Rebuild Duende Docs Index Command

Clear and immediately rebuild the duende-docs search index. This is faster than /clear-duende-docs-cache + waiting for next search because it triggers the rebuild immediately.

When to Use

• After manually editing index.yaml or documentation files
• When search results seem stale or incorrect
• After a git pull with documentation changes
• When you need search working immediately

Difference from /clear-duende-docs-cache

Command	Action	Search Availability
/clear-duende-docs-cache	Clears cache only	Rebuild on next search (lazy)
/rebuild-duende-docs-index	Clears + rebuilds	Immediate (eager)

Arguments

• No arguments: Show plan and ask for confirmation
• --force: Skip confirmation and rebuild immediately

Instructions

This command clears the Duende documentation search cache and immediately rebuilds the index.

Check Current Status

First, check the current cache state. Report whether the cache exists, is valid, and when it was last built.

Request Confirmation

Unless the user passed --force, show a rebuild plan with the current cache state and ask for confirmation before proceeding. Explain that rebuilding takes a few seconds and search will be unavailable during the rebuild.

Clear and Rebuild

Once confirmed (or if --force was passed):

1. Clear the cache using the clear_cache.py script
2. Rebuild the index using rebuild_index.py
3. Verify the rebuild succeeded using manage_index.py verify

Report Results

Report the new index statistics including document count and build time. Confirm that search is now available.
