This skill solves the limitation of traditional text-based search tools like grep or ripgrep when dealing with complex code structures, allowing you to perform precise, syntax-aware searches and rewrites across 25 programming languages.
Use the ast-grep skill to search for all console.log calls in the current typescript project.

AST-aware code search matches code based on its structural shape, such as function calls or class definitions, rather than raw text bytes. This syntax-aware approach targets complex code patterns across 25 programming languages precisely.
Deterministic codemods perform structural refactoring to safely rewrite code patterns across a repository, such as migrating require calls to imports or renaming function parameters. Offline pattern validation ensures structural integrity during mutations.
Traditional text-based search tools like grep or ripgrep have limitations with complex code structures. AST-aware search overcomes this by matching the structural shape of import statements rather than just text bytes.
Yes, performing AST-aware code search and structural refactoring requires a valid ast-grep binary installed in your environment. The skill uses this binary to analyze code structures and provide offline pattern validation.
Yes, AST-aware code search and structural refactoring support 25 programming languages. You can target complex code patterns and execute deterministic codemods across multiple language syntaxes within your repository.
Offline pattern validation catches regex-misuse errors and language-specific syntax traps before executing any changes. This ensures structural integrity and prevents invalid code mutations during refactoring.
