## Search Examples

```
# Search by project name
/my-project

# Search by model
/opus

# Search by message content
/implement feature
```

## Requirements

ccboard must be installed. Run `/ccboard-install` if needed.

## Implementation

```bash
#!/bin/bash

# Check if ccboard is installed
if ! command -v ccboard &> /dev/null; then
    echo "❌ ccboard is not installed"
    echo "Run: /ccboard-install"
    exit 1
fi

# Launch ccboard with Sessions tab (tab index 1, accessible with '2' key)
# For now, launch and user presses '2'
exec ccboard
```

**Note**: Currently launches ccboard in dashboard view. Press `2` to access Sessions tab.
Future version will support `ccboard --tab sessions` for direct access.
