brain:rescan

To incrementally sync new project files to an existing knowledge database, run a rescan to detect folder changes since the last scan, extracting only new or modified file knowledge to update the brain database.

Incremental document indexing for workspace maintenance is the process of comparing current folder states against a previous scan to identify changed files and deduplicate extracted entities into the project brain database.

To update your project brain database after revising documentation, trigger a delta scan to read updated memory notes and documents, upserting the extracted entities and synchronizing the file manifests.

Yes, project brain database sync requires an existing project_brain.db file to perform delta scanning, deduplicate decisions and events, and apply incremental knowledge updates safely.

During an incremental scan, knowledge extracted from removed files is preserved in the brain database, while the safe update workflow deduplicates decisions, events, and updates manifests after successful sync.

Yes, you can extract knowledge from updated memory notes and emails without rescanning the entire project by performing targeted knowledge extraction that only reads changed files and upserts new entities into the database.
