Network use

This plugin is desktop only and may contact external APIs only when you configure API keys.

Vector search (embeddings) — requests go to the embeddings URL you set (the default https://api.aicso.top/v1/embeddings is an example endpoint; replace it with your own provider). Each request may include truncated note text for indexing or your search query for retrieval. Uses a separate API key from AI chat.

AI chat — when AI enhancement is enabled, requests go to the chat Base URL you configure (default example: https://api.aicso.top/). Sent content is limited to your search query plus paths and truncated snippets of the top N hits — not full note bodies.

With AI and vector search disabled, or without API keys configured, the plugin performs local indexing and search only.
