Idea	Status	Tags	Summary	Katz
index			The ideas graph indexer: parse `.rq` with the native engine, extract ideas / edges, persist to rusqlite SQLite. Same-file `[ideaset.member]` edges target the member leaf ( ["../language/syntax.rq".references_to_subidea] ). Wildcard path + idea fan-out: [wildcard_reference_edges] ( ["../language/imports.rq".wildcard_references] ). Ideas Summary graph can hide those edges via [ideas_summary_doc] / ["../extension/workspace-summary/ideas_summary/graphical_graph.rq".wildcard_refs_toggle]. Soft mtime sync skips unchanged files. `extract_version` in the ideas index meta is the extract-rule generation. When that number does not match the engine, sync rebuilds so stale edges do not remain ( ["../language/syntax.rq".inline_code] ). Owned by [ownership]; consumed per [consumption].	0.587
indexer_rust	in-progress		The [index] engine ( parse-for-index → extract → SQLite persist → incremental sync ) should be written in Rust. Crate: `reqlan-index` over `reqlan-parse` per ["../core_analysis/rust_port.rq".rust_crate_layout]. Extractor ports ["../../crates/reqlan-index/src/extract.rs"] including [wildcard_reference_edges]. Store ports schema v4 ( ["../../packages/analytical/src/index-store/schema.ts"] ) via rusqlite; diagnostics live in `index-diagnostics.sqlite` on the same engine. Sync keeps [nonblocking_index]: per-file upsert, mtime skip, hard rebuild, cancellable progress. Not the Langium LSP. Comment-file indexing: [index_code_files].	0.172
wildcard_reference_edges	done		Native extract ( `["../../crates/reqlan-index/src/extract.rs"]` ) expands each AST wildcard against the idea catalog ( `match_wildcard` / workspace candidate list ). Persist one edge of kind `wildcard_reference` per matching idea ( label = target idea name ); never emit plain `references` for wildcard forms. Zero matches → one unresolved edge of the same kind ( `isResolved: false`, label = pattern text ). Edge ids use `edgeId(source, 'wildcard_reference', targetOrUnresolvedKey)`. Sync walks sorted `.rq` files and grows the catalog as it goes, so a wildcard file is expanded against ideas already stored plus files earlier in that walk ( ["../../crates/reqlan-index/src/sync.rs"] ). Ancestor / reference-chain walks treat `wildcard_reference` like `references` ( ["../../packages/analytical/src/index-store/sqlite-store.ts"] ). Ideas Summary references table groups them under sub-idea with other idea-to-idea links; graph visibility is [ideas_summary_doc] / ["../extension/workspace-summary/ideas_summary/graphical_graph.rq".wildcard_refs_toggle]. Soft mtime sync skips unchanged files — after introducing this edge kind, reindex ( or touch ) `.rq` files that contain wildcards so stored rows leave any legacy `references` fan-out. Langium `idea-extractor` keeps the same kind for remaining TS extract paths. Open-file local extract ( [local_symbolic_analysis] ) does not expand wildcards against a catalog.
