# Issue #66: [KNOW-014] Search API Endpoint

## Objective

Implement a full-text search API endpoint for the knowledge module with ranking, highlighting, filtering, and pagination capabilities.

## Acceptance Criteria

1. ✅ Create GET /api/knowledge/search?q=... endpoint
2. ✅ Return ranked results with snippets
3. ✅ Highlight matching terms in results
4. ✅ Add filter by tags and status
5. ✅ Implement pagination
6. ✅ Ensure response time < 200ms

## Approach

1. Review existing knowledge module structure (controller, service, entities)
2. Review full-text search setup from issue #65
3. Write tests first (TDD - RED phase)
4. Implement minimal code to pass tests (GREEN phase)
5. Refactor and optimize (REFACTOR phase)
6. Performance testing
7. Quality gates and code review

## Current State Analysis

The search endpoint already exists with most features implemented:

- ✅ GET /api/knowledge/search endpoint exists
- ✅ Full-text search with ts_rank for ranking
- ✅ Snippet generation with ts_headline
- ✅ Term highlighting with <mark> tags
- ✅ Status filter implemented
- ✅ Pagination implemented
- ⚠️ Tag filtering NOT implemented in main search endpoint
- ❓ Performance not tested

**Gap:** The main search endpoint doesn't support filtering by tags. There's a separate endpoint `/by-tags` that only does tag filtering without text search.

**Solution:** Add `tags` parameter to SearchQueryDto and modify the search service to combine full-text search with tag filtering.

## Progress

- [x] Review existing code structure
- [x] Write failing tests for tag filter in search endpoint (TDD - RED)
- [x] Update SearchQueryDto to include tags parameter
- [x] Implement tag filtering in search service (TDD - GREEN)
- [x] Refactor and optimize (TDD - REFACTOR)
- [x] Run all tests - 25 tests pass (16 service + 9 controller)
- [x] TypeScript type checking passes
- [x] Linting passes (fixed non-null assertion)
- [ ] Performance testing (< 200ms)
- [ ] Code review
- [ ] QA checks
- [ ] Commit changes

## Testing

- Unit tests for service methods
- Integration tests for controller endpoint
- Performance tests for response time
- Target: 85%+ coverage

## Notes

- Use PostgreSQL full-text search from issue #65
- Follow NestJS conventions
- Use existing DTOs and entities
- Ensure type safety (no explicit any)
