Fortrikka It is more complicated then that... You have to actually first search something on the website for it to be remembered.. then there is manage websites setting where you can see them etc, at minimum. We are looking for full specification of the feature as it is not trivial. You can pick a browser which has implemented it the best and suggest that workflow.
Vlad I am guessing Chrome for the user interface, and Safari for the implementation. It is Safari because it provides the option to manually delete the auto search input fields which are automatically created in the menu bar. Automatic is better because it fits the philosophy of "Don't think about it."
Essentially, what needs to be added is just the search bar, and the recently closed.
Vlad I know, but here is the concept: Every website that has a search input field which was placed into the history area which can be found by simply doing a search function with %s or whichever identifier search input fields use to input into the address bar, you simply make every single one of these queries be able to be automatically searched without having to go to the website first. For example, if you type "kagi, tab, then Orion browser", you will search for "Oriokn browser" on kagi. This is also available on Chrome and Firefox as well.
Please note that the right arrow with a line before it is the "tab" key in the video. Please pause at moments in the video if you still do not understand it.
Since this is on Firefox, you may look into taking some inspiration from the code of Firefox's search bar and how it auto completes websites.
Please note that this specific "auto adding" is not yet added. Yes, there exists the option to add custom search engines, but that is not the same as Safari just simply automatically adding all search input fields into the history to be navigated, or even adding input fields as an option to be bookmarked. None of these two options have yet been added.
I would appreciate the adding of two of these functions, but if not enough time then the latter would be appreciable for a while, but Safari's auto search feature is still a nice feature to have for more parity with Safari.
I was not. Asking for clarification what is the exact ask?
comparing the flow for orion, chrome, and safari:
suppose we want to create a way to quickly search DuckDuckGo
steps
duckduckgo your query, and it shows up in Top Hitsvideo:

Chrome already knows duckduckgo is a search engine. if it didn't it would only require a search to get it automatically saved, as chrome also seems to detect ?q= to be search
video:
##safari
steps:
steps
?q= in the URL and automagically puts it in Quick Website Searchduckduckgo your query under Search duckduckgo.comvideo
Orion should automatically detect when something is a search, and automatically save that information somewhere (idk where)
additionally, it should make it more obvious that this is using a custom search by putting it in the heading "Search" or "Custom Search" rather than "Top Hits"
This may be related to detecting OpenSearch metadata. MDN has a guide on using OpenSearch so that Firefox can detect 3rd-party search fields.
