Navigates complex codebases by indexing symbols, finding call sites, and generating structural file outlines.
The Code Search skill for Claude Code provides advanced codebase intelligence by indexing and querying symbols like functions, classes, and types across your entire project. It allows developers to quickly locate definitions, perform impact analysis by identifying call sites, and understand file structures using token-efficient outlines without reading the entire file. By leveraging Tree-sitter for precision and integrating static analysis findings for complexity and security, this skill transforms Claude into a sophisticated navigator for large-scale repositories.
