usage
+
+### Export by Project
+
+```bash
+# Export only claude-mem project memories
+npx tsx scripts/export-memories.ts "bugfix" bugfixes.json --project=claude-mem
+
+# Export all memories for a specific project
+npx tsx scripts/export-memories.ts "" all-project.json --project=my-app
+```
+
+### Export by Type
+
+```bash
+# Export only discoveries
+npx tsx scripts/export-memories.ts "type:discovery" discoveries.json
+
+# Export only bug fixes
+npx tsx scripts/export-memories.ts "type:bugfix" bugfixes.json
+```
+
+### Export by Date Range
+
+You can filter the export after exporting:
+
+```bash
+# Export all memories, then filter manually with jq
+npx tsx scripts/export-memories.ts "" all-memories.json
+cat all-memories.json | jq '.observations |= map(select(.created_at_epoch > 1700000000000))' > recent-memories.json
+```
+
+### Combine Multiple Exports
+
+```bash
+# Export different topics
+npx tsx scripts/export-memories.ts "windows" windows.json
+npx tsx scripts/export-memories.ts "linux" linux.json
+
+# Import both
+npx tsx scripts/import-memories.ts windows.json
+npx tsx scripts/import-memories.ts linux.json
+```
+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+### Database Not Found
+
+```
+❌ Database not found at: /Users/you/.claude-mem/claude-mem.db
+```
+
+**Solution:** Make sure claude-mem is installed and has been run at least once.
+
+### Import File Not Found
+
+```
+❌ Input file not found: windows-memories.json
+```
+
+**Solution:** Check the file path. Use absolute paths if needed.
+
+### Partial Import
+
+If import fails mid-way, the transaction is rolled back - your database remains unchanged. Fix the issue and try again.
+
+## Contributing Memory Sets
+
+If you've exported valuable knowledge that others might benefit from:
+
+1. Create a PR to the `shared-memories/` directory
+2. Include a README describing what's in the export
+3. Tag with relevant keywords (windows, linux, bugfix, etc.)
+4. Community members can then import your knowledge!
+
+## Examples of Useful Exports
+
+**Windows Compatibility Knowledge:**
+```bash
+npx tsx scripts/export-memories.ts "windows compatibility installation" windows-fixes.json
+```
+
+**Progressive Disclosure Architecture:**
+```bash
+npx tsx scripts/export-memories.ts "progressive disclosure architecture token" pd-patterns.json
+```
+
+**Bug Fix Patterns:**
+```bash
+npx tsx scripts/export-memories.ts "bugfix error handling" bugfix-patterns.json
+```
+
+**Performance Optimization:**
+```bash
+npx tsx scripts/export-memories.ts "performance optimization caching" perf-tips.json
+```

+
+- **Individual fetches:** 10 HTTP requests, ~5-10s latency
+- **Batch fetch:** 1 HTTP request, ~0.5-1s latency
+- **10-100x faster** for multi-observation queries

 **Clarity:**

+# README Translator
+
+Translate README.md files to multiple languages using the Claude Agent SDK. Perfect for build scripts and CI/CD pipelines.
+
+## Installation
+
+```bash
+npm install readme-translator
+# or
+npm install -g readme-translator  # for CLI usage
+```
+
+## Requirements
+
+- Node.js 18+
+- **Authentication** (one of the following):
+  - Claude Code installed and authenticated (Pro/Max subscription) - **no API key needed**
+  - `ANTHROPIC_API_KEY` environment variable set (for API-based usage)
+  - AWS Bedrock (`CLAUDE_CODE_USE_BEDROCK=1` + AWS credentials)
+  - Google Vertex AI (`CLAUDE_CODE_USE_VERTEX=1` + GCP credentials)
+
+If you have Claude Code installed and logged in with your Pro/Max subscription, the SDK will automatically use that authentication.
+
+## CLI Usage
+
+```bash
+# Basic usage
+translate-readme README.md es fr de
+
+# With options
+translate-readme -v -o ./i18n --pattern docs.{lang}.md README.md es fr de ja zh
+
+# List supported languages
+translate-readme --list-languages
+```
+
+### CLI Options
+
+| Option | Description |
+|--------|-------------|
+| `-o, --output <dir>` | Output directory (default: same as source) |
+| `-p, --pattern <pat>` | Output filename pattern (default: `README.{lang}.md`) |
+| `--no-preserve-code` | Translate code blocks too (not recommended) |
+| `-m, --model <model>` | Claude model to use (default: `sonnet`) |
+| `--max-budget <usd>` | Maximum budget in USD |
+| `-v, --verbose` | Show detailed progress |
+| `-h, --help` | Show help message |
+| `--list-languages` | List all supported language codes |
+
+## Programmatic Usage
+
+```typescript
+import { translateReadme } from "readme-translator";
+
+const result = await translateReadme({
+  source: "./README.md",
+  languages: ["es", "fr", "de", "ja", "zh"],
+  verbose: true,
+});
+
+console.log(`Translated ${result.successful} files`);
+console.log(`Total cost: $${result.totalCostUsd.toFixed(4)}`);
+```
+
+### API Options
+
+```typescript
+interface TranslationOptions {
+  /** Source README file path */
+  source: string;
+
+  /** Target language codes */
+  languages: string[];
+
+  /** Output directory (defaults to same directory as source) */
+  outputDir?: string;
+
+  /** Output filename pattern (use {lang} placeholder) */
+  pattern?: string; // default: "README.{lang}.md"
+
+  /** Preserve code blocks without translation */
+  preserveCode?: boolean; // default: true
+
+  /** Claude model to use */
+  model?: string; // default: "sonnet"
+
+  /** Maximum budget in USD */
+  maxBudgetUsd?: number;
+
+  /** Verbose output */
+  verbose?: boolean;
+}
+```
+
+### Return Value
+
+```typescript
+interface TranslationJobResult {
+  results: TranslationResult[];
+  totalCostUsd: number;
+  successful: number;
+  failed: number;
+}
+
+interface TranslationResult {
+  language: string;
+  outputPath: string;
+  success: boolean;
+  error?: string;
+  costUsd?: number;
+}
+```
+
+## Build Script Integration
+
+### package.json
+
+```json
+{
+  "scripts": {
+    "translate": "translate-readme README.md es fr de ja zh",
+    "translate:all": "translate-readme -v -o ./i18n README.md es fr de it pt ja ko zh ru ar",
+    "prebuild": "npm run translate"
+  }
+}
+```
+
+### GitHub Actions
+
+Note: CI/CD environments require an API key since Claude Code won't be authenticated there.
+
+```yaml

+
+## Best Practices
+
+1. **Preserve Code Blocks**: Keep `preserveCode: true` (default) to avoid breaking code examples
+
+2. **Set Budget Limits**: Use `maxBudgetUsd` to prevent runaway costs
+
+3. **Run on Releases Only**: In CI/CD, trigger translations only on main branch or releases
+
+4. **Review Translations**: Automated translations are good but not perfect - consider human review for critical docs
+
+5. **Cache Results**: Don't re-translate unchanged content - check if README changed before running
+
+## Cost Estimation
+
+Typical costs per language (varies by README length):
+- Short README (~500 words): ~$0.01-0.02
+- Medium README (~2000 words): ~$0.05-0.10
+- Long README (~5000 words): ~$0.15-0.25

+
+USAGE:
+  translate-readme [options] <source> <languages...>
+  translate-readme --help
+  translate-readme --list-languages
+
+ARGUMENTS:
+  source          Path to the source README.md file
+  languages       Target language codes (e.g., es fr de ja zh)
+
+OPTIONS:
+  -o, --output <dir>      Output directory (default: same as source)
+  -p, --pattern <pat>     Output filename pattern (default: README.{lang}.md)
+  --no-preserve-code      Translate code blocks too (not recommended)
+  -m, --model <model>     Claude model to use (default: sonnet)
+  --max-budget <usd>      Maximum budget in USD
+  -v, --verbose           Show detailed progress
+  -f, --force             Force re-translation ignoring cache
+  --parallel <n>          Run n translations concurrently (default: 1)
+  -h, --help              Show this help message
+  --list-languages        List all supported language codes
+
+EXAMPLES:
+  # Translate to Spanish and French
+  translate-readme README.md es fr
+
+  # Translate to multiple languages with custom output
+  translate-readme -v -o ./i18n --pattern docs.{lang}.md README.md de ja ko zh

-/**
- * New Hook - UserPromptSubmit
- *
- * DUAL PURPOSE HOOK: Handles BOTH session initialization AND continuation
- * ==========================================================================
- *
- * CRITICAL ARCHITECTURE FACTS (NEVER FORGET):
- *
- * 1. SESSION ID THREADING - The Single Source of Truth
- *    - Claude Code assigns ONE session_id per conversation
- *    - ALL hooks in that conversation receive the SAME session_id
- *    - We ALWAYS use this session_id - NEVER generate our own
- *    - This is how NEW hook, SAVE hook, and SUMMARY hook stay connected
- *
- * 2. NO EXISTENCE CHECKS NEEDED
- *    - createSDKSession is idempotent (INSERT OR IGNORE)
- *    - Prompt #1: Creates new database row, returns new ID
- *    - Prompt #2+: Row exists, returns existing ID
- *    - We NEVER need to check "does session exist?" - just use the session_id
- *
- * 3. CONTINUATION LOGIC LOCATION
- *    - This hook does NOT contain continuation prompt logic
- *    - That lives in SDKAgent.ts (lines 125-127)
- *    - SDKAgent checks promptNumber to choose init vs continuation prompt
- *    - BOTH prompts receive the SAME session_id from this hook
- *
- * 4. UNIFIED WITH SAVE HOOK
- *    - SAVE hook uses: db.createSDKSession(session_id, '', '')
- *    - NEW hook uses: db.createSDKSession(session_id, project, prompt)
- *    - Both use session_id from hook context - this keeps everything connected
- *
- * This is KISS in action: Use the session_id we're given, trust idempotent
- * database operations, and let SDKAgent handle init vs continuation logic.
