Edit file contents precisely using sd (Rust-based replacement) or the native Edit tool.
Use chisel to perform precise file edits by preferring sd for regex-based replacements and Edit for exact, context-bound changes.
High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.
To perform precise multi-file edits, use sd for regex-based pattern replacements. Chisel defaults to sd for broad changes and supports a safety-first workflow with previews before applying updates.
Use native Edit for single-file code editing when surrounding context must be matched exactly. sd is preferred for multi-file pattern replacements, but Edit provides strict precision for localized changes.
Yes, you can preview multi-file changes. Chisel supports a safety-first workflow that provides previews for pattern replacements before they are committed across your files.
The best way to match exact context is using the native Edit tool. It targets a single file and ensures surrounding context is matched exactly for precise, context-bound modifications.
Yes, sd is required for multi-file pattern replacements. Chisel uses sd as the default Rust-based replacement tool, while falling back to native Edit for exact single-file modifications.
