Adding folder to knowledge fails with incorrect file count

Checks

• I have searched github.com/aws/amazon-q-developer-cli/issues and there are no duplicates of my issue
• I have run q doctor in the affected terminal session
• I have run q restart and replicated the issue again

Operating system

macOS 15.6.0 (24G84)

Expected behaviour

When adding a folder to my knowledge base, I expect it to complete indexing successfully.

Actual behaviour

When I add the root folder of my obsidian vault, I get an indexing error. The error says "Directory contains 5001 files, which exceeds the maximum limit of 5000 files"

I have confirmed there are 481 files using find . -type f | wc -l, so not even close to a 5000 file limit.

Steps to reproduce

• Open q
• /knowledge add
• /knowledge status

Reproduziere den Fehler mit q und /knowledge add <path to vault>, überprüfe anschließend /knowledge status und vergleiche die gemeldete Anzahl mit find . -type f | wc -l. Verfolge den knowledge-add-Indizierungspfad, um festzustellen, warum der Ordner als 5001 Dateien gezählt wird; abgeschlossen ist die Aufgabe, wenn die gemeldete Anzahl dem Inhalt des Ordners entspricht und die Indizierung erfolgreich abgeschlossen wird.
