# Approving Similar Questions

> Use similarity search to find and reuse answers from related questions.

When reviewing Q\&A items, Daedaline automatically searches for **semantically similar questions** that have already been answered elsewhere in the project. This lets you quickly reuse or adapt existing answers rather than drafting a response from scratch.

## How similarity search works

When you open a Q\&A item in the detail panel, Daedaline runs a similarity search in the background. It looks for other questions in the project that are semantically close to the current one and already have answers.

Results appear in the **Similar Questions** panel within the detail view. The search excludes the current item and only surfaces questions that have been answered.

## Reviewing similar questions

Each result in the Similar Questions panel shows:

* The **question text** (truncated if long — hover to see the full text in a tooltip)
* An **answer preview** (truncated — hover to see the full answer)
* Two hover actions:
  * **Open question** — navigates to that Q\&A item so you can review it in full
  * **Copy answer** — copies the answer text to your clipboard with a confirmation notification

## Using a similar answer

If an existing answer closely matches what you need:

1. Hover over the similar question result.
2. Click **Copy answer**.
3. Open the edit mode for the current Q\&A item.
4. Paste the copied answer and adjust it as needed.
5. Save your changes.

## When no similar questions are found

If no sufficiently similar answered questions exist, the Similar Questions panel displays an empty state: "No similar questions found." This means the current question is distinct from all others in the project and will need an original answer.

<Tip>
  As more questions are answered over time, the similarity search becomes increasingly useful — earlier answers inform later ones, reducing duplicated effort across a Q\&A process.
