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
