but that function has no callers — the CLI's outputResults() uses its
own inline JSON formatting that destructured only .snippet from
extractSnippet(), discarding .line. Extract the full SnippetResult
and spread the line field into the JSON output object.
Closes#505
Adds a benchmark harness that measures search quality across backends.
Given a fixture file with queries and expected results, it runs each
query through BM25, vector, hybrid (no rerank), and full pipeline,
then reports precision@k, recall, MRR, F1, and latency.
This is primarily a regression testing tool — users create fixtures
for their own vaults to catch quality regressions after config or
index changes. Ships with an example fixture against the eval-docs
test collection to demonstrate the format.
New files:
src/bench/bench.ts — main runner
src/bench/score.ts — precision, recall, MRR, F1, path matching
src/bench/types.ts — fixture and result types
src/bench/fixtures/ — example fixture
test/bench-score.test.ts — unit tests for scoring (16 tests)

Brace expansion patterns like `{doc1,doc2}.md` or `collection/{a,b}.md`
were incorrectly parsed as comma-separated file lists instead of being
passed to the glob matcher (picomatch). This happened because the
comma-detection heuristic only checked for `*` and `?` but not `{`.
Also adds `collection/path` matching in `matchFilesByGlob` so patterns
like `my-collection/{file1,file2}.md` work — previously the glob only
matched against `qmd://collection/path` (virtual) and `path` (relative
to collection root), missing the `collection/path` form.

Add opt-in AST-aware chunk boundary detection for code files using
web-tree-sitter. When enabled with `--chunk-strategy auto`, code files
(.ts, .tsx, .js, .jsx, .py, .go, .rs) are chunked at function, class,
and import boundaries instead of arbitrary text positions. Default
behavior (`regex`) is unchanged — no surprises on upgrade.
In testing on QMD's own codebase, AST mode split 42% fewer function
bodies across chunk boundaries compared to regex-only chunking.
Usage:
qmd embed --chunk-strategy auto
qmd query "search terms" --chunk-strategy auto
What's included:
- Language detection from file extension with support for TypeScript,
JavaScript (including arrow functions and function expressions),
Python, Go, and Rust
- Per-language tree-sitter queries with scored break points aligned to
the existing markdown scale (class=100, function=90, type=80, import=60)
- AST break points merged with regex break points — highest score wins
at each position, so embedded markdown (comments, docstrings) still
benefits from regex patterns
- Refactored chunking core: chunkDocumentWithBreakPoints() extracted,
mergeBreakPoints() added, async chunkDocumentAsync() wrapper for AST
- ChunkStrategy type ("auto" | "regex") threaded through
generateEmbeddings(), hybridQuery(), structuredSearch(), CLI, and SDK
- getASTStatus() health check wired into `qmd status`
- Parse failures log a warning and fall back to regex — never crash
Hardening:
- Grammar packages are optionalDependencies with pinned versions to
prevent ABI breaks from semver drift
- web-tree-sitter is a direct dependency (pinned)
- Errors are logged (not silently swallowed) for debuggability
- Tested on both Node.js and Bun (Bun is actually faster)
Testing:
- 26 unit tests (test/ast.test.ts) — all 4 languages, error handling
- 7 integration tests (test/store.test.ts) — merge, equivalence, bypass
- Standalone test-ast-chunking.mjs with 63 synthetic tests and a
real-collection performance scanner (npx tsx test-ast-chunking.mjs ~/code)
- Validated end-to-end with qmd embed + qmd query on QMD's own codebase
- Zero markdown regressions across all test paths

Exposes the existing skipRerank option as a --no-rerank CLI flag for
qmd query. On CPU-only machines, reranking takes 120s+ for 20 chunks -
this flag lets users get RRF-fused results without the reranking penalty.

Move frontends into src/cli/ and src/mcp/ to separate them from the
core library. The MCP server is fully rewritten to import only from
the SDK (src/index.ts) — zero direct store.ts/collections.ts/llm.ts
access.
- src/qmd.ts → src/cli/qmd.ts
- src/formatter.ts → src/cli/formatter.ts
- src/mcp.ts → src/mcp/server.ts (rewritten to use QMDStore SDK)
- New src/maintenance.ts: Maintenance class for CLI housekeeping
- SDK gains: getDocumentBody(), getDefaultCollectionNames(),
extractSnippet/addLineNumbers/DEFAULT_MULTI_GET_MAX_BYTES exports,
getDefaultDbPath re-export, InternalStore type export
- package.json bin/scripts updated for new paths
- All 692 tests pass
