A command for finding text patterns in the files of a codebase, with nearby lines included in the results.

For finding function names, error messages, settings, or other patterns across selected file types.

It avoids manually checking files one by one when you need to locate code, text, or configuration.

Per session 10 Only the description is in the session, so the agent can decide to use it. The body loads when it is invoked.

When invoked 126 The whole file, excluding the scripts and references it only reads on demand.

Security scan A 0 findings. A grade says what 26 rules found in the file — not that it is safe.

Origin original No closer match found in the catalogue.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Model	Per session	Once invoked
Fable 5.1	$0.00010	$0.00126
Opus 5.5	$0.00004	$0.00050
Sonnet 5.5	$0.00002	$0.00025
Haiku 4.5	$0.00001	$0.00013

Security

Grade A, and why

search-code scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 2mo ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

What it actually says

Search for code patterns across the codebase using mcp__fd__fd_search_content.

Ask the user what pattern they want to search for, and optionally which file types to search in.

Then use mcp__fd__fd_search_content with:

search_pattern: the pattern provided by user
extension: file type if specified (e.g., "py", "js", "md")
context_lines: 2 (to show surrounding code)

This is 10-100x faster than find -exec grep and shows context around matches.

Changes

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.

search-code is a command published in the GitHub repository thhart/fd-mcp (1 stars, last pushed 11mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 10 tokens to every session and 126 once invoked, about $0.0000 per session on Opus 5.5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-31.
