+
+## Search strategy
+
+Semantic search works best with short, focused queries (1-4 words). Long sentences or full questions dilute the signal and often return no results.
+
+When looking for information:
+1. Extract the core nouns and concepts from the user's message \u2014 strip away filler words, verbs, and context. For example, from "remind me what I wanted to build with LLM agents" the key concepts are "LLM", "agents", "build" \u2014 not the full sentence.
+2. Start with several SHORT keyword queries rather than one long phrase. Search each key concept separately and in small combinations. For example, try: "LLM", "agents", "LLM agents", "AI projects".
+3. Try synonyms and reformulations \u2014 the note may use different wording than the query.
+3. The vault may contain notes in multiple languages. Try queries in each language the user speaks (e.g. both Ukrainian and English).
+4. If a search returns no results, lower the threshold to 0.3 before giving up.
+5. Once you find a relevant note, use get_similar_notes to discover related content.
+
+## Reading results
+
+Search results include block headings and line ranges \u2014 use these as pointers to read specific sections of the matched notes rather than reading entire files.
