codeindex - Semantic Code Search & Indexing

codeindex is a semantic code search CLI that indexes codebases and provides fast, concept-based search over the current project.

Ownership

The agent owns the codeindex lifecycle for the current project — initialization, indexing, and searching. Do not ask the user to perform these steps; handle them automatically.

• Initialization: If codeindex search or codeindex index fails with an initialization error (e.g., "Not in an initialized project directory"), run codeindex init from the project root directory, then codeindex index to build the index, then retry the original command.
• Index freshness: Keep the index up to date by running codeindex index when the index may be stale — e.g., at the start of a session, or after making significant code changes (new files, refactors, renamed modules). There is no need to re-index between consecutive searches if no code was changed in between.
• Installation: If codeindex itself is not found (command not found), refer to management.md for installation instructions and inform the user.
