SolicitIndex: A Local Search Engine for Solicitation Packages
A browser-local tool for indexing solicitation files, searching their contents, and exporting format-aware citations.
Field notes
The sample workflow exposes the kind of references the tool produces: PDF page numbers, spreadsheet cell addresses, and text-file line numbers rather than a generic list of matches. Its browser boundary is unusually explicit, with parsing, hashing, indexing, searching, and CSV generation described as local operations. The page also names practical exclusions—no OCR, nested archives, or legacy Office files—so the tool’s current operating envelope is easy to understand.
