🧠

Embedding Semantic

bge-small-zh per-turn vectors. Finds conceptually related content even with different wording.

🔀

RRF Merge

Reciprocal Rank Fusion combines both rankings. Best of both worlds, no tuning needed.

Two Ways to Search

Method	How	Best for
`/` in list	Real-time text filter in current list	Quick narrowing by visible text
`s` in list	Hybrid search (FTS5 + embedding)	Semantic search, cross-language
`kiro-session search`	CLI hybrid search	Scripting, piping, --json output

Filters

Combine with search to narrow results further.

Filter	What it matches	Example
`--file <path>`	Files touched in the session	`--file Dockerfile`
`--cmd <command>`	Commands run during the session	`--cmd docker`
`--dir <directory>`	Working directory	`--dir api`
`--recent <duration>`	Last updated within	`--recent 7d`
