How Search Works

The AI clip selector uses semantic search with query expansion:

1. Your intent ("Picard smiling") is expanded into multiple search groups:
   • Primary: smile, grin, beam (weight: 1.0)
   • Secondary: laugh, chuckle, amused (weight: 0.8)
   • Tertiary: warm, gentle, happy (weight: 0.6)
2. Each group runs an FTS5 search on the shots table
3. Results are scored and merged — shots matching more groups rank higher
4. Deduplication ensures each moment appears once
