Workflow

The CLI follows this workflow:

1. Ingest: Converts your natural language objective into a structured schema
2. Preview: Shows the generated schema and allows editing
3. Configure: Set generator tier, match limits, and other options
4. Run: Executes the FindAll search with real-time progress
5. Output: Saves results to specified directory

Interactive Schema Editor

The CLI provides an interactive editor to:

• View and modify the objective
• Change entity type
• Add, edit, or remove match conditions
• Preview the full JSON schema

Use arrow keys to navigate and follow the prompts.

Output Files

Results are saved to the specified output directory:

• summary.json - Run metadata and statistics
• matches.json - All matched candidates with full details
• candidates.json - All evaluated candidates (matched and unmatched)
• schema.json - Final schema used for the run
• matches.csv - CSV export of matched candidates

Options
