Search Tips

Good queries (literal code patterns):

•useState(
•import React from
•async function
•(?s)try {.*await

Bad queries (keywords - won't work well):

•react state management
•how to use hooks

Examples

bash

# Find useState usage patterns
mh -u https://mcp.grep.app -t http invoke searchGitHub '{"query": "useState("}'

# Find async/await patterns
mh -u https://mcp.grep.app -t http invoke searchGitHub '{"query": "async function fetch"}'

# Find import patterns
mh -u https://mcp.grep.app -t http invoke searchGitHub '{"query": "from \"openai\""}'
