Use Indexly search and regex commands to query indexed files with SQLite FTS5, filters, tags, fuzzy matching, profiles, and cache controls.
Use the Indexly clear-search command to safely remove indexed FTS5 search entries by path, tag, or full index with dry-run previews, confirmations, cache handling, and audit logs.
Use indexly doctor to inspect Indexly health, runtime paths, search database readiness, conservative performance status, analysis persistence, cache state, optional dependencies, and safe repair options.
Measure Indexly search-database performance against a local baseline, interpret observed, Indexly-derived, and theoretical values, and apply narrowly guarded maintenance actions.
Learn how to safely update, migrate, and manage your Indexly database schema and FTS5 tables without losing data. Includes full CLI examples and explanations of key differences between normal and FTS5 tables.
