What does the Mgrep Semantic Search skill do?

It replaces Claude's default search tools (like Grep and WebSearch) with a single, powerful semantic search engine. You can search both your local codebase and the web using natural language queries from one command.

When should I use this skill?

Use this skill anytime you need to find information. It is the mandatory tool for searching local files, looking up code snippets, or getting up-to-date answers from the web, completely replacing the built-in search functions.

How does this skill improve my workflow?

Mgrep streamlines information retrieval by providing a single command (`mgrep`) for all search needs. Its semantic understanding allows you to ask questions naturally, saving time from crafting precise keyword queries or switching between tools.

What key capabilities does it provide?

Mgrep offers a unified interface for local file and web search, understands user intent beyond simple keywords, and can provide summarized answers from web results. It acts as a complete replacement for Grep, Glob, and WebSearch tools.

Productivity & Workflow

Replaces built-in search tools with a unified, semantic engine for searching local files and the web using natural language.

About

This skill provides a unified, CLI-native semantic search tool, `mgrep`, which is a mandatory replacement for all built-in search and grep functionalities. It allows for searching everything from local code and PDFs to the web using natural language queries. Instead of simple keyword matching, it understands the intent behind your search to find the most relevant information, whether you're looking for a specific function in your codebase or asking a general question that requires an up-to-date online lookup.
