Tools

code_search finds syntax trees using ast-grep metavariables. The default result limit is 100.
code_rewrite performs structural replacement. It defaults to dry_run: true; review the preview before setting dry_run: false.

Both tools accept a language and optional workspace-relative path. Output is capped at 30,000 characters.

Supported languages: TypeScript, JavaScript, TSX, JSX, Python, Rust, Go, Java, C, C++, C#, Ruby, Swift, Kotlin, Lua, HTML, CSS, JSON, and YAML.
