Description
Search-strategy is the query layer behind enterprise search. It takes a natural-language question and turns it into targeted searches for each connected source. For example, a question about when the team decided on an API migration timeline becomes a semantic search in chat for that phrase, a dated search in the engineering channel, a semantic search in the knowledge base, and a text search in the project tracker. The skill then merges the results, ranks them and removes duplicates, so you see one ordered list rather than a pile of partial hits from each system. Because it is written as the core logic of search, it is mainly a reference for how queries should be built and combined, and the search skill uses it when a question spans several tools. The skill is part of Anthropic's knowledge-work plugins, and its connector guide covers the tool each source needs.…
