# cheat

Local command-helper retrieval system using JSONL, SQLite, and sentence-transformers.

## Setup

```sh
export HF_HOME="$PWD/models/hf"
export SENTENCE_TRANSFORMERS_HOME="$PWD/models/hf"
python -m venv .venv
source .venv/bin/activate
pip install -U pip
pip install -r requirements.txt
python init_db.py
python build_index.py
```

Then run a query like this:

```sh
python query_index.py "get free disk space"
```

To add commands, add to `./cards.jsonl` and rebuild the index:

```sh
python build_index.py
```

For fast repeated queries, start the Unix-socket server once in another terminal:

```sh
python query_index.py --serve
```

Then keep using the same query command:

```sh
python query_index.py "get free disk space"
```

To run the server in the background:

```sh
nohup python query_index.py --serve >/tmp/cheat.log 2>&1 &
```

Useful controls:

```sh
python query_index.py --status
python query_index.py --reload
python query_index.py --stop
```
