📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

SearchBox.vue now calls useGlobalSearch with an explicit scope argument 'header'. The useGlobalSearch composable signature was changed to accept a place parameter ('header' | 'content', default 'content'), and its local-filter bypass conditional was refined to require place === 'content' in addition to the existing route-based check. No other public signatures were changed.

33-36: Fix is correct — one narrow edge case worth noting.

The revised condition correctly bypasses the local-filter short-circuit when place === 'header', which directly resolves the routing breakage on org/user pages.

One minor theoretical gap: isSameQuery (line 33) checks route.query.p === provider. On a local-filter page that somehow carries ?q=<term>&p=algolia in the URL, a header search for that exact term would hit the isSameQuery branch and silently skip navigation even though place === 'header'. In practice this is essentially unreachable (local-filter pages don't normally carry ?p=), but the intent could be made explicit:

🔍 Optional guard to fully close the edge case

-  const isSameQuery = route.query.q === value && route.query.p === provider
+  const isOnLocalFilterPage = pagesWithLocalFilter.has(route.name as string)
+  const isSameQuery = !isOnLocalFilterPage && route.query.q === value && route.query.p === provider
-  if ((pagesWithLocalFilter.has(route.name as string) && place === 'content') || isSameQuery) {
+  if ((isOnLocalFilterPage && place === 'content') || isSameQuery) {
