About this skill
Search Tools is a skill in parcadei/Continuous-Claude-v3 (3.9k stars). Its SKILL.md is about 491 tokens, and copies of it appear in 1 other owners' repositories. Licence: MIT.
What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit d07ff4b. 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
Search Tools loads about 491 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 9 tokens; SKILL.md has 128 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.

Search Tool Hierarchy
When searching code, use this decision tree:
Decision Tree
Need CONCEPTUAL/SEMANTIC search?
(how does X work, find patterns, understand architecture)
→ Use LEANN (/leann-search) - embedding-based semantic search
→ PreToolUse hook auto-redirects semantic Grep queries
Need to understand code STRUCTURE?
(find function calls, class usages, refactor patterns)
→ Use AST-grep (/ast-grep-find)
Need to find TEXT in code?
→ Use Morph (/morph-search) - 20x faster
→ If no Morph API key: fall back to Grep tool
Simple one-off search?
→ Use built-in Grep tool directlyTool Comparison
| Tool | Best For | Requires |
|---|---|---|
| LEANN | Semantic search: "how does caching work", "error handling patterns", conceptual queries | Index built |
| AST-grep | Structural patterns: "find all calls to foo()", refactoring, find usages by type | MCP server |
| Morph | Fast text search: "find files mentioning error", grep across codebase | API key |
| Grep | Literal patterns, class/function names, regex | Nothing (built-in) |
Examples
LEANN (semantic/conceptual):
- "how does authentication work"
- "find error handling patterns"
- "where is rate limiting implemented"
AST-grep (structural):
- "Find all functions that return a Promise"
- "Find all React components using useState"
- "Refactor all imports of X to Y"
Morph (text search):
- "Find all files mentioning 'authentication'"
- "Search for TODO comments"
Grep (literal):
class ProviderAdapterdef __init__- Regex patterns
LEANN Commands
# Search with semantic query
leann search opc-dev "how does blackboard communication work" --top-k 5
# List available indexes
leann list
# Rebuild index (when code changes)
leann build opc-dev --docs dir1 dir2 --no-recompute --no-compact --force© parcadei, MIT. Rendered from Markdown: HTML in the file is shown as text, images as links, and headings moved down two levels. Raw file

Questions about Search Tools
How do I install Search Tools in Claude Code?
Run `npx skills add parcadei/Continuous-Claude-v3 --skill search-tools -a claude-code`. Or copy the skill folder (.claude/skills/search-tools in parcadei/Continuous-Claude-v3) into .claude/skills/search-tools in your project. Claude Code loads it when a task matches its description.
How do I install Search Tools in Codex?
Run `npx skills add parcadei/Continuous-Claude-v3 --skill search-tools -a codex`. Or copy the skill folder (.claude/skills/search-tools in parcadei/Continuous-Claude-v3) into .agents/skills/search-tools in your project. Codex loads it when a task matches its description.
Can I use Search Tools in Cursor, Gemini CLI or GitHub Copilot?
Cursor, Gemini CLI, GitHub Copilot and OpenCode also load SKILL.md folders. With the skills CLI, run `npx skills add parcadei/Continuous-Claude-v3 --skill search-tools -a cursor` (or -a gemini-cli, github-copilot or opencode for the others). To copy it by hand, put the folder in .cursor/skills/search-tools, .gemini/skills/search-tools, .github/skills/search-tools and .opencode/skills/search-tools in your project.
What does Search Tools need to run?
SKILL.md names no scripts, command-line tools or credentials: Search Tools is instructions for the agent only.
Does Search Tools access the network?
SKILL.md contains no URLs. Any network use would come from the scripts or tools the agent runs. This is read from the text; nothing was executed.
Is Search Tools safe to install?
Our automated static check of SKILL.md found no risky patterns, such as piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files or hidden Unicode. It is not a guarantee. Review the folder before installing.
What licence does Search Tools use?
Search Tools is published under the MIT licence (the repository's licence). It allows redistribution, so the full SKILL.md is shown on this page.
How many tokens does Search Tools use?
About 491 tokens (SKILL.md is roughly 2k characters). Agents keep only the skill's name and description in context until a task matches; then they load SKILL.md in full.
What are the alternatives to Search Tools?
Skills that share tags, products or a category with Search Tools: Hierarchy (hashgraph-online/awesome-codex-plugins, 1.3k stars), Heading Hierarchy (thedaviddias/Front-End-Checklist, 74k stars), Visual Hierarchy (Owl-Listener/designer-skills, 2.9k stars) and Agent Hierarchy (cbrock84/headcount, 2k stars). The comparison table on this page puts their stars, adoption, token cost, safety result and licence side by side.
Who maintains Search Tools?
