SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This Skill helps software teams quickly locate relevant code in a repository by combining fast targeted searches with deeper analysis when needed.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Targeted Search: Use Grep and Glob patterns to rapidly identify candidate files based on issue keywords, file paths, and function names.
  • Deep Analysis: Escalate to comprehensive code understanding when targeted search yields insufficient results.
  • Use Case: Given keywords from an issue, locate the most relevant code snippets and files to review changes or write tests.

Quick Start

Use lib/code-explorer to find code related to [keywords]

FAQPage Schema
How do I locate relevant code in a repository using issue keywords?

To locate relevant code using issue keywords, you can use a hybrid search approach. It starts with fast targeted Grep and Glob pattern queries to identify candidate files, then escalates to deeper analysis if needed.

What is the best way to find code snippets for writing tests from an issue description?

The best way to find code snippets from an issue description is a hybrid code search. It uses provided keywords, file paths, and function names to guide searches across repository files and read high-relevance files for planning.

How does hybrid code search work for issue triage?

Hybrid code search works for issue triage by applying fast targeted queries first, then escalating to comprehensive code understanding. It relies on Grep and Glob patterns to find candidate files and reads structured readouts.

Can I use Grep and Glob patterns to search across repository files?

Yes, you can use Grep and Glob patterns to rapidly identify candidate files across repository files. This targeted search mechanism helps locate specific code based on issue keywords, file paths, and function names.

When do I need to escalate from a targeted search to deeper code analysis?

You need to escalate to deeper code analysis when targeted search yields insufficient results. This ensures comprehensive code understanding to inform planning and fixes for complex issues that fast searches cannot resolve.

Does code-explorer require specific dependencies to perform code searches?

No, code-explorer does not require specific dependencies to perform code searches. It relies entirely on standard Grep and Glob patterns for fast searches and structured readouts of high-relevance files for deeper analysis.
