this strikes me as a bad idea, given how established the `repo` tool is.
without much thinking and reading prior conversations, i'd go with "query", because it's a database-like metadata ... query. the obvious followup idea would then be "meta", but that suggests that it isn't only a read-only command, which i think it is supposed to remain?
