company-goat-pp-cli: sync is a no-op stub + search only queries YC (snapshots never indexed) #1349

Description

@Dwight-ship-it

Summary

Two related issues in the local-store layer of company-goat-pp-cli. Core live commands work great — this is only about persistence/search.

Environment

  • company-goat-pp-cli version 2026.6.2
  • macOS (darwin)

Issue 1 — sync is a no-op stub with boilerplate help

$ company-goat-pp-cli sync
{"event":"sync_summary","total_records":0,"resources":0,"success":0,"warned":0,"errored":0,"duration_ms":0}
Sync complete: 0 records across 0 resources (0.0s)

sync --help examples reference resources that don't exist in a company-research tool:

company-goat-pp-cli sync --resources channels,messages

channels,messages looks like leftover boilerplate from a different generated CLI template. There appear to be no real resources registered for sync, so it can never store anything.

Issue 2 — search only queries the YC directory; snapshots aren't indexed

Running a snapshot succeeds and returns rich data:

$ company-goat-pp-cli snapshot --domain anthropic.com --agent   # returns SEC Form D CIKs, etc.

…but the company is not indexed into local FTS afterward:

$ company-goat-pp-cli search "Anthropic" --agent
{"hits":[],"query":"anthropic","sources_searched":["yc"],"total":0}

search only ever reports sources_searched: ["yc"], so "full-text search across companies you've synced previously" can't find anything you've actually snapshotted.

Expected

  • sync either performs a real sync or is removed/documented as unsupported.
  • snapshot/funding results are persisted and discoverable via search (not just the YC directory).

What works (for context)

snapshot, funding, signal, and engineering by --domain all return correct JSON. The SEC Form D fundraising data is genuinely valuable and the standout feature — these issues only block the offline/search story.
