Search
One query across the whole codex — items, monsters, skills, spells, perks, emotes, quests, maps, merchants, religions, classes, and containers. This is the endpoint behind the site's Ctrl K search.
GET /v2/search
The query is normalized to slug form (lowercase, separators → underscores) and matched as a substring per section; exact-prefix matches sort first. Matching runs against both canonical id slugs and localized display names (folded to slug shape) — so artifact names like illusory and quest titles like alchemist resolve even when the id doesn't contain the term. Results come back as one flat list:
{ type, id, name, subtitle } — items and monsters collapse to one row per archetype (the id is the archetype id); containers also carry their display slug. Item subtitles are the representative rarity; monsters their class; quests their giver.
