Research direction

The issue names no file or test entry point. Search the bot code for the existing score-based dataframe sorting, then inspect how author and title fields are represented. Done means results sort by score, then author, then title, with existing behavior otherwise unchanged.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

enhancement

No reason to just sort by score. Should sort by score > author > title. Should be trivial to implement since we're already working with pandas dataframes.
