# Index management

> Coverage meaning, rebuild timing, Embedding, and troubleshooting

## Where to check status

RAG workspace header or **Index** tab:

* Knowledge-base repo count
* Index coverage (keyword / vector dimensions per UI)
* Current Embedding-related hints

Low coverage means many ingested repos are not yet retrievable by vector/keyword search.

## When to rebuild

| Situation                                    | Recommendation                                 |
| -------------------------------------------- | ---------------------------------------------- |
| Changed Embedding model                      | Rebuild—vector spaces will not align otherwise |
| Just bulk-ingested many repos                | Wait for auto index or trigger manually        |
| Cleared cache and search went empty          | Rebuild                                        |
| Long-term “can’t find” but library non-empty | Check coverage and whether @ is too narrow     |

Rebuild time and API cost scale with library size; watch progress and cancel on large libraries.

## Troubleshooting checklist

1. Is Pro active? → [Restore purchase](/subscribe/restore)
2. Does Embedding pass test? → [AI configuration](/ai-features/configuration)
3. Is the target repo actually ingested? → [Adding repos](/knowledge-base/adding-repos)
4. Did @ accidentally exclude key repos? → [RAG workspace](/knowledge-base/rag-workspace)
5. Chat only, Embedding empty → add Embedding
