refresh-context

Refresh or reuse per-paper research context.

Invocation#

Shell
lem-cli refresh-context [--force] [--limit <n>]

Inputs and options#

  • --force rescrapes full-text context instead of using cached-or-local context.
  • --limit <n> processes only the first n registry papers. The parser accepts any integer; zero or a negative value therefore selects no papers.

Output and state#

Without --force, loads cached-or-local context and persists any newly built context. With --force, performs a full-text scrape. The JSON summary reports each paper, paper_count, refreshed_or_created, reused_existing, and failed.

The process exits nonzero after printing the summary when one or more forced scrapes are incomplete.

Refusals#

  • --limit without an integer refuses with “--limit needs a number”.
  • Any other argument refuses with “refresh-context: unknown option <argument>”.
  • An empty or unreadable registry refuses with “registry empty or not found at <path>”.
