…d test coverage - Add strict ESLint configuration with TypeScript rules - Implement complete error handling system with typed errors - Add security validation with rate limiting and content sanitization - Add health checking and metrics collection - Refactor code for maintainability (extracted sub-methods, reduced complexity) - Replace all 'any' types with proper TypeScript types - Add comprehensive test suite (131 tests across 9 files) - Fix all TypeScript compilation errors - Achieve zero ESLint errors (1 intentional warning) Key improvements: - security-service.ts: Complete rewrite with proper error types - health-checker.ts: Fixed Promise.allSettled handling and types - lib.ts: Extracted methods to reduce complexity - config.ts: Modularized config loading - All tests passing with proper async/await patterns Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
…bustness Hardening ## Summary Implemented comprehensive hardening addressing 18 source fixes and 12 test improvements (208→236 tests). ## Source Fixes - Fixed regex statefulness: 'gi' → 'i' flags (config.ts) - Performance: CircularBuffer replaces Array.shift() in metrics (O(n) → O(1)) - Memory: Capped uniqueBranchIds Set at 10k, added destroy() to metrics - Configuration: Health thresholds now configurable via AppConfig + env vars - Rate limiting: Implemented sliding-window per-session validation - Error handling: try/catch wrapping, silent error logging - Logger: Circular reference detection (WeakSet), word-boundary field matching - Session stats: Numeric timestamps instead of Date objects - Safety: Double-destroy guard in container, required destroy() methods ## Test Coverage - Rate limiting enforcement (in/out of limit, per-session, empty sessionId) - Metrics destroy() state reset, circular buffer averaging with 150+ entries - Health thresholds customization, error rate clamping (>100% scenario) - Logger circular refs and sensitive field word-boundary matching - Session numeric timestamp expiry via fake timers - Container double-destroy safety ## Verification ✓ TypeScript: 0 errors ✓ ESLint: 0 errors ✓ Vitest: 236 tests passing Co-Authored-By: Claude Haiku 4.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
- CircularBuffer: Add comprehensive documentation explaining modular arithmetic formula and wrap-around handling - Rate limiting: Implement proactive cleanup of expired sessions when approaching 10k limit (90% threshold) to prevent memory bloat - Logger: Expand sensitive fields list to include apiKey, accessKey, privateKey, sessionToken for enhanced data protection All changes maintain backward compatibility, pass all 236 tests, and ESLint.

…ustness ## Summary Addressed 5 critical architectural flaws identified through deep code analysis, eliminating redundancy, consolidating session tracking, and improving performance. ## Fix 1: Eliminate storage.ts double-wrapping (2x shallow copy → 1x) - Removed SecureThoughtStorage wrapper class (storage.ts deleted) - BoundedThoughtManager now directly implements ThoughtStorage interface - Moved session ID generation logic into state-manager - Result: One shallow copy per request instead of two ## Fix 2: Unify validate-then-sanitize logic - Reordered: sanitization now runs BEFORE validation - Removes harmful patterns (javascript:, eval() via regex replacement - Then validates cleaned content for remaining blocked patterns - Eliminates contradiction where validator rejected what sanitizer would clean - Pattern: sanitize → validate → store (linear, no conflicts) ## Fix 3: Consolidate session tracking (3 Maps → 1 unified tracker) - Created SessionTracker class to replace triple tracking: * state-manager.sessionStats (1h expiry) * security-service.requestLog (60s window) * metrics.recentSessionIds (1h expiry) - Single cleanup mechanism with consistent 1-hour expiry - Shared rate limiting window (60s) across all services - Injected via container as singleton - Result: Unified expiry logic, no inconsistent session counts ## Fix 4: Deduplicate thought length validation (3 places → 1) - Single validation in lib.ts validateStructure() with clear ValidationError - Removed duplicate checks from: * security-service.ts (was throwing SecurityError) * state-manager.ts (was throwing StateError) - Validation happens once, early, with correct error type - Config value (maxThoughtLength) checked in single location ## Fix 5: Move metrics cleanup off hot path - Session cleanup removed from recordThoughtProcessed() (called every request) - SessionTracker now handles cleanup on background timer - No more linear scan of sessions on every thought processed - Result: Request path no longer blocks on cleanup iteration ## Breaking Changes - Tests expecting SecurityError for length now get ValidationError - Tests expecting blocked patterns now see sanitized content pass validation - Session count behavior changed (tracked globally, not per-storage) ## Test Status - 226/231 tests passing (5 test expectations need updating for new behavior) - TypeScript: 0 errors - ESLint: 0 errors - Core functionality verified working Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
…ests This commit addresses critical architectural issues identified through deep analysis: ## Fix 1: Race condition in rate limit recording (HIGH) - Moved recordThought() from state-manager to security-service - Now called immediately after rate limit check to prevent race conditions - Ensures atomic check-and-record operation - Added 7 comprehensive tests in race-condition.test.ts ## Fix 2: Remove dead getSessionStats() method (MEDIUM) - Deleted unused getSessionStats() from session-tracker.ts - Method was never called and exposed incomplete API surface - Cleaned up dead code ## Fix 3: Eliminate dual branch tracking (HIGH) - Removed uniqueBranchIds Set from metrics.ts - Metrics now queries storage directly for branch count (single source of truth) - Prevents data inconsistency between metrics and storage - Added 6 comprehensive tests in branch-tracking.test.ts ## Fix 4: Validate session IDs at entry point (HIGH) - Enhanced resolveSession() in lib.ts to validate user-provided sessionIds upfront - Fails fast with clear error messages instead of silently replacing invalid IDs - Preserves user intent and prevents confusion - Added 19 comprehensive tests in session-validation.test.ts covering: - Valid/invalid formats - Length boundaries (1-100 chars) - Generation when not provided - User intent preservation - Edge cases (special chars, Unicode) ## Fix 5: Replace array cleanup with CircularBuffer (MEDIUM) - Replaced requestTimestamps and thoughtTimestamps arrays with CircularBuffer(1000) - Eliminated O(n) cleanupOldTimestamps() method - Now uses O(1) add() and efficient filtering - Changed filter condition from >= to > for correct 60-second window - Added 16 comprehensive tests in timestamp-tracking.test.ts covering: - Timestamp filtering accuracy - CircularBuffer overflow behavior (>1000 entries) - Mixed request/thought tracking - Boundary conditions - Destroy cleanup - Performance characteristics ## Test Updates - Fixed rate limiting tests to account for automatic recordThought() - Fixed state-manager tests to manually record sessions (no longer automatic) - Fixed metrics test to add thoughts to storage (branch count from storage) - Fixed server tests for sanitize-first behavior - All 272 tests passing ## Verification - TypeScript: 0 errors - ESLint: 0 errors on source files - Tests: 272/272 passing Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

The Dockerfile was missing the build step, causing Docker images to be non-functional because the dist/ directory was never created. Changes: - Replace `npm ci --ignore-scripts --omit-dev` with `npm run build` - This ensures TypeScript is compiled to JavaScript during build - The dist/ directory is now properly created and copied to release image The build process now works correctly: 1. Install all dependencies (including devDependencies for build) 2. Run `npm run build` to compile TypeScript -> JavaScript 3. Copy built dist/ directory to release image 4. Install only production dependencies in release image Fixes the Docker installation method documented in README.

Docker Fix
Critical Bug Fixed: The Dockerfile was non-functional due to missing build step.
Problem:
npm ci --ignore-scripts --omit-devwhich skipped the TypeScript compilationdist/directory was never createdSolution:
RUN npm run buildto properly compile TypeScriptnpm run build)dist/to release imageImpact: Docker installation method now actually works as documented.
