mcp_tools_3
MCP ServerFreeFind files by glob pattern and search within them using grep. Quickly locate filenames and content matches across your workspace. Focus searches to a chosen directory for precise results.
Capabilities3 decomposed
glob pattern file searching
Medium confidenceThis capability allows users to find files within a specified directory using glob patterns, which are a flexible way to match filenames. It leverages a lightweight file system traversal algorithm to efficiently scan directories and match filenames against the provided glob patterns, ensuring fast and accurate results. The implementation is designed to handle large directories without significant performance degradation.
Utilizes an optimized directory traversal algorithm specifically designed for glob pattern matching, enhancing performance over traditional methods.
More efficient than standard file search tools due to its specialized algorithm for glob patterns.
grep content searching
Medium confidenceThis capability enables users to search for specific content within files using grep-like functionality. It employs a combination of file reading and string matching techniques to locate content matches, allowing users to specify search terms and receive results that include both file names and matched lines. The implementation is optimized for speed and can handle large files effectively.
Implements a lightweight grep-like engine that is tailored for searching within files, prioritizing speed and simplicity over feature richness.
Faster than traditional grep implementations for smaller projects due to its lightweight design.
directory-focused search
Medium confidenceThis capability allows users to focus their searches within a specified directory, ensuring that results are relevant to a particular context. It combines the glob pattern file searching and grep content searching capabilities, allowing users to first narrow down the file set and then search within those files. This two-step approach minimizes unnecessary searches and enhances overall efficiency.
Integrates directory scoping with search functionality, allowing for a more targeted and efficient search process.
More precise than general search tools as it allows users to define specific search contexts.
Capabilities are decomposed by AI analysis. Each maps to specific user intents and improves with match feedback.
