| description | Search Recall memory using FTS5 full-text search across all tables |
Search across all Recall memory tables (messages, LoA entries, decisions, learnings, breadcrumbs) using SQLite FTS5 full-text search. Supports AND, OR, NOT operators, prefix matching, exact phrases, hard table filtering, and soft table biasing.
Usage
recall search "<query>"
Arguments:
<query> (required): Search query — use the user's argument text
Options:
-p <project> — Filter by project name
-t <table> — Hard-filter to one table: messages, loa, decisions, learnings, breadcrumbs
--bias-type <table> — Softly boost one table without filtering other matches. Same values as -t.
-l <n> — Max results (default: 20)
--show-provenance — Show Record Provenance for every result (by default only unknown provenance is flagged)

recall search "kubernetes deployment"
recall search "database choice" -t decisions
recall search "database choice" --bias-type decisions
