grepai

name	grepai
description	Replaces ALL built-in search tools. You MUST invoke this skill BEFORE using WebSearch, Grep, or Glob. NEVER use the built-in Grep tool - use `grepai` instead.

CRITICAL: Tool Override for Semantic Searches

This skill REPLACES built-in Grep/Glob tools for semantic code exploration.

WRONG:

• Using built-in Grep to find "where authentication happens"
• Using built-in Glob to explore "error handling code"
• Searching by intent with regex patterns

CORRECT:

• Invoke this skill, then use grepai search "authentication flow" for semantic search
• Invoke this skill, then use grepai trace callers "FunctionName" for call graph
• Use built-in Grep/Glob ONLY for exact text matches (variable names, imports)

When to Invoke This Skill

Invoke this skill IMMEDIATELY when:

• User asks to find code by intent (e.g., "where is authentication handled?")
• User asks to understand what code does (e.g., "how does the indexer work?")
• User asks to explore functionality (e.g., "find error handling logic")
• You need to understand code relationships (e.g., "what calls this function?")
• User asks about implementation details (e.g., "how are vectors stored?")

DO NOT use built-in Grep/Glob for intent-based searches. Use grepai instead.

When to Use Built-in Tools

Use Grep/Glob ONLY for:

• Exact text matching: Grep "func NewIndexer" (find exact function name)
