Code Analysis

Strengths
Genuinely deep implementation with a custom FTS query validator using a visitor pattern over a JSON AST, a sophisticated multi-level cache service with time-based invalidation and schema inference, and cutting-edge MCP server integration. The MemFS-backed document editing workflow and the regex-based SQL++ query splitter show real engineering effort beyond simple API wrapping.
Weaknesses
The extension.ts entry point is a 33kb monolithic activation function that wires up 40+ commands, making it hard to navigate and maintain. The CouchbaseRestAPI class disables TLS verification globally via process.env manipulation, and the query splitter is a fragile regex approach (acknowledged in comments) rather than a proper parser.
