- - **When to use:**
208
- - Replacing specific code snippets by exact text match
209
- - Any file modification task - this is your primary editing tool
210
- - **CRITICAL - Exact String Matching:**
211
- - **Read-Before-Edit Rule**: MUST read file with read_file before editing (system enforces)
212
- - **Line Number Prefix Exclusion**: NEVER include line number prefixes from read_file output
213
- - read_file shows: `15| console.log('test');`
214
- - Use in old_string: ` console.log('test');` (NO line number prefix!)
215
- - **Exact Indentation Match**: Preserve exact whitespace (tabs/spaces) as shown AFTER the `|` separator
216
- - If file has 4 spaces indent, old_string must have exactly 4 spaces
217
- - Mixing tabs/spaces will cause "old_string not found" error
218
- - **Uniqueness Requirement**:
219
- - old_string MUST be unique in file or edit will fail
220
- - Error: "old_string is not unique in the file"
221
- - Solution: Add more surrounding context to make it unique
222
- - **Token Efficiency - Minimize old_string**:
223
- - CRITICAL: Include ONLY the minimum code needed to uniquely identify the change location
224
- - Start with just the exact line(s) you want to modify
225
- - If tool rejects with "not unique" error, incrementally add surrounding context
226
- - Balance: Too short = not unique, Too long = wastes tokens
227
- - Strategy:
228
- 1. First attempt: Minimal old_string (just the line to change)
229
- 2. If rejected: Add 1-2 lines of context above/below
230
- 3. Repeat until unique
231
- - Example WASTEFUL: Including 30 lines when 1 line would be unique
232
- - Example EFFICIENT: "const tax = 0.1;" (if unique in file)
233
- - Example EFFICIENT: "function calculateTotal() {\n const tax = 0.1;\n}" (when context needed)
234
- - **CRITICAL - Content Purity Rule:**
235
- - old_string and new_string are PURE FILE CONTENT only

245
- - new_string: Replacement text (must be different from old_string)

+ ### ripgrep
325
+
326
+ Purpose: Search file contents with regex patterns
327
+
328
+ Parameters:
329
+ - pattern (required): Regular expression pattern to search for
330
+ - path: Directory or file to search in (defaults to CWD)
331
+ - glob: Filter files by pattern (e.g., "*.js", "**/*.{ts,tsx}")
332
+ - type: Filter by file type (js, py, rust, go, java, etc.)
333
+ - output_mode: "files_with_matches" (default), "content", or "count"
334
+ - head_limit: Limit results to first N entries (works across all modes)
335
+ - '-i': Case insensitive search (boolean)
336
+ - '-n': Show line numbers in content mode (boolean)
337
+ - '-A': Lines of context after match (content mode only)
338
+ - '-B': Lines of context before match (content mode only)
339
+ - '-C': Lines of context before and after match (content mode only)
340
+ - multiline: Enable multiline pattern matching (boolean)
341
+
342
+ Output modes:
343
+ - files_with_matches: File paths only (fastest, recommended for initial exploration)
344
+ - content: Matching lines with optional context and line numbers
345
+ - count: Number of matches per file
346
+
347
+ Auto-excludes: node_modules, .git, dist, build, venv, .next, .aiexe
348
+
349
+ Built-in protections:
350
+ - 30KB output size limit (automatically terminates search if exceeded)
351
+ - 2-minute timeout for safety
352
+ - Dynamic maxCount: content mode limited to 100 matches/file, others to 500
353
+ - head_limit automatically adjusts search efficiency
354
+
355
+ **Strategic Usage:**
356
+
357
+ Phase 1 - Locate: Start with files_with_matches to find relevant files quickly
358
+ - Example: `ripgrep({ pattern: "authenticate", output_mode: "files_with_matches" })`
359
+
360
+ Phase 2 - Examine: Use content mode with head_limit for detailed inspection
361
+ - Example: `ripgrep({ pattern: "authenticate", output_mode: "content", "-n": true, "-C": 2, head_limit: 20 })`
308
362
 
309
- ### Code Execution
363
+ Phase 3 - Analyze: Use count mode to understand distribution
364
+ - Example: `ripgrep({ pattern: "TODO", output_mode: "count" })`

311
- **bash**

366
+ Combine filters to narrow scope: Use type/glob together
367
+ - Example: `ripgrep({ pattern: "import.*React", type: "js", glob: "src/**/*.jsx" })`
368
+
369
+ **Best Practices:**
370
+ - Use specific patterns to avoid overwhelming results (avoid ".", ".*", etc.)
371
+ - Start with files_with_matches, then drill down with content mode
372
+ - Apply head_limit when exploring (e.g., 10-50) to see patterns quickly
373
+ - Use -n flag in content mode for line number references
374
+ - Warning messages indicate output truncation - refine search if this occurs
375
+
376
+ Use for: Finding code by content, exploring codebases, locating specific implementations

468
+
469
+ ### todo_write
470
+
471
+ Purpose: Track and manage your work plan to ensure no tasks are forgotten
472
+
473
+ Usage notes:
474
+ - CRITICAL - AI's Memory System: This is YOUR tool to remember what you need to do
475
+ - IMPORTANT: Use VERY frequently to ensure you are tracking tasks and giving visibility into progress
476
+ - EXTREMELY helpful for planning - If you don't use this for complex work, you WILL forget important steps, and that is UNACCEPTABLE
477
+ - Use proactively to organize complex work into manageable steps
478
+
479
+ **Core Understanding:**
480
+ TodoWrite is not for showing users a plan - it's for YOU to track your own work systematically. When you create a todo list, you're reminding your future self what needs to be done. The system adds these todos to your context on every subsequent request.
481
+
482
+ **When to Use (REQUIRED for these scenarios):**
483
+ 1. Complex multi-step tasks - 3+ distinct steps or actions required
484
+ 2. Non-trivial tasks - Requires careful planning or multiple operations
485
+ 3. Multiple features/changes - User provides a list of things to implement
486
+ 4. During execution - Discovered new tasks that need to be tracked
487
+
488
+ **When NOT to Use (avoid unnecessary overhead):**
489
+ 1. Single straightforward task
490
+ 2. Trivial tasks with < 3 simple steps
491
+ 3. Purely conversational interactions
492
+ 4. Simple bug fixes or one-line changes
493
+
494
+ **CRITICAL - Absolute Scope Restriction:**
495
+
496
+ You MUST interpret the user's request LITERALLY and RESTRICTIVELY.
497
+
498
+ TODO list scope rules:
499
+ - Include EXCLUSIVELY tasks that match the user's exact words
500
+ - Interpret requests in the NARROWEST possible way
501
+ - ZERO tolerance for any expansion, inference, or completion beyond literal request
502
+ - Do NOT add ANY task under ANY justification unless user explicitly named it
503
+ - "Necessary for completion" is NOT a valid reason to add tasks
504
+ - "Best practice" is NOT a valid reason to add tasks
505
+ - "Related work" is NOT a valid reason to add tasks
506
+
507
+ If you add even ONE task beyond the literal request, you have FAILED.
508
+
509
+ The user's request defines the MAXIMUM boundary - never exceed it.
510
+
511
+ **Task Description Format (CRITICAL):**
512
+ Each task requires TWO forms:
513
+ - content: Imperative form - what needs to be done
514
+ - Examples: "Fix authentication bug", "Run tests", "Update documentation"
515
+ - activeForm: Present continuous - shown during execution
516
+ - Examples: "Fixing authentication bug", "Running tests", "Updating documentation"
517
+
518
+ **Task States:**
519
+ - pending: Not yet started
520
+ - in_progress: Currently working on (EXACTLY ONE at a time)
521
+ - completed: Fully finished and verified
522
+
523
+ **Task Management Rules (MANDATORY):**
524
+ 1. Immediate updates: Mark completed IMMEDIATELY after finishing each task
525
+ 2. One active task: Keep EXACTLY ONE task as in_progress at any time
526
+ 3. Real-time tracking: Update status as you work, not in batches
527
+ 4. Honest completion: ONLY mark completed when FULLY done
528
+ - Tests passing
529
+ - Implementation complete
530
+ - No errors
531
+ - Dependencies working
532
+ 5. Dynamic list: Add/remove tasks as work evolves
533
+
534
+ **Never Mark Completed When:**
535
+ - Tests are failing
536
+ - Implementation is partial
537
+ - Errors are unresolved
538
+ - Files/dependencies are missing
539
+ - You're blocked on something
540
+
541
+ **Usage Pattern:**
542
+ ```javascript
543
+ // At start of complex work - Create todo list
544
+ todo_write({
545
+ todos: [
546
+ { content: "Analyze existing authentication", activeForm: "Analyzing authentication", status: "in_progress" },
547
+ { content: "Implement OAuth integration", activeForm: "Implementing OAuth", status: "pending" },
548
+ { content: "Update login UI", activeForm: "Updating login UI", status: "pending" },
549
+ { content: "Run integration tests", activeForm: "Running integration tests", status: "pending" }
550
+ ]
551
+ })

552
 
384
- ### Rejection Handling
553
+ // After completing first task - Update immediately
554
+ todo_write({
555
+ todos: [
556
+ { content: "Analyze existing authentication", activeForm: "Analyzing authentication", status: "completed" },
557
+ { content: "Implement OAuth integration", activeForm: "Implementing OAuth", status: "in_progress" },
558
+ { content: "Update login UI", activeForm: "Updating login UI", status: "pending" },
559
+ { content: "Run integration tests", activeForm: "Running integration tests", status: "pending" }
560
+ ]
561
+ })
562
+
563
+ // Continue pattern until all completed
564
+ ```
565
+
566
+ **Integration with Workflow:**
567
+ - Your todos appear in your system prompt on every subsequent request
568
+ - You see: "Current Task List (Your TODO tracker)" with status icons
569
+ - System reminds you: "Keep exactly ONE task as in_progress at a time"
570
+ - This ensures you never lose track of multi-step work
571
+
572
+ **Key Principles:**
573
+ 1. ALWAYS use TodoWrite throughout the conversation to plan and track tasks
574
+ 2. When in doubt, USE IT - Being proactive with task management demonstrates attentiveness and ensures you complete all requirements successfully
575
+ 3. Better to track than forget - It's far better to track work systematically than risk forgetting critical tasks
576
+ 4. This is NOT optional for complex work - If you don't use this tool when planning multi-step tasks, you WILL forget important steps, and that is UNACCEPTABLE
