Refresh Index
Rebuild the Local Brain Search vector index to ensure semantic search reflects current vault state.
Purpose
The FAISS index is not auto-updated. This playbook rebuilds it so semantic search stays accurate.
State Dependencies
| Source | Location | Read | Write | Description |
|--------|----------|------|-------|-------------|
| Brain notes | Brain/**/*.md | ✓ | | Source content to index |
| Index script | resources/local-brain-search/run_index.sh | ✓ | | Indexer |
| FAISS index | resources/local-brain-search/brain_index/ | | ✓ | Output index |
Prerequisites
- Local Brain Search installed at
resources/local-brain-search/ - Python environment with FAISS dependencies
Process
Step 1: Verify Prerequisites
Check indexer exists:
test -f /Users/eugene/Dropbox/Agents/Cornelius/resources/local-brain-search/run_index.sh && echo "OK" || echo "MISSING"
If missing, abort.
Step 2: Run Indexer
/Users/eugene/Dropbox/Agents/Cornelius/resources/local-brain-search/run_index.sh
Step 3: Verify Index
Confirm index works:
/Users/eugene/Dropbox/Agents/Cornelius/resources/local-brain-search/run_connections.sh --stats --json
Should return valid JSON with note count > 0.
Outputs
- Rebuilt FAISS index at
resources/local-brain-search/brain_index/ - Stats output confirming note count
Error Handling
| Error | Recovery | |-------|----------| | Script missing | Abort - check Local Brain Search installation | | Index fails | Check Python env, disk space | | Stats return 0 notes | Re-run indexer, check Brain path |
Completion Checklist
- [ ] Indexer script exists
- [ ] Index rebuilt without errors
- [ ] Stats query returns valid JSON
- [ ] Note count > 0
