## ✨ What's New in v1.1.0

### 🔗 **Entry Relationships**
Link entries with typed relationships to build your knowledge graph:
- `evolves_from` - Track how ideas develop
- `references` - Connect related work
- `implements` - Link implementations to specs
- `clarifies` - Add explanations
- `response_to` - Thread conversations

### 📊 **Visual Relationship Mapping**
Generate beautiful Mermaid diagrams to visualize how your entries connect:

```mermaid
graph TD
    E55["#55: Implementing visualization feature<br/>development_note"]
    E56["#56: Testing the new tool<br/>technical_note"]
    E57["#57: Documentation improvements<br/>enhancement"]
    
    E56 ==>|implements| E55
    E57 -.->|clarifies| E55
    
    style E55 fill:#FFF3E0
    style E56 fill:#FFF3E0
    style E57 fill:#FFF3E0
```

**New Tools:**
- `visualize_relationships` - Generate graph visualizations with depth control and tag filtering
- `link_entries` - Create typed relationships between entries
- `update_entry` - Edit existing entries
- `delete_entry` - Soft or permanent deletion
- `get_entry_by_id` - Retrieve entries with full relationship details
- `search_by_date_range` - Time-based filtering
- `get_statistics` - Comprehensive analytics
- `export_entries` - JSON/Markdown export

**New Resources:**
- `memory://graph/recent` - Live relationship graph of recent entries

**Enhanced Features:**
- ⚡ **10x faster startup** - Lazy loading of ML dependencies (~2-3 seconds vs 14 seconds)
- 🔒 **Thread-safe tag creation** - Zero race conditions
- 🛡️ **Database lock prevention** - Single-connection transactions
- 🎨 **8 workflow prompts** - Standups, retros, weekly digests, goal tracking

## 🚀 Quick Start

### Option 1: PyPI (Fastest - 30 seconds)

```bash
# Install
pip install memory-journal-mcp

# Add to ~/.cursor/mcp.json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "memory-journal": {
      "command": "memory-journal-mcp"
    }
  }
}

# Restart Cursor → Start journaling!
```

### Option 2: Docker (Full Features - 2 minutes)

```bash
# Pull image
docker pull writenotenow/memory-journal-mcp:latest

# Create data directory
mkdir data

# Add to ~/.cursor/mcp.json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "memory-journal": {
      "command": "docker",
      "args": [
        "run", "--rm", "-i", 
        "-v", "./data:/app/data",
        "writenotenow/memory-journal-mcp:latest",
        "python", "src/server.py"
      ]
    }
  }
}

# Restart Cursor → Start journaling!
```

## 📋 Core Capabilities

### 🛠️ **15 MCP Tools**
Complete CRUD operations, triple search system (FTS5 + date + semantic), relationships, analytics, and data export.

### 🎯 **8 Workflow Prompts**
Interactive prompts for standups, retrospectives, weekly digests, period analysis, goal tracking, and context bundles.

### 🔍 **Triple Search System**
- **Full-text search** - SQLite FTS5 with highlighting
- **Date range search** - Time-based filtering with tags
- **Semantic search** - FAISS vector similarity (optional)

### 🔗 **Entry Relationships**
Build a knowledge graph with typed relationships and visualize connections with Mermaid diagrams.

### 📊 **Comprehensive Analytics**
Track entry counts, top tags, activity patterns by week/month, and significant milestones.

### 🎨 **Visual Relationship Graphs**
Generate Mermaid diagrams showing how entries connect, with customizable depth and filtering.

### 🔄 **Git & GitHub Integration**
Auto-captures commits, branches, repo info, and recent issues for project context.

### 📦 **Data Export**
Export to JSON or Markdown with flexible filtering by date, tags, and entry types.

## 📖 Usage Examples

### Create an Entry with Relationships

```javascript
// Create a technical achievement
create_entry({
  content: "Implemented lazy loading for ML dependencies - 10x faster startup!",
  entry_type: "technical_achievement",
  tags: ["performance", "optimization", "ml"],
  significance_type: "technical_breakthrough"
})
// Returns: Entry #55

// Link related work
link_entries({
  from_entry_id: 56,  // Testing entry
  to_entry_id: 55,    // Implementation
  relationship_type: "implements"
})

// Visualize the connections
visualize_relationships({
  entry_id: 55,
  depth: 2
})
```

### Search and Analyze

```javascript
// Full-text search with highlighting
search_entries({ query: "performance optimization", limit: 5 })

// Semantic search for concepts
semantic_search({ query: "startup time improvements", limit: 3 })

// Date range with tags
search_by_date_range({
  start_date: "2025-10-01",
  end_date: "2025-10-31",
  tags: ["performance"]
})

// Get analytics
get_statistics({ group_by: "week" })
```

### Generate Visual Maps

```javascript
// Visualize entry relationships
visualize_relationships({
  entry_id: 55,  // Root entry
  depth: 2       // 2 hops out
})

// Filter by tags
visualize_relationships({
  tags: ["visualization", "relationships"],
  limit: 20
})

// Access live graph resource
memory://graph/recent  // Most recent 20 entries with relationships
```

## 🔧 Technical Highlights

### Performance & Security
- **10x faster startup** - Lazy loading of ML dependencies (2-3s vs 14s)
- **Thread-safe operations** - Zero race conditions in tag creation
- **WAL mode** - Better concurrency and crash recovery
- **Database lock prevention** - Single-connection transactions
- **Aggressive timeouts** - Git operations fail-fast (2s per command)
- **Input validation** - Length limits, parameterized queries, SQL injection prevention

### Semantic Search (Optional)
- **Model**: `all-MiniLM-L6-v2` (384-dimensional embeddings)
- **Storage**: FAISS index for fast similarity search
- **Graceful degradation**: Works perfectly without ML dependencies

### Data & Privacy
- **Local-first**: Single SQLite file, you own your data
- **Portable**: Move your `.db` file anywhere
- **Secure**: No external API calls, non-root Docker containers
