Issue Description
Qoder’s index unexpectedly turned off automatically and could not be re-enabled. After the index was disabled, file read and directory search features were also deactivated, rendering the assistant unable to access or analyze local project files.
Steps to Reproduce
-
Launch Qoder (v0.2.8) on macOS.
-
Open any project directory (in this case, a React/Vite app).
-
Wait for Qoder to finish initial indexing.
-
Observe that the index disables itself automatically after a short time.
-
Attempt to re-enable indexing manually via the sidebar or settings → indexing.
-
Attempt to perform a file read or search operation.
Expected Behavior
- Qoder should maintain an active index unless manually disabled.
- File read and directory search should remain available even after minor internal restarts or background re-indexing.
Actual Behavior
- The index turns off automatically and cannot be toggled back on.
- File read and directory search are both disabled and return “feature unavailable” or no response.
- Restarting Qoder or VSCode does not restore functionality.
