Semantic code search and index management with the ccc CLI: the agent initializes, indexes and queries the project by concept, filtering by language or path.
- Finding code by concept, such as where retries or authentication are handled
- SKILL.md covers Ownership, Searching the Codebase, Settings and Management & Troubleshooting
- Instructions only: no scripts, shell commands, URLs or credentials in SKILL.md
- Refreshing the codebase index after refactors or new files
What it does
ccc is the command line for CocoIndex Code, giving the agent semantic search over the current codebase plus index management. The agent owns the whole lifecycle, so it does not ask you to run steps. If a search or index command fails because the project is not initialized, it runs `ccc init` from the project root, then `ccc index`, and retries. It refreshes the index at the start of a session or after significant changes such as new files, refactors or renamed modules, but not between consecutive searches when no code changed.
Queries should describe a concept, function or behavior rather than exact syntax, for example database connection pooling or error handling retry logic. Results can be limited by language with repeated `--lang` flags, by a glob with `--path` (the default is the current directory), and paged with `--offset` and `--limit`. The agent never runs `ccc init` in the settings directory, usually your home folder, and leaves `ccc reset` to you. Installation, management and settings details are in two reference files; the excerpt is cut off after pagination.
When your agent uses it
- Finding code by concept, such as where retries or authentication are handled
- Refreshing the codebase index after refactors or new files
- Searching only certain languages or subdirectories
Example prompts
- “Find where we handle database connection pooling.”
- “Update the index and search for the user authentication flow under src/api.”
- “Search only the Python and Markdown files for the database schema.”
Requirements
- The ccc CLI (CocoIndex Code), installed as described in references/management.md
What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit b883be0. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.
Tool permissions
Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.
From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.
Runs code
No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md (its code samples are bash).
From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.
Network
No URLs in SKILL.md.
From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.
Credentials
Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.
From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.
Context cost
ccc Semantic Code Search loads about 938 tokens when it runs, and up to ~2.9k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 88 tokens; SKILL.md has 436 words of instructions outside code blocks.
Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.
Safety
Auto-check passed
The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.
Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

- ccc
- description
- This skill should be used when code search is needed (whether explicitly requested or as part of completing a task), when indexing the codebase after changes, or when the user asks about ccc, cocoindex-code, or the codebase index. Trigger phrases include 'search the codebase', 'find code related to', 'update the index', 'ccc', 'cocoindex-code'.
ccc - Semantic Code Search & Indexing
ccc is the CLI for CocoIndex Code, providing semantic search over the current codebase and index management.
Ownership
The agent owns the ccc lifecycle for the current project — initialization, indexing, and searching. Do not ask the user to perform these steps; handle them automatically.
- Initialization: If
ccc searchorccc indexfails with an initialization error (e.g., "Not in an initialized project directory"), runccc initfrom the project root directory, thenccc indexto build the index, then retry the original command.- Exception: if
ccc indexrefuses because the directory holds ccc's user settings directory (usually your home directory), do not runccc initthere. Run ccc from inside the project instead, or ask the user which project to use. - Exception: if a ccc note says the project in use is that directory (a repo below it has no project of its own), tell the user. Do not run
ccc resetthere yourself: whether it should stay a project is the user's call.
- Exception: if
- Index freshness: Keep the index up to date by running
ccc index(orccc search --refresh) when the index may be stale — e.g., at the start of a session, or after making significant code changes (new files, refactors, renamed modules). There is no need to re-index between consecutive searches if no code was changed in between. - Installation: If
cccitself is not found (command not found), refer to management.md for installation instructions and inform the user.
Searching the Codebase
To perform a semantic search:
ccc search <query terms>The query should describe the concept, functionality, or behavior to find, not exact code syntax. For example:
ccc search database connection pooling
ccc search user authentication flow
ccc search error handling retry logicShow full SKILL.md (182 more words)Show less
Filtering Results
By language (
--lang, repeatable): restrict results to specific languages.bash ccc search --lang python --lang markdown database schemaBy path (
--path): restrict results to a glob pattern relative to project root. If omitted, defaults to the current working directory (only results under that subdirectory are returned).bash ccc search --path 'src/api/*' request validation
Pagination
Results default to the first page. To retrieve additional results:
ccc search --offset 5 --limit 5 database schemaIf all returned results look relevant, use --offset to fetch the next page — there are likely more useful matches beyond the first page.
Working with Search Results
Search results include file paths and line ranges. To explore a result in more detail:
- Use the editor's built-in file reading capabilities (e.g., the
Readtool) to load the matched file and read lines around the returned range for full context. - When working in a terminal without a file-reading tool, use
sed -n '<start>,<end>p' <file>to extract a specific line range.
