└── rules/                    # Legacy JSON files (auto-migrated to DB)
```

### Hybrid Storage Benefits

- **Drizzle ORM**: 3-10x faster CRUD operations with type-safe queries
- **Vector Storage**: AI-powered semantic search and similarity matching
- **Automatic Migration**: Seamless migration from file-based to hybrid storage
- **Performance**: Optimized database operations with indexing and caching
- **Type Safety**: Full TypeScript support with compiled queries

## Hybrid Storage Implementation

The code-guider now uses a **hybrid storage approach** that combines the best of both worlds:

### Drizzle ORM (Fast CRUD Operations)

- **3-10x faster** CRUD operations compared to file-based storage
- **Type-safe queries** with full TypeScript support
- **Database indexing** for optimized lookups
- **ACID transactions** for data integrity
- **Connection pooling** and query optimization

### Vector Storage (AI Features)

- **Semantic search** using vector embeddings
- **Similarity matching** for finding related code
- **AI-powered suggestions** based on content similarity
- **Pattern recognition** across your codebase

### Migration System

The system automatically migrates from the legacy file-based storage to the new hybrid approach:

```bash
# Run migration (first time only)
npm run migrate
```

This will:

1. Create the SQLite database with proper schema
2. Migrate existing workflows, templates, and rules
3. Generate vector embeddings for semantic search
4. Preserve all existing data and functionality

### Performance Comparison

| Operation          | File-based        | Hybrid Storage  | LibSQL            | Improvement       |
| ------------------ | ----------------- | --------------- | ----------------- | ----------------- |
| Write (100 items)  | 50-100ms          | 10-20ms         | 3-8ms             | **6-15x faster**  |
| Read (100 items)   | 20-50ms           | 5-15ms          | 2-5ms             | **4-20x faster**  |
| Search (100 items) | 30-80ms           | 2-10ms          | 1-3ms             | **10-25x faster** |
| Build Time         | 2-5s (tsc)        | 1-2s (tsc)      | 200-500ms (bun)   | **4-10x faster**  |
| Memory Usage       | High (all data)   | Low (streaming) | Minimal (pure JS) | **5-50x less**    |
| Concurrent Reads   | Poor (file locks) | Excellent (WAL) | Excellent (WAL)   | **3-10x better**  |

TDQS

C2.2/5.0

Scored across 25 tools

Disambiguation2/5

Several tools have highly overlapping purposes: manage_workflows, start_workflow, get_workflow, list_workflows, auto_detect_workflow all relate to workflows but with unclear boundaries. Additionally, transition_role and transition_role_workflow appear to do essentially the same thing (both 'transition to a different role in workflow execution'), and there are two metrics tools (get_metrics, get_execution_metrics) with overlapping descriptions. The 'manage_*' family and the specific workflow tools create significant ambiguity about which tool to select.

Naming Consistency2/5

The naming is inconsistent with mixed conventions. Some tools use a 'manage_X' prefix pattern (manage_quality_rules, manage_workflows, manage_templates), while others use verb_front patterns (start_workflow, get_guidance, report_completion, pause_execution), and some mix style (ai_migrate, init_samples using abbreviations). There are also duplicates with different names (transition_role vs transition_role_workflow, get_metrics vs get_execution_metrics) indicating no coherent naming scheme.

Tool Count2/5

25 tools is on the heavy side for an MCP server. Several tools appear to be near-duplicates (transition_role vs transition_role_workflow, get_metrics vs get_execution_metrics), which inflates the count. The 'manage_*' and role/workflow concepts overlap heavily, suggesting the surface could be significantly consolidated. This feels somewhat bloated for the scope of a workflow guidance server.

Completeness3/5

The workflow lifecycle is reasonably covered: start, list, get, pause, resume, report completion, transition roles, get guidance, and metrics. However, there's no explicit cancel/stop operation, no obvious tool for listing or getting execution details directly (only metrics), and the relationship between 'manage_execution', 'pause_execution', 'resume_execution', and 'start_workflow' is unclear. The gap between auto-detection/init_samples and the actual workflow tools suggests some portions are underdeveloped.
