codebase-search

What problem does it solve?

This Skill eliminates the tedious manual work of exploring unfamiliar or complex codebases. It quickly identifies relevant files, patterns, and dependencies, preventing wasted time and ensuring you start coding with a clear understanding.

Core Features & Use Cases

• Parallel Codebase Search: Launches multiple specialized agents to simultaneously search different domains of your internal codebase (e.g., components, services, tests, documentation).
• Consolidated Findings: Gathers all search results into a single, structured report (workflow/tmp/scout-results.md) detailing files to modify, files to create, existing patterns, and critical dependencies.
• Use Case: When tasked with adding a new feature to a large application, use this skill to quickly understand where existing authentication logic resides, what patterns are used for data models, and which test files need updates, all before writing a single line of code.

Quick Start

Use the codebase-search skill to find all implementations of 'user authentication' in the project, focusing on API routes and database models.
