fix: update error message in search_repository_base to reference semantic extras

phernandez · claude · phernandez · commit 5af621000688 · 2026-02-12T20:45:22.000-06:00
Address PR review feedback — the SemanticDependenciesMissingError in
_assert_semantic_available() now mentions `pip install 'basic-memory[semantic]'`
for consistency with all other error messages.
