# Filters

> Unified toolbar filters: dimensions, combinations, reset, and stacking with search

## Entry point

The **unified filter** menu on the Manage toolbar (and some list pages)—funnel icon; label follows the app.

Recommended workflow:

1. Pick a scope in the sidebar first (e.g. Untagged or a Smart Collection)
2. Narrow with filters
3. Use [batch multi-select](/manage-stars/batch-operations) when needed

Much faster than toggling filters on raw All Stars.

## Dimensions

| Dimension                 | Description                                      | More                                               |
| ------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------ | -------------------------------------------------- |
| **Status**                | unread / read / using                            | [Notes and status](/manage-stars/notes-and-status) |
| **Starred / not starred** | Top bar may also offer a quick toggle            | —                                                  |
| **Knowledge base**        | Ingested / not ingested                          | [Knowledge base](/knowledge-base/overview)         |
| **Language**              | Multi-select; pairs with “languages of interest” | [List preferences](/settings/list-preferences)     |
| **Tags**                  | Filter by tag                                    | [Tags](/manage-stars/tags)                         |
| **Wiki**                  | Repos with Wiki signals                          | Wiki entry on detail                               |
| **Health**                | Repos with cached health scores                  | [Repo Health](/main-interface/repo-health)         |
| **OpenSSF**               | Repos with cached security scores                | Same as above                                      |
| **Hide archived**         | Exclude archived                                 | —                                                  |
| **Hide fork**             | Exclude forks                                    | —                                                  |

Not every page exposes every dimension; Explore lists may offer fewer or different filters.

## Combination logic

Multiple conditions are usually **AND**.

Example:

> Language = Swift **and** status = using **and** not ingested

Good for finding “Swift projects I’m actively using but haven’t added to the knowledge base yet.”

## Stacking with search

| Layer            | Role                          |
| ---------------- | ----------------------------- |
| Sidebar category | Broadest scope                |
| Filters          | Structured constraints        |
| List search (⌘F) | Keyword / semantic refinement |

When all three apply, remember the current list is already a filtered subset. See [List search](/search/global-search).

## Reset and persistence

* **Reset** at the bottom of the menu clears current filters
* Conditions often persist per module: switch to “Tag A” then back to All Stars and each may restore its last state
* If behavior seems wrong: [General settings](/settings/general) → reset list preferences
