# Recall Search past idea-girlie research from any repo. All idea-girlie sessions are filed in a centralized knowledge base using PARA organization. The default path is `~/.idea-girlie/knowledge-base/` — override with the `IDEA_GIRLIE_KB` env var (Manzanita Research users: `~/.manzanita/knowledge-base/`). This skill searches that knowledge base and surfaces what's relevant. ## How it works ### Step 1: Get the search query The user gives you a topic, question, or keyword. Extract the core search terms. ### Step 2: Search in two passes **Pass 1 — Directory names.** Resolve the knowledge base root first: ```bash KB="${IDEA_GIRLIE_KB:-$HOME/.idea-girlie/knowledge-base}" ``` Then glob for session directories matching the topic: ```bash ls -R "$KB/projects/" "$KB/areas/" | grep -i [search-terms] ``` Use the Glob tool with patterns like `$KB/**/*{term}*` to find matching session directories. **Pass 2 — Synthesis content.** Search SYNTHESIS.md files for the search terms: Use the Grep tool to search for the terms across all synthesis files: - Pattern: the search terms - Path: `$KB` (resolved above) - Glob: `**/SYNTHESIS.md` ### Step 3: Present results For each match, show: - **Session name** (the directory slug) - **Filed under** (category/grouping — e.g. `projects/magpie` or `areas/sacred-economics`) - **Date** (from the directory timestamp) - **Key insight** — Read the first few lines of SYNTHESIS.md and pull the most relevant excerpt Keep it concise. 2-4 lines per m
