mgrep-code-search
From the author
Semantic code search using mgrep for efficient codebase exploration. This skill should be used when searching or exploring codebases with more than 30 non-gitignored files and/or nested directory structures. It provides natural language semantic search that complements traditional grep/ripgrep for finding features, understanding intent, and exploring unfamiliar code.

- exploring-codebasestmcfarlane/team-avatarSemantic search for codebases. Locates matches with ripgrep and expands them into full AST nodes (functions/classes) using tree-sitter or pre-generated _MAP.md files. Returns complete, syntactically valid code blocks rather than fragmented lines. Use when looking for specific implementations, examples, or references where full context is needed.Planning★ 110
- codebase-searchtmcfarlane/team-avatarSearch and navigate large codebases efficiently. Use when finding specific code patterns, tracing function calls, understanding code structure, or locating bugs. Handles semantic search, grep patterns, AST analysis.Planning★ 110
- semantic-grepoaustegard/claude-skillsIn-process semantic search over text files or in-memory strings, using Gemini embeddings via the CF AI Gateway. Use when user wants fuzzy/conceptual search where exact-keyword grep would miss — "sessions discussing regulatory constraints", "code about retry logic", "notes mentioning burnout even if the word isn't there". Complements searching-codebases (regex/AST) and extracting-keywords (YAKE). Do NOT use when an exact string/regex match is what's wanted — grep/rg wins on speed and precision there.Legal★ 154
- ast-grepcode-yeongyu/oh-my-openagentSearches and rewrites code by AST shape across 25 languages. Use when the target is a syntax pattern (every call/class/import shaped like X, a codemod, a YAML rule) rather than literal text; for plain strings, comments, or filenames, use rg.Engineering★ 70.3K
- serenaDianel555/DSkillsSemantic code understanding with IDE-like symbol operations. Use when: (1) Large codebase analysis (>50 files), (2) Symbol-level operations (find, rename, refactor), (3) Cross-file reference tracking, (4) Project memory and session persistence, (5) Multi-language semantic navigation. Triggers: "find symbol", "rename function", "find references", "symbol overview", "project memory". IMPORTANT: Prioritize Serena's symbolic tools over file-based grep/read for code exploration.Engineering★ 65
