v2026.05.5-beta.0

Fixed

• CLI Bootstrap Resilience: Re-engineered the CLI entrypoint (bin/synapse.js) to be completely dependency-free for core commands. synapse --version and synapse help now work even if node_modules is missing or corrupted.
• Robust Auto-Relaunch: Improved the tsx relauncher to handle missing loader dependencies gracefully, providing actionable instructions instead of internal module resolution crashes.

Added

• Incremental Delta-Indexing (S02): Implemented surgical index updates for only changed/deleted files, significantly reducing re-indexing overhead in large workspaces.
• Multi-Root Discovery (S03): Implemented recursive project detection in monorepo structures (depth limit: 3).
• Graceful Lite Mode: Heavyweight native dependencies (@huggingface/transformers, sqlite-vec) are now optional. The system automatically detects missing backends and degrades to "Lite Mode" (Lexical search + KG) instead of failing to install or start in restricted environments.
• Automatic Knowledge Graph Extraction: Introduced a background on-device extraction pipeline that automatically populates the Knowledge Graph from memory entries using local transformer models.
• System Introspection: Added the synapse status command for detailed database and server health snapshots.
• Performance Benchmarks: Implemented synapse bench and published a quantitative BENCHMARKS.md demonstrating sub-100ms P95 latencies for local operations.
