feat(plugin): watch extra project paths in a dedicated collection

[talhaanwarch]

Why this is needed

The Claude Code plugin currently only watches .memsearch/memory/ — a single directory for session notes. For teams (or individual developers) working in larger repos with structured knowledge bases like specs, plans, and design docs, this is too narrow. Important context lives in those docs but is never indexed or searchable through the memory system.

What this adds

Automatic extra-path watching (docs/superpowers/)

The plugin now detects docs/superpowers/specs and docs/superpowers/plans at the project git root and, if present, launches a second watcher for them in a dedicated superpowers Milvus collection. No configuration or env vars needed — it just works if the paths exist.

• New start_watch_superpowers() / stop_watch_superpowers() in common.sh, each with their own PID file (.watch-superpowers.pid) so they don't interfere with the main memory watcher
• session-start.sh calls both watchers on startup and indexes superpowers paths in Lite mode
• session-end.sh stops both watchers on cleanup

superpowers-recall skill

A new context: fork skill that searches --collection superpowers. It triggers automatically when the user asks about implementation plans, technical specs, migration stages, or architectural decisions. Follows the same L1 search → L2 expand pattern as memory-recall but targets the superpowers collection.

Why a separate collection

Keeping superpowers docs in their own collection (superpowers) rather than the main session memory collection keeps the two concerns clean:

• Session memory = ephemeral notes, decisions, debugging context from conversations
• Superpowers = durable project knowledge: specs, plans, designs

Separate collections also means different recall skills can have precise, scoped prompts rather than a single noisy search across everything.

Testing

# Index existing docs manually (first time)
memsearch index docs/superpowers/specs docs/superpowers/plans --collection superpowers

# Verify
memsearch search "migration plan" --collection superpowers --top-k 3

# Session hooks are tested by restarting Claude Code in a project that has docs/superpowers/
