Description

The command palette (PaletteSearch.swift) matches only by command/agent/backend name (PaletteItemKind) — there's no way to search the actual content an agent has produced.

Proposal: extend the palette (or add a dedicated search surface) to full-text search pane scrollback, so "which agent printed this error" is answerable without visiting every pane.

Research direction

Start with PaletteSearch.swift and the PaletteItemKind matching logic to understand the current command-palette search boundary. Then trace how pane scrollback is represented and decide whether the search belongs in the palette or a dedicated surface. Done means users can search agent output and identify which agent produced a matching result.
