foxctl Search

What problem does it solve?

You need to quickly locate relevant code, files, and symbols in a large repository without manually grepping or searching through irrelevant results.

Core Features & Use Cases

• High-performance pattern search using ripgrep and grep-style skills to scan for regex matches across your workspace.
• File discovery to find specific filenames or glob patterns (e.g., tests) without opening directories.
• Context-aware searching to expand around matches (including function expansion) so you can understand intent, not just line hits.

Quick Start

Run a search for a regex across Go code and include a few surrounding lines of context: foxctl run text/ripgrep --input '{"pattern":"func.*Handler","path":".","file_type":"go","context_lines":3}'.
