Critical fix for GCS/S3 native storage adapters crashing on metadata index keys.
Problem:
- GCS and S3 adapters crashed with "Invalid UUID format" errors
- System keys like __metadata_field_index__status are NOT UUIDs
- Adapters incorrectly tried to shard all metadata keys as UUIDs
Solution:
- Move sharding/routing logic from adapters to BaseStorage class
- Add analyzeKey() method to detect system keys vs entity UUIDs
- System keys route to _system/ directory (no sharding)
- Entity UUIDs route to sharded directories (256 shards)
- All adapters now implement 4 primitive operations:
* writeObjectToPath(path, data)
* readObjectFromPath(path)
* deleteObjectFromPath(path)
* listObjectsUnderPath(prefix)
Benefits:
- Impossible for future adapters to repeat this mistake
- Zero breaking changes, full backward compatibility
- No data migration required
- Cleaner architecture with better separation of concerns
Updated adapters: GcsStorage, S3CompatibleStorage, OPFSStorage,
FileSystemStorage, MemoryStorage
Added: docs/architecture/data-storage-architecture.md
Updated: README.md with architecture docs link
Major enhancements for type safety and developer experience:
- Add BrainyTypes static API for type management and AI-powered suggestions
- Implement strict type validation for all 31 NounType categories
- Remove dangerous generic add() method that bypassed type safety
- Add intelligent type inference with confidence scoring
- Provide helpful error messages with typo suggestions using Levenshtein distance
- Update all internal code, examples, and documentation to use typed methods
- Enhance CLI with new type management commands (types, suggest, validate)
Breaking changes:
- Remove deprecated add() method - use addNoun() with explicit type parameter
- All addNoun() calls now require explicit type as second parameter
This release significantly improves type safety across the entire system while
maintaining backward compatibility for properly typed method calls.
