libripgrep isn't currently a thing (not merged to mainline). On reddit, the author noted that ripgrep (and other utilities) need to be on the PATH, which is one of the issues related to windows packaging.
libripgrep has been on master since 0.10.0. There just isn't any high level documentation for it.
It's not clear whether libripgrep would be a good fit for this project or not. They would need to reroll all the arg parsing logic themselves. libripgrep is really about building your own search tools (or more specialized tools) using the same internal infrastructure as ripgrep. But yeah, this is why I need high level docs to explain this stuff. I've been putting it off until I get bstr straightened out.
