Select with live() and searchable()

Hi all, I am trying to make a double select (depending on relation) that is searchable. First of all I made a new component with artisan make:form-field to create a re-usable component. This component has the following schema, pretty much following the documentation

$this->schema([
    Select::make('category')
        ->options(Category::query()->whereNull('parent_id')->get()->pluck('label', 'id'))
        ->live(),

    Select::make('sub_category')
        ->searchable()
        ->options(function (Get $get) {
            $valueToSearchFor = $get('category');
            if (blank($valueToSearchFor)) {
                return [];
            }

            return Category::query()
                ->where('parent_id', $get('_stabu_selector'))
                ->get()->pluck('label', 'id');
        })
]);

$this->schema([
    Select::make('category')
        ->options(Category::query()->whereNull('parent_id')->get()->pluck('label', 'id'))
        ->live(),

    Select::make('sub_category')
        ->searchable()
        ->options(function (Get $get) {
            $valueToSearchFor = $get('category');
            if (blank($valueToSearchFor)) {
                return [];
            }

            return Category::query()
                ->where('parent_id', $get('_stabu_selector'))
                ->get()->pluck('label', 'id');
        })
]);

However if I add ->searchable() to the first select it appears to stop working. The 2nd dropdown isn't populated according to the query (just stays empty) There is no error message really.

I have a feeling that it might be because the category is not actually a field in my model's data properties?

$get('_stabu_selector')) shouldn't be $valueToSearchFor ?

Yeah it is, I was just trying to make it more clear by removing domain code 😉 Updated my code above Either way, $valueToSearchFor is always null so I think that is because it isnt actually a property on my model category isnt actually a field in this case its just a "helper" field to make searching for the final category in sub_category easier Hmm, the issue might be circumvented. I need that selector in a repeater and then it works
