+### [2026-10-01] 移除文件页搜索过滤栏（顶栏统一入口）
+- **状态**: 已完成（`npm run check` 全绿：svelte-check 0 错 0 警 + eslint + stylelint + prettier；`vitest run` 492 通过 0 失败）
+- **计划**: 顶栏搜索框与筛选面板（`29d0c335`）已提供同一套筛选能力后，文件页自己的
+  `SearchFilterBar` 成为重复的第二个输入框，按用户决定移除。共享 store、URL 同步、
+  文件页的就地搜索模式**全部保留**——顶栏（搜索框 + 面板）现在是唯一的筛选写入方。
+- **移除后的能力分布**: 预设筛选（类型/大小/修改/创建/种类/递归）在顶栏面板改共享 store →
+  文件页就地过滤；关键词在顶栏搜索框提交 → 跳 `/search?q=…&in=<当前文件夹>`（范围跟随）；
+  `?q=` 深链仍直接在文件页水合生效。
+- **改动文件**:
+  - 删除（仅本地）: `frontend/src/lib/components/SearchFilterBar.svelte`
+  - `frontend/src/routes/files/[...path]/+page.svelte` — 删组件导入与挂载（`.files-filter-row`），
+    搜索模式/store/URL 同步不动；仅注释措辞更新（"SearchFilterBar dimension"→"filter dimension"）
+  - `frontend/src/routes/files/page.test.ts` — 4 个测试改为直接写共享 store 驱动（`resourceFilters.query = …`，
+    与顶栏同一写入路径），不再依赖已删除组件的 testid；beforeEach 补 `resetFilters()` + URL 复位防串扰
+  - `frontend/static/locales/*.json`（16 个）— 删孤儿 key `filter.placeholder`/`filter.keyword`/`filter.clear_keyword`
+    （其余 `filter.*` 被顶栏面板/FilterFields/FilterChips/文件页结果计数继续使用，保留）
+  - 注释清理: `filter.svelte.ts`、`FilterFields.svelte`、`AppShell.svelte`（2 处）去掉对已删组件的引用
+- **仅本地文件**: 无新增（`status.md` 本身）
+- **上游冲突风险**: 低 — 净效果是 -323 行；SearchFilterBar 本就是仅本地组件，删除后与上游的冲突面
+  比之前更小。locales 各文件仅 3 行删除。
+
 ### [2026-09-21] 顶栏搜索框 × 筛选栏合并（并补齐筛选维度）
 - **状态**: 已完成（commit `29d0c335`；`npm run check` 全绿：svelte-check 0 错 0 警 + eslint + stylelint + prettier；`vitest run` 492 通过 0 失败，连续两轮稳定）
 - **计划**: 把上游顶栏搜索框与本地 `SearchFilterBar` 合并成一套筛选能力：顶栏搜索框内加筛选按钮 + 下拉面板（不动 70px 高度）；文件页筛选栏保留，两处共享同一份筛选状态并同步到 URL（就地筛选行为不丢）；`/search` 改为 URL 驱动、移除三个页内 select（改为可撤销 chips）；同时补上后端已支持但前端未暴露的 `resource_types`（仅文件/仅文件夹）与创建时间维度。后端零改动。
