Unreleased

Added

C3.9: Project Documentation Extraction

Markdown Documentation Extraction: Automatically extracts and categorizes all .md files from projects
- Smart categorization by folder/filename (overview, architecture, guides, workflows, features, etc.)
- Processing depth control: surface (raw copy), deep (parse+summarize), full (AI-enhanced)
- AI enhancement (level 2+) adds topic extraction and cross-references
- New "📖 Project Documentation" section in SKILL.md
- Output to references/documentation/ organized by category
- Default ON, use --skip-docs to disable
- 15 new tests for documentation extraction features

Granular AI Enhancement Control

--enhance-level Flag: Fine-grained control over AI enhancement (0-3)
- Level 0: No AI enhancement (default)
- Level 1: SKILL.md enhancement only (fast, high value)
- Level 2: SKILL.md + Architecture + Config + Documentation
- Level 3: Full enhancement (patterns, tests, config, architecture, docs)
Config Integration: default_enhance_level setting in ~/.config/skill-seekers/config.json
MCP Support: All MCP tools updated with enhance_level parameter
Independent from --comprehensive: Enhancement level is separate from feature depth

C# Language Support

C# Test Example Extraction: Full support for C# test frameworks
- Language alias mapping (C# → csharp, C++ → cpp)
- NUnit, xUnit, MSTest test framework patterns
- Mock pattern support (NSubstitute, Moq)
- Zenject dependency injection patterns
- Setup/teardown method extraction
- 2 new tests for C# extraction features

Performance Optimizations

Parallel LOCAL Mode AI Enhancement: 6-12x faster with ThreadPoolExecutor
- Concurrent workers: 3 (configurable via local_parallel_workers)
- Batch processing: 20 patterns per Claude CLI call (configurable via local_batch_size)
- Significant speedup for large codebases
Config Settings: New ai_enhancement section in config
- local_batch_size: Patterns per CLI call (default: 20)
- local_parallel_workers: Concurrent workers (default: 3)

UX Improvements

Auto-Enhancement: SKILL.md automatically enhanced when using --enhance or --comprehensive
- No need for separate skill-seekers enhance command
- Seamless one-command workflow
- 10-minute timeout for large codebases
- Graceful fallback with retry instructions on failure
LOCAL Mode Fallback: All AI enhancements now fall back to LOCAL mode when no API key is set
- Applies to: pattern enhancement (C3.1), test examples (C3.2), architecture (C3.7)
- Uses Claude Code CLI instead of failing silently
- Better UX: "Using LOCAL mode (Claude Code CLI)" instead of "AI disabled"
Support for custom Claude-compatible API endpoints via ANTHROPIC_BASE_URL environment variable
Compatibility with GLM-4.7 and other Claude-compatible APIs across all AI enhancement features

Changed

All AI enhancement modules now respect ANTHROPIC_BASE_URL for custom endpoints
Updated documentation with GLM-4.7 configuration examples
Rewritten LOCAL mode in config_enhancer.py to use Claude CLI properly with explicit output file paths
Updated MCP scrape_codebase_tool with skip_docs and enhance_level parameters
Updated CLAUDE.md with C3.9 documentation extraction feature and --enhance-level flag
Increased default batch size from 5 to 20 patterns for LOCAL mode

Fixed

C# Test Extraction: Fixed "Language C# not supported" error with language alias mapping
Config Type Field Mismatch: Fixed KeyError in config_enhancer.py by supporting both "type" and "config_type" fields
LocalSkillEnhancer Import: Fixed incorrect import and method call in main.py (SkillEnhancer → LocalSkillEnhancer)
Code Quality: Fixed 4 critical linter errors (unused imports, variables, arguments, import sorting)

Removed

Removed client-specific documentation files from repository

[2.7.4] - 2026-01-22

🔧 Bug Fix - Language Selector Links

This patch release fixes the broken Chinese language selector link that appeared on PyPI and other non-GitHub platforms.

Fixed

Broken Language Selector Links on PyPI
- Issue: Chinese language link used relative URL (README.zh-CN.md) which only worked on GitHub
- Impact: Users on PyPI clicking "简体中文" got 404 errors
- Solution: Changed to absolute GitHub URL (https://github.com/yusufkaraaslan/Skill_Seekers/blob/main/README.zh-CN.md)
- Result: Language selector now works on PyPI, GitHub, and all platforms
- Files Fixed: README.md, README.zh-CN.md

Technical Details

Why This Happened:

PyPI displays README.md but doesn't include README.zh-CN.md in the package
Relative links break when README is rendered outside GitHub repository context
Absolute GitHub URLs work universally across all platforms

Impact:

✅ Chinese language link now accessible from PyPI
✅ Consistent experience across all platforms
✅ Better user experience for Chinese developers

[2.7.3] - 2026-01-21

[2.7.2] - 2026-01-21

🚨 Critical CLI Bug Fixes

This hotfix release resolves 4 critical CLI bugs reported in issues #258 and #259 that prevented core commands from working correctly.

Fixed

Issue #258: install --config command fails with unified scraper (#258)
- Root Cause: unified_scraper.py missing --fresh and --dry-run argument definitions
- Solution: Added both flags to unified_scraper argument parser and main.py dispatcher
- Impact: skill-seekers install --config react now works without "unrecognized arguments" error
- Files Fixed: src/skill_seekers/cli/unified_scraper.py, src/skill_seekers/cli/main.py
Issue #259 (Original): scrape command doesn't accept URL and --max-pages (#259)
- Root Cause: No positional URL argument or --max-pages flag support
- Solution: Added positional URL argument and --max-pages flag with safety warnings
- Impact: skill-seekers scrape https://example.com --max-pages 50 now works
- Safety Warnings:
  - ⚠️ Warning if max-pages > 1000 (may take hours)
  - ⚠️ Warning if max-pages < 10 (incomplete skill)
- Files Fixed: src/skill_seekers/cli/doc_scraper.py, src/skill_seekers/cli/main.py
Issue #259 (Comment A): Version shows 2.7.0 instead of actual version (#259)
- Root Cause: Hardcoded version string in main.py
- Solution: Import __version__ from __init__.py dynamically
- Impact: skill-seekers --version now shows correct version (2.7.2)
- Files Fixed: src/skill_seekers/cli/main.py
Issue #259 (Comment B): PDF command shows empty "Error: " message (#259)
- Root Cause: Exception handler didn't handle empty exception messages
- Solution:
  - Improved exception handler to show exception type if message is empty
  - Added proper error handling with context-specific messages
  - Added traceback support in verbose mode
- Impact: PDF errors now show clear messages like "Error: RuntimeError occurred" instead of just "Error: "
- Files Fixed: src/skill_seekers/cli/main.py, src/skill_seekers/cli/pdf_scraper.py

Testing

✅ Verified skill-seekers install --config react --dry-run works
✅ Verified skill-seekers scrape https://tailwindcss.com/docs/installation --max-pages 50 works
✅ Verified skill-seekers --version shows "2.7.2"
✅ Verified PDF errors show proper messages
✅ All 202 tests passing

[2.7.1] - 2026-01-18

🚨 Critical Bug Fix - Config Download 404 Errors

This hotfix release resolves a critical bug causing 404 errors when downloading configs from the API.

Fixed

Critical: Config download 404 errors - Fixed bug where code was constructing download URLs manually instead of using the download_url field from the API response
- Root Cause: Code was building f"{API_BASE_URL}/api/download/{config_name}.json" which failed when actual URLs differed (CDN URLs, version-specific paths)
- Solution: Changed to use config_info.get("download_url") from API response in both MCP server implementations
- Files Fixed:
  - src/skill_seekers/mcp/tools/source_tools.py (FastMCP server)
  - src/skill_seekers/mcp/server_legacy.py (Legacy server)
- Impact: Fixes all config downloads from skillseekersweb.com API and private Git repositories
- Reported By: User testing skill-seekers install --config godot --unlimited
- Testing: All 15 source tools tests pass, all 8 fetch_config tests pass
