content_type=qaQ&A
Question-and-answer pages: one stated problem and one or more proposed solutions, with the answer structure visible in the page markup.
The content type that most closely matches how a debugging agent thinks. Pair it with `term` to pin an exact error code and you get the pages where that specific failure was actually solved.
Worth knowing that the accepted answer is not always the correct one, and the index does not adjudicate that. Pairing `qa` with a corroboration requirement, or with `docs` as a second query, is how a coding assistant avoids repeating a confidently upvoted mistake.

What is the qa content type?
Question-and-answer pages: one stated problem and one or more proposed solutions, with the answer structure visible in the page markup.
How do I search only q&a?
Set content_type[]=qa on any search request. Content type is assigned at index time from page structure and markup rather than guessed from the URL, so the filter is reliable.
When is the qa filter worth using?
Worth knowing that the accepted answer is not always the correct one, and the index does not adjudicate that. Pairing `qa` with a corroboration requirement, or with `docs` as a second query, is how a coding assistant avoids repeating a confidently upvoted mistake.
