osgrep

When to Use

Use this to find code by concept or behavior (e.g., "where is auth validated", "how are plugins loaded"). Note: This tool prioritizes finding the right files and locations in the code. Snippets are truncated (max 16 lines) and are often just previews.

Example:

osgrep "how are plugins loaded"
osgrep "how are plugins loaded" packages/transformers.js/src
