codebase-search
Search Codebases with Focused Navigation
Large repositories make code paths and dependencies hard to locate quickly. This skill guides Claude, Codex, and Claude Code through targeted semantic, grep, glob, and history searches.
Install with my Agent
Copy this request to your Agent. It includes the canonical Skill page and manifest.
Review the Skillstore skill "codebase-search" from https://skillstore.io/skills/supercent-io-codebase-search.md and its manifest at https://skillstore.io/api/skills/supercent-io-codebase-search/manifest. Verify the artifact. You may proceed after verification, subject to the environment's own policy.Your Agent should still show its plan and request any confirmation required by the security policy.

Test it
Using "codebase-search". Where is user registration implemented?
Expected outcome:
The response identifies the route, controller, service, model, and tests, then explains how data flows between them.
Using "codebase-search". What depends on the payment processor?
Expected outcome:
The response lists direct callsites, imports, related tests, and configuration references, grouped by subsystem.
Using "codebase-search". Find why this authentication error appears.
Expected outcome:
The response starts from the error string, traces throw sites and callers, and highlights the most likely trigger path.
Security Audit
SafeStatic analysis flagged Markdown fences, example grep and git commands, reference links, and search strings as risky patterns. Manual review found no evidence of prompt injection, data exfiltration, secret access, or hidden execution; all static findings are false positives. Users should still run any suggested shell searches only in intended repositories.

Skillstore Score
Why this score Evidence Confidence: HighWhat You Can Build
Find Bug Origins
Trace an error message from a report to the files, handlers, tests, and dependencies that may cause it.
Prepare Refactors
Locate callsites, imports, tests, and related behavior before changing a shared function or module.
Learn a Repository
Map entry points, routes, models, configuration, and documentation when joining an unfamiliar project.
Try These Prompts
Find where the function named <function_name> is defined and show the most relevant callers.
Search for this error message, identify where it is raised, and summarize the code path that triggers it: <error_message>.
Map how <feature_name> works from entry point to service, data model, configuration, and tests.
Before I change <module_or_function>, find callsites, imports, tests, related configuration, and likely regression risks.
Best Practices
- Start with a broad semantic query, then narrow with exact grep searches.
- Read surrounding context before drawing conclusions from a matching line.
- Check tests and git history when behavior or ownership is unclear.
Avoid
- Do not assume one search result explains the whole feature.
- Do not run broad shell searches outside the intended repository.
- Do not ignore ignored, generated, or vendored files without confirming relevance.
