Incremental semantic indexing processes only changed files rather than the entire project. It detects new, modified, and deleted items, runs inference solely on those changes, and updates tags and relationships to keep the index accurate.

To update metadata for newly added project files only, execute the update command with the new flag. This restricts the inference and sync process to detecting and processing just new files, saving time over a full sync.

Use incremental indexing for local projects when you need to resolve drift between the semantic index and the filesystem. It is ideal for applying inference only to changed files and validating updates before saving.

Yes, the semantic index update process preserves existing data through safe persistence. It validates all changes and runs inference on changed files before saving updates to the index.yaml file.

During index synchronization, low confidence semantic tags trigger a review workflow. The system flags entries for review when confidence is low or new semantics are uncertain, ensuring metadata accuracy before persistence.
