Recent Engineering Improvements

🔒 Security Fixes

Sensitive Data Exposure in Error Logs - Fixed a vulnerability where URLs containing API keys/tokens in query parameters were exposed in error messages. Added sanitizeUrl utility to remove query strings and fragments from URLs in all error classes.

🧹 Code Health & Maintenance

Removed Test-Only Methods from Production Code - Cleaned up JulesMCPServer class by removing test helper methods (handleSessionState, handleGetBashOutputs, etc.) that were polluting production code, improving maintainability.

Performance Optimization

Async Configuration I/O - Replaced synchronous fs methods with asynchronous fs.promises operations for configuration loading/saving, preventing event loop blocking and improving overall system responsiveness.

Testing Improvements

Schema Introspection Unit Tests - Added comprehensive tests for JQL schema definition and documentation generation logic, covering schema retrieval, TypeScript interface generation, and Markdown documentation integrity.


Key Themes: Security hardening, codebase cleanup, performance optimization, and test coverage expansion. All changes maintain backward compatibility while improving reliability and maintainability.

Removed several public methods from JulesMCPServer that were explicitly
marked "for testing". These methods were thin wrappers around tool handlers.
Refactored lightweight-responses spec test to call the tool handler directly.

Methods removed:
- handleSessionState
- handleGetBashOutputs
- handleSelect
- handleReviewChanges
- handleShowDiff
- _listTools

This commit introduces a `sanitizeUrl` utility to strip query parameters
and fragments from URLs before they are included in error messages or
stored in error objects. This prevents accidental exposure of sensitive
information such as API keys or tokens in logs.

Files modified:
- packages/core/src/utils.ts: added sanitizeUrl utility
- packages/core/src/errors.ts: updated error classes to use sanitizeUrl
- packages/core/src/api.ts: updated ApiClient to use sanitizeUrl in custom error messages
- packages/core/tests/security_url.test.ts: added tests for URL sanitization in errors
- Added unit tests for `getSchema`, `getAllSchemas`, `generateTypeDefinition`, and `generateMarkdownDocs` in `packages/core/src/query/schema.ts`.
- Implemented schema integrity checks for `SESSION_SCHEMA`, `ACTIVITY_SCHEMA`, `FILTER_OP_SCHEMA`, and `PROJECTION_SCHEMA`.
- Verified test coverage and confirmed tests catch regressions by temporarily modifying the code.
Refactor `loadConfig`, `saveConfig`, and `resolveApiKey` to be asynchronous, using `fs.promises` instead of synchronous `fs` methods. This prevents blocking the Node.js event loop during I/O operations, which is a performance anti-pattern.

All call sites and tests have been updated to support the new asynchronous API.
