Query: search, status
Ask questions and check sync state from the terminal without involving an editor.
repowise search
Search the wiki by keyword, meaning, or symbol name.
repowise search QUERY [PATH] [OPTIONS]| Parameter | Type | Default | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
--mode | string | fulltext | Search mode: fulltext, semantic, symbol |
--limit | number | 10 | Max results |
--repo | string | — | Scope to a specific workspace repo by alias |
--all | boolean | false | Fan out across every workspace repo and merge results |
--workspace / --no-workspace | boolean | — | Force workspace / single-repo mode |
repowise search "auth token validation"
repowise search "auth token validation" --mode semantic --limit 20
repowise search "GraphBuilder" --mode symbol
repowise search "rate limit" --repo backend # workspace, one repo
repowise search "rate limit" --all # workspace, fan-outModes:
- fulltext: keyword match (SQLite FTS).
- semantic: meaning-based (LanceDB vector search, falls back to FTS).
- symbol: symbol name match.
There is no repowise query command. For question answering and
synthesized explanations (not keyword lookup), use the MCP
get_answer tool from your editor, or the
Chat tab in the web UI (repowise serve).
repowise status
Show the wiki's sync state and page statistics: last sync commit, total pages, provider/model, token usage, and a per-type page breakdown.
repowise status [PATH] [OPTIONS]| Parameter | Type | Default | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
--workspace / -w | boolean | false | Show status for every repo in the workspace |
--no-workspace | boolean | false | Force single-repo status even when invoked from a workspace root |
repowise status
repowise status --workspace
repowise status --no-workspaceIn workspace mode, the table includes a Docs column with each repo's page count and a per-repo docs-status block listing skip reasons and the exact remediation command.
Server & watch: serve, watch, mcp
Run the repowise API and dashboard, auto-update on file save, or expose the MCP server directly to an editor.
Distill: compact command output
Run noisy commands through repowise distill for an errors-first, fully reversible rendering that cuts 60 to 90% of the tokens on tests, builds, git, and searches, with zero error-line loss.
