Summary

Perform a full-text search across all Markdown (.md) files stored in the key-value storage, filtering results by directory and tag, and returning matching records sorted by relevance.

• Directory Filter — Optional glob pattern to restrict which directories to search; leave empty to search all directories.
• Tag Filter — Optional filter to only search files whose frontmatter tags contain this value; leave empty to search all.
• Limit — Maximum number of results to return, between 1 and 100; defaults to 50.
• Include Snippets — Boolean flag to include a context snippet around the first match in each search result; defaults to true.
