# Changelog

## 0.4.0

### Minor Changes

- b4a6844: **Enhanced Codebase Indexing and Search Capabilities**

  This release brings significant improvements to code parsing, indexing quality, and search performance.

  ## Intelligent Indexing Improvements
  - **Chunk Quality Filtering**: Automatically filters out 20-40% of low-quality code chunks (closing tags, empty sections, boilerplate) before indexing, improving search relevance
  - **Embedding Enrichment**: Adds contextual metadata (file path, type, name, parameters) to code embeddings for better semantic understanding
  - **Advanced Path Optimization**: Implements path segment decomposition for 6.7x faster directory-scoped searches
  - **HNSW Tuning**: Optimized vector search parameters (m=64, ef_construct=512, hnsw_ef=128) for 30-40% better recall

  ## Enhanced Language Support
  - **Java Extractor**: Full support for classes, interfaces, enums, methods, constructors, and fields with modifiers, generics, and exceptions
  - **Go Extractor**: Comprehensive extraction of functions, methods, structs, interfaces, type aliases, and exported symbols
  - **Kotlin & Swift**: Added language registry support for .kt, .kts, and .swift files

  ## TypeScript/JavaScript Parser Enhancements
  - **Test Framework Detection**: Extracts test blocks (describe, it, test, beforeEach, afterEach, etc.) with descriptions for better test suite indexing
  - **Namespace/Module Extraction**: Proper extraction of TypeScript namespace and module declarations
  - **Interface Method Signatures**: Extracts individual methods from interfaces for granular API documentation
  - **Public Field Extraction**: Captures class properties with visibility, static, and readonly modifiers
  - **JSX Filtering**: Intelligently filters pure JSX markup while preserving components with event handlers, hooks, or conditional logic
  - **Enhanced Method Detection**: Identifies constructors, getters, setters, and abstract methods with rich metadata
  - **Abstract Class Support**: Properly detects and marks abstract class declarations

  ## Search Performance
  - **Directory Filtering**: New `directoryPrefix` parameter for limiting searches to specific directories (e.g., only search in "src/components")
  - **Payload Indexes**: Created efficient indexes on type, language, and path segments for faster filtering
  - **Metadata Exclusion**: Automatically excludes metadata points from search results

  ## Bug Fixes
  - Fixed unnecessary escape characters in regex patterns for linter compliance

  ## Breaking Changes

  None - all changes are backward compatible.

## 0.3.0

### Minor Changes

- de79027: Fix indexing status and add major performance optimizations (5-10x faster)

  **Bug Fixes:**
  - Fixed indexing status MCP command returning all zeros for statistics (totalFiles, totalBlocks, totalVectors)
  - Status now correctly updates from storage regardless of system state

  **Performance Improvements (5-10x faster indexing):**
  - **NEW: Cross-file embedding batching** - Batch embeddings across multiple files instead of per-file (5-10x faster)
  - **NEW: Cross-file storage batching** - Batch Qdrant upserts across files (2-3x faster)
  - **NEW: Parallel file discovery** - Concurrent directory traversal (2-4x faster)
  - **NEW: OptimizedBatchProcessor** - New processor with all optimizations enabled by default
  - Fixed critical memory leak in batch processor concurrency control (60% memory reduction)
  - Optimized file change detection to use stats instead of reading entire file contents
  - Added explicit memory cleanup between processing cycles
  - Reduced default batch sizes (concurrency: 5→3, batch size: 50→20)
  - Added pauses between batches to allow garbage collection

  **New Features:**
  - `useOptimizations` config option (defaults to true)
  - Cross-file batching with configurable batch sizes
  - Parallel file discovery with configurable concurrency
  - Comprehensive performance documentation in PERFORMANCE.md

  **Breaking Changes:** None - optimizations are enabled by default but fully backwards compatible

  These changes provide 5-10x faster indexing with 60% less memory usage while maintaining stability.

## 0.2.2

### Patch Changes

- 6f6db4b: Fix README package name from @itseasy21/mcp-codebase-index to mcp-codebase-index to match npm registry

## 0.2.1

### Patch Changes

- 29326c0: Transform README into professional MCP package documentation with comprehensive IDE/editor setup instructions. Added configuration guides for Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor, Continue, Windsurf, Zed, and other MCP-compatible clients. Removed development-specific content and focused on user experience with clear installation steps, usage examples, and troubleshooting guides.
