# Changelog

All notable changes to this project will be documented in this file.

## [1.3.9] - 2026-01-31

### Fixed

- **Document Visibility (Critical):** `create_document` now creates initial revision
  - Was: Documents created via MCP didn't appear in Outline interface
  - Cause: Outline requires entry in `revisions` table to display documents
  - Now: Uses transaction to insert into both `documents` and `revisions` tables
  - Documents created via MCP now visible immediately in Outline

## [1.3.8] - 2026-01-31

### Fixed

- **Collection Sort Field:** `create_collection` now sets default `sort` value
  - Was: `sort` column left NULL, causing frontend error "Cannot read properties of null (reading 'field')"
  - Now: Sets `{"field": "index", "direction": "asc"}` as default
  - Outline frontend requires this field to render collections

## [1.3.7] - 2026-01-31

### Fixed

- **Tool Name Length:** Shortened `outline_bulk_remove_users_from_collection` to `outline_bulk_remove_collection_users`
  - MCP tool names with prefix `mcp__outline-postgresql__` were exceeding 64 character limit
  - Claude API returns error 400 for tool names > 64 chars

## [1.3.6] - 2026-01-31

## [1.3.0] - 2026-01-31

### Added

- **Multi-Transport Support:** Added HTTP transport alongside existing stdio

  - `src/server/`: New module with shared server logic
    - `create-server.ts`: Factory function for MCP server instances
    - `register-handlers.ts`: Shared handler registration
  - Endpoints: `/mcp` (MCP protocol), `/health` (status), `/stats` (tool counts)
  - Supports both stateful (session-based) and stateless modes

- **New npm Scripts:**
  - `start:http`: Run HTTP server (`node dist/index-http.js`)
  - `dev:http`: Development mode for HTTP server

### Changed

- **Refactored `src/index.ts`:** Now uses shared server module for cleaner code
- **Server Version:** Updated to 1.3.0 across all transports

### Technical

- Uses `StreamableHTTPServerTransport` from MCP SDK (recommended over deprecated SSEServerTransport)
- HTTP server listens on `127.0.0.1:3200` by default (configurable via `MCP_HTTP_PORT` and `MCP_HTTP_HOST`)
- CORS enabled for local development
- Graceful shutdown on SIGINT/SIGTERM

## [1.2.5] - 2026-01-31

### Fixed

- **Connection Leak (PgClient):** Fixed connection leak in `testConnection()` method
  - `pg-client.ts`: Client is now always released using `finally` block
  - Previously, if `SELECT 1` query failed after connection was acquired, the connection was never released
  - Prevents connection pool exhaustion during repeated connection test failures

## [1.2.4] - 2026-01-31

### Security

- **SQL Injection Prevention (Pagination):** Fixed critical SQL injection vulnerability in cursor pagination
  - `pagination.ts`: Added `validateFieldName()` function to sanitize field names
  - Field names (`cursorField`, `secondaryField`) are now validated against alphanumeric + underscore + dot pattern
  - Rejects dangerous SQL keywords (SELECT, INSERT, UPDATE, DELETE, DROP, UNION, etc.)
  - Prevents injection via cursor field names in ORDER BY clauses

- **Cryptographic Random (Transaction Retry):** Replaced `Math.random()` with `crypto.randomBytes()` for jitter calculation
  - `transaction.ts`: Retry jitter now uses cryptographically secure random generation
  - Maintains consistency with project security standards

### Fixed

- **Data Integrity (Comments):** Fixed critical atomicity bug in comment deletion
  - `comments.ts`: DELETE operations now wrapped in transaction
  - Prevents orphaned replies if parent comment deletion fails
  - Uses `withTransactionNoRetry()` to ensure all-or-nothing deletion

- **Error Handling (PgClient):** Added try-catch to ROLLBACK operation
  - `pg-client.ts`: ROLLBACK failures now logged instead of crashing
  - Prevents unhandled errors during transaction rollback
  - Original error is still thrown after logging rollback failure

- **Memory Leak (Pool Monitoring):** Added `.unref()` to `setInterval` in `PoolMonitor`
  - `monitoring.ts`: Pool monitoring interval now allows process to exit gracefully
  - Prevents memory leak and hanging processes on shutdown

- **Version Mismatch:** Updated hardcoded server version to match package.json
  - `index.ts`: Server version now correctly reports '1.2.4'
  - Ensures consistency across all version references

## [1.2.3] - 2026-01-31

### Security

- **Cryptographic Random Generation:** Replaced `Math.random()` with `crypto.randomBytes()` for secure secret generation
  - `oauth.ts`: OAuth client secrets now use cryptographically secure random generation
  - `api-keys.ts`: API keys now use cryptographically secure random generation
  - API keys now store only the hash, not the plain text secret (prevents database breach exposure)

- **URL Validation:** Added `isValidHttpUrl()` to reject dangerous URL protocols
  - `emojis.ts`: Emoji URLs must be HTTP(S) - prevents javascript:, data:, file: protocols
  - `webhooks.ts`: Webhook URLs must be HTTP(S) - both create and update operations
  - `users.ts`: Avatar URLs must be HTTP(S) or null

- **Integer Validation:** Added validation for numeric IDs from external systems

  - Prevents injection via numeric parameters

- **Memory Leak Fix:** Fixed `setInterval` memory leak in rate limiting
  - Rate limit cleanup interval now properly managed with start/stop functions
  - Uses `unref()` to allow process to exit cleanly
  - Added graceful shutdown handler to clean up intervals

### Fixed

- **parseInt Radix:** Added explicit radix (10) to all `parseInt()` calls across 5 files
  - `collections.ts`, `groups.ts`, `revisions.ts`, `users.ts`, `security.ts`

- **Savepoint SQL Injection:** Added `sanitizeSavepointName()` to prevent SQL injection in savepoints
  - Validates savepoint names against PostgreSQL identifier rules

- **Share URL Generation:** Replaced `Math.random()` with `crypto.randomBytes()` for share URL IDs
  - Also replaced deprecated `.substr()` with modern approach

## [1.2.2] - 2026-01-31
