Search Box Has No EffectWhite Belt
+10 Ki
Description

The list never updates regardless of what is typed - the full set of items stays visible after every keystroke.

Anomaly

Type any character into the search box - the list does not update. All six items remain visible regardless of what you type. The input field updates correctly but the results list is permanently frozen at the initial unfiltered state.

Constraint
Do not replace useEffect with inline filtering
Hint

The effect runs - but ask yourself when it runs.

Why this fixes it

The effect closed over query at the time it was first created - with an empty dependency array, React never re-ran it, so the filter logic permanently operated on the empty string captured at mount. Adding query to the dependency array tells React to re-execute the effect whenever query changes, so the closure always captures the current search string. Each keystroke triggers a fresh filter pass and setResults updates the list accordingly.
