- API mode: For pattern/example enhancement (batch processing)
- LOCAL mode: For SKILL.md enhancement (opens Claude Code terminal)
- Both modes still available, serve different purposes
- Updated CHANGELOG to explain when to use each mode
BREAKING CHANGE: All codebase analysis features are now enabled by default
This improves user experience by maximizing value out-of-the-box. Users
now get all analysis features (API reference, dependency graph, pattern
detection, test example extraction) without needing to know about flags.
Changes:
- Changed flag pattern from --build-* to --skip-* for better discoverability
- Updated function signature: all analysis features default to True
- Inverted boolean logic: --skip-* flags disable features
- Added backward compatibility warnings for deprecated --build-* flags
- Updated help text and usage examples
Migration:
- Remove old --build-* flags from your scripts (features now ON by default)
- Use new --skip-* flags to disable specific features if needed
Old (DEPRECATED):
codebase-scraper --directory . --build-api-reference --build-dependency-graph
New:
codebase-scraper --directory . # All features enabled by default
codebase-scraper --directory . --skip-patterns # Disable specific features
Rationale:
- Users should get maximum value by default
- Explicit opt-out is better than hidden opt-in
- Improves feature discoverability
- Aligns with user expectations from C2 and C3 features
Testing:
- All 107 codebase analysis tests passing
- Backward compatibility warnings working correctly
- Help text updated correctly

- Add _get_file_content() helper method to detect and follow symlinks
- Update _extract_readme() to use new helper
- Update _extract_changelog() to use new helper
- Add 7 comprehensive tests for symlink handling
- All 29 GitHub scraper tests passing
Fixes#225
When README.md or CHANGELOG.md are symlinks (like in vercel/ai repo),
PyGithub returns ContentFile with type='symlink' and encoding=None.
Direct access to decoded_content throws AssertionError.
Solution: Detect symlink type, follow target path, then decode actual file.
Handles edge cases: broken symlinks, missing targets, encoding errors.

Add _check_skill_completeness() method to quality checker that validates:
- Prerequisites/verification sections (helps Claude check conditions first)
- Error handling/troubleshooting guidance (common issues and solutions)
- Workflow steps (sequential instructions using first/then/next/finally)
This addresses G2.3 and G2.4 from the roadmap:
- G2.3: Add readability scoring (via workflow step detection)
- G2.4: Add completeness checker
New checks use info-level messages (not warnings) to avoid affecting
quality scores for existing skills while still providing helpful guidance.
Includes 4 new unit tests for completeness checks.

Fixes#209 - UnicodeDecodeError on Windows with non-ASCII characters
**Problem:**
Windows users with non-English locales (Chinese, Japanese, Korean, etc.)
experienced GBK/SHIFT-JIS codec errors when the system default encoding
is not UTF-8.
Error: 'gbk' codec can't decode byte 0xac in position 206: illegal
multibyte sequence
**Root Cause:**
File operations using open() without explicit encoding parameter use
the system default encoding, which on Windows Chinese edition is GBK.
JSON files contain UTF-8 encoded characters that fail to decode with GBK.
**Solution:**
Added encoding='utf-8' to ALL file operations across:
- doc_scraper.py (4 instances):
* load_config() - line 1310
* check_existing_data() - line 1416
* save_checkpoint() - line 173
* load_checkpoint() - line 186
- github_scraper.py (1 instance):
* main() config loading - line 922
- unified_scraper.py (10 instances):
* All JSON read/write operations - lines 134, 153, 205, 239, 275,
278, 325, 328, 342, 364
**Test Results:**
- ✅ All 612 tests passing (100% pass rate)
- ✅ Backward compatible (UTF-8 is standard on Linux/macOS)
- ✅ Fixes Windows locale issues
**Impact:**
- ✅ Works on ALL Windows locales (Chinese, Japanese, Korean, etc.)
- ✅ Maintains compatibility with Linux/macOS
- ✅ Prevents future encoding issues
**Thanks to:** @my5icol for the detailed bug report and fix suggestion!
Fixes#214 - Local enhancement now handles large skills automatically
**Problem:**
- Claude CLI has undocumented ~30-40K character limit
- Large skills (>30K chars) fail silently during local enhancement
- Users experience "Claude finished but SKILL.md was not updated" error
**Solution:**
- Auto-detect large skills (>30K chars)
- Apply intelligent summarization to reduce content size
- Preserve critical content:
* First 20% (introduction/overview)
* Up to 5 best code blocks
* Up to 10 section headings with context
- Target ~30% of original size
- Show clear warnings when summarization is applied
**Implementation:**
- Added `summarize_reference()` method to LocalSkillEnhancer
- Modified `create_enhancement_prompt()` to accept summarization parameters
- Updated `run()` method to auto-enable summarization for large skills
- Added comprehensive test suite (6 tests)
**Test Results:**
- ✅ All 612 tests passing (100% pass rate)
- ✅ 6 new smart summarization tests
- ✅ E2E test: 60K skill → 17K prompt (within limits)
- ✅ Code block preservation verified
**User Experience:**
When enhancement is triggered on a large skill:
```
⚠️ LARGE SKILL DETECTED
📊 Reference content: 60,072 characters
💡 Claude CLI limit: ~30,000-40,000 characters
🔧 Applying smart summarization to ensure success...
• Keeping introductions and overviews
• Extracting best code examples
• Preserving key concepts and headings
• Target: ~30% of original size
✓ Reduced from 60,072 to 15,685 chars (26%)
✓ Prompt created and optimized (17,804 characters)
✓ Ready for Claude CLI (within safe limits)
```

This commit fixes three critical limitations discovered during local repository skill extraction testing:
**Fix 1: Code Analyzer Import Issue**
- Changed unified_scraper.py to use absolute imports instead of relative imports
- Fixed: `from github_scraper import` → `from skill_seekers.cli.github_scraper import`
- Fixed: `from pdf_scraper import` → `from skill_seekers.cli.pdf_scraper import`
- Result: CodeAnalyzer now available during extraction, deep analysis works
**Fix 2: Unity Library Exclusions**
- Updated should_exclude_dir() to accept and check full directory paths
- Updated _extract_file_tree_local() to pass both dir name and full path
- Added exclusion config passing from unified_scraper to github_scraper
- Result: exclude_dirs_additional now works (297 files excluded in test)
**Fix 3: AI Enhancement for Single Sources**
- Changed read_reference_files() to use rglob() for recursive search
- Now finds reference files in subdirectories (e.g., references/github/README.md)
- Result: AI enhancement works with unified skills that have nested references
**Test Results:**
- Code Analyzer: ✅ Working (deep analysis running)
- Unity Exclusions: ✅ Working (297 files excluded from 679)
- AI Enhancement: ✅ Working (finds and reads nested references)
**Files Changed:**
- src/skill_seekers/cli/unified_scraper.py (Fix 1 & 2)
- src/skill_seekers/cli/github_scraper.py (Fix 2)
- src/skill_seekers/cli/utils.py (Fix 3)
**Test Artifacts:**
- configs/deck_deck_go_local.json (test configuration)

Issue: #11 (A1.3 test failures)
## Problem
3/8 tests were failing because ConfigValidator only validates structure
and required fields, NOT format validation (names, URLs, etc.).
## Root Cause
ConfigValidator checks:
- Required fields (name, description, sources/base_url)
- Source types validity
- Field types (arrays, integers)
ConfigValidator does NOT check:
- Name format (alphanumeric, hyphens, underscores)
- URL format (http:// or https://)
## Solution
Added additional format validation in submit_config_tool after ConfigValidator:
1. Name format validation using regex: `^[a-zA-Z0-9_-]+$`
2. URL format validation (must start with http:// or https://)
3. Validates both legacy (base_url) and unified (sources.base_url) formats
## Test Results
Before: 5/8 tests passing, 3 failing
After: 8/8 tests passing ✅
Full suite: 427 tests passing, 40 skipped ✅
## Changes Made
- src/skill_seekers/mcp/server.py:
* Added `import re` at top of file
* Added name format validation (line 1280-1281)
* Added URL format validation for legacy configs (line 1285-1289)
* Added URL format validation for unified configs (line 1291-1296)
- tests/test_mcp_server.py:
* Updated test_submit_config_validates_required_fields to accept
ConfigValidator's correct error message ("cannot detect" instead of "description")
## Validation Examples
Invalid name: "React@2024!" → ❌ "Invalid name format"
Invalid URL: "not-a-url" → ❌ "Invalid base_url format"
Valid name: "react-docs" → ✅
