Search playground

Run semantic retrieval against your crawl, read the results, and use Page Lens to inspect matches.

What it is

The search playground lets you query your crawl by meaning — like asking which pages actually answer a question. Your query is embedded on-device with the same model used for the crawl, then ranked against stored page and chunk vectors. Nothing is sent to the cloud for search, and no AI writes answers for you.

When it's available

Switch to Search from the view switcher in the title bar after embeddings finish. If a crawl has no embeddings yet, search will report that and return no results.

How ranking works

Each page ranks by its best-matching passage — the specific chunk that answers your query — not just page-level similarity. This mirrors how retrieval systems and LLMs with a vector index see your site.

Reading result cards

Strong matches stand out; weaker ones fade.

FieldMeaning
Title + pathPage identity, like a search result
PassageThe chunk that made the page rank
Match %How strongly the page answers your query
Chunk positionWhere on the page the match lives (e.g. 3/8)

Grid and table views

Toggle between a thumbnail grid and a table from the dock toolbar next to the search bar. Table view adds sortable columns including semantic group and optional per-fanout scores. The query palette stores recent searches for quick reuse.

Page Lens

Click a result card to open Page Lens. The left rail shows query variants, a chunk map, and similar pages on the site. The right side shows the full page content with the best-matching chunk highlighted and runner-up passages marked. Press back or Esc to return to results.

Switch query phrasing

When fan-outs are available, pick a variant pill to re-score highlights on the page against a different phrasing of your query. This lets you see how match regions move as the wording changes.

Attach to the agent

Drag a result card into the agent chat, or use @ to attach a page. The agent receives the page as crawl context for follow-up questions.

Compare workspace

Attach a competitor workspace to search both crawls in one merged result list, scored on the same scale. Results are labeled by site. Requires a paid plan and embeddings on both crawls.

Query fan-outs

On paid plans, Silkra generates alternate phrasings of your query and scores results against each one. Fan-out columns appear in table view so you can compare which wording surfaces different pages.
