File Search Skill

Use this skill to recursively search for files or file contents within a specified directory.

Workflow

1. Identify the user's search criteria:
   • By name/extension pattern (e.g., "*.md")
   • By content (e.g., "contains the word 'auth'")
   • By metadata (e.g., "modified in the last 7 days", "larger than 10MB")
2. Formulate the appropriate bash command:
   • Use find <dir> -name "*.ext" -type f to search by name.
   • Use grep -rn "pattern" <dir> or rg "pattern" <dir> (if ripgrep is available) to search by content.
   • Use find <dir> -mtime -7 -size +10M to search by metadata.
3. Execute the command using the bash tool.
4. Process the output and present the results clearly to the user.
