smart-explore

Token-optimized structural code search using tree-sitter AST parsing

smart-explore is a skill from the claude-mem project that replaces full-file reading with structural code search based on tree-sitter AST parsing, which keeps token use low. While the skill is active, it tells the agent to use its smart_search, smart_outline and smart_unfold tools as the primary way to explore code, instead of Read, Grep and Glob. The core principle is to index first and fetch on demand: get a map of the code before loading implementation detail. Before opening any file, the agent asks whether it needs to see all of it or whether a structural overview would do. The three tools work in order. smart_search walks a directory, parses the code files and returns ranked symbols and files in one call, which replaces the usual cycle of globbing, grepping and reading. smart_outline gives the structural skeleton of a single file. smart_unfold returns the full source of one named symbol. The skill notes that it only loads instructions, so the agent must call the MCP tools itself.
