Currently --watch re-runs the full base scan on changes. For AI-augmented watch mode:

  • Detect which directories changed
  • Re-investigate only changed dirs
  • Patch those cache entries
  • Re-run synthesis from updated cache without re-investigating unchanged dirs

This is a significant design change — watch mode + AI is a separate concern from the static investigation pipeline.

Closing as obsolete. Watch mode was deleted in #64 (PR #65) as part of the AI-first scope change. A non-AI filesystem-churn monitor conflicts with the new philosophy.

If a live update mode comes back, it goes in as a new issue framed as incremental AI re-investigation: detect which directories changed, re-investigate only those, patch the cache entries, re-run synthesis from the updated cache. The original framing in this issue (watch mode + AI) no longer fits because there is no watch mode to add AI to.
