File contents

PKC index

Git + Markdown is the source of truth. knowledge/.pkc/index.sqlite is a disposable accelerator. Deleting it is always valid recovery.

python3 "${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/scripts/pkc_index.py" status --repo .
python3 "${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/scripts/pkc_index.py" refresh --repo .
python3 "${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/scripts/pkc_index.py" refresh --force --repo .
python3 "${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/scripts/pkc_index.py" drop --repo .

Search, pack, and validate refresh the index themselves on each call (mtime+size, not the curate hook). You do not need to run refresh first.

Ladder: index → ripgrep → full scan. --no-index on search/pack/validate skips this rung. PKC_NO_INDEX=1 disables it for the process.

Never commit *.sqlite. Never install packages. Missing FTS5 is not a failure — the lower rungs still run.
