• Used SQLAlchemy direct table creation (bypassed Alembic issues)
• Verified all foreign key constraints

✅ Phase 3: API Deployment

• Deployed complete API codebase to /opt/claudetools
• Created Python virtual environment with all dependencies
• Configured environment variables (.env file)
• Created systemd service: claudetools-api.service
• Configured to auto-start on boot

✅ Phase 4: Network Configuration

• Verified remote access from Windows

✅ Phase 5: Client Configuration

• Updated .claude/context-recall-config.env to point to central API

New Machine Setup

The setup process for new machines is now dramatically simplified:

Old Process (Local API):

1. Install Python 3.x
2. Create virtual environment
3. Install 20+ dependencies
4. Configure database connection
5. Start API manually or setup auto-start
6. Configure hooks
7. Troubleshoot API startup issues
8. Time: 10-15 minutes per machine

New Process (Central API):

1. Clone git repo
2. Run bash scripts/setup-new-machine.sh
3. Done!
4. Time: 30 seconds per machine

Example:

git clone https://git.azcomputerguru.com/mike/ClaudeTools.git
cd ClaudeTools
bash scripts/setup-new-machine.sh
# Enter credentials when prompted
# Context recall is now active!

1. Update config on each machine:

   # Edit .claude/context-recall-config.env
   CLAUDE_API_URL=http://172.16.3.20:8000
   

2. Start local API:

   cd D:\ClaudeTools
   api\venv\Scripts\activate
   python -m api.main
