Jason Woltje 5d348526de feat(#71): implement graph data API
Implemented three new API endpoints for knowledge graph visualization:

1. GET /api/knowledge/graph - Full knowledge graph
   - Returns all entries and links with optional filtering
   - Supports filtering by tags, status, and node count limit
   - Includes orphan detection (entries with no links)

2. GET /api/knowledge/graph/stats - Graph statistics
   - Total entries and links counts
   - Orphan entries detection
   - Average links per entry
   - Top 10 most connected entries
   - Tag distribution across entries

3. GET /api/knowledge/graph/:slug - Entry-centered subgraph
   - Returns graph centered on specific entry
   - Supports depth parameter (1-5) for traversal distance
   - Includes all connected nodes up to specified depth

New Files:
- apps/api/src/knowledge/graph.controller.ts
- apps/api/src/knowledge/graph.controller.spec.ts

Modified Files:
- apps/api/src/knowledge/dto/graph-query.dto.ts (added GraphFilterDto)
- apps/api/src/knowledge/entities/graph.entity.ts (extended with new types)
- apps/api/src/knowledge/services/graph.service.ts (added new methods)
- apps/api/src/knowledge/services/graph.service.spec.ts (added tests)
- apps/api/src/knowledge/knowledge.module.ts (registered controller)
- apps/api/src/knowledge/dto/index.ts (exported new DTOs)
- docs/scratchpads/71-graph-data-api.md (implementation notes)

Test Coverage: 21 tests (all passing)
- 14 service tests including orphan detection, filtering, statistics
- 7 controller tests for all three endpoints

Follows TDD principles with tests written before implementation.
All code quality gates passed (lint, typecheck, tests).

Issue #67: [KNOW-015] Search UI

Objective

Build a comprehensive search interface in the Next.js web UI with search-as-you-type, filters, keyboard shortcuts, and highlighted snippets.

Approach

  1. Review existing web UI structure and components
  2. Design component architecture for search functionality
  3. Implement TDD workflow (RED-GREEN-REFACTOR):
    • Write tests for search input component
    • Implement search input with Cmd+K shortcut
    • Write tests for search results page
    • Implement search results with highlighting
    • Write tests for filter sidebar
    • Implement filter functionality
    • Add no results state
  4. Ensure all tests pass and coverage meets 85% minimum
  5. Run quality gates and code review
  6. Commit and close issue

Component Architecture

  • SearchInput - Header search component with Cmd+K shortcut
  • SearchResults - Main results page/component
  • SearchResultItem - Individual result with highlighted snippets
  • SearchFilters - Sidebar for tag and status filtering
  • NoResults - Empty state component

Progress

  • Create scratchpad
  • Review existing web UI structure
  • Write tests for SearchInput component
  • Implement SearchInput with keyboard shortcut
  • Write tests for SearchResults page
  • Implement SearchResults page
  • Write tests for SearchResultItem with highlighting
  • Implement result item with snippet highlighting
  • Write tests for SearchFilters
  • Implement filter sidebar
  • Write tests for NoResults state
  • Implement no results state
  • Add debounced search-as-you-type
  • Create search page at /knowledge/search
  • Add search button to Navigation header
  • Fix Input component to support forwardRef
  • All tests passing (100% coverage)
  • Typecheck passing
  • Lint passing
  • Commit changes (3cb6eb7)
  • Close issue #67

Summary

Successfully implemented comprehensive search UI for knowledge base with:

  • Full TDD approach (tests written first)
  • 100% code coverage on main components
  • All acceptance criteria met
  • PDA-friendly design principles followed
  • Quality gates passed (typecheck, lint, tests)

Components created:

  • SearchInput (debounced, Cmd+K shortcut)
  • SearchFilters (tags and status filtering)
  • SearchResults (main results view with highlighting)
  • Search page at /knowledge/search
  • Updated Navigation with search button

All files pass pre-commit hooks and quality checks.

Testing Strategy

  • Unit tests for all components
  • Test keyboard shortcuts (Cmd+K, Escape)
  • Test debouncing behavior
  • Test filter interactions
  • Test safe HTML rendering for highlights
  • Test no results state
  • Aim for 85%+ coverage

Notes

  • Use Shadcn/ui components (Input, Card, Badge, etc.)
  • Follow PDA-friendly language (no "URGENT", "MUST", etc.)
  • Use visual indicators: 🟢 Active, 🔵 Scheduled, ⏸️ Paused, 💤 Dormant, Not started
  • Safely render HTML snippets from API (use dangerouslySetInnerHTML with sanitization or a library)
  • Debounce search input to avoid excessive API calls
  • Cmd+K should open search modal/focus search input
  • Escape should close search modal if open
