How does ogrep differ from traditional grep?

While grep searches for literal text strings, ogrep uses semantic embeddings to understand the meaning of your query, finding relevant code even if the keywords don't match exactly.

How can I reduce token usage when searching large repos?

You can use the --summarize flag to get a file-level overview first, allowing you to narrow down the relevant files before drilling into specific code chunks.

Does ogrep support multi-branch development?

Yes, ogrep is branch-aware. It tracks files per git branch to ensure that your search results are always relevant to the code you are currently working on.

What is AST-aware chunking?

AST-aware chunking uses tree-sitter to understand code structure, ensuring that search results return complete, logically coherent blocks (like full functions or classes) rather than arbitrary line ranges.

Performs semantic search to find code by meaning and intent rather than relying on literal keyword matches.

소개

ogrep is a specialized search utility for Claude Code designed to solve the 'cold start' problem in unfamiliar codebases. By leveraging semantic embeddings, it allows developers to locate logic and implementation details through conceptual queries—such as asking 'how are payments handled'—even when exact function or class names are unknown. The skill features AST-aware chunking for structurally coherent results, branch tracking to ensure search accuracy across git history, and a robust core loop that helps Claude navigate, explore, and extract precise code evidence with line-level citations.
