## What's Still Broken / Not Done
### π΄ CRITICAL - Blocking Production
#### 1. **NOT INTEGRATED INTO MAIN APP**
```
src/index.ts
β
ββ> β Does NOT import EnhancedIndexManager
ββ> β No tools use relationships
ββ> β No verb trigger support
NEEDED:
β
ββ> Import and initialize EnhancedIndexManager
ββ> Add to portfolio_search tool
ββ> Create new MCP tools:
β ββ> find_similar_elements
β ββ> get_element_relationships
β ββ> search_by_verb
ββ> Add relationship info to responses
```
### π‘ MEDIUM - Quality Issues
#### 2. **Security Validation False Positives**
```
PROBLEM: Legitimate security skills are blocked
FILES AFFECTED:
- comprehensive-security-auditor.md β
- content-safety-validator.md β
- encoding-pattern-detection.md β
- security-validation-system-summary.md β
- penetration-test-report.md β
CAUSE: ContentValidator patterns too aggressive
PATTERN: /audit|security|scan/ matching in descriptions
FIX NEEDED:
- Refine patterns to be more specific
- Whitelist security-related skills
- Or disable validation for portfolio files
```
#### 3. **Test Suite Still Disabled**
```
test/__tests__/unit/portfolio/EnhancedIndexManager.test.ts
ββ> describe.skip() - Tests still skipped
test/__tests__/unit/portfolio/VerbTriggerManager.test.ts
ββ> describe.skip() - Tests still skipped
ISSUES:
- File lock conflicts in test environment
- Mock strategy needed for isolation
- Tests timeout even with fixes
```
### π’ MINOR - Enhancements
#### 4. **No Persistent Cache**
```
CURRENT: Rebuilds index every restart
NEEDED: Cache index between runs
- Check file mtimes for changes
- Only reindex modified files
- Store cache in ~/.dollhouse/cache/
```
#### 5. **Limited Verb Triggers**
```
CURRENT: Only 2 triggers found
EXPECTED: Should find 50+ based on element names
ISSUE: Verb extraction too conservative
```
## Implementation Plan
### Phase 1: Fix Blockers (Current Session)
```
[β
] Fix circular dependency
[β
] Increase comparison limits
[β
] Document architecture
[β¬] Fix security validation
[β¬] Re-enable tests
```
### Phase 2: Integration (Next Session)
```
[β¬] Add to src/index.ts initialization
[β¬] Create find_similar_elements tool
[β¬] Create get_element_relationships tool
[β¬] Add relationships to portfolio_search
[β¬] Enable verb-based discovery in activate_element
```
### Phase 3: Optimization
```
[β¬] Implement persistent cache
[β¬] Add incremental indexing
[β¬] Use worker threads for NLP
[β¬] Add progress reporting
```
### Phase 4: Enhancement
```
[β¬] More relationship types
[β¬] Element composition
[β¬] Dependency tracking
[β¬] Cross-element validation
```
## Code Changes Needed
### 1. Fix Security Validation
```typescript
// src/security/contentValidator.ts
// Change overly broad patterns:
- /audit/ // Matches "audit" anywhere
+ /\baudit\s*\(/ // Only matches audit() function calls
- /security/ // Too broad
+ /security\s*\.\s*\w+/ // Only security.method patterns
```
### 2. Integrate into Main App
```typescript
// src/index.ts
import { EnhancedIndexManager } from './portfolio/EnhancedIndexManager.js';
// In initialization:
const enhancedIndex = EnhancedIndexManager.getInstance();
// In portfolio_search tool:
const relationships = await enhancedIndex.getRelationships(elementName);
// New tool:
server.setRequestHandler(ListToolsRequestSchema, async () => ({
tools: [
// ... existing tools
{
name: 'find_similar_elements',
description: 'Find elements similar to a given element',
inputSchema: {
type: 'object',
properties: {
element_name: { type: 'string' },
limit: { type: 'number', default: 5 }
}
}
}
]
}));
```
### 3. Enable Tests
```typescript
// test/__tests__/unit/portfolio/EnhancedIndexManager.test.ts
describe('EnhancedIndexManager - Extensibility Tests', () => {
// Remove skip
// Add proper mocks for file system
// Mock the index file to avoid building
});
```
## Success Metrics
### Current State β
- Build time: 186ms β
- Elements indexed: 186 β
- Relationships: 596 β
- Memory usage: ~50MB β
### Target State
- Build time: <200ms β
- Elements indexed: 200+ β¬
- Relationships: 1000+ β¬
- Verb triggers: 50+ β¬
- Test coverage: >96% β¬
- Production integrated β¬
## Summary
The Enhanced Index is **90% working** but **0% integrated**. The core functionality is stable and performant, but it needs:
1. **Security validation fix** (blocking some files)
2. **Production integration** (not used anywhere)
3. **Test suite enablement** (still skipped)
With these three fixes, the feature will be fully production-ready and add significant value through semantic relationships and verb-based discovery.

*Architecture Status: Core Fixed, Integration Pending*
*Next Action: Fix security validation, then integrate into main app*
