Use the search Skill when you want your agent to look up previous checkpoints, sessions, or commits before it starts changing code.

​
Before You Start

Make sure you have Skills installed and that entire login works in the environment where your agent runs. The search Skill uses entire search, summarizes likely matches, and helps the agent decide which checkpoint or session to inspect next.

​
Run the Skill

Use the search Skill directly: 
/search where did we move old missions out of the main list
You can also ask in natural language: 
search past work for duplicate validation

​
Tips for Writing Search Prompts

Good prompts include the feature, behavior, bug, file, or decision you want the agent to find: 
search past work for duplicate validation in the checkout form

search previous sessions about retry logic for failed mirror pushes

find the checkpoint where we changed auth token refresh behavior
Avoid vague prompts like: 
search the old thing

​
Continue with

Search in the CLI

Run entire search yourself.
