search (Desktop global search)

Shared front door: load ../olares-shared/SKILL.md for suite routing, active-profile selection, platform entry points, and the auth proceed/stop gate. Load its auth reference only when login, profile switching, token storage, or auth recovery is actually needed.

Use olares-cli search <subcommand> --help for syntax.

When to use

• Find a file or knowledge item by name/content across Drive, Sync, Google Drive, Dropbox, or Wise. One search drive covers all four file sources on Olares 1.12.7+.
• Find an installed application by visible title.

Mental model: search drive / search sync / search knowledge answer "which file CONTAINS this text" by querying the pre-built per-user index. search app answers "which installed app matches this name". It is not lifecycle inventory (market list --mine / market status) or resource ranking (dashboard applications). To LIST or READ a known path, use olares-files (files ls / files cat / files download).
