Search the Canvas Notebook workspace with qmd. Use when the user asks to find files, search workspace content, or locate related notes/documents. Default to mode=search (BM25), use vsearch (vector) only as fallback, avoid query (hybrid) by default as it is expensive. Triggers: find files, search workspace, locate notes, Finde, suche, workspace search, content search, qmd.
Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.
What the file says
# Workspace Search (qmd)
Local workspace search for Canvas Notebook. Searches direct text files via `workspace-text` and derived document text such as DOCX extracts via `workspace-derived`.
## When to Use
Use this skill when the user requests:
- "Search my notes"
- "Find related documents"
- "Search my workspace"
- "Search for ... in my workspace"
- "Where is ..."
- "Finde ..."
## Default Behavior
- Use the PI tool contract: `qmd({ query, mode, limit, collection })`
- Prefer `mode=search` (BM25) - fast and safe as the default
- Use `mode=vsearch` only if keyword search fails and semantic similarity is needed
- Avoid `mode=query` unless it was explicitly enabled for this runtime or the user explicitly asks for the expensive path
## Parameters
- **query** (required): Search query
- **mode**: Search mode (search, vsearch, query). Default: search
- **collection**: Collection to search. Default: workspace-text + workspace-derived
- **limit**: Maximum number of results. Default: 10
## Search Modes
- `qmd search` (default): Fast keyword search (BM25)
- `qmd vsearch` (last resort): Semantic similarity (vector). Often slow due to local LLM before lookup.

How to install
mdr add canvascoding/canvas-notebook/qmd@sha256:03c18b9d96d65d1eThe line at the top of this page pins the label v1.0, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
