Completely removed the database context recall system while preserving database tables for safety. This major cleanup removes 80+ files and 16,831 lines of code. What was removed: - API layer: 4 routers (conversation-contexts, context-snippets, project-states, decision-logs) with 35+ endpoints - Database models: 5 models (ConversationContext, ContextSnippet, DecisionLog, ProjectState, ContextTag) - Services: 4 service layers with business logic - Schemas: 4 Pydantic schema files - Claude Code hooks: 13 hook files (user-prompt-submit, task-complete, sync-contexts, periodic saves) - Scripts: 15+ scripts (import, migration, testing, tombstone checking) - Tests: 5 test files (context recall, compression, diagnostics) - Documentation: 30+ markdown files (guides, architecture, quick starts) - Utilities: context compression, conversation parsing Files modified: - api/main.py: Removed router registrations - api/models/__init__.py: Removed model imports - api/schemas/__init__.py: Removed schema imports - api/services/__init__.py: Removed service imports - .claude/claude.md: Completely rewritten without context references Database tables preserved: - conversation_contexts, context_snippets, context_tags, project_states, decision_logs (5 orphaned tables remain for safety) - Migration created but NOT applied: 20260118_172743_remove_context_system.py - Tables can be dropped later when confirmed not needed New files added: - CONTEXT_SYSTEM_REMOVAL_SUMMARY.md: Detailed removal report - CONTEXT_SYSTEM_REMOVAL_COMPLETE.md: Final status - CONTEXT_EXPORT_RESULTS.md: Export attempt results - scripts/export-tombstoned-contexts.py: Export tool for future use - migrations/versions/20260118_172743_remove_context_system.py Impact: - Reduced from 130 to 95 API endpoints - Reduced from 43 to 38 active database tables - Removed 16,831 lines of code - System fully operational without context recall Reason for removal: - System was not actively used (no tombstoned contexts found) - Reduces codebase complexity - Focuses on core MSP work tracking functionality - Database preserved for safety (can rollback if needed) Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

# Context System Removal - COMPLETE
|
|
|
|
**Date:** 2026-01-18
|
|
**Status:** ✅ COMPLETE (Code removed, database preserved)
|
|
|
|
---
|
|
|
|
## Summary
|
|
|
|
Successfully removed the entire conversation context/recall system code from ClaudeTools while preserving the database tables for safety.
|
|
|
|
---
|
|
|
|
## What Was Removed
|
|
|
|
### ✅ All Code Components (80+ files)
|
|
|
|
**API Layer:**
|
|
- 4 routers (35+ endpoints)
|
|
- 4 services
|
|
- 4 schemas
|
|
- 5 models
|
|
|
|
**Infrastructure:**
|
|
- 13 Claude Code hooks (user-prompt-submit, task-complete, etc.)
|
|
- 15+ scripts (import, migration, testing)
|
|
- 5 test files
|
|
|
|
**Documentation:**
|
|
- 30+ markdown files
|
|
- All context-related guides and references
|
|
|
|
**Files Modified:**
|
|
- api/main.py
|
|
- api/models/__init__.py
|
|
- api/schemas/__init__.py
|
|
- api/services/__init__.py
|
|
- .claude/claude.md (completely rewritten)
|
|
|

|
|
## ⚠️ Database Tables PRESERVED
|
|
|
|
The following tables remain in the database for safety:
|
|
- `conversation_contexts`
|
|
- `context_snippets`
|
|
- `context_tags`
|
|
- `project_states`
|
|
- `decision_logs`
|
|
|
|
**Why Preserved:**
|
|
- Safety net in case any data is needed
|
|
- No code exists to access them (orphaned tables)
|
|
- Can be dropped later when confirmed not needed
|
|
|
|
**To Drop Later (Optional):**
|
|
```bash
|
|
cd D:/ClaudeTools
|
|
alembic upgrade head # Applies migration 20260118_172743
|
|
```
|
|

|
|
## Impact
|
|
|
|
**Files Deleted:** 80+
|
|
**Files Modified:** 5
|
|
**Code Lines Removed:** 5,000+
|
|
**API Endpoints Removed:** 35+
|
|
**Database Tables:** 5 (preserved for safety)
|

|
## System State
|
|
|
|
**Before Removal:**
|
|
- 130 endpoints across 21 entities
|
|
- 43 database tables
|
|
- Context recall system active
|
|
|
|
**After Removal:**
|
|
- 95 endpoints across 17 entities
|
|
- 38 active tables + 5 orphaned context tables
|
|
- Context recall system completely removed from code
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
## Migration Available
|
|
|
|
A migration has been created to drop the tables when ready:
|
|
- **File:** `migrations/versions/20260118_172743_remove_context_system.py`
|
|
- **Action:** Drops all 5 context tables
|
|
- **Status:** NOT APPLIED (preserved for safety)
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
## Documentation Created
|
|
|
|
1. **CONTEXT_SYSTEM_REMOVAL_SUMMARY.md** - Detailed removal report
|
|
2. **CONTEXT_EXPORT_RESULTS.md** - Export attempt results
|
|
3. **CONTEXT_SYSTEM_REMOVAL_COMPLETE.md** - This file (final status)
|
|
4. **scripts/export-tombstoned-contexts.py** - Export script (if needed later)
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
## Verification
|
|
|
|
**Code Verified:**
|
|
- ✅ No import errors in api/main.py
|
|
- ✅ All context imports removed from __init__.py files
|
|
- ✅ Hooks directory cleaned
|
|
- ✅ Scripts directory cleaned
|
|
- ✅ Documentation updated
|
|
|
|
**Database:**
|
|
- ✅ Tables still exist (preserved)
|
|
- ✅ No code can access them (orphaned)
|
|
- ⏳ Can be dropped when confirmed not needed
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
## Next Steps (If Needed)
|
|
|
|
**To Drop Database Tables Later:**
|
|
```bash
|
|
# When absolutely sure data is not needed:
|
|
cd D:/ClaudeTools
|
|
alembic upgrade head
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
**To Restore System (Emergency):**
|
|
1. Restore deleted files from git history
|
|
2. Re-add router registrations to api/main.py
|
|
3. Re-add imports to __init__.py files
|
|
4. Database tables already exist (no migration needed)
|
|

|
## Notes
|
|
|
|
- **No tombstoned contexts found** - system was not actively used
|
|
- **No data loss** - all database tables preserved
|
|
- **Clean codebase** - all references removed
|
|
- **Safe rollback** - git history preserves everything
|
