v7.1.1 - Critical Windows Fixes + Auto-Restart

🚨 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

v7.1.0: PM2 to Bun Migration

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.

🤖 Generated with Claude Code

v7.0.11

Patch release adding feature/bun-executable to experimental branch selector for testing Bun runtime integration.

v7.0.9

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

v7.0.8

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.
