smart-grep-extended

What problem does it solve?

It replaces noisy, token-heavy search workflows with a compact ripgrep-based approach that surfaces only the most relevant matches, helping you inspect large codebases without flooding context.

Core Features & Use Cases

• Token-efficient search: Uses structured rg --json output plus truncation and budgeting to keep results small and useful.
• Targeted code discovery: Helps you find functions, classes, imports, TODOs, and other patterns across Python, JavaScript, TypeScript, and similar source files.
• Practical workflow: First locate the exact file or symbol with smart search, then open only the most relevant file for deeper inspection.
• Use case: When you need to understand where authentication is handled in a large repository, this Skill narrows the search to the few lines that matter instead of returning broad grep output.

Quick Start

Use the smart-grep skill to search the repository for the pattern you care about and return only concise, token-budgeted matches.
