## What's fixed

**Backend** — `swirl/views_helpers/search_rag.py` (`SearchRag.get_rag_result()`):
- The cache check now correctly treats an empty `rag_query_items` (the typical state of Galaxy's follow-up `GET /sapi/detail-search-rag/?search_id=…`) as 'no filter requested, serve whatever's stored' rather than 'items changed, regenerate'.

## Upgrading

⚠️ **No database migration required.** 4.5.0.5 is a drop-in replacement for 4.5.0.4 (and for any earlier 4.5.0.x).
