Bugfix Release

C and C++ functions were silently dropped from the index — aidex_signature and aidex_signatures returned types but zero methods for every C/C++ file.

Fixed

C/C++ function names were never extracted (src/parser/extractor.ts)

The generic method extractor only looked for a direct identifier child of a function_definition node. But the tree-sitter-c/c++ grammar never places the name there — it nests it under a declarator chain:

function_definition → (pointer_declarator)* → function_declarator → identifier

As a result name stayed null and every function was discarded, so C/C++ files showed types but no methods at all.

A new findCFunctionName() helper walks the declarator field chain (through any number of pointer_declarator / reference_declarator wrappers) down to the function_declarator and reads the real name. Applied only on the c / cpp path — other languages are untouched.

Verified: loghub_client.c went from 0 → 11 functions extracted (including pointer-return functions like uint8_t *slot_at(...)); regression-tested against C#, TypeScript and C++ with no change to their output.

⚠️ Action required

Already-indexed C/C++ projects keep the old (empty) result in their DB because the file hash is unchanged and won't auto-reindex. Force a re-index with aidex_init (or remove + update the affected files) to pick up the now-extracted functions.
