You might ask

“Re-read the schema; we just added tables.”

Your assistant may call rebuild_index to answer.

How it works

full (default) reads structure and sample values; shallow reads structure only and is quicker on big schemas.
Only one build runs per database at a time; a second request waits for the first.

depthstring: Index scope: "shallow" (structure only) or "full" (structure + sample values). Default "full".

The description nexql-mcp sends with the tool. It's how the assistant decides when to use it.
