 # Changelog
 
+## 2025-11-17 - 2.0.14 - fix(smartmongo.plugins)
+Use default import for mongodb-memory-server (Deno compatibility), update hints and bump package version to 2.0.13
+
+- Replace namespace import with default import for mongodb-memory-server to ensure compatibility with Deno (ts/smartmongo.plugins.ts).
+- Add readme.hints.md documenting the Deno compatibility change and the reason for using a default import.
+- Bump package.json version to 2.0.13.
+- Note: ts/00_commitinfo_data.ts still lists version 2.0.12 and may need to be updated to match package.json.
+
 ## 2025-04-06 - 2.0.12 - fix(ci/config)
 Update CI workflow environment variables, refine package metadata, and improve configuration settings

+### mongodb-memory-server Import
+- The package uses a **default import** for `mongodb-memory-server` in `ts/smartmongo.plugins.ts`
+- Syntax: `import mongoPlugin from 'mongodb-memory-server';`
+- This works in both Node.js and Deno environments
+- **Why:** Deno wraps CommonJS exports in a `default` property, so default imports are required
+- Fixed in version 2.0.13 (changed from `import * as mongoPlugin`)
