What problem does it solve?

This Skill provides a safe way to search Windows-style file paths that contain spaces and backslashes, preventing ripgrep from misinterpreting sequences like nul.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Safe grep across Windows-style paths using Bash utilities
  • Supports path normalization with forward slashes
  • Fallback to find + grep when ripgrep is unavailable
  • Use Case: Scan codebases with mixed path formats and large directories for a keyword

Quick Start

bash safe-grep.sh 'polar_product_id' "/d/Projects/Vibe Code/isometricid/src"
