Share the CLI watcher with a reconciled name inventory, observe local
mutations, and retain newer notifications across overlapping reads.
Adopt the shared index for Obsidian and preserve fresh bulk operations.
Apply watcher and logical-target exclusions within the selected Vault so
hidden or database-like parent directories do not suppress monitoring.
Protect primary, previous, and view databases, and provide a runtime opt-in
for ordinary database-like directories without changing database ownership.
Cover hidden roots, symlink restarts, exclusion parity, and encrypted
CouchDB create, modify, and delete operations with regression tests.

IgnoreRules (src/apps/cli/serviceModules/IgnoreRules.ts):
- Reads .livesync/ignore for user-defined glob patterns
- Applies gitignore matchBase semantics: patterns without / get **/ prefix,
patterns ending with / get ** appended for directory contents
- Supports `import: .gitignore` directive to merge gitignore patterns
- Rejects negation patterns with a warning (not fully supportable)
- Integrated into both daemon and mirror commands via isTargetFile handler
Wiring:
- IgnoreRules loaded before LiveSyncBaseCore construction so beginWatch()
receives rules when it fires during onLoad/onFirstInitialise
- Passed through initialiseServiceModulesCLI -> StorageEventManagerCLI ->
CLIStorageEventManagerAdapter -> CLIWatchAdapter
Deployment:
- src/apps/cli/deploy/livesync-cli.service - systemd unit template
- src/apps/cli/deploy/install.sh - user/system install script
Testing:
- src/apps/cli/test/test-daemon-linux.sh - e2e tests for ignore rules
- src/apps/cli/serviceModules/IgnoreRules.unit.spec.ts - 15 unit tests
- src/apps/cli/commands/daemonCommand.unit.spec.ts - 7 unit tests
- Add chokidar ^4.0.0 as dependency (root package.json, runtime-package.json)
- Mark chokidar as external in vite.config.ts (not bundled, loaded at runtime)
- Implement CLIWatchAdapter.beginWatch() with chokidar:
- ignoreInitial: true (startup files handled by mirror scan)
- awaitWriteFinish to prevent partial-write events
- Excludes dotfiles and .livesync/ directory at watcher level
- Maps add/change/unlink/addDir/unlinkDir to IStorageEventWatchHandlers
- Fatal error handler: logs clearly and releases watcher resources
- Add close() to CLIWatchAdapter, StorageEventManagerCLI for clean shutdown
- Register onUnload hook in CLIServiceModules to close watcher on shutdown
