1541 Diagram Now Working User Request: - "fix the 1541 article generation issue" Issue Fixed: - ParseException errors prevented diagram generation for 1541, SID, VIC-II articles - Matplotlib was trying to parse '$' symbols as LaTeX math delimiters - Articles failed during diagram generation before content could be created Root Cause: - plt.rcParams['text.usetex'] was set inside _generate_memory_map_diagrams() method - Matplotlib needs this configuration set globally before any operations - Parallel article generation caused timing issues with per-method configuration Solution: - Moved matplotlib.rcParams['text.usetex'] = False to module level (line 37) - Set immediately after matplotlib.use('Agg') in imports - Global configuration ensures all matplotlib operations respect setting Results: - Articles increased from 20 to 23 (1541, SID, VIC-II now working) - 1541 diagram successfully generated: 1541_disk_layout.png (87K) -

Overall: Nearly instant initialization for immediate use Lazy Loading Optimization: - Sentence-transformers model loads on first semantic search use - Defers ~2.5 second model initialization until actually needed - Users who don't use semantic search never pay the loading cost - First semantic search takes ~2.5s (one-time), subsequent searches unaffected - Massive improvement for startup experience Technical Implementation: - New method: _ensure_embeddings_loaded() for lazy initialization - Modified __init__() to skip model loading - Updated semantic_search() and _build_embeddings() to trigger lazy load - Verified parallel hybrid search already implemented (ThreadPoolExecutor) - Confirmed 24 database indexes already optimized Performance Analysis Tools: - profile_performance.py: Comprehensive profiling script - benchmark_final.py: Before/after comparison benchmarks - PERFORMANCE_OPTIMIZATIONS_PHASE2.md: Full optimization documentation - performance_phase2_results.json: Detailed metrics Impact on User Experience: - Knowledge base ready in under 70ms (essentially instant) - No waiting for initialization - Reduced memory footprint by 94% - Search performance maintained or improved - Trade-off: First semantic search slower (acceptable one-time cost) REST API Fixes (from v2.18.0): - Fixed attribute name bugs: kb.conn → kb.db_conn - Fixed attribute name bugs: kb.db_path → kb.db_file - Fixed attribute name bugs: kb.use_semantic_search → kb.use_semantic - Health endpoint moved to /api/v1/health for consistency - Lifespan manager updated to support pre-initialized KB (testing) - Test suite improvements and smoke tests added v2.18.0 (2025-12-22) 🚀 MAJOR RELEASE: Complete REST API Server REST API Implementation (18 functional endpoints): -

Automatic detection of <frameset>, <frame>, and <iframe> pages - Extract frame source URLs and convert relative paths to absolute - Scrape each frame individually with recursive link following - Combine results from all frames into single unified response - No user configuration required - fully automatic Implementation: - New method: _detect_and_extract_frames() using requests + regex - Modified scrape_url() to detect frames before calling mdscrape - Frame scraping uses parent directory as URL limit for proper link following - Duplicate content detection working across frames Testing & Validation: - Successfully tested on sidmusic.org/sid/ (frame-based site) - Scraped 2 frames + 18 sub-pages (technical docs, composers, SID player, etc.) - Proper handling of duplicate content across frames - Response includes 'frames_detected' field for transparency Documentation: - Updated WEB_SCRAPING_GUIDE.md with frame handling section - Added troubleshooting entry for frameset pages -
