Use when searching text in files, codebases, books, or documents. Use when finding files by pattern, searching large files that are too big to read fully, extracting specific content from many files, or when grep/find is too slow. Triggers on "search for", "find occurrences", "look for pattern", "search in files".

Works with any agent that supports SKILL.md skills.

What this skill can do

Install

Paste this into your terminal. It downloads exactly the version we scanned, not whatever is newest.

if [ -e ~/.agents/skills/'ripgrep' ] || [ -L ~/.agents/skills/'ripgrep' ]; then echo 'A skill folder named ripgrep already exists — not replacing it' >&2; false; else d=$(mktemp -d) && git clone --quiet --filter=blob:none --no-checkout 'https://github.com/ratacat/claude-skills' "$d" && git -C "$d" checkout --quiet 'd4b471d05ddad5c69a8c0e1da69fd94e957f0a4b' -- 'skills/ripgrep' && mkdir -p ~/.agents/skills && cp -R "$d"/'skills/ripgrep' ~/.agents/skills/'ripgrep' && rm -rf "$d"; fi

Codex reads ~/.agents/skills directly. For Claude Code, Cursor, Copilot, Gemini CLI, Antigravity or OpenCode, also link it. For Claude Code: ln -s ~/.agents/skills/'ripgrep' ~/.claude/skills/'ripgrep' (other agents: ~/.cursor/skills, ~/.copilot/skills, ~/.gemini/skills, ~/.gemini/config/skills, ~/.config/opencode/skills). Or install through the finder skill, which does both.
