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]Prop
Type
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]Prop
Type
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 — 60–90% fewer tokens on tests, builds, git, and searches, with zero error-line loss.
