What search matches

Search matches document titles, paths, and slugs. It does not search the text inside documents.If you remember a phrase but not which document it is in, the palette will not find it. Body text is not part of what the palette looks at, and neither are tags, descriptions, or a document’s type.
Full-text search over document bodies does exist, but only for agents. A connected agent calling the search_documents tool over MCP can search the contents of your documents and get matching snippets back. The web palette calls a different, narrower search. So the palette works for jumping to a document you can name. Finding one you can only describe takes an agent. Results are documents only. Folders, tags, and people do not appear.

​
Using the palette

Open the palette with an empty query and it immediately lists your ten most recently updated documents, so getting back to what you were just in takes two keystrokes. Start typing and it searches as you go, returning up to 25 matches. Exact title matches rank first, then titles that start with what you typed, then titles that contain it, then everything else. Ties go to the most recently updated document. Each row shows a file icon, the label Doc, the document title, and when it was last updated. The first row is highlighted as soon as results arrive, and the highlighted row shows Enter on the right. The footer repeats those hints and shows the result count. Selecting a result opens the document in place, without a full page load. Deleted documents never appear in results.
