Omnibar & search

The omnibar is the search field at the top of the workspace. It handles search, navigation keywords, tags, operators, and full boolean queries.

Free text

Type a word or phrase to search across a note's title, body, tags, and headings (attachment file names are part of the body, so they match too). Search is accent- and case-insensitive, and results update as you type. Several words are combined with an implicit AND — every word must appear.

Operators

Operators take the form key:value. They combine with each other and with free-text terms.

Type

`is:note`	Plain notes only
`is:task`	Tasks only
`is:completed` / `is:done`	Tasks marked done
`is:uncompleted` / `is:open`	Tasks not yet done
`is:link` / `is:image`	Notes containing a link / an image
`is:text`	Plain notes with no link, image, or attachment

Typed on their own, is:today, is:upcoming, and is:agenda jump to the Home view, and is:tags opens the tags hub.

Has / no

`has:deadline` / `no:deadline`	Items with or without a deadline
`has:reminder` / `no:reminder`	Items with or without a reminder
`has:attachment` / `no:attachment`	Items that do (or don't) reference a file
`has:tags` / `no:tags`	Items with any tag / with none
`has:link` / `has:image`	Items containing a link / an image
`has:subtasks` / `has:open-subtasks`	Notes with nested tasks / with unfinished ones

Dates

There are two families of date operators, each with its own values.

Deadlines and reminders — deadline: (alias due:) and reminder: (alias scheduled:):

`deadline:today` / `deadline:tomorrow`	A specific day
`deadline:this week` / `deadline:next week`	This week (includes anything overdue) / next week
`deadline:overdue` / `deadline:past`	Past-due items
`deadline:none` / `deadline:any`	Missing or present
`deadline:2026-06-01`	Exact ISO date
`deadline:before:2026-06-01` / `deadline:after:2026-06-01`	Open-ended ISO range

Timestamps — created:, edited:, and completed: (using completed: implies a finished task):

`created:today` / `created:yesterday`	A specific day
`edited:this week` / `edited:last week`	Relative week (also `this month` / `last month`)
`completed:after:2026-06-01` / `completed:before:2026-06-01`	Open-ended ISO range

Bare before: and after: (no prefix) filter by the created date.

Location

`in:trash`	Include the trash
`in:title`	Match the following text in titles only

Boolean queries

Free-text search understands a small boolean grammar. As soon as a query contains OR, AND, NOT, or parentheses, it is parsed as an expression:

alpha beta — implicit AND (both words)
alpha OR beta — either word
NOT draft or -draft — exclude a word
"quarterly report" — an exact phrase
(alpha OR beta) NOT draft — grouped with parentheses

Precedence is NOT, then AND, then OR. Operators such as is:, #tag, and the date filters can appear anywhere inside the expression.

Combining

Operators stack. A few examples:

is:task #work deadline:tomorrow — work tasks due tomorrow
kickoff #projects/acme — text "kickoff" inside the Acme project
completed:today — tasks finished today
(#work OR #home) -draft — work or home notes, excluding "draft"

Saved searches

You can save a query and pin it to the sidebar. A saved search keeps its name, an optional reminder, and the view arrangement (grouping and sort) you had at the time; you can also give it tags to organise it.

Autocomplete

The omnibar autocompletes tags (#) with inline ghost text, and suggests operators as you type is:, in:, deadline:, reminder:, created:, edited:, or completed:. Use ↑ ↓ to pick a suggestion and Tab to accept.

`#work`	Notes with the `work` tag (or any nested child)
`#work/clients`	Notes in a specific subtag
`#wo*`	Tag prefix wildcard (at least two letters before `*`)
`-#work`	Exclude a tag
`#work OR #home`	Either tag
