- searchLegacyArticles() default limit: 50 → 5000. /search page
explicitly passes 5000 too. ilike on title/excerpt/author is fast
enough on the 29k-row archive that returning everything is fine.
- New API route /api/search/suggest?q=...&limit=8 returns the top
matching article titles + category + slug, with a 30-second CDN
cache + 60-second stale-while-revalidate.
- The search input in the Browse bar now debounces (150ms) and
fires that API per keystroke once 2+ chars are typed. Matches
appear in a styled dropdown below the input — click to navigate
directly to /news/<slug>, or press Enter to fall through to the
full /search page. "See all results for …" link in the dropdown
footer.
- Keyboard: Escape closes the dropdown; aria-autocomplete + role
listbox/option for accessibility.
