deepsearch

name	deepsearch
description	Deep codebase search — thorough multi-angle exploration with cross-validation
tags	["search","exploration"]

When to Use

• User says "deepsearch" or wants an exhaustive codebase search
• Need to find all occurrences of a pattern, not just the first match
• Complex search requiring multiple strategies (name, usage, tests, docs)

Workflow

1. Search from 5+ angles: exact name, camelCase/snake_case variants, usages, tests, docs, config. Delegate to @omg:explore for thorough codebase mapping.
2. Cross-validate findings across search strategies
3. If results are insufficient, follow up with targeted grep/glob searches
4. For symbol-level search: check imports, exports, type definitions, test mocks
5. Present structured findings with relationships

Output

Follows @omg:explore output format: Findings, Impact, Relationships, Recommendation, Next Steps.

Trigger Keywords

deepsearch, exhaustive search, find everything

Example

copilot -i "deepsearch: find all error handling patterns"
