grepai init
CLI reference for grepai init
Initialize grepai in the current directory
Synopsis
Initialize grepai by creating a .grepai directory with configuration.
This command will:
- Create .grepai/config.yaml with default settings
- Prompt for the embedding provider (ollama, lmstudio, openai, synthetic, openrouter or requesty) and the storage backend (gob, postgres or qdrant)
- Add .grepai/ to .gitignore if present
Use —provider, —model and —backend to skip those prompts, or —yes to accept the defaults (ollama with nomic-embed-text, gob).
