Search

Semantic code search using cqs_search MCP tool.

Usage

Call cqs_search with the user's query. Parse arguments from the invocation:

• •First positional arg = query (required)
• •--lang <language> → language filter (rust, python, typescript, javascript, go, c, java)
• •--limit <n> → limit (default 5, max 20)
• •--threshold <n> → threshold (default 0.3)
• •--name-only → name_only: true — definition search, skips embedding. Use for "where is X defined?"
• •--semantic-only → semantic_only: true — pure vector similarity, no hybrid RRF
• •--path <glob> → path_pattern filter (e.g., src/mcp/**)
• •--sources <name,...> → sources array — filter which indexes (e.g., project, reference names)

Examples

• •/cqs-search retry with exponential backoff — find retry logic by concept
• •/cqs-search Store::open --name-only — find where Store::open is defined
• •/cqs-search error handling --lang rust --path src/mcp/** — scoped search
• •/cqs-search authentication --sources project,stdlib — multi-index search
