Question 1

When should I use this skill instead of a regular search?

Accepted Answer

Use Code Structure when you need to understand 'what' exists in a module—such as listing all methods, classes, or API exports. Use search tools when you are looking for 'where' a specific term is defined or used.

Question 2

What capabilities and tools does it provide?

Accepted Answer

The skill provides a tiered exploration strategy using ast-grep for pattern matching, toolchain-specific commands like 'go doc' for Go packages, and universal ctags for language-agnostic symbol indexing.

Question 3

What does the Code Structure skill do?

Accepted Answer

This skill enables Claude to efficiently map out codebases by extracting file structures, function signatures, and exports using specialized tools like ast-grep and ctags, rather than reading entire files into context.

Question 4

Does it support specific programming languages?

Accepted Answer

Yes, it features language-specific indexing for major ecosystems including Go, Python, and JavaScript/TypeScript, ensuring that structure extraction is accurate and follows language-specific conventions.

Question 5

How does this skill improve my AI coding workflow?

Accepted Answer

It significantly improves efficiency by reducing token usage by over 90% for large files. It allows Claude to get a 'bird's-eye view' of the code first, so it only reads the specific implementation details necessary for the task.
