Search

Ranked recommendations from structured capability data.

Not training-data recall — a search across machine-readable capability manifests, returned ranked with integration effort and a one-line solves.

Starlog searches a corpus of structured capability manifests generated by an LLM reading each library's source and docs — not scraped from READMEs. Results are returned ranked, each with a one-line solves and an integration-effort label.
