Why ask your text instead of searching it
A question finds the part you mean, even when you only remember the idea.
Ask in your own words
Describe what you need and the answer points to the right passage, whatever wording the text uses.
Follow-up questions
Ask what happens in a special case or who a rule applies to, and the chat keeps the earlier answer in view.
A project you can reopen
Your text stays in the project, ready for the next question.
Asking a question compared with searching
