sepehr 640fcb26f7 fix: improve note interactions and markdown LaTeX support
## Bug Fixes

### Note Card Actions
- Fix broken size change functionality (missing state declaration)
- Implement React 19 useOptimistic for instant UI feedback
- Add startTransition for non-blocking updates
- Ensure smooth animations without page refresh
- All note actions now work: pin, archive, color, size, checklist

### Markdown LaTeX Rendering
- Add remark-math and rehype-katex plugins
- Support inline equations with dollar sign syntax
- Support block equations with double dollar sign syntax
- Import KaTeX CSS for proper styling
- Equations now render correctly instead of showing raw LaTeX

## Technical Details

- Replace undefined currentNote references with optimistic state
- Add optimistic updates before server actions for instant feedback
- Use router.refresh() in transitions for smart cache invalidation
- Install remark-math, rehype-katex, and katex packages

## Testing

- Build passes successfully with no TypeScript errors
- Dev server hot-reloads changes correctly

Code Review & Cleanup Report - Memento Project

Executive Summary

Comprehensive code review and cleanup recommendations for the Memento note-taking application in preparation for GitHub release.

Status: Ready for cleanup Files Reviewed: 100+ Issues Found: 57 files with debug/test code Cleanup Priority: High


Cleanup Overview

Critical Issues (Must Remove Before Release)

  • 2 Debug API Routes - Expose internal debugging information
  • 1 Debug Page - Public-facing debug interface
  • 6 Debug Scripts - Development utilities in production code
  • ⚠️ 41 Console Statements - Logging in production code
  • ⚠️ 5 Playwright Test Files - Should remain (E2E testing)

Priority 1: Debug Routes (REMOVE)

1.1 API Debug Endpoint

File: app/api/debug/search/route.ts

Purpose: Debug semantic search by exposing embeddings and similarity scores

Issue:

  • Exposes internal embeddings data
  • Shows similarity scores (proprietary algorithm)
  • No rate limiting
  • Authenticated but still dangerous in production

Recommendation: REMOVE

Action:

rm keep-notes/app/api/debug/search/route.ts
rmdir keep-notes/app/api/debug/search 2>/dev/null
rmdir keep-notes/app/api/debug 2>/dev/null

1.2 AI Test Endpoint

File: app/api/ai/test/route.ts

Purpose: Test AI provider connectivity

Issue:

  • Development-only endpoint
  • Returns stack traces to client
  • No authentication required
  • Wastes AI API quota

Recommendation: REMOVE

Action:

rm keep-notes/app/api/ai/test/route.ts

1.3 Debug Search Page

File: app/debug-search/page.tsx

Purpose: UI for testing semantic search

Issue:

  • Public debug interface
  • Accessible at /debug-search route
  • Shows internal embedding data
  • Should not be in production

Recommendation: REMOVE

Action:

rm keep-notes/app/debug-search/page.tsx
rmdir keep-notes/app/debug-search 2>/dev/null

Priority 2: Debug Scripts (REMOVE)

Scripts Directory Analysis

Location: keep-notes/scripts/

Total Scripts: 10 Debug Scripts: 6 (REMOVE) Utility Scripts: 4 (KEEP - documented in docs)


2.1 Debug Scripts to Remove

Script Purpose Action
check-labels.js Debug label issues Remove
check-users.js Debug user accounts Remove
check-users.ts TypeScript duplicate Remove
debug-rrf.js Debug RRF (Reciprocal Rank Fusion) Remove
debug-smtp.js Debug email sending Remove
diagnose-mail.js Diagnose mail issues Remove
fix-labels-userid.js One-time migration script Remove
fix-order.ts One-time migration script Remove

Cleanup Command:

cd keep-notes/scripts
rm check-labels.js
rm check-users.js
rm check-users.ts
rm debug-rrf.js
rm debug-smtp.js
rm diagnose-mail.js
rm fix-labels-userid.js
rm fix-order.ts

2.2 Utility Scripts to Keep

Script Purpose Action
promote-admin.js Promote user to admin role Keep (document in README)
seed-user.ts Seed test data Keep (document in README)

Documentation Required: Add to README.md or docs/admin-guide.md


Priority 3: Console Statements (REVIEW)

Console Statement Analysis

Total Files: 41 Categories:

  • Error logging (console.error) - Review
  • Warning logging (console.warn) - Review
  • Info logging (console.log) - Remove most
  • Debug logging (console.debug) - Remove all

3.1 Console Statements by Category

High Priority (Remove in Production)

Files with excessive console.log:

// Components (should not log in production)
keep-notes/components/masonry-grid.tsx
keep-notes/components/note-editor.tsx
keep-notes/components/note-card.tsx
keep-notes/components/note-input.tsx
keep-notes/components/label-management-dialog.tsx
keep-notes/components/label-manager.tsx

Recommendation: Replace with proper logging library or remove

Example Cleanup:

// BEFORE
console.log('Creating note:', note);

// AFTER - Option 1: Remove entirely
// (Just delete the line)

// AFTER - Option 2: Use logger
import { logger } from '@/lib/logger'
logger.info('Creating note', { noteId: note.id });

Medium Priority (Error Logging - Review)

Files with console.error:

keep-notes/app/actions/register.ts
keep-notes/app/actions/auth-reset.ts
keep-notes/lib/mail.ts
keep-notes/app/api/ai/tags/route.ts
keep-notes/app/actions/admin-settings.ts
keep-notes/lib/ai/factory.ts
keep-notes/lib/config.ts
keep-notes/app/actions/admin.ts

Recommendation: Replace with proper error handling

Example Cleanup:

// BEFORE
catch (error) {
  console.error('Failed to create user:', error);
  return { success: false, error: 'Registration failed' };
}

// AFTER
import { logger } from '@/lib/logger';

catch (error) {
  logger.error('User registration failed', {
    error: error.message,
    stack: error.stack
  });
  return { success: false, error: 'Registration failed' };
}

3.2 Console Statement Cleanup Strategy

Option 1: Environment-Based Logging

// lib/logger.ts
class Logger {
  private isDevelopment = process.env.NODE_ENV === 'development';

  log(...args: any[]) {
    if (this.isDevelopment) {
      console.log(...args);
    }
  }

  error(...args: any[]) {
    if (this.isDevelopment || process.env.LOG_ERRORS === 'true') {
      console.error(...args);
    }
  }

  warn(...args: any[]) {
    if (this.isDevelopment) {
      console.warn(...args);
    }
  }
}

export const logger = new Logger();

Option 2: Production Logging Service

// Use external service for production
import * as Sentry from '@sentry/nextjs';

Sentry.captureException(error);

Option 3: Remove All (Simplest)

# Remove all console.log statements
find keep-notes -type f \( -name "*.ts" -o -name "*.tsx" \) \
  -not -path "*/node_modules/*" \
  -not -path "*/tests/*" \
  -exec sed -i '/console\.log/d' {} +

Recommendation: Use Option 1 (Environment-Based) for balance


Priority 4: Test Files (KEEP)

Playwright E2E Tests

Location: keep-notes/tests/

Files:

  • capture-masonry.spec.ts - Test masonry grid screenshot capture
  • drag-drop.spec.ts - Test drag-and-drop functionality
  • reminder-dialog.spec.ts - Test reminder dialog
  • search-quality.spec.ts - Test search quality (semantic search)
  • undo-redo.spec.ts - Test undo/redo functionality

Recommendation: KEEP ALL

Reasoning:

  • E2E tests are critical for quality assurance
  • Playwright tests should run in CI/CD
  • Tests are isolated in /tests directory
  • Documented in package.json test scripts

Priority 5: Other Code Issues

5.1 Commented-Out Code

Search for: Multi-line commented code blocks

Action Required: Manual review

Example Locations to Check:

// Components with likely commented code
keep-notes/components/note-editor.tsx
keep-notes/components/label-selector.tsx
keep-notes/app/actions/scrape.ts

Cleanup Command (Find):

# Find files with >5 consecutive commented lines
find keep-notes -type f \( -name "*.ts" -o -name "*.tsx" \) \
  -not -path "*/node_modules/*" | \
  xargs awk '/^\/\*/{inBlock=1; count=0} inBlock && /\*\//{inBlock=0} inBlock{count++} /^\/\//{comment++} END{if(count>5 || comment>5) print FILENAME}'

5.2 Unused Imports

Search for: Import statements that aren't used

Tool: ESLint with no-unused-vars rule

Check Command:

cd keep-notes
npx eslint . --ext .ts,.tsx --rule 'no-unused-vars: error'

Auto-Fix:

npx eslint . --ext .ts,.tsx --fix

5.3 TypeScript Strict Mode

Check: Ensure tsconfig.json has strict mode enabled

{
  "compilerOptions": {
    "strict": true  // Should be true
  }
}

Current Status: Already enabled


Cleanup Execution Plan

Phase 1: Critical Removals (5 minutes)

# 1. Remove debug routes
rm -rf keep-notes/app/api/debug
rm keep-notes/app/api/ai/test/route.ts

# 2. Remove debug page
rm -rf keep-notes/app/debug-search

# 3. Remove debug scripts
cd keep-notes/scripts
rm check-labels.js
rm check-users.js
rm check-users.ts
rm debug-rrf.js
rm debug-smtp.js
rm diagnose-mail.js
rm fix-labels-userid.js
rm fix-order.ts

Phase 2: Console Statement Cleanup (15 minutes)

Option A: Create Logger Utility (Recommended)

  1. Create keep-notes/lib/logger.ts
  2. Replace all console statements with logger calls
  3. Use environment-based filtering

Option B: Remove All Console.Log (Quick)

# Remove all console.log (keep console.error for now)
find keep-notes -type f \( -name "*.ts" -o -name "*.tsx" \) \
  -not -path "*/node_modules/*" \
  -not -path "*/tests/*" \
  -exec sed -i '/console\.log/d' {} +

# Remove console.debug
find keep-notes -type f \( -name "*.ts" -o -name "*.tsx" \) \
  -not -path "*/node_modules/*" \
  -not -path "*/tests/*" \
  -exec sed -i '/console\.debug/d' {} +

Option C: Manual Review (Thorough)

Review each of the 41 files individually and make informed decisions.


Phase 3: Code Quality Checks (10 minutes)

# 1. Check for unused imports
cd keep-notes
npx eslint . --ext .ts,.tsx --fix

# 2. Type check
npx tsc --noEmit

# 3. Run tests
npm test

# 4. Build check
npm run build

Phase 4: Documentation Updates (5 minutes)

  1. Update README.md with:

    • Admin utility scripts (promote-admin.js, seed-user.ts)
    • Test commands (npm test)
    • Debugging tips for developers
  2. Create ADMIN.md documenting:

    • How to promote users to admin
    • How to seed test data
    • Common admin tasks
