Global Search brings the content available in the current Ophel context into a single search field. Instead of switching between tabs to find a heading, conversation on the current AI platform, or saved prompt, you open one overlay and search from one place. Results are grouped by type, and selecting one jumps you directly to that item. Global Search overlay — search box with categorized results
Double Shift must be enabled in settings before it works. Unlike other shortcuts, it does not require the page to be focused, making it useful when you are interacting with another part of the browser.

Search scope

Global Search covers five result types: Results are grouped by type. Use the arrow keys to navigate up and down, press Enter to jump to the selected result, and press Esc to close the overlay.

Syntax filters

Add a key:value prefix to narrow results. Multiple filters can be combined with each other and with plain keywords.
Type tip: in the search box to switch into Feature Tips mode. This is not a syntax filter — it bypasses normal search and lists Ophel feature discovery tips instead.
You can combine filters with each other and with plain keywords. For example:
This finds conversations in the “work” folder that also have the “research” tag and whose title contains “model”. When fuzzy search is enabled, Ophel allows partial matches — searching rans finds translate. When it is off, only exact substring matches are returned. Toggle fuzzy search in Settings → Global Search.
Disable fuzzy search when you want precise results — for example, when searching for a specific variable name or a prompt title you know exactly.

Selecting a prompt result

When you press Enter on a prompt result, Ophel adapts to the context:
  • Smart insert (default) — if an AI input box is available on the current page, the prompt is inserted directly into it
  • Locate only — Ophel switches to the Prompts tab and highlights the entry, without inserting
Change this behavior in Settings → Global Search → Prompt Enter behavior.

Search tips

Type folder: followed by part of the folder name. You do not need to type the full name — partial matches work when fuzzy search is on.
Type tag: followed by the tag name.
Use is:pinned to see only pinned conversations, or is:unpinned to exclude them.
Use date:Nd to limit results to conversations or prompts updated within the last N days. For example, date:7d returns items from the past week.
Use level:n (0–6) to find outline nodes at a specific heading depth. Level 1 is an <h1>, level 2 is <h2>, and so on. Level 0 matches your own questions in the conversation.
Type a feature or setting name directly. For example, typing theme surfaces the Appearance settings entry; typing shortcut brings up the Shortcuts page.
Open Global Search while reading a conversation and type part of a heading. Selecting the result scrolls the conversation to that heading and highlights the matching outline entry.
