# Cortex Query — Search the Vault
Search the cortexes Obsidian vault using semantic search.
## When to Run This Skill
Run it in exactly two cases:
1. **The user explicitly asks.** "查 cortex", "之前有記過嗎", "cortex 裡有沒有",
"check my notes", "what did I write about X", or the `/cortexes:query`
command. An explicit request is always sufficient on its own.
2. **`using-cortex` routes the request here** after one of its four concrete
signals fired (explicit request, reference to prior work, a topic the
SessionStart hook actually listed, or resuming a previous session). That
skill owns the decision; this one owns the search.
### Do not run it
- For general questions, or for fresh work with no prior-context signal.
- Because a question is difficult, technical, open-ended, or touches
infrastructure or internal tooling. **Difficulty is not a signal.**
- When the user picked option 4 ("直接開始工作") from the SessionStart menu,
skipped the menu, or said "don't check cortex" — that opt-out holds for
the rest of the session until the user explicitly asks (case 1).
- When the conversation, the current repo, or the current turn already
supplies the answer.
An unprompted search costs the user tokens and latency, and unrelated notes
pollute the answer. When no case applies, answer directly and do not mention
the vault.
## Resolve Vault Path
Read `~/.cortex/config.json` and take `vault_path`. If the file is missing or
has no usable `vault_path`, tell the user to run `/cort
