gen-queries.py: pairctl Interaction Analysis

Looking at the script, there are 3 distinct pairctl interactions, all routed through a common helper.

Core Mechanism: ask_llm_for_json() (lines 153-213)

All pairctl calls flow through this helper which:

  1. Generates a unique /tmp/knowctl-{uuid}.json output path
  2. Constructs a prompt with TypeScript schema + instruction to write JSON to that file
  3. Calls pairctl send-message <prompt> --cli <cli> with 5-minute timeout

searchctl CLI redesign analysis for Perplexity API

searchctl CLI Redesign Analysis

Analysis Summary

Current searchctl Issues

  1. Confusing default behavior - Default query uses chat completions; raw is a hidden subcommand
  2. Flag overload - 15+ flags mixed together (model, context, mode, domains, dates, effort, media, etc.)
  3. Model complexity hidden - Four distinct models with different capabilities collapsed into one flag
  4. Pro Search absent - The new search_type: pro/auto feature isn't exposed
