Module daemon_client 

Functions

daemon_health_check

Check if the daemon is reachable by hitting /health.

daemon_request

Send an HTTP request to the daemon over the IPC channel. Returns the response body as a string.

daemon_tool_call

Call a tool on the daemon’s REST API.

notify_cache_clear

Tell a running daemon to drop its in-memory read cache (SessionCache). Returns true if a daemon was reached. Never auto-starts a daemon — if none is running there is no cache to flush. Force-rebuild CLI commands call this so ctx_read map/signatures stop serving pre-rebuild output from the daemon’s long-lived cache, which CLI index rebuilds otherwise can’t reach (#420).

try_daemon_request

Attempt to connect to the daemon. Returns None if not running.

try_daemon_tool_call_blocking

Blocking helper for CLI commands: calls a daemon tool if the daemon is running. Returns None if the daemon is not running or the call fails. Attempts to auto-start the daemon if it’s not already running.

try_daemon_tool_call_blocking_text

Like try_daemon_tool_call_blocking, but unwraps MCP JSON responses to text for CLI output.
