Vault Search

Find notes across Notes/*/ subfolders that match a natural language query.

Approach

Interpret the query and search across multiple dimensions:

• Type match: If the query implies a note type (e.g., "guides about X"), grep frontmatter for type matches
• Tag match: If the query maps to a known tag, grep frontmatter — highest-confidence results
• Title match: Search filenames across all Notes/*/ subfolders
• Content match: Grep note bodies for keywords

Notes matching multiple dimensions rank higher than single-dimension matches.

Presenting results

Show top results in a table: note name (as [[wikilink]]), type, tags, match reason. Cap at ~15 for broad queries. If nothing matched, suggest alternative terms or tags.

Relevance over completeness.
