Query AI Memex

Help the user search their AI Memex knowledge base for relevant entries.

Search Strategy

Search in order of priority:

1. Local .ai-memex/ directory

Check if the current project has a .ai-memex/ directory and search it first:

grep -ri "{search_term}" .ai-memex/

2. Central store (if accessible)

If you can determine the lqdev.me repo location, search the canonical source:

grep -ri "{search_term}" C:\Dev\website\_src\resources\ai-memex\

Note: The central store path may vary. Check for PersonalSite.fsproj in common development directories, or ask the user for the path.

3. Search by tag

Tags are in YAML frontmatter. Search for specific tags:

grep -l "tags:.*{tag_name}" .ai-memex/*.md
grep -l "tags:.*{tag_name}" C:\Dev\website\_src\resources\ai-memex\*.md

4. Search by entry type

grep -l "entry_type: pattern" .ai-memex/*.md
grep -l "entry_type: research" C:\Dev\website\_src\resources\ai-memex\*.md

Response Format

When returning results, show:

1. Entry title (from YAML title field)
2. Entry type and tags
3. Brief excerpt (first 2-3 lines of content after frontmatter)
4. File path for reference

If multiple results, rank by relevance to the query.
