# Changelog

## 1.8.1 — production gate

- Live functionality matrix (`scripts/func_test.py`): every destination,
  both graph engines, both archives, ask on both SQL targets — 18/18.
- Fixed: LanceDB schema stability (JSON-string payloads), pgvector
  per-document rollback, MariaDB stale-dimension guard, Weaviate IPv4
  pin, LightRAG ≥ 1.5 async lifecycle, Milvus Lite lock release
  (`close()` lifecycle + open retry).
- `pyflakes` clean across package, scripts, and tests.

## 1.8.0 — the workstation's filesystem

- `/mnt/AI` layout awareness: `corpus/cold` → IN, `corpus/hot` → vault,
  `corpus/archive` for the bz2 stage; `THICKET_AI_ROOT` override.
- `~` and `$VAR` expansion through one shared `expand_path`.

## 1.7.x — destinations, not stages

- TARGET selects the destination: `obsidian` (notes only) or any vector
  store (notes + that store). Vault/vector checkboxes removed.
- Sources are never deleted: archive stage moves verified sources to
  `ingested-archive/` and bzip2-compresses them (streaming, level 9).
- Skip-unchanged (content-hash manifest), MAX MB guard, custom notes dir.
- Dynamic Paths panel: live OUT resolution per target; status footer
  follows the target selector; per-target connection hints.

## 1.5.0–1.6.0 — technical corpora

- Code-preserving chunker: fenced blocks atomic with language tags,
  paragraph-aligned prose, shebang-safe headings, line-windowed
  oversized blocks.
- 21 source/config extensions ingest as language-tagged listings.
- Embedder catalog: jina-code default (English + code), bge-base,
  bge-small; chunk payloads carry `chunk_kind` / `lang`.

## 1.4.0 — graphs, ask, objects

- Graphify engine beside LightRAG (`--graph-engine`).
- ASK: natural-language SQL over pgvector/MariaDB corpora (Vanna 2
  agent + Ollama; CLI and console).
- MinIO archive stage (object storage for originals).

## 1.2.0–1.3.0 — ten vector targets

- qdrant, chroma, lancedb, faiss, milvus, weaviate, pgvector, duckdb,
  sqlite-vec, mariadb — one registry, one payload schema, cosine-score
  parity to four decimals.

## 1.0.0–1.1.0 — the console

- MMD3 console (OpenTranscode lineage): LED queue table, phosphor log,
  knobs, live probe. Qt-free pipeline core shared by GUI and CLI.
