What's new in 2.8.0

Editor highlight on open, search stats, hover previews, and optional folder grouping — built on the persistent index from 2.7.3.

Editor highlight

Open a result and jump straight to the first query match — selected and scrolled into view in the editor.

Search stats

See N results in M notes · X ms in the modal header while you search.

Hover preview

Extended snippet context on row hover — tooltip plus a floating preview panel.

Folder grouping

Toggle folder headers in the results list when your vault is organized by directories.

Settings → Group results by folder

Persistent index

index-cache.json in the plugin folder — reload skips unchanged files (from 2.7.3).

Search profiles

Choose how the engine balances speed and precision: legacy, balanced, or max-quality.

Query examples

Built for how you think

Obsidian's built-in quick switcher finds file names. glyph-sO searches inside your notes.

Keyboard-first

Open search from the ribbon or assign a hotkey. Arrow keys navigate results; Enter opens the note at the matching snippet.

Layout & transliteration

Automatic EN↔RU keyboard layout fixes and rough Latin↔Cyrillic transliteration help when you type in the wrong layout.

Snippet previews

See the matching passage before you jump. Cached snippet generation keeps scrolling through results smooth.

Offline-first

Everything runs locally in your vault. Optional Ollama enrichment can expand queries when a local model is available.

Install

Copy the release zip into your vault's plugin folder and enable in Settings → Community plugins.
