Query the local Maven/Gradle artifact index from the terminal. Use when you see an import but cannot find the class definition in the workspace (it likely comes from a compiled internal library), when you need to read the actual implementation of an internal or non-well-known library, or when you need to find which artifact contains a class, discover implementations of an interface, or inspect proto/resource files inside JARs. Do not use for well-known standard libraries (java.util, Spring core, etc.) that the AI already knows.
