- Enhanced logging functionality in user-message-hook.js to include better formatting and error handling.
- Updated worker-utils.ts to escape single quotes in PowerShell commands and added checks for global PM2 installation.
- Improved readability and maintainability of the code by restructuring and clarifying variable names.
**Problem:**
Worker service crashed on startup with:
TypeError: Cannot read properties of undefined (reading 'get')
at new Wd (.../worker-service.cjs:52:131469)
**Root Cause:**
Circular dependency between SettingsDefaultsManager and logger:
1. SettingsDefaultsManager imports logger
2. logger imports SettingsDefaultsManager
3. logger constructor calls SettingsDefaultsManager.get() at init time
4. When CommonJS resolves the cycle, SettingsDefaultsManager is undefined
**Solution:**
Break the circular dependency by making logger lazy-load its configuration:
- Change logger.level from initialized in constructor to lazy-loaded
- Add getLevel() method that loads on first access
- Update all level checks to use getLevel()
This allows SettingsDefaultsManager to import logger without triggering
the circular dependency, since logger no longer accesses SettingsDefaultsManager
during module initialization.

This PR addresses issue #193 affecting Windows installations of claude-mem.
## Bug 1: Missing ecosystem.config.cjs in packaged plugin
**Problem**: The ecosystem.config.cjs file was not included in the plugin
package, causing PM2 to fail when trying to start the worker from cache.
**Fix**: Added `plugin/ecosystem.config.cjs` with correct path for packaged
structure (`./scripts/worker-service.cjs` instead of `./plugin/scripts/`).
## Bug 2: Incorrect MCP Server Path (src/services/worker-service.ts)
**Problem**: Path `__dirname, '..', '..', 'plugin', 'scripts', 'mcp-server.cjs'`
only worked in dev structure, failed in packaged plugin.
**Error produced**:
```
Error: Cannot find module 'C:\Users\...\claude-mem\plugin\scripts\mcp-server.cjs'
[ERROR] [SYSTEM] Background initialization failed MCP error -32000: Connection closed
```
**Fix**: Changed to `path.join(__dirname, 'mcp-server.cjs')` since mcp-server.cjs
is in the same directory as worker-service.cjs after bundling.
## Bug 3: Missing smart-install.js in plugin package
**Problem**: smart-install.js was referenced in hooks.json but not included
in the plugin/ directory for cache deployment.
**Fix**: Added `plugin/scripts/smart-install.js` that uses `createRequire()`
to resolve modules from MARKETPLACE_ROOT.
## Bug 4: hooks.json incorrect path
**Problem**: Referenced `/../scripts/smart-install.js` but CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT
points to the plugin/ directory.
**Fix**: Changed to `/scripts/smart-install.js`.
## Bug 5: Windows Worker Startup - Visible Console Windows
**Problem**: PM2 ignores windowsHide option on Windows, opening visible
console windows when starting the worker service.
**Fix**: Use PowerShell `Start-Process -WindowStyle Hidden` on Windows while
keeping PM2 for Unix systems (src/shared/worker-utils.ts).
## Additional Improvements
- Increased worker startup timeouts for Windows (500ms health check, 1000ms
wait between retries, 15 retries = 15s total vs previous 5s)
- Added `windowsHide: true` to root ecosystem.config.cjs for PM2
## Note on Assertion Failure
The Windows libuv assertion failure `!(handle->flags & UV_HANDLE_CLOSING)`
at `src\win\async.c:76` is a known upstream issue in Claude Code (Issue #7579),
triggered by fetch() calls on Windows. This is NOT caused by worker spawning
and cannot be fixed in claude-mem.
Tested on Windows 11 with Node.js v24.

* fix: Strip private tags from user prompts and skip memory ops for fully private prompts
Fixes critical privacy bug where <private> tags were not being stripped from
user prompts before storage in user_prompts table, making private content
searchable via mem-search.
Changes:
1. new-hook.ts: Skip memory operations for fully private prompts
- If cleaned prompt is empty after stripping tags, skip saveUserPrompt
- Skip worker init to avoid wasting resources on empty prompts
- Logs: "(fully private - skipped)"
2. save-hook.ts: Skip observations for fully private prompts
- Check if user prompt was entirely private before creating observations
- Respects user intent: fully private prompt = no observations at all
- Prevents "thoughts pop up" issue where private prompts create public observations
3. SessionStore.ts: Add getUserPrompt() method
- Retrieves prompt text by session_id and prompt_number
- Used by save-hook to check if prompt was private
4. Tests: Added 4 new tests for fully private prompt detection (16 total, all passing)
5. Docs: Updated private-tags.mdx to reflect correct behavior
- User prompts ARE now filtered before storage
- Private content never reaches database or search indices
Privacy Protection:
- Fully private prompts: No user_prompt saved, no worker init, no observations
- Partially private prompts: Tags stripped, content sanitized before storage
- Zero leaks: Private content never indexed or searchable

**Problem:**
- Sessions created with empty project names couldn't be updated
- INSERT OR IGNORE skipped updates when session already existed
- Context-hook couldn't find observations (WHERE project = 'claude-mem')
- 364 observations had empty project names
**Root Cause:**
createSDKSession() used INSERT OR IGNORE for idempotency, but never
updated project/prompt fields when session already existed. If SAVE hook
created session first (with empty project), NEW hook couldn't fix it.
**Solution:**
When INSERT is ignored (session exists), UPDATE project and user_prompt
if we have non-empty values. This ensures project name gets set even
when session was created by SAVE hook or with incomplete data.
**Impact:**
- New sessions will always have correct project name
- Backfilled 364 historical observations with project='claude-mem'
- Context injection will now work (finds observations by project)

Root cause: The ensureDiscoveryTokensColumn migration was using version 7,
which was already taken by removeSessionSummariesUniqueConstraint. This
duplicate version number caused migration tracking issues in some databases.
Changes:
- Updated migration version from 7 to 11 (next available)
- Added schema_versions check to prevent unnecessary re-runs
- Updated comments to clarify the version number conflict
- Added error propagation (already present, but now more reliable)
This resolves issue #121 where users were seeing "no such column: discovery_tokens"
errors after upgrading to v6.0.6.
Affected users can manually add the columns:
ALTER TABLE observations ADD COLUMN discovery_tokens INTEGER DEFAULT 0;

* feat: Enhance session and summary handling
- Update SQL query in SessionStore to exclude null or empty projects.
- Add 'investigated' field to Summary interface for better tracking.
- Modify App component to handle pagination more efficiently based on current filters.
- Update SummaryCard to display the 'investigated' field if present.
- Refactor usePagination hook to reset pagination state when filters change.
- Adjust mergeAndDeduplicateByProject function to ensure it only merges unfiltered data.
* refactor: address PR feedback - remove redundancies and fix dependency cycles
Fixes based on PR #70 review feedback:
Required:
- Fixed useEffect dependency cycle in App.tsx (removed handleLoadMore from deps)
Recommended:
- Removed redundant filter detection from App.tsx (usePagination handles this)
- Removed redundant stateRef update effect from usePagination.ts
- Simplified mergeAndDeduplicateByProject by removing defensive validation
- Removed unused imports (useRef, useEffect)
All changes follow CLAUDE.md principles: DRY, fail-fast, no defensive programming.

* fix: Reset paginated data arrays when filter changes
Critical fix for data mixing bug identified in PR review follow-up.
Problem:
When filter changes, usePagination correctly resets its offset to 0, but
the paginated state arrays (observations, summaries, prompts) were NOT
being reset. This caused data from different projects to mix together
because setState appends to the existing array.
Example:
- User views Project A: [A1, A2, A3]
- User switches to Project B
- API fetches [B1, B2, B3]
- setState does: [...prev, ...new] = [A1, A2, A3, B1, B2, B3] ❌
Solution:
Added a separate useEffect that resets all three paginated arrays when
currentFilter changes. This happens BEFORE handleLoadMore fetches new
data, ensuring clean state for the new filter.
Files changed:
- src/ui/viewer/App.tsx: Added useEffect to reset arrays on filter change
- plugin/ui/viewer-bundle.js: Built UI bundle
Testing:
1. Select Project A, verify data loads
2. Switch to Project B
3. Verify ONLY Project B data is shown (no mixing)
4. Switch back to "All Projects"
5. Verify all data appears correctly

* refactor: Combine filter change useEffect hooks for guaranteed order
Merged two separate useEffect hooks into one to:
1. Guarantee execution order (reset THEN load)
2. Reduce complexity (one hook instead of two)
3. Make intent clearer with single comment
Before:
- useEffect #1: handleLoadMore() on filter change
- useEffect #2: Reset arrays on filter change
- React could run these in any order
After:
- Single useEffect: Reset arrays THEN handleLoadMore()
- Execution order is now guaranteed
Files changed:
- src/ui/viewer/App.tsx: Combined useEffect hooks
- plugin/ui/viewer-bundle.js: Built UI bundle
