Weight Tuning

{ "semanticWeight": 1.5, "fullTextWeight": 0.5 }For Exact Terms
Increase full-text weight:
{ "semanticWeight": 0.5, "fullTextWeight": 1.5 }Query Tips
Be Specific
Instead of: "meeting notes" Try: "Q4 planning meeting notes about budget"
Use Natural Language
Instead of: "authentication config" Try: "how do I configure user authentication"
Add Context
Instead of: "error handling" Try: "error handling patterns in the payment service"
Using Tags
Organize with consistent tags:
- Source:
email,notes,docs - Topic:
project-x,finance,technical - Status:
archived,active,reference
Then filter searches:
{
"query": "budget updates",
"tags": ["project-x", "finance"]
}Score Interpretation

| 0.8 - 1.0 | Highly relevant |
| 0.6 - 0.8 | Good match |
| 0.4 - 0.6 | Related content |
| < 0.4 | Weak match |
If scores are low, try rephrasing or broadening your query.
