Why would it do that? Can't it just be added to the search index and then "archived"?

grep doesn't have a search index.
But wouldn't you expect a grep to download the files so they could be searched, as opposed to a locate or find, which I wouldn't expect to do that.
I thought I was inquiring about Dropbox, not grep.
