Studio: global search and command palette #175
Description
Current State
The Asset Browser (#68) and Scene Tree (#69) each get a local filter. There is no single place to find an asset, a node, a setting or an editor command.
Tasks
- One search box (keyboard shortcut) across assets, scene nodes, components, project settings and menu commands
- Providers are pluggable, so Gaya plugins add their own result kinds
- Query filters (
t:texture,c:Light,ref:<asset>for "what uses this") and fuzzy matching - Results act in place: open, select, ping in the browser, run the command
Acceptance Criteria
- Typing part of an asset name and pressing Enter opens it; typing a command name runs it.

Gaya already has a command palette (
Workbench.Chrome.cs,CommandRegistry,Shortcuts.cs, covered byGayaChromeTests). This issue is therefore about extending it into the global quick search with pluggable result providers, not creating a palette. Guinevere #109 describes the same control from the toolkit side; implement the Gaya side here and add a reusable Guinevere control only if one is needed.
