OK. Based on this example https://emacs.stackexchange.com/questions/74547/completing-read-search-also-in-annotations I came up with this snippet below: (completing-read "Summary: " (lambda (s pred flag) (pcase flag ('t (all-completions s (mapcar #'car org-columns-summary-types-default) pred)) ('metadata (list 'metadata (cons 'annotation-function (lambda (c) (first-line-docstring (cdr (assoc c org-columns-summary-types-default)))))))))) Thank you for the feedback.
