Is this a new bug?

• [X] I believe this is a new bug
• [X] I have searched the existing issues, and I could not find an existing issue for this bug

Current Behavior

canopy start --index-name test-name Error: Failed to initialize Canopy server. Reason: The index canopy--first-pinecone does not exist or was deleted. Please create it by calling knowledge_base.create_canopy_index() or running the canopy new command

Expected Behavior

Expected the canopy start command to initialize the Canopy server with the specified index name without errors.

Steps To Reproduce

In the Canopy virtual environment. Using the config with specified index-name. Run canopy start --index-name canopy--todd-sergio. See error.

Relevant log output

No response

Environment

- **OS**:
- **Language version**:
- **Canopy version**:

Additional Context

i am not sure if there is a different way to reference this specific index, maybe by setting up a environment variable but setting the INDEX_NAME and PINECONE_ENVIRONMENT variables did not change it from asuming the default name. This index-name command did work however when upserting to the model which is why I was confused when it couldnt run to it

@sfdrada thanks for the issue. I think it should be clearer in the docs but you should pass the index name without the canopy-- prefix. Both INDEX_NAME env variable and passing to canopy start as an argument should work as expected. Please let me know if it solves your issue.

in my .env file i set the INDEX_NAME = "test-name" which is the same name as my index

Maybe passing in a name string or value makes it not work for directly referencing what index you want to use but referring to the index variable will work if you assign it to your index name.
