fix: correctness bugs (Svelte off-by-one, watcher dropped changes, traversal defaults, context clamping)

[andreinknv]

Summary

Four user-visible correctness bugs caught by an independent codebase audit. Each fix has a regression test that fails before the change and passes after.

1. Svelte symbols were reported on the wrong line — every time

src/extraction/svelte-extractor.ts:144

The <script> block regex captures content starting with the newline that follows >. The inner extractor sees that newline as line 1 of its (1-indexed) input and the first real code on line 2. The old code did contentStartLine = scriptTagLine + openingTagLines + 1 and added that to the inner extractor's already-1-indexed line numbers — shifting every Svelte symbol's startLine / endLine off by 1. Dropping the +1 produces correct positions. Five new tests cover single-line, multi-line opening tag, template-offset, single-line no-newline, and dual module/instance script blocks.

2. Watcher silently dropped pending changes on sync failure

src/sync/watcher.ts:177

this.hasChanges = false;     // cleared BEFORE the attempt
this.syncing = true;
try {
  await this.syncFn();
} catch (err) {
  this.onSyncError?.(error); // no retry — batch is lost
}

If the sync threw (DB locked, transient FS error) the pending batch was forgotten until a new file event arrived. Now hasChanges = true is re-set in the catch path so a transient failure schedules a retry on its own. Regression test mocks a fail-then-succeed syncFn and asserts the second call happens automatically without a new file event.

3. Graph traversal default maxDepth was Infinity

src/graph/traversal.ts:14, src/types.ts:301

limit: 1000 capped returned nodes, but during traversal the visited set and BFS/DFS frontier can grow far beyond limit on highly connected graphs before the cap kicks in. Default is now 10. The TraversalOptions.maxDepth JSDoc documents that callers who really need exhaustive traversal can still pass Infinity explicitly. This is a public-API behavior change — existing tests pass with the new default.

Also caps findPath's BFS queue at FIND_PATH_MAX_QUEUE = 100_000 entries (each holds a cloned path array, so on dense graphs the queue could otherwise consume gigabytes before either finding a path or exhausting the search). Cap is checked at the top of the BFS loop so it's a hard ceiling, not a near-miss.

4. findRelevantContext did not bound caller-supplied limits

src/context/index.ts:284

searchLimit is multiplied by 5 inside findNodesByExactName and feeds several other unbounded operations; a caller passing searchLimit: 1_000_000 would pull millions of rows. Now clamped:

• searchLimit ∈ [1, 100]
• maxNodes ∈ [1, 1000]
• traversalDepth ∈ [0, 10]

Regression test asserts a 1e9 input is bounded.

Test plan

• npm test (serialized): 387/387 pass (was 380, added 7)
• npx tsc --noEmit clean
• Independent reviewer pass before pushing — picked up missing dual-script and single-line test cases (now added) and tightened the findPath queue cap to be a hard ceiling
