Automate real-time code indexing by running a watch daemon that continuously monitors your project for file changes and updates embeddings incrementally. You can start the process using standard CLI commands in either foreground or background mode.

Monitoring a multi-project workspace is handled by the watch daemon, which supports ongoing indexing across multiple directories. It tracks file modifications and automatically updates the codebase indices without requiring manual re-indexing.

Check the background indexing daemon status by running the specific status check CLI command. This reports the current lifecycle state and progress of the real-time code indexing process.

You can fully manage the daemon lifecycle from the CLI using standard commands to start, check status, and stop the process. This allows seamless control over both foreground and background indexing operations.

Incremental indexing is needed to maintain up-to-date code indices efficiently, as it updates embeddings only for changed files rather than reprocessing the entire project. This saves time and computing resources in active repositories.
