Previously, when using the st: filter expression in "Search in monitoring" (e.g. st:CRIT) and pressing Enter to open the results in the "Service search" view, the service state filter was missing from the filter sidebar. This made it unclear which state filter was active. Additionally, manually adding the "Service states" filter via "Add filter" showed default values instead of the currently applied ones.

The root cause was that the searchsvc view definition did not include the svcstate filter in its context, so the filter sidebar did not know to display it. The view now includes the service state filter, matching the behavior of the "All services" view.

Note: If you have cloned the "Service search" view, you need to manually add the "Service states" filter to your cloned view's context for it to appear in the filter sidebar.
