This is best shown with an example. Here I use view although the same is true for any command that takes an existing file name like view or edit.

kb view test

This currently does looks in up to 3 places for the file:

If test is an integer, it will try to find a file with that id (obviously not in this case)
It will try to find a file in dataDir called test
It will try to find a file in dataDir called test.md

This is ok for now while all files are markdown although it might be more useful to check the DB after determining it is not an ID.

This way, we could match a unique string.
