Cheez Search

Category: General  ·  Sub-category: general-misc  ·  Last updated:
This skill should be used when the user asks to find a symbol, definition, caller, import, or text pattern in the codebase — phrases like "where is X defined", "what calls Y", "find all usages of Z", "trace this function", "find the TODO comments", "search for this error string". Replaces grep / rg / ripgrep / ag / ack / find / fd with AST-aware tilth MCP search for name-shaped and text-shaped queries; use ast-grep (`sg`) only for AST-shape patterns with metavariables tilth cannot express. Use even when the user says "grep", "rg", "ripgrep", "ag", "ack", "fd", or "find" — never call host Grep, Glob, ripgrep, ast-grep, or any shell search directly. If tilth MCP is unavailable, stop and report rather than fall back. Do NOT use for reading whole files (use cheez-read), editing code (use cheez-write), or running tests/builds.

Browse related skills at /category/general/.
What is a Claude Code skill and how does the Cheez Search skill fit in?
