search_projects
Search the notavibe catalog of open-source projects. The query matches project name, project description, and the category, ecosystem, kind, runtime, license_family and capabilities vocabulary facets; free-form repository topics are not matched. capabilities names what a project does, such as http-client, logging or database. Its values come from a fixed list kept by this catalog, and a project carries one only when a tag mapped to it is declared on the project's GitHub repository, or on an npm package bound to that repository both ways: the repository's package.json names the npm package, and the package names the repository as its source. Most projects carry no capabilities. A facet match adds a project to the results and does not affect its position in them: results are ordered by how closely the query matches name and description, then by published health signals. Every word of the query must match. A project's description is generated from its facets until its maintainer claims it and writes their own, so a query describing what a project does, such as "http router" or "date parsing", matches only where those words appear in a project name, in a claimed description, or among the words a facet value matches; a project name or a category, kind or ecosystem word is what a generated entry reliably matches. The catalog currently covers one ecosystem: javascript-typescript. category, ecosystem, kind, runtime, license_family, topics and capabilities are also exact filters. Every filter supplied is applied, and a filter combines with the query rather than replacing it: query with ecosystem returns only projects that match the text AND carry that ecosystem. A filter narrows the result set and never changes the order. category, ecosystem, kind, runtime, license_family and capabilities accept only values from this catalog's managed vocabulary; a value outside it is refused and the refusal names the accepted values, so it is never returned as an empty result.
