Establish comprehensive quality infrastructure for a project that previously
had zero tests, enabling confident refactoring and community contributions
with automated guardrails. Port upstream enhancements for font normalization,
image element support, and arrow binding preservation.
🏗️ Testing infrastructure:
- Unit tests for SQLite persistence layer and element validation helpers
- Integration tests for REST API, WebSocket broadcast, and arrow binding
- E2E tests with Playwright for canvas rendering and real-time sync
- Vitest + Playwright configuration with proper isolation
👷 CI/CD pipeline:
- Auto-versioning from conventional commits on push to main
- Auto-publish to NPM and Docker Hub on GitHub release
- Matrix testing across Node 18/20/22 with pinned dependencies
- Docker health check with diagnostic logging on failure
- Preserve rollup status checks for branch protection gates
📦 Developer experience:
- Interactive setup wizard for first-time configuration
- Canvas clear confirmation and scene description tools
- Frontend helpers extracted for testability
🔧 Upstream feature ports:
- Font family normalization (string names to numeric IDs)
- Image element support with file management API
- Arrow binding preservation through server round-trips
- Vite config fix for font subsetting worker chunk names
- Idempotent database initialization for standalone Docker mode
🐛 Docker fixes:
- Set EXCALIDRAW_DB_PATH in both Dockerfiles to writable /app/data/
- Make initDb() idempotent and closeDb() reset-safe for test isolation
🎯 Provides the safety net needed for rapid iteration — every PR is
validated across 120 test cases before merge, and releases are fully
automated from commit to published package.

* 🔧 chore: reset version to 1.0.0 for independent NPM package
This is a new scoped package (@sanjibdevnath/mcp-excalidraw-local),
so versioning starts fresh at 1.0.0 rather than continuing upstream's
numbering.

Replace in-memory storage with SQLite (WAL mode), add workspace-based
multi-tenancy with auto-detection via server.listRoots(), and embed the
canvas server into the MCP process for single-process operation.
🔧 Core enhancements:
- SQLite persistence with versioning, element history, and search
- Multi-tenancy: isolated canvases per workspace (SHA-256 tenant IDs)
- Embedded canvas lifecycle (single node process starts MCP + canvas)
- Auto-sync with 3s debounce and manual override toggle
- Configurable canvas port via CANVAS_PORT env var
- 6 new MCP tools (search, history, tenants, projects)
- Workspace switcher UI with dropdown search
- Sync normalization to prevent bound-text breakage on reload
🐳 Docker & CI improvements:
- BuildKit cache mounts for faster npm installs across builds
- Skip native compilation in frontend-builder stage (--ignore-scripts)
- Build only linux/amd64 on PRs, multi-arch on push to main
- Docker Hub registry with proper build tools for better-sqlite3
- CI and Docker status check gates (github/ci-status-check, github/docker-build-check)
📦 Package & publishing:
- Renamed to @sanjibdevnath/mcp-excalidraw-local (v3.0.0)
- Updated npm-publish workflow for scoped package
- Updated bin entry, keywords, and files list
📝 Documentation:
- README with UI screenshots, architecture diagram, and full feature docs
- Updated agent skill with 32-tool cheatsheet and workflow playbooks
- Fork attribution and upstream comparison table
