zvec-grep - local-first workspace search for humans and agents

zvec-grep, invoked as zg, is a Node CLI and local MCP server. It combines ranked lexical retrieval, vector retrieval, and managed ripgrep over one scoped workspace. It is a search tool, not a general web search engine, a production search backend, or a durable project-memory store.

When to use this skill

• The user wants to install, update, configure, or operate @zvec/zvec-grep.
• An agent needs local evidence from a repository or mixed workspace and the wording or location is unknown.
• The task needs a choice between indexed hybrid or semantic retrieval and exhaustive exact or regex matching through zg query --rg.
• A workspace index, local MCP daemon, agent integration, refresh state, model choice, or Remote Embedding authorization needs diagnosis.
• The user asks about zvec_grep_search, the optional full MCP toolset, or the zg install integration targets.
