Migration and history (archive)

Migration and history (archive)

The codebase is TypeScript with shared types in @agent-detective/types. This page lists breaking or notable changes; for day-to-day setup use development.md and configuration.md. For how to follow releases and upgrade deploys, see upgrading.md.

Config: repoContext location

gitLogMaxCommits and related local-repos options live under plugins[] → @agent-detective/local-repos-plugin → options, not as a root repoContext key in config/default.json.

Removed: file search in repo context

searchPatterns, searchFiles, and related APIs were removed. BuildRepoContextOptions extends git tuning (maxCommits, timeouts, diffFromRef, logger) — not arbitrary file search. Agents are expected to search the tree themselves.

Imports

Use @agent-detective/types (and workspace packages) — not deep imports into src/core/ from plugins.

Build commands (correct)

pnpm install
pnpm run build          # all workspace packages (Turbo)
pnpm run build:app      # bundle root app → dist/

There is no build:plugin script; build individual packages with pnpm --filter <name> build if needed.
