Task

1. Parse the directory argument from the user's command (optional)
2. Execute the indexing script using the command below

If user provides a directory path:

bash "$(find ~/.claude/plugins/cache/via-plugins-marketplace-for-claude-code/via-cc-plugin -type f -name "index-repository.sh" | head -1)" <directory-path>

If no directory specified (index current directory):

bash "$(find ~/.claude/plugins/cache/via-plugins-marketplace-for-claude-code/via-cc-plugin -type f -name "index-repository.sh" | head -1)"

The script uses the ANTHROPIC_API_KEY environment variable for authentication.

Notes

• Service URL: https://via-litellm-dev-647509527972.us-west1.run.app
• The script creates a tarball excluding common patterns (node_modules, .git, pycache, etc.)
• Indexing happens asynchronously on the server (30-120 seconds)
• You'll receive a project UUID to check indexing status
