notoriouslab / vault-curate
Find, connect, rediscover your notes — a local-first second brain for Obsidian. Semantic search with strong Chinese/CJK, relation graphs and semantic paths for connections you never drew, Hot/Cold rediscovery of forgotten notes. Desktop builds the index; phones and tablets search it. No API keys.
Why this job: says: semantic search; topics: rag, embeddings, semantic-search, hybrid-search



What it does
- Cmd/Ctrl+P → Vault Curate. Semantic search (modal) for a quick jump; the sidebar Search tab for persistent results.
- Type it as written and it comes first. type a note's heading, the start of its title, or a sentence from it in double quotes ("like this"), and that note moves up to the top of the results; for a heading or a quoted sentence, the snippet sh
- Hot / Cold / All. search covers every note by default, forgotten ones included. The buttons under the search box narrow it to recently touched (Hot) or long-untouched (Cold) notes.
- Long notes are read in full. the built-in model reads every part of a long note (up to 60,000 characters), not just its opening, so a passage deep inside a note can be found by meaning too.
- Find similar notes. right-click any .md → VC: Find similar notes; results land in the sidebar and drag straight to Canvas. Similarity ranks content, not templates: markdown structure is stripped before comparison and the note's description
