A query is a live document query: which spaces and paths to include, how to sort, and an optional result limit. It is stored in a query block's attributes, and it is also the input of the Query API.

includes is a list of inclusions, each a space, an optional path prefix and a mode of Children or AllDescendants. sort is a list of sort terms, and the daemon applies the first. limit caps the result. The same object is the payload of a query block and of the Seed API's Query and QueryBlock requests, which return each matching document's info and metadata. Attribute filters live elsewhere: in the QueryDocuments request and the Explore grammar, described in the query grammar.
