…or handling Address code review feedback from @hotlong: 1. Extract filter conversion logic to shared utility (filter-converter.ts) 2. Add warning for $regex operator (limited regex support) 3. Throw error for unknown operators (no silent failures) 4. Add FilterNode type definition for better type safety 5. Add comprehensive tests for filter conversion Changes: - Created packages/core/src/utils/filter-converter.ts with convertFiltersToAST() and convertOperatorToAST() - Updated objectstack-adapter.ts to use shared utility - Updated ObjectQLDataSource.ts to use shared utility - Added 12 new tests covering all filter conversion scenarios - All 119 tests passing Co-authored-by: hotlong <50353452+hotlong@users.noreply.github.com>

Pull request overview
This pull request updates ObjectUI's filter handling to comply with ObjectStack Protocol v0.1.2+ by converting MongoDB-like filter operators to FilterNode AST format. The implementation introduces filter conversion utilities and updates both the core ObjectStackAdapter and the ObjectQLDataSource to use this new filter format.
Changes:
- Added filter-converter utility modules with MongoDB-to-AST conversion logic
- Updated ObjectStackAdapter and ObjectQLDataSource to convert filters before sending to the server
- Added comprehensive test coverage for filter conversion in the core package
- Updated documentation to explain the filter conversion and supported operators

There was a problem hiding this comment.
The documentation example shows using $regex with a pattern '^John', but the implementation converts regex patterns to simple substring matching using the 'contains' operator. This is misleading because the regex anchor ^ (start of string) will be treated as a literal character in the substring match, not as a regex pattern.
Consider either:
- Updating this example to use
$startswithinstead:name: { $startswith: 'John' }which accurately reflects the intended behavior - Adding a warning note that regex patterns are not fully supported and anchors/special characters will be treated literally

The filter-converter utility is duplicated across two packages (packages/core/src/utils/filter-converter.ts and packages/data-objectql/src/utils/filter-converter.ts). This violates the principle of having a single source of truth and creates maintenance burden.
According to the ObjectUI architecture guidelines (Rule #5: Type Safety over Magic), there should be a central registry and shared types. The FilterNode type and conversion utilities should be defined in one location, preferably in the @object-ui/types package, and reused by both packages.
Recommendation: Move the FilterNode type definition to @object-ui/types and create a single implementation of the filter converter utilities that can be imported by both @object-ui/core and @object-ui/data-objectql packages.

The filter-converter utility tests are only present in the @object-ui/core package. Since the same utility exists in @object-ui/data-objectql, it should have its own test coverage as well, or the duplication should be eliminated by making data-objectql depend on core for this utility.
Currently, there's no test file at packages/data-objectql/src/utils/tests/filter-converter.test.ts to verify the behavior of the duplicated code in this package.

There are trailing spaces after the closing brace on this line. While this is a minor formatting issue, it's good practice to keep the codebase clean of trailing whitespace.
