AI Summary

Corrects the RuvectorWasmAdapter by fixing HNSW availability reporting, similarity scoring logic, and metadata round-tripping capabilities.

Key Highlights

  • Corrects HNSW availability reporting to surface `indexType` instead of assuming O(log n).
  • Fixes `score` calculation to return similarity (higher is better) rather than cosine distance.
  • Restores metadata round-tripping functionality that was previously returning empty objects.
  • Restores a functional published package with built web binaries.

New Features

  • RuvectorWasmAdapter
  • HNSW availability fix
  • Similarity score calculation fix
  • Metadata round-trip fix
  • Adapter validation tests

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')
```
