# Search

The setup page of a new organization, then the search of your store, with a summary that cites its sources.

Search is the home of the dashboard. It finds what you may read.

## The setup page

While your organization holds no memory and no note, Search is the setup page, with two ways in:

- **Import a vault**, for the notes you already keep. [Import a notes vault](https://mana.scalarmind.com/docs/notes-vault.md) gives the steps.
- A choice of agent. The page shows the shortest steps for the agent you choose.

The first note or memory turns the page into your search.

## Search the store

1. Open **Search**. Before you search, **Written this week** lists the newest memories you may read.
2. Type a question or a few words, and choose **Search**.
3. Read the matches, each with its kind and the day it was captured. Open one to read it in full.
4. Read the summary above the matches. A light model writes a short summary of those matches on every search. A number on each sentence points at its source.
5. For a fuller answer, choose your agent in the row **Ask your assistant about these**. A browser agent opens with your question and the keys of the matches. A terminal agent gets them as a copy.

When a check of the summary runs, a line under it says whether each sentence was checked against its sources. Before you rely on a sentence the check did not confirm, read its sources.

## What a summary costs

Each summary that reaches the model counts one model call against your plan. A stored summary of the same matches counts nothing. Your organization also has a daily limit of summaries.

Past that limit, the matches arrive with no summary. When the plan's model calls are used up, they also come in keyword order.

## The notice of a new prompt

When the connect prompt or a governed skill changed after an agent last connected, a notice on Search says so.

1. Choose **Copy the new prompt** on the notice.
2. Paste the prompt into that agent once.

With the Mana plugin, update the plugin instead, as [Claude Code](https://mana.scalarmind.com/docs/claude-code.md) says.
