CLI Knowledge & Context

The CLI is one of the clearest ways to see what Gestura already knows, what knowledge items are available, and how the context system is classifying a request before execution begins.

Knowledge commands

• gestura knowledge list: list knowledge items.
• gestura knowledge show <id>: inspect one knowledge item.
• gestura knowledge search <query>: search relevant expertise.
• gestura knowledge categories: list knowledge categories when supported by your build.
• gestura knowledge status: check knowledge system status.

Context commands

• gestura context analyze <request>: inspect how Gestura categorizes a request.
• gestura context status: show context-system status.
• gestura context categories: list known context categories.
• gestura context clear: clear context caches.

When these commands are useful

• You want to verify that built-in expertise is available.
• You want to inspect which knowledge item matched a topic.
• You want to understand why a request is being framed a certain way.
• You are debugging context drift, stale matches, or retrieval confusion.

Practical habit

If a task feels under-informed, start by checking the knowledge and context surfaces before changing models or permission levels. Many apparent reasoning problems are really knowledge-selection or context-shaping problems.

Version note

Some builds expose slightly different subcommands. If a command here is unavailable, run gestura knowledge --help or gestura context --help and follow the command surface your install exposes.
