# Changelog Archive: v0.5.x Series

## [v0.5.9] - 2025-08-29

### Added
- Daemon Repair Coordinator (FSM-driven) enabled by default when daemon is running
  - Performs idle-only embedding repair using existing repair utilities
  - New daemon repair metrics in StateComponent:
    - repairIdleTicks, repairBusyTicks, repairBatchesAttempted,
      repairEmbeddingsGenerated, repairEmbeddingsSkipped, repairFailedOperations
- IPC streaming persistence
  - Removed unsolicited end-of-stream heartbeat frame that could poison next response
  - Fixed message framing hang under certain pooled flows; reduced over-eager retries
- MCP server alignment with pooled client API
  - Corrected DaemonClientPool::acquire() usage (Result<Lease> → Lease)

### Known Issues
- Pooled reuse immediately after a streaming response can intermittently see
  "Connection closed by daemon" on follow-up unary calls (e.g., list/ping).
### Changed
- Coordinator ownership/lifecycle: now a YamsDaemon member started in start() and stopped before
  IPC/services teardown in stop() for safe shutdown

### Fixed
- Regressions in CLI / MCP tooling
- AddressSanitizer heap-use-after-free in IPC tests caused by coordinator thread outliving
  daemon members; resolved by proper ownership and shutdown ordering
  - Readiness flags and lightweight observability counters for repair gating
- IPC/Streaming & Pooling
  - Connection FSM guardrails with legal transitions for streaming and normalization
  - Header-first streaming responses with chunked transfer; persistent sockets supported
  - Client: pre-header reconnect-once (timeout/EOF/reset) and inter-chunk inactivity deadlines
  - Time-to-first-byte (TTFB) metric and response timing hooks
  - Streaming enabled for search, list, grep, and add document paths

## [v0.5.8] - 2025-08-29

### Fixed
- Release workflow: replaced invalid fromJSON() usage for matrix runner selection with direct `matrix.runs_on` reference.
- Docker workflow: stabilized ARM64 build by moving from macOS runner (no Docker daemon) to ubuntu-latest with QEMU emulation; added early `docker info` checks for both arches.

### Changed
- Docker: standardized multi-arch build steps (QEMU + Buildx) and ensured consistent labels/tags across architectures.

## [v0.5.7] - 2025-08-2

### Known Issues
- Daemon Pool connection issues for updated streaming commands (search, grep, list)
  - Search will return with backup, but grep will not

### Added
  - Implemented tinyfsm-based state machine for connection lifecycle management
  - Added per-connection FSM adapter (`yams::ipc::ConnectionFsm`) with clean state transitions
  - Vendored tinyfsm under `third_party/tinyfsm/` with MIT license compliance
  - Added comprehensive state machine documentation and integration guide
- **Groundwork for PBI-006**
  - Shared qualifier parser: inline query qualifiers (lines:, pages:, section:, selector:, name:, ext:, mime:) with quotes and spaces supported.
  - Hybrid search normalization: qualifiers are stripped from scoring text and passed as structured hints to engines.
  - Lines-range scoped snippets in hybrid engine: when `lines:` is specified, result snippets are sliced to requested line windows.
  - Integrated PDF content extraction into search, cat, get. This will evolve into a plugin system to support custom file type search from stored files.
- Introduced daemon pooled request pattern across MCP/CLI boundaries.
- Lightweight `daemon_first` wrapper in CLI that uses `DaemonClient::call<T>` to preserve daemon-first behavior while commands migrate to pooled execution.

### Changed
- **Daemon Client/Server Pipeline Refactor**
  - **AsyncSocket Simplification**: Replaced complex generation-based tracking with tinyfsm state machine
    - Removed atomic generation counters and complex mutex operations
    - Implemented clean state transitions: Disconnected → Connecting → Connected → ReadingHeader → ReadingPayload → WritingHeader → StreamingChunks → Error/Closed
    - Eliminated race conditions in socket lifecycle management
    - Reduced memory footprint and improved debuggability
  - **DaemonClient Pipeline Consolidation**: Unified timeout and request handling
    - Consolidated timeout configuration (removed scattered env vars + config mixing)
    - Single `PipelineConfig` struct with clear precedence rules
    - Streamlined request execution with `execute<T>()` template method
    - Centralized send_message/receive_message helpers
    - Improved error context with operation details
  - **AsyncIpcServer Threading Cleanup**: Simplified thread pool management
    - Clear separation between IO threads and worker threads
    - Improved lifecycle management and resource cleanup
    - Better thread naming and monitoring capabilities
- Cleaned up build system and devcontainer
- Hybrid/metadata parity: name/ext/mime qualifiers are honored across engines
  - Hybrid: mapped to `vector::SearchFilter.metadata_filters` and enforced by both vector and keyword paths.
  - Metadata fallback: qualifiers merged into service filters (pathPattern, extension, mimeType) so behavior matches hybrid.
- MCPServer constructor simplified to `(std::unique_ptr<ITransport>, std::atomic<bool>*)`; serve command and yams-mcp tool updated to STDIO-only transport.
- `daemon_helpers` generalized to accept generic callables (lambdas) instead of `std::function`, improving template deduction and avoiding copies.

### Fixed
- Search service: hash-prefix path used the wrong local variable; corrected to ensure path/type filters are applied correctly.
- Metadata search: removed references to non-existent request fields and unified name filtering via path pattern.
- MCP tools/call responses were not rendered by some clients due to missing MCP content wrapper. Non-MCP-shaped tool results are now wrapped in a top-level content array.
- search: paths_only results could be empty; fixed to return service-provided paths.
- list: limit and offset were not wired from MCP -> services; pagination is now honored.
- Protocol alignment: removed non-existent fields from daemon `SearchRequest` mapping and explicitly cast similarity to `double`.
- Error handling: replaced non-existent `ErrorCode::Unavailable` with `ErrorCode::NetworkError`.
- Type mapping: `DeleteRequest` now maps to `DeleteResponse` in response traits.
- Duplicates: removed duplicate `clientInfo_`/`negotiatedProtocolVersion_` members and the extra `handleUpdateMetadata` definition in MCP.
- Linking: integrated daemon IPC implementation into `yams_mcp` and linked `ZLIB::ZLIB` (CRC32) to resolve `AsyncSocket`/`ConnectionPool` and checksum undefined symbols.
- Windows CI job fix (this will be a process)
- Release build fix for artfact upload on partial success

### Notes
- CLI migration to pooled requests will proceed per-command; the temporary `daemon_first` wrapper keeps commands working until each is switched to the pooled manager.

## [v0.5.6] - 2025-08-24

**CI version bump**
- Release formatting fix

## [v0.5.5] - 2025-08-24

**CI version bump**
- Releases now generate regardless of build failures

## [v0.5.3] - 2025-08-24

**CI version bump**

## [v0.5.2] - 2025-08-24

### Changed
- Release workflow: made Linux validation build non-blocking in release pipeline to allow packaging and publishing artifacts even if validation step fails. Validation failures are surfaced in job logs and summary but no longer block artifact creation.

### Fixed
- Linux build: guarded macOS-specific Mach headers in RequestDispatcher with __APPLE__ and added Linux-friendly memory/CPU sampling using /proc, fixing fatal includes on Linux targets.

## [v0.5.1] - 2025-08-24

### Known Issues
- Daemon connection exhaustion: running many concurrent yams processes (e.g., find -exec yams add …) can hit the default max_connections=100 and cause rejections. Mitigation: prefer recursive/batched commands or cap concurrency (e.g., xargs -P 4). Consider raising max_connections for CI.
- Regex alternation in yams search: search currently treats queries as keyword/FTS; compound regex expressions (e.g., A|B) aren’t supported there yet. Use yams grep for regex, or await a future --regex mode in search.
