Status and administration
status
Show daemon uptime, index totals, scan freshness, paths, and every volume:
fsindex status
fsindex status --json
Use this to find volume IDs for --volume and to determine whether an empty query result is trustworthy.
reconcile
Force a full rescan of all online volumes:
fsindex reconcile
Or reconcile a single volume by ID:
fsindex reconcile 3
The request is sent to the daemon, which reports the action it scheduled or performed.
reload
Ask the running daemon to reread its configuration file:
fsindex reload
Use status afterward to confirm roots, volumes, and freshness.
paths
Print the default socket and configuration locations without connecting to the daemon:
fsindex paths
config
Print the built-in default configuration as TOML:
fsindex config
This does not print a customized file loaded by a running daemon. Use status to locate that daemon's configuration file.
