What problem does it solve?

This Skill addresses the challenge of inefficiently searching through large volumes of local Markdown documentation and notes, leading to wasted time and token consumption.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Efficient Exploration: Quickly find relevant files and information before reading them, drastically reducing token usage.
  • Hybrid Search: Combines fast keyword (BM25) and semantic similarity search for comprehensive results.
  • Use Case: When exploring a new codebase, use qmd search to pinpoint files related to "authentication" instead of reading every file in the src/auth directory.

Quick Start

Use qmd search to find files related to authentication.
