@cristipaval looks like a solid external to me.

Hey @laurenreidexpensify, yes, I had a glance locally on my machine and seems that the search is performed on the client, no api call. We can mark it as external.

Current assignee @laurenreidexpensify is eligible for the External assigner, not assigning anyone new.
