How much faster is this compared to standard grep?

This skill utilizes ripgrep, which is architected for speed and typically performs 10 to 100 times faster than standard grep, especially in large directories.

What happens if a search takes too long on a massive codebase?

The skill supports background execution. You can set a timeout, and if the search exceeds it, Claude will return partial results while continuing the search in the background.

Can I search for patterns that span across multiple lines?

Yes, by enabling the multiline parameter, you can find patterns like multiline function signatures, struct definitions, or long comments.

Can I search for exact strings containing special characters like brackets?

Yes, you can enable the literal_search parameter to match code symbols exactly without them being interpreted as regex special characters.

Does it respect .gitignore files automatically?

Yes, the search tool respects .gitignore and hidden files by default to ensure you only search relevant source code, though this can be overridden if needed.

開発者ツール

Performs high-performance, ripgrep-powered code and file searches across large repositories with precision filtering and regex support.

概要

Advanced Code Search is a high-performance utility for Claude Code that leverages the power of ripgrep to deliver search results up to 100 times faster than standard grep. It allows Claude to navigate massive codebases efficiently by performing complex regex or literal searches within file contents or across filenames while automatically respecting .gitignore rules. With specialized controls for multiline matching, file type filtering, and background execution, this skill is essential for developers working in large monorepos who need to discover patterns, locate specific definitions, or generate codebase statistics quickly.
