Use Case
qmd Search is a powerful AI agent skill that extends your assistant with new capabilities. Fast local search for markdown files, notes, and docs using qmd CLI. Use instead of `find` for file discovery. Combines BM25 full-text search, vector semantic search, and LLM reranking—all running locally. Use when searching for files, finding code, locating documentation, or discovering content in indexed collections. This guide walks you through installing qmd Search, configuring it for your setup, and running your first commands — so you can start getting value in minutes.
