# Add a Folder and All Subfolders Recursively

fd -t d -0 . ~/Simon/Sync | xargs -0 -I{} zoxide add {}
fd -t d -0 . ~/Pictures | xargs -0 -I{} zoxide add {}

Now I can Fuzzy find in yazi and have all folders available, even if I did not cd into them.

# Add with Higher Prio

Or, to make it higher prio, add multiple times - Reload shell, then re-seed Sync with higher weight (loop add → higher rank, survive aging):
