## Description of changes Validate effective persisted HNSW settings before appending local logs. This prevents repeated failing writes from growing the queue while retaining existing records for recovery after configuration repair. Cover legacy invalid settings and verify the log remains empty. ## Test plan CI ## Migration plan N/A ## Observability plan N/A ## Documentation Changes N/A Co-authored-by: AI

API
The core API is only 4 functions (run our 💡 Google Colab):
import chromadb
# setup Chroma in-memory, for easy prototyping. Can add persistence easily!
client = chromadb.Client()
# Create collection. get_collection, get_or_create_collection, delete_collection also available!
collection = client.create_collection("all-my-documents")
# Add docs to the collection. Can also update and delete. Row-based API coming soon!
collection.add(
documents=["This is document1", "This is document2"], # we handle tokenization, embedding, and indexing automatically. You can skip that and add your own embeddings as well
metadatas=[{"source": "notion"}, {"source": "google-docs"}], # filter on these!
ids=["doc1", "doc2"], # unique for each doc
)
# Query/search 2 most similar results. You can also .get by id
results = collection.query(
query_texts=["This is a query document"],
n_results=2,
# where={"metadata_field": "is_equal_to_this"}, # optional filter
# where_document={"$contains":"search_string"} # optional filter
)
