Checkfor

关于

Checkfor is a lightweight command-line interface (CLI) tool designed for token-efficient file searching within a single directory. It generates JSON output, making it ideal for programmatic parsing and integration with AI-assisted workflows like Claude Code. Optimized to reduce token consumption significantly compared to general-purpose search tools, Checkfor helps maintain AI context limits during complex refactoring tasks, enabling faster responses and cost savings.
