Full-text search across 8198 compiled nodes. No LLM — instant, deterministic. Type a term for live results (requires JS). The full corpus is also reachable as flat static pages — every node has its own URL under /docs/, /api/, /rbac/, and /relationships/.
Live search box requires JavaScript (the full index above is readable without it).
