 - Spring mappings now include every declared path combination and resolve constants declared in the same file, while unresolved paths no longer appear as false root routes. (#1461)
 - `codegraph callers`, `codegraph callees` and `codegraph impact` now resolve qualified names, group results and JSON edges by definition, and accept `--file` to narrow ambiguous names; thanks @ferrine. (#1512, #1656)
+- Spring controller methods no longer appear to have no route callers when a similarly named method ranks higher in search. (#1442)
 - `codegraph callers`, `codegraph callees` and `codegraph impact` (CLI and MCP) now report missing names with did-you-mean suggestions instead of another symbol's results, and exact matches with no callers stay empty; thanks @uvmplus. (#1473, #1481)
