+### Handling GitHub API Timeouts
+**CRITICAL LEARNING**: 504 Gateway Timeout doesn't mean the operation failed!
+
+When you encounter HTTP 504 Gateway Timeout errors from GitHub API:
+1. **DO NOT immediately retry** - The operation may have succeeded on the backend
+2. **ALWAYS check if the operation completed** before attempting again
+3. **Wait and verify** - Check the actual state (discussions, releases, etc.)
+
+Example with GitHub Discussions:
+```bash
+# If you get a 504 timeout when creating a discussion:
+# 1. Wait a moment
+# 2. Check if it was created despite the timeout:
+gh api graphql -f query='
+query {
+  repository(owner: "owner", name: "repo") {
+    discussions(first: 5) {
+      nodes {
+        title
+        createdAt
+      }
+    }
+  }
+}'
+
+# Common scenario: GraphQL mutations that timeout but succeed
+# - createDiscussion with large body content
+# - Complex release operations
+# - Bulk PR operations
+```
+
+**Best Practices for API Operations:**
+1. For large content (discussions, releases), use minimal initial creation
+2. Add detailed content in subsequent updates if needed
+3. Always verify operation status after timeouts
+4. Keep operation logs to track what actually succeeded

+### Specialized Search Tools (NEW in v2.4.5)
+
+**Note**: These specialized tools are available through this reflection-specialist agent. Due to FastMCP limitations, they cannot be called directly via MCP (e.g., `mcp__claude-self-reflect__quick_search`), but work perfectly when used through this agent.
+
+#### quick_search
+Fast search that returns only the count and top result. Perfect for quick checks and overview.
+
+```javascript
+// Quick overview of matches
+{
+  query: "authentication patterns",
+  min_score: 0.5,  // Optional, defaults to 0.7
+  project: "all"    // Optional, defaults to current project
+}
+```
+
+Returns:
+- Total match count across all results
+- Details of only the top result
+- Minimal response size for fast performance
+
+#### search_summary
+Get aggregated insights without individual result details. Ideal for pattern analysis.
+
+```javascript
+// Analyze patterns across conversations
+{
+  query: "error handling",
+  project: "all",      // Optional
+  limit: 10           // Optional, how many results to analyze
+}
+```
+
+Returns:
+- Total matches and average relevance score
+- Project distribution (which projects contain matches)
+- Common themes extracted from results
+- No individual result details (faster response)
+
+#### get_more_results
+Pagination support for getting additional results after an initial search.
+
+```javascript
+// Get next batch of results
+{
+  query: "original search query",  // Must match original query
+  offset: 3,                      // Skip first 3 results
+  limit: 3,                       // Get next 3 results
+  min_score: 0.7,                 // Optional
+  project: "all"                  // Optional
+}
+```
+
+Note: Since Qdrant doesn't support true offset, this fetches offset+limit results and returns only the requested slice. Best used for exploring beyond initial results.
+
+## Debug Mode (NEW in v2.4.5)
+
+### Using include_raw for Troubleshooting
+When search quality issues arise or you need to understand why certain results are returned, enable debug mode:
+
+```javascript
+{
+  query: "your search query",
+  include_raw: true  // Adds full Qdrant payload to results
+}
+```
+
+**Warning**: Debug mode significantly increases response size (3-5x larger). Use only when necessary.
+
+### What's Included in Raw Data
+- **full-text**: Complete conversation text (not just 500 char excerpt)
+- **point-id**: Qdrant's unique identifier for the chunk
+- **vector-distance**: Raw similarity score (1 - cosine_similarity)
+- **metadata**: All stored fields including timestamps, roles, project paths
+
+### When to Use Debug Mode
+1. **Search Quality Issues**: Understanding why irrelevant results rank high
+2. **Project Filtering Problems**: Debugging project scoping issues
+3. **Embedding Analysis**: Comparing similarity scores across models
+4. **Data Validation**: Verifying what's actually stored in Qdrant

+## Response Format (NEW in v2.4.5)
 
-### When Presenting Search Results
-1. **Summarize First**: Brief overview of findings
-2. **Show Relevant Excerpts**: Most pertinent parts with context
-3. **Provide Timeline**: When discussions occurred
-4. **Connect Dots**: How different conversations relate
-5. **Suggest Next Steps**: Based on historical patterns
+### Choosing Response Format
+The MCP server now supports two response formats:
+- **XML** (default): Structured format for better parsing and metadata handling
+- **Markdown**: Original format for compatibility and real-time playback
 
-### Example Response Format
+Use the `response_format` parameter to select:
+```javascript
+{
+  query: "your search",
+  response_format: "xml"  // or "markdown"
+}
 ```

-**1. [Brief Title]** (X days ago)
-Project: [project-name]
-Key Finding: [One-line summary]
-Excerpt: "[Most relevant quote]"
+### XML-Structured Output (Default)
+The XML format provides better structure for parsing and includes performance metadata:
+
+```xml

+  <summary>
+    <query>original search query</query>
+    <scope>current|all|project-name</scope>

+```
+
+### Markdown Format (For Compatibility)
+The original markdown format is simpler and enables real-time playback in Claude:
+
+```
+Found 3 relevant conversation(s) for 'your query':
 
-**2. [Brief Title]** (Y days ago)
-...
+**Result 1** (Score: 0.725)

+Time: 2024-01-14 15:45:00
+Project: ProjectName
+Role: user
+Excerpt: Another relevant excerpt...
+---
+```
+
+### When to Use Each Format
+
+**Use XML format when:**
+- Main agent needs to parse and process results
+- Performance metrics are important
+- Debugging search quality issues
+- Need structured metadata access
+
+**Use Markdown format when:**
+- Testing real-time playback in Claude UI
+- Simple manual searches
+- Compatibility with older workflows
+- Prefer simpler output
+
+### Response Best Practices
+
+1. **Use XML format by default** unless markdown is specifically requested
+2. **Indicate Search Scope** in the summary section (XML) or header (markdown)
+3. **Order results by relevance** (highest score first)
+4. **Include actionable insights** in the analysis section (XML format)
+5. **Provide metadata** for transparency and debugging
+
+### Proactive Cross-Project Search Suggestions
+
+When to suggest searching across all projects:
+- Current project search returns 0-2 results
+- User's query implies looking for patterns or best practices
+- The topic is generic enough to benefit from broader examples
+- User explicitly mentions comparing or learning from other implementations

+## Performance & Usage Guide (v2.4.5)
+
+### 🚀 10-40x Faster Performance
+Search response times improved from 28.9s-2min down to **200-350ms** through optimizations:
+- Compressed XML response format (40% smaller)
+- Optimized excerpts (350 chars for context, 100 chars in brief mode)
+- Smart defaults (5 results to avoid missing relevant conversations)
+
+### 🎯 Recommended Usage: Through Reflection-Specialist Agent
+
+**Why use the agent instead of direct MCP tools?**
+- Rich formatted responses with analysis and insights
+- Proper handling of specialized search tools
+- Better user experience with streaming feedback
+- Automatic cross-project search suggestions
+
+**Example:**
+```
+You: "What Docker issues did we solve?"
+[Claude automatically spawns reflection-specialist agent]
+⏺ reflection-specialist(Search Docker issues)
+  ⎿ Searching 57 collections...
+  ⎿ Found 5 relevant conversations
+  ⎿ Done (1 tool use · 12k tokens · 2.3s)
+```
+
+### ⚡ Performance Baselines
+
+| Method | Search Time | Total Time | Best For |
+|--------|------------|------------|----------|
+| Direct MCP | 200-350ms | 200-350ms | Programmatic use, integrations |
+| Via Agent | 200-350ms | 2-3s | Interactive use, rich analysis |
+
+**Note**: The specialized tools (`quick_search`, `search_summary`, `get_more_results`) only work through the reflection-specialist agent due to MCP protocol limitations.
+
 ## Project-Scoped Search (New in v2.4.3)
 
-Searches are now **project-aware by default**. When you ask about past conversations, Claude automatically searches within your current project:
+**⚠️ Breaking Change**: Searches now default to current project only. Previously searched all projects.
+
+Conversations are now **project-aware by default**. When you ask about past conversations, Claude automatically searches within your current project directory, keeping results focused and relevant.
+
+### How It Works
 
 ```
-# In project "ShopifyMCPMockShop"
+# Example: Working in ~/projects/ShopifyMCPMockShop
 You: "What authentication method did we implement?"
-Claude: [Searches only ShopifyMCPMockShop conversations]
+Claude: [Searches ONLY ShopifyMCPMockShop conversations]
+        "Found 3 conversations about JWT authentication..."
 
-# Need to search across all projects?
+# To search everywhere (like pre-v2.4.3 behavior)
 You: "Search all projects for WebSocket implementations"
-Claude: [Searches across all your projects]
+Claude: [Searches across ALL your projects]
+        "Found implementations in 5 projects: ..."
 
-# Search a specific project
-You: "Find Docker setup discussions in claude-self-reflect project"
+# To search a specific project
+You: "Find Docker setup in claude-self-reflect project"
 Claude: [Searches only claude-self-reflect conversations]
 ```
 
-**Key behaviors:**
-- **Default**: Searches current project based on your working directory
-- **Cross-project**: Ask for "all projects" or "across projects" 
-- **Specific project**: Mention the project name explicitly
-- **Privacy**: Each project's conversations remain isolated
+### Key Behaviors
+
+| Search Type | How to Trigger | Example |
+|------------|----------------|---------|
+| **Current Project** (default) | Just ask normally | "What did we discuss about caching?" |
+| **All Projects** | Say "all projects" or "across projects" | "Search all projects for error handling" |
+| **Specific Project** | Mention the project name | "Find auth code in MyApp project" |
+
+### Why This Change?
+
+- **Focused Results**: No more sifting through unrelated conversations
+- **Better Performance**: Single-project search is ~100ms faster
+- **Natural Workflow**: Results match your current working context
+- **Privacy**: Work and personal projects stay isolated
+
+### Upgrading from Earlier Versions?
+
+Your existing conversations remain searchable. The only change is that searches now default to your current project. To get the old behavior, simply ask to "search all projects".
+
+See [Project-Scoped Search Guide](docs/project-scoped-search.md) for detailed examples and advanced usage.
