How are the documents categorized?

The skill automatically groups findings into specific types including tickets, research, plans, pull requests (PRs), and general notes.

How does it handle searchable subdirectories?

It includes logic to report the correct non-searchable path when documents are located within a thoughts/searchable/ directory.

Does it perform deep analysis of document content?

No, it is designed for rapid discovery and provides one-line descriptions to help you identify relevant files without reading through them entirely.

Why use this skill instead of a standard file search?
