🎖️ Success Criteria for Next Session

Primary Goal: Implement Issue #14 - Database Query CLI Interface

  • Extend CLI with comprehensive database querying capabilities
  • Add commands for metadata search, relationship mapping, and content discovery
  • Expose DatabaseManager functionality through user-friendly query interface
  • Leverage completed AST caching system for enhanced query performance

Success Indicators:

  • Users can search and filter documents based on metadata and content
  • Database relationships and file hierarchies queryable through CLI
  • Query commands integrate seamlessly with existing CLI architecture
