# obsidian-search Find Markdown notes and tasks in an Obsidian vault without loading the whole vault into context. ## Routing 1. **Topic / fuzzy / "notes about X"** → `scripts/meili_search.py`. Typo-tolerant full-text over a Meilisearch index; best when the user won't remember exact words. Expand synonyms yourself across queries. 2. **Exact content, frontmatter, tags, task glyphs** → direct `rg`. 3. **Natural-language dates, overdue comparisons, CJK term extraction** → `scripts/vault_search.py`. If Meilisearch is unreachable or unconfigured (script exits non-zero), fall back to tiers 2–3 — they only need the local vault. Env: `OBSIDIAN_VAULT` (vault root), `MEILI_URL` (default `http://127.0.0.1:7700`), `MEILI_SEARCH_KEY` (file fallback `~/meilisearch/search-key.txt`), `MEILI_INDEX` (default `notes`). ## Meilisearch Run with `--help` for all flags. **Never dump raw hits into context** — use `--fields` and small `--limit`. ```bash uv run scripts/meili_search.py "spaced repetition" --limit 5 --fields "title,path" uv run scripts/meili_search.py "prompt caching" --filter "tags=ai" --sort "updated:desc" --json ``` Hit `path` values are vault-relative (e.g. `Library/Book Notes/Influence.md`); join with `$OBSIDIAN_VAULT` to open. ## Direct Patterns ```bash rg "keyword" --glob "*.md" "$OBSIDIAN_VAULT" rg -lU 'tags:\n(\s*- .*\n)*?\s*- tagname\b' --glob "*.md" "$OBSIDIAN_VAULT" # YAML list tags; prefer meili --filter "tags=tagname" when index is up rg "created: $(date +%Y-%m
