varun29ankuS/shodh-memory releases

v0.2.0

Breaking Changes

• Serialization: bincode → postcard — All write paths now use postcard. Read paths dual-decode (postcard-first, legacy fallback). Offline migration: shodh-memory-server migrate --storage <path>.

New Features

• Entity salience reward loop — recall feedback propagates to graph (#217)
• NER filter expansion — 6 new entity filtering rules (#215)
• Curvature-weighted retrieval — graph-informed entity filtering (#214)
• Causal lineage inference — automatic on remember, 7 relation types
• Fact-aware recall scoring — high-confidence facts boost source memories
• Glacial fact decay — exponential half-life replaces linear decay

Fixes

• MCP process orphan bug — stdin EOF detection, WebSocket cleanup (#218)
• Docker image — pre-baked models, zero-download startup (#219)
• Temporal retrieval — unified parsing, created_at proximity (#197)
• MCP reliability — race condition, timeout, error handling (#196)
• MCP env vars — SHODH_HOST/SHODH_PORT respected (#195)
• Edge pruning log spam reduced to debug level
• ORT init logging auditable (eprintln before tracing init)

Infrastructure

• Postcard serialization with SHO envelope format tags
• SHA-256 checksum verification for Docker-baked models
• OOM fix: bincode decode limit 10MB

What's Changed

• fix(security): remediate semgrep shell injection and command execution findings by @gourmetfire in https://github.com/varun29ankuS/shodh-memory/pull/111
• feat: unified shodh CLI (closes #12) by @varun29ankuS in https://github.com/varun29ankuS/shodh-memory/pull/113

What's New

Remember Idempotency (SHA-256 Content Dedup)

Identical memories are never stored twice. Every remember() call now computes a content hash — if the same content already exists, it returns the existing memory ID instead of creating a duplicate. This makes the entire ingestion pipeline safe for retry, batch processing, and multi-agent scenarios.

Security Hardening

• API key validation with constant-time comparison
• Request size limits and input sanitization across all endpoints
• WebSocket authentication scoped per connection
• CORS and security headers on all responses

RocksDB Consolidation (20 → 3 DBs)

Column family migration reduced file descriptor usage by ~85%. Each user's data now lives in 3 RocksDB instances (storage, graph, shared) instead of 20 separate databases. Migration is lazy and transparent — old data directories are renamed on first access.

Zero-Config Local Setup

First run auto-generates an API key, downloads models (~38MB), and starts serving. No environment variables, no Docker, no configuration files needed.

Performance

• remember() API response: <200ms (was 5-15s with sync processing)
• Fire-and-forget post-processing for embeddings, NER, and graph updates
• Shared RocksDB block cache capped at 256MB
• Entity embedding cache capped at 10K entries
• jemalloc enabled for RocksDB on Linux/macOS

Bug Fixes (40+)

• Fix retrieval_mode not skipping graph traversal in semantic recall
• Fix Windows MCP server spawn EINVAL and truncated UUIDs
• Fix read_memory returning 'undefined' when LLM sends id instead of memory_id
• Fix stuck 429 rate limit on resource-constrained systems
• Fix mmap vector loading on Windows
• Fix backup/restore covering todos, reminders, facts, and audit logs
• Fix pre-migration directory cleanup across all modules

47 MCP Tools

Full GTD task management (todos, projects, subtasks, comments), reminders (time/duration/context triggers), backup/restore, and index health monitoring — all available to Claude, Cursor, and other MCP clients.

Updated TUI Dashboard

New recall view and projects/todos screenshots.

What's New in 0.1.80

OpenAI Agents SDK Integration

• ShodhTools: 8 FunctionTool instances (remember, recall, forget, context_summary, proactive_context, add_todo, list_todos, complete_todo) for explicit memory operations
