AST Code Search enhances Claude's ability to navigate complex repositories by utilizing ast-grep for structure-based searching instead of simple text matching. By parsing the Abstract Syntax Tree, this skill allows for high-precision queries that identify specific function calls, class definitions, and API usage while ignoring noise from comments or string literals. It is an essential tool for developers performing large-scale refactors, auditing architectural patterns, or onboarding into unfamiliar codebases where traditional regex-based search tools like grep or ripgrep produce too many false positives.
