CLI Companion Entities

ed companion entities

The people, projects, places, organisations and other named things the companion has resolved, each with every spelling it has seen. Embeddings smear proper nouns, so entities are what keep one person from becoming two.

Usage:

ed companion entities [--limit <n>] [--json] [--endpoint <url>]

Aliases span scripts deliberately. A name in Devanagari, the same name romanised and the two ways you habitually misspell it resolve to one entity, which is where multilingual retrieval otherwise dies. Retrofitting that means re-resolving the whole graph, so it is done at extraction time.

--json shape: an array of {id, kind, canonicalName, aliases, mentionCount, firstSeen, lastSeen}.

Kinds are person, project, place, organisation and thing. --limit defaults to 30 and must be positive.

Entities are also a retrieval channel: a question that names one walks from the entity to the episodes that mention it, alongside vector and keyword search.
