weir_queryCatalog

Faceted INTERSECTION query over the catalog — the Ranganathan move: find interdisciplinary material by intersecting facets instead of one shelf or keyword. Pass `facets`, a map of facet → term(s): within a facet the terms UNION, across facets they INTERSECT — e.g. { domain:["geostatistics"], entity:["kriging","itabirite"], process:["estimation"] } = (geostatistics) AND (kriging OR itabirite) AND (estimation). Facets: domain, entity, process, method, scale, spatial, stance, form, provenance, temporal (weir_listFacets shows live terms). Terms resolve against the controlled vocabulary (a synonym → its preferred term); unknown or zero-hit terms come back in `vocabularyNotes` instead of silently missing. Optional `q` ANDs a ranked full-text constraint (composes with weir_search). Finds what excerpt/substring search cannot — e.g. entity:"itabirite" hits a cataloged item even when the word is not in its title. Read-only. Returns { count, total, items:[{ …, glass_id?, facets, matchedTerms }], vocabularyNotes? }.
