List contents of a directory with metadata including file sizes and line counts

Read file contents. For large files (>500 lines), use start_line to read in chunks (e.g., 0, 500, 1000). Each call returns up to 500 lines. Binary files return metadata only.

Search for code patterns using ripgrep (very fast). Supports regex patterns and advanced filtering.

PATTERN EXAMPLES:

• Exact text: "functionName"

• Multiple options: "\b(class|struct|record|interface|enum)\s+TypeName\b" (finds: class TypeName, record TypeName, interface TypeName, etc.)

• Regex: "async.*Promise<.*>" (finds async functions returning Promise)

• Any declaration: "\b(public|private|protected)\s+\w+\s+methodName"

COMMON USE CASES:

• Find type declaration: "\b(class|struct|interface|record|enum)\s+TypeName\b"

• Find method: "\b(public|private|protected|internal).\s+methodName\s\("

• Find property: "\bpublic\s+\w+\s+propertyName\s*\{"

• Find async methods: "async.*Task<"

• Find implementations: ":\s*IInterfaceName\b"

TIPS:

• Use \b for word boundaries

• Use \s+ for whitespace

• Combine alternatives with (opt1|opt2|opt3)

• Escape special chars: \( \) \{ \}

Search for patterns within a specific file using ripgrep. Like Ctrl+F but with regex support. Useful for finding specific sections in a known file.

Find files by name using fast pattern matching.

PATTERN EXAMPLES:

• Exact name: "config.json"

• Wildcard: "*.config" or "Handler"

• Multiple extensions: "*.{ts,tsx,js}"

TIPS:

• Use * for any characters

• Use ? for single character

• Use {a,b,c} for alternatives

Get file metadata without reading contents. Useful to check size/line count before reading. For large files, provides reading strategy recommendations.

Show which directories this server can access (security boundaries). No parameters required.
