  ## Tips
378
288
  1. Read screenpipe://context first to get current timestamps
379
- 2. Use search-ui-events for "what did I type?" queries
380
- 3. Use get-ui-event-stats to understand app usage patterns
381
- 4. Combine search-content (what was on screen) with search-ui-events (what was done)
289
+ 2. Use content_type=input for "what did I type?" queries
290
+ 3. Use content_type=accessibility for accessibility tree text
291
+ 4. For large aggregations (e.g. "what apps did I use today?"), paginate with offset or suggest the user run raw SQL via \`curl -X POST http://localhost:3030/raw_sql\` for efficient GROUP BY queries
382
292
 
383
- ## Timeline Deep Links
384
- When showing search results to users, create clickable links to specific moments:
293
+ ## Deep Links (Clickable References)
294
+ When showing search results to users, create clickable links so they can jump to that exact moment.
385
295
 
386
- **Format:** \`[readable time](screenpipe://timeline?timestamp=ISO8601_TIMESTAMP)\`
296
+ **ALWAYS prefer frame-based links for OCR results** (frame IDs are exact DB keys):
297
+ - \`[10:30 AM — Chrome](screenpipe://frame/12345)\` — use \`content.frame_id\` from OCR results
387
298
 
388
- **Examples:**
389
- - \`[10:30 AM](screenpipe://timeline?timestamp=2024-01-15T18:30:00Z)\`
390
- - \`[yesterday at 3pm](screenpipe://timeline?timestamp=2024-01-14T15:00:00Z)\`
299
+ **Use timestamp links only for audio results** (which have no frame_id):
300
+ - \`[meeting at 3pm](screenpipe://timeline?timestamp=2024-01-15T15:00:00Z)\` — use exact \`timestamp\` from audio results

  ## Tips
373
281
  1. Read screenpipe://context first to get current timestamps
374
- 2. Use search-ui-events for "what did I type?" queries
375
- 3. Use get-ui-event-stats to understand app usage patterns
376
- 4. Combine search-content (what was on screen) with search-ui-events (what was done)
282
+ 2. Use content_type=input for "what did I type?" queries
283
+ 3. Use content_type=accessibility for accessibility tree text
284
+ 4. For large aggregations (e.g. "what apps did I use today?"), paginate with offset or suggest the user run raw SQL via \`curl -X POST http://localhost:3030/raw_sql\` for efficient GROUP BY queries
377
285
 
378
- ## Timeline Deep Links
379
- When showing search results to users, create clickable links to specific moments:
286
+ ## Deep Links (Clickable References)
287
+ When showing search results to users, create clickable links so they can jump to that exact moment.
380
288
 
381
- **Format:** \`[readable time](screenpipe://timeline?timestamp=ISO8601_TIMESTAMP)\`
289
+ **ALWAYS prefer frame-based links for OCR results** (frame IDs are exact DB keys):
290
+ - \`[10:30 AM — Chrome](screenpipe://frame/12345)\` — use \`content.frame_id\` from OCR results
382
291
 
383
- **Examples:**
384
- - \`[10:30 AM](screenpipe://timeline?timestamp=2024-01-15T18:30:00Z)\`
385
- - \`[yesterday at 3pm](screenpipe://timeline?timestamp=2024-01-14T15:00:00Z)\`
292
+ **Use timestamp links only for audio results** (which have no frame_id):
293
+ - \`[meeting at 3pm](screenpipe://timeline?timestamp=2024-01-15T15:00:00Z)\` — use exact \`timestamp\` from audio results
