Add new tool sections 2. Update feature comparison table 3. Add hierarchy examples 4. Add compression guide 5. Add archiving guide 6. Update version to 0.9.0 ### New Documentation Files 1. **HIERARCHY_GUIDE.md** - Using parent-child relationships 2. **COMPRESSION_GUIDE.md** - Managing memory compression 3. **ARCHIVING_GUIDE.md** - Archive lifecycle 4. **QUERY_LANGUAGE.md** - Boolean search syntax 5. **MIGRATION_GUIDE.md** - Upgrading from 0.8.0 ### API Documentation Update tool descriptions with: - Parameter details - Return value schemas - Usage examples - Error conditions --- ## Success Metrics ### Code Quality - ✅ TypeScript strict mode - ✅ 100% type coverage - ✅ No linter errors - ✅ All tests passing ### Feature Completeness | Feature | Target | Measurement | |---------|--------|-------------| | Categorization | 10/10 | All tag operations complete | | Search | 10/10 | Boolean + ranking + fuzzy | | Knowledge Graph | 10/10 | Validation + hierarchy | | Export | 10/10 | All formats + import | | Timestamps | 10/10 | Full history + rollback | | Nesting | 8/10 | Hierarchy + structured obs | | Compression | 8/10 | Duplicate + semantic + LLM | | Archiving | 8/10 | Auto-archive + search | ### Performance Targets - Load 10k entities: < 1 second - Search 10k entities: < 100ms - Export 10k entities: < 2 seconds - Import 10k entities: < 3 seconds ### Tool Count - **Current:** 30 tools - **After Tier 0:** 39 tools (+9) - **After Nesting:** 47 tools (+8) - **After Compression:** 53 tools (+6) - **After Archiving:** 60 tools (+7) - **Total Target:** 60 tools (+30 from start) --- ## Risk Assessment ### High Risk - **LLM Integration:** Depends on external API - Mitigation: Make optional, provide fallback - **Performance:** Large graphs may be slow - Mitigation: Caching, indexing, batch operations - **Data Migration:** Breaking changes to schema - Mitigation: Backward compatibility, migration scripts ### Medium Risk - **Complexity:** Many new features may introduce bugs - Mitigation: Comprehensive testing, staged rollout - **User Experience:** Too many tools may confuse users - Mitigation: Good documentation, examples, guides ### Low Risk - **Storage:** Multiple files may be harder to manage - Mitigation: Clear file structure, documentation --- ## Conclusion This comprehensive improvement plan outlines a clear path to: 1. **Complete Tier 0 features** (Week 2) - Perfect existing capabilities 2. **Add hierarchical nesting** - Organize entities with parent-child relationships 3. **Implement compression** - Reduce memory bloat with smart compression 4. **Enable archiving** - Manage memory lifecycle with archive storage **Total Estimated Timeline:** 20-30 days of development **Final State:** - 60 MCP tools (from 15 original) - 8 storage files (organized by concern) - All feature categories at 8-10/10 - Production-ready memory management system **Next Steps:** 1. Review and approve this plan 2. Start Week 2 implementation (C1, C3, D1, D2) 3. Proceed with Phase 2-4 as outlined 4. Comprehensive testing and documentation --- *Document Version: 1.0* *Last Updated: 2025-11-23* *Status: Ready for Implementation*
