🚨 CRITICAL HOTFIX: Import Error Fix

This is a critical hotfix release addressing a bug introduced in v8.61.0 that broke 5 MCP tools.

What Was Fixed

Problem: Phase 3 refactoring in v8.61.0 moved handler files to server/handlers/ directory but didn't update relative import paths, causing import resolution errors.

Error Message:

ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'mcp_memory_service.server.services'

Root Cause: The relative import ..services (2 dots) resolved to mcp_memory_service/server/services/ instead of the correct mcp_memory_service/services/ after the handlers were moved.

Solution: Changed relative imports from ..services to ...services (3 dots) in server/handlers/memory.py at 5 locations.

Affected MCP Tools (All Fixed)

All 5 tools that were broken in v8.61.0 are now working correctly:

  1. update_memory_metadata - Update memory metadata without recreating entries
  2. search_by_tag - Search memories by tags
  3. delete_by_tag - Delete memories with specific tags
  4. delete_by_tags - Delete memories containing ANY of specified tags
  5. delete_by_all_tags - Delete memories containing ALL specified tags

Technical Details

Files Changed:

  • src/mcp_memory_service/server/handlers/memory.py (5 import statements updated)

Import Change:

# Before (broken in v8.61.0)
from ..services import storage_service

# After (fixed in v8.61.1)
from ...services import storage_service

Validation

  • ✅ Manual testing confirmed all 5 tools now work correctly
  • ✅ All import paths resolve to correct locations
  • ✅ No regression in other functionality
