Currently nmbug doesn't seem to work with an empty prefix for me.

Error flushing output: <fd:8>: Broken pipe

where <censored> is the complete list of tags in my database.

/tmp/nmbug is a previously cloned repo.

I'm not sure if this is because of some problem with a null prefix
specifically, or just the number of messages involved.
