They are meant to be matched > while creating agenda only. No. They are used when the agenda is created, and they are stored in a text property on the entry. If you press "T", you should see all the tags of an entry. I just tested it, and it works fine, including filtering, which acts on the text-property tags, not only on the displayed tags. Maybe you have turned off tag inheritance? Because file tags are *inherited* by all entries in the buffer.
