 ## Changelog Entries
 
+### 2025-12-28 - Phase 2B SearchService Implementation
+
+#### Entry #018 - 2025-12-28 15:30
+- **Action Type**: CREATE
+- **Component**: SearchService (Issue #14)
+- **Description**: Implemented comprehensive SearchService for semantic document search functionality with ChromaDB integration
+- **Files Changed**:
+  - `src/search/__init__.py` (NEW) - Search module initialization
+  - `src/search/search_service.py` (NEW) - Core SearchService implementation
+  - `tests/test_search/__init__.py` (NEW) - Test module initialization
+  - `tests/test_search/test_search_service.py` (NEW) - Comprehensive test suite with 12 test cases
+- **Implementation Details**:
+  - **Core Features**: Semantic search with text embeddings and vector similarity
+  - **API**: `search(query, top_k=5, threshold=0.0)` method with configurable parameters
+  - **Integration**: Uses existing VectorDatabase and EmbeddingService components
+  - **Result Format**: Standardized output with chunk_id, content, similarity_score, metadata
+  - **Error Handling**: Comprehensive validation and error reporting
+  - **Filtering**: Similarity threshold filtering and top-k result limiting
+- **Test Coverage**:
+  - ✅ 12/12 tests passing (100% success rate)
+  - Unit tests with mocked dependencies (8 tests)
+  - Integration tests with real embeddings (4 tests)
+  - Error handling and edge cases validation
+  - Performance parameter testing (top_k, threshold)
+- **Quality Assurance**:
+  - ✅ Black formatting compliance
+  - ✅ Isort import organization
+  - ✅ Flake8 linting standards
+  - ✅ Type hints and comprehensive documentation
+- **Performance**:
+  - Embedding generation: 384-dimensional vectors
+  - Search latency: ~5-8 seconds for integration tests (includes model loading)
+  - Memory efficient with streaming results processing
+- **Dependencies**:
+  - ChromaDB 0.4.15 for vector storage and similarity search
+  - Sentence-transformers 2.7.0 for text embeddings
+  - Integration with existing VectorDatabase and EmbeddingService
+- **CI/CD**: ✅ All local format and lint checks pass
+- **Notes**:
+  - Uses TDD approach - tests written first, then implementation
+  - Fully compatible with existing Phase 2A infrastructure
+  - Ready for Flask API integration (Issue #16)
+  - Addresses GitHub Issue #14 requirements completely
