Using XERJ with typewhisper-mac

The prompt

Paste it into your AI agent. It clones TypeWhisper/typewhisper-mac at the pinned commit and indexes it on your machine.

Search the GitHub repository TypeWhisper/typewhisper-mac with XERJ (https://hub.xerj.org/corpus/typewhisper--typewhisper-mac).
Run these in a shell, in order, and check each result before the next:
1. xerj --help  (success: it prints usage). If xerj is missing: curl -fsSL https://xerj.org/get | sh
2. git clone https://github.com/TypeWhisper/typewhisper-mac typewhisper-mac && git -C typewhisper-mac checkout 0440ccd6188f615c0b2a882a229f76639678926c
3. Start a local node and leave it running: xerj --insecure --data-dir ./xerj-data
4. xerj autoindex ./typewhisper-mac --url http://127.0.0.1:9200 --prefix typewhisper-mac --progress plain
5. xerj autoindex map --url http://127.0.0.1:9200
Then answer my question from the indexed files and cite the ax_path of every hit. Query syntax: https://xerj.org/llms.txt
Licence: check the LICENSE file. Read it for the approach only, do not copy code.
