Vault Navigator — Knowledge Oracle

Navigate the vault intelligently. Picks the right search strategy based on what the user needs.

Search Strategy Decision Tree

"Have we seen this?" / "Best practice for X"

salvador_core op:search_intelligent
  params: { query: "<question>" }

If results are weak, fall back to op:search with explicit filters (type, category, tags, severity).

"Show me everything about X" (Exploration)

salvador_core op:vault_tags
salvador_core op:vault_domains
salvador_core op:vault_recent

"What's stale?" / "What needs updating?"

salvador_core op:vault_age_report

"What do other projects do?"

salvador_core op:memory_cross_project_search
  params: { query: "<topic>", crossProject: true }
salvador_core op:project_linked_projects

"Has brain learned about X?"

salvador_core op:brain_strengths
salvador_core op:brain_global_patterns
  params: { domain: "<domain>" }

Session Memory Search

For queries about recent work or session-specific knowledge:

salvador_core op:memory_search
  params: { query: "<session-specific query>" }

Broad exploration ("What do I know about X?")

Chain: search_intelligent -> vault_tags / vault_domains -> memory_cross_project_search -> brain_strengths. Label each finding with its source.

Presenting Results

Always include: Source (vault/memory/brain), Confidence (score), Relevance (why it matches), Next step (how to apply).

Fallback: Web Search

If all vault strategies return nothing, search the web. If web finds something useful, offer to capture: op:capture_quick.

Common Mistakes

• Using only one search strategy instead of trying multiple
• Not labeling result sources (user can't judge confidence)
• Saying "nothing found" without trying web search fallback
