Search Architecture¶
Executive Summary¶
Search Architecture defines how Algosure supports searchable projections over domain records, documents, opportunities, suppliers, compliance evidence, contracts, marketplace content, and operational knowledge.
Why This Exists¶
Search is essential for procurement workflows and executive workspaces, but search indexes are projections. They must not become source systems or bypass tenant, organization, security, classification, and source-domain ownership.
Owner¶
The owner is the Chief Product Officer and Enterprise Architect.
Business Value¶
Search improves productivity, discovery, compliance readiness, tender matching, supplier sourcing, document retrieval, and customer experience.

Search Rules¶
| Rule | Requirement |
|---|---|
| Search index is a projection | Search data must be rebuildable from source Domains, events, or approved extracts. |
| Tenant isolation applies | Search results must be tenant and organization scoped. |
| Security trimming is mandatory | Results must honor authorization, permissions, entitlements, classification, and document access rules. |
| Source attribution is required | Search results must identify source Domain and source object reference. |
| Classification controls indexing | Sensitive documents and fields may be excluded, redacted, or restricted. |
| AIOS search is governed | AIOS may search only within task, tenant, organization, permission, and classification scope. |
