What problem does it solve?

Clone a GitHub repository into ~/Developer/refs/, auto-detect file types, index with QMD, and embed for search.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Clone a GitHub repo into a local refs directory for quick offline access.
  • Auto-detect file types and prepare a structured QMD index for fast search.
  • Embed content to enable search across the repository, with options for dry-run and masking.

Quick Start

Use the qmd add command to clone a repository and start indexing, for example: /qmd:add owner/repo --mask "**/*.{md,mdx}" --name my-repo --dry-run

FAQPage Schema
How do I clone a GitHub repository and index it for local search?

You can clone a GitHub repository and index it for local search by automatically copying the files into a local directory, detecting project file types, and embedding the content with QMD to enable fast queries.

Can I clone a repo and index only specific file types?

Yes, you can clone a repo and index specific file types by applying a mask parameter to filter files like markdown documents during the QMD indexing and embedding process.

Do I need Git and QMD tooling to embed repository content for offline search?

Yes, Git is required to clone the repository into the local directory, and QMD tooling is needed to auto-detect file types, create the index, and embed content for offline search.

What is the best way to prepare a cloned GitHub repo for fast local search?

The best way to prepare a cloned GitHub repo for fast local search is to auto-detect project file types, create a structured QMD index, and embed the content locally for immediate querying.

Can I test repository indexing without embedding the full content?

Yes, you can test repository indexing without embedding the full content by running a dry-run operation, which prepares the QMD index structure without processing all files.

Why does the local repository clone need a specific directory path?

The local repository clone requires a specific directory path to standardize storage in a dedicated refs folder, ensuring the QMD indexing tool can reliably locate and embed the project files.
