SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve? Finding a specific AI CLI client in a large catalog is slow when you only remember part of its name, vendor, or type. This Skill lets you run a free-text search against the catalog master table so natural search or find requests return matching entries immediately. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Free-Text Search: Matches your query against id, display_name, aliases, vendor, and type fields in the catalog. - Optional Filters: Narrow results by type, vendor, or category, and control output size with limit and format with table or json. - Alias of list-catalog: Forwards all parameters to list-catalog with a default limit of 20, so search-style invocations work naturally. - Use Case: You remember a tool called "Warp Terminal" but not its exact catalog entry. Run a search with that query and get the matching catalog row in a formatted table. ## Quick Start Search the catalog for entries matching "Warp Terminal" and show the results as a table.

FAQPage Schema
How do I search the AI CLI client catalog by name?▼

Pass a free-text query such as a tool name or vendor to the search skill. It matches the query against id, display_name, aliases, vendor, and type fields, then returns up to 20 matching rows in a table by default.

What is the difference between search-catalog and list-catalog?▼

search-catalog is an alias of list-catalog kept for discoverability so search and find phrasings work naturally. It forwards all parameters to list-catalog with a default limit of 20, so prefer list-catalog for explicit filters, limits, and sorting.

Can I filter catalog search results by vendor or type?▼

Yes, the search accepts optional type, vendor, and category filters alongside the free-text query. You can also set a limit on returned rows and choose table or JSON as the output format.

What output formats does the catalog search support?▼

The search supports two output formats controlled by the format parameter: table for human-readable display and json for structured data. The default behavior returns a formatted table of up to 20 matching catalog entries.

Why does my catalog search return no results?▼

No results usually means the query does not match any id, display_name, alias, vendor, or type value in the master table. Try a shorter or partial term, remove restrictive filters, or check spelling of the tool or vendor name.
