Bug Description

When searching for a unique token in the Project Knowledge search bar, the results include unrelated documents that do not contain the searched text.

This indicates the search is not filtering documents strictly based on content or metadata.

Steps to Reproduce

1. Upload multiple documents to the knowledge base.
   One document contains a unique token:
   OPENSEARCH-7419-ZX
2. Navigate to:
   Knowledge → Project Knowledge
   Enter the unique token in the search bar:

OPENSEARCH-7419-ZX

Expected Behavior

Only documents containing the searched token should appear.

Example:

OpenRAG Index Test Document.txt

Actual Behavior

The search results display multiple unrelated documents such as:

rag_intro.pdf
ai_concepts.xlsx
rag_notes.csv
nlp.html
ai_overview.md
docling_info.adoc

These files do not contain the searched token.
