## Search

Use `skilld search` instead of grepping `.skilld/` directories — hybrid semantic + keyword search across all indexed docs, issues, and releases. If `skilld` is unavailable, use `npx -y skilld search`.

```bash
skilld search "query" -p cheerio
skilld search "issues:error handling" -p cheerio
skilld search "releases:deprecated" -p cheerio
```

Filters: `docs:`, `issues:`, `releases:` prefix narrows by source type.
