+- **Status:** ✅ RESOLVED
+- **Current Line:** 213-239
+- **Validation:** Now validates structure with recognized config keys
+- **Code:**
+  ```typescript
+  // Validate structure - if there are keys, at least one should be recognized
+  const configKeys = Object.keys(config)
+  const hasValidKey = configKeys.some((key) =>
+    VALID_CONFIG_KEYS.includes(key as (typeof VALID_CONFIG_KEYS)[number]),
+  )
+

+      console.error('  Usage: --config=path/to/config.js')
+      process.exit(1)
+    }
+    configPath = value
+    continue
+  }
+  ```
+- **Notes:** Comprehensive validation for empty paths
+
+#### M2. validateConfigFileExists Type Annotation Misleading ✅ RESOLVED
+- **Original Line:** 160
+- **Status:** ✅ RESOLVED
+- **Current Line:** 178
+- **Validation:** Signature changed to `void` return type
+- **Code:**
+  ```typescript
+  function validateConfigFileExists(resolvedPath: string): void {
+    if (!fs.existsSync(resolvedPath)) {

+#### M4. Error Message Duplication in IIFE Catch ✅ RESOLVED
+- **Original Line:** 314-317
+- **Status:** ✅ RESOLVED
+- **Current Line:** 376-388
+- **Validation:** Error message now more specific
+- **Code:**
+  ```typescript
+  } catch (error) {
+    // This catches errors from runCli, not loadConfigAsync
+    // (loadConfigAsync has its own error handling that calls process.exit)
+    console.error(`\nError: Failed to initialize CLI`)
+    if (error instanceof Error) {
+      console.error(`  ${error.message}`)
+      if (error.stack) {

+    const nextArg = argv[i + 1]
+    if (!nextArg || nextArg.startsWith('-')) {
+      console.error('\nError: --config requires a path')
+      console.error('  Usage: --config path/to/config.js')
+      process.exit(1)
+    }
+    if (nextArg.length === 0) {
+      console.error('\nError: --config path cannot be empty')
+      process.exit(1)
+    }
+    configPath = nextArg
+    i++ // Skip the path argument
+    continue
+  }
+  ```
+- **Notes:** All edge cases now handled
+
+### Low Priority Issues (3 total)
+
+#### L1. Magic Number in extractConfigPath 📍 MOVED

+- **Code Example:**
+  ```typescript
+  Effect.runSync(Console.error(`\n${e.message}`))
+  return Effect.succeed(null)
+  ```
+- **Notes:** Breaks Effect composition model, still present
+
+#### 3. Duplicated Error Handling Code ✓ VALID
+- **Locations:**
+  - `index-cmd.ts`: Lines 256-276 and 308-360 (embedding error handlers)
+  - `search.ts`: Lines 368-386, 416-461, 513-559 (triple duplication)

+- **Status:** ✓ VALID
+- **Validation:** `isEffectCliValidationError` and `formatEffectCliError` still present
+- **Code:**
+  ```typescript
+  export const isEffectCliValidationError = (error: unknown): boolean => {
+    if (error && typeof error === 'object') {
+      const err = error as Record<string, unknown>
+      return (
+        err._tag === 'ValidationError' ||
+        err._tag === 'MissingValue' ||
+        err._tag === 'InvalidValue'
+      )
+    }
+    return false
+  }
+  ```
+- **Notes:** Technical debt, consider deprecation timeline
+
+#### 5. Inconsistent Error Messages ✓ VALID
+- **Status:** ✓ VALID
+- **Examples:**
+  - `index-cmd.ts:109`: `console.error('Watch error: ${error.message}')`
+  - `stats.ts:56`: `yield* Console.error('No index found.')`
+- **Notes:** Mixed paradigms still present
+
+### Command-Specific Issues
+
+#### index-cmd.ts Issues ✓ VALID
+1. **Line 117**: Direct `process.exit(0)` in SIGINT handler - ✓ VALID
+2. **Lines 261-355**: `Effect.runSync` in error handlers (8 occurrences) - ✓ VALID
+3. **Lines 256-276, 308-360**: Duplicated error handling - ✓ VALID
+
+#### search.ts Issues ✓ VALID
+1. **Lines 368-580**: Triple-duplicated error handling in `handleMissingEmbeddings()` - ✓ VALID
+2. **Lines 418-421**: Silent error suppression - ✓ VALID
+3. **Line 318**: Semantic search errors propagate (inconsistent with embedding errors) - ✓ VALID
+
+#### context.ts Issues 📍 MOVED
+1. **Line 161**: `continue` on section not found - 📍 MOVED to Line 161 (verified)
+   - **Status:** Still valid, silently continues when section not found
+   - **Code:**
+     ```typescript
+     if (extractedSections.length === 0) {
+       yield* Console.error(`No sections found matching "${sectionSelector}" in ${file}`)
+       yield* Console.error('Use --sections to list available sections.')
+       continue
+     }
+     ```
+
+#### stats.ts, tree.ts, links.ts, backlinks.ts, config-cmd.ts ✓ VALID
+- All issues documented remain valid

+## Recommendations
+
+### Immediate Actions
+1. ✅ **main.ts critical issues**: Already resolved - excellent progress
+2. **Refactor duplicated error handlers**: High priority, affects search.ts and index-cmd.ts
+3. **Replace Effect.runSync**: Medium priority, 15+ occurrences across codebase
+
+### Future Improvements
+1. **Document error handling strategy**: Add guidelines for when to catch vs propagate
+2. **Remove legacy error handling**: Deprecate `isEffectCliValidationError` if no longer needed
+3. **Standardize console usage**: Migrate all `console.error` to `Console.error`
+4. **Add error accumulation**: For batch operations like context command
+
+### Estimated Effort
+- **Duplicated error handlers**: 2-3 hours (extract to shared functions)
+- **Effect.runSync replacement**: 3-4 hours (15+ occurrences)
+- **Process.exit removal**: 4-5 hours (requires Effect interrupt mechanism)
+- **Documentation**: 1-2 hours (error handling guidelines)
+
+**Total**: 10-14 hours for complete remediation
+
+---
+
+## Validation Methodology
+
+1. **Line Number Verification**: Each referenced line was checked against the current codebase
+2. **Code Pattern Matching**: Exact code snippets verified or noted as changed
+3. **Issue Status Determination**:
+   - ✅ **RESOLVED**: Code changed to fix the issue
+   - ✓ **VALID**: Issue still exists as described
+   - 📍 **MOVED**: Issue still exists but at different line number (±5 lines)
+   - ❌ **NOT FOUND**: Issue no longer applicable or code removed
+
+4. **Context Verification**: Surrounding code reviewed to ensure issue understanding is correct
+
+---
+
+## Conclusion
+
+The validation shows **significant improvement** in the main.ts file, with 75% of issues resolved. The CLI error handling document remains highly accurate, with all issues still present and correctly documented. The reviews provide valuable guidance for continued improvement of the codebase.
+
+**Next Steps:**
+1. Update both review documents with validation metadata
+2. Create GitHub issues for remaining high-priority items
+3. Plan refactoring sprint for duplicated error handlers
+4. Document error handling best practices for the team
