Search reference

Chorus provides one global search across every kind of entity in your workspace. Open it from the search button in the sidebar, the header icon on mobile, or the Cmd+K (Ctrl+K) keyboard shortcut. This page describes what search covers and how results are bounded.

What is searchable

Search spans six entity types. Each type matches on its most identifying text fields:

Entity type	Fields matched
Task	Title, description
Idea	Title, content
Proposal	Title, description
Document	Title, content
Project	Name, description
Project Group	Name, description

Matching is a case-insensitive substring match: a query finds any entity whose searchable text contains it. Each result carries a short snippet showing the matched text in context, its status, and the project it belongs to. Results from all types are merged and ordered by most recently updated. You can also filter to a single type — Tasks, Ideas, Proposals, Documents, or Projects — to see more results for just that type.

How results are scoped

Search always runs within your workspace; results from other workspaces are never returned. It also returns only what you can access: private projects and groups you cannot see, and everything in them, are left out, even when you search for an exact ID. Within your workspace you can further narrow results to one of three scopes:

Scope	What it searches
Global	Every entity in the workspace.
Group	Every project in a specific Project Group.
Project	A single project.

Chorus picks a sensible default scope based on where you are. On the projects overview the default is Global; inside a Project Group it defaults to that group; inside a project it defaults to that project. You can switch scope at any time from the selector in the search header.

Selecting a result takes you to that entity’s detail page — the Task, Idea, Proposal, Document, a project’s dashboard, or a Project Group’s project list — so search doubles as fast navigation.
