# Reindex
Rebuild the cqs search index and compare stats.
## Process
1. **Before stats**: Run `cqs stats` and capture output (chunk count, note count, HNSW status)
2. **Reindex**:
- Default: `cqs index` (incremental — only re-embeds changed files)
- With `--force` argument: `cqs index --force` (full rebuild)
3. **After stats**: Run `cqs stats` again
4. **Compare**: Show before/after diff:
- Chunks: added, removed, unchanged
- Notes: count change
- HNSW vectors: count change
- Call graph: call count change
5. **Verify**: Run a quick search to confirm index is working:
- `cqs "parse source file"` — should return results
- If no results, something is wrong — investigate
## When to use
- After significant code changes
- After editing `docs/notes.toml` manually (if `cqs watch` isn't running)
- After switching branches with different file sets
- When search results seem stale or wrong
