- HNSW feature availability check
- Corrected similarity scoring
- Metadata round-trip support
New Features
- RuvectorWasmAdapter with corrected behavior
- HNSW feature availability check (`indexType`)
- Corrected similarity calculation (1 - distance)
- Metadata round-trip support
Full Release Notes
## @ruvector/wasm 0.1.31
Ships the **RuvectorWasmAdapter** (`@ruvector/wasm/adapter`) from #568 and restores a **functional published package** — 0.1.30 had shipped with only `package.json` (empty `pkg/`); 0.1.31 includes the built web `pkg/` (WASM + JS bindings) plus the adapter.
### The adapter corrects three behaviours of the raw WASM build
1. **HNSW not active** — the wasm32 target compiles without the `hnsw` feature and falls back to a flat (brute-force) index. The adapter surfaces this via `indexType` / `WASM_HNSW_AVAILABLE` instead of letting callers assume O(log n).
2. **`score` was a cosine distance** (lower is better), contradicting the `.d.ts`. The adapter exposes a real `similarity = 1 - distance` (per-metric) so "higher is better" holds, with the raw `distance` preserved.
3. **Metadata did not round-trip** — `search`/`get` returned `{}`. The adapter keeps an in-process metadata sidecar keyed by id and re-attaches it on the way out.
### Usage
```js
import { RuvectorWasmAdapter } from '@ruvector/wasm/adapter';
const index = await RuvectorWasmAdapter.create({ dimensions: 384, metric: 'cosine' });
index.insert({ id: 'doc_1', vector: embedding, metadata: { title: 'My Document' } });
const results = index.search({ vector: query, k: 10 });
// results[i].similarity (higher better), .distance (raw), .metadata (round-trips), index.indexType ('flat')
```
