This devlog is COVERING A LOT of stuff that i did, but im not gonna drag this over like i did from all other devlogs so heres are the features:

covering from v0.9.1-beta to v0.9.5-beta, see release-history.json for the full changelog

Features added

• Added RAG TOOLS including

  • getStatus - returns the status of the RAG
  • getCommands - with enhanced filtering (filter by name, usage hint, id, category and fuzzy filter (makes it easier for RAG to find commands))
  • getReleaseInfo - returns the release info of the CURRENT version and (optionally) any other version (pass it by parameter)
  • runCommand - runs a command by id
  • getLogs - returns recent logs for the RAG to inspect (max 100, default 20)
  • getMetrics - returns the metrics of the RAG (memory usage, cpu usage, etc)
  • getRoutes - returns the routes of the APIs

• added 3 new scripts (npm run) which are

  • rag - runs the RAG with or without the --ai flag to see context/answer cli
  • rag:use-tool - runs a tool by name (with optional parameters)
  • release - appends current release notes from package.json to release-history.json.

• Added new endpoints

  • /api/telemetry - returns the telemetry history separately from the main status endpoint
  • /api/command/:id - gets or executes a command by id
  • /api/telemetry/stream - streams telemetry updates using SSE
  • /api/admin/server-events - returns server events for the admin dashboard
  • /api/ask - now uses SSE to stream the RAG’s activity (yers now we can see the RAG in aciton), context, tool usage, token usage and final response

• dashboard imporvements

  • added a seperate admin server events page (wevent searching, filtering, prioritisation and stylying)
  • added a command runner on the command page
  • fixed recent activity not showing up on the dashboard

• Added visible AI activity to the AI page

  • the RAG now emits activity events while processing a question
  • AI page is cached on localStorage so you can go back and forth between pages without losing the AI page state

• Improved the RAG’s repository awareness

  • added AST-based parsing using acorn and acorn-walk
  • added persistent .rag/index.json
  • added symbol search and dependency analysis
  • added function, export, function call, environment variable and route extraction
  • added richer code context and source metadata
  • added automatic index rebuilding
  • improved path-based dependency detection
  • fixed the RAG detecting references created using path.join(rootDir, ...)
  • add token budgeting and usage tracking.

• Changed how telemetry is handled

  • telemetry history is no longer included in /api/status or any other endpoints
  • CHANGED all admin endpoints so that none of them has the telemetryHistory anymore

• Added release history tracking

  • added release-history.json
  • /sz-release can now retrieve release information for different versions
  • npm run release automatically appends the current release notes

Tl;DR: RAG got a major upgrade with AST-powered repository indexing (acorn/acorn-walk), persistent indexing via .rag/index.json, symbol search, dependency analysis, function/export/call/env-var/route extraction, richer source metadata, automatic index rebuilding, 7 new RAG tools, 3 new CLI tools, SSE-powered streaming for /api/ask and telemetry, telemetry endpoints, admin server events, live AI activity tracing, token/context/tool usage visibility, AI session caching, release history tracking, telemetry separation from /api/status, admin API cleanup, and a large collection of bug fixes, repository-awareness improvements and major QOL improvements.

hopefully i will be devloging every version till i ship
