search

A command for multi-angle exploration of a codebase, external documentation, and referenced media.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to investigate unfamiliar projects, find code patterns, consult documentation, or understand diagrams and other media.
Why use it?
It brings together code search and outside research when a question cannot be answered reliably from one source. The results include file locations, an answer, and suggested next steps.

Per session 0 Only the description is in the session, so the agent can decide to use it. The body loads when it is invoked.
When invoked 89 The whole file, excluding the scripts and references it only reads on demand.
Security scan A 0 findings. Scan, not verified.
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.

Security

Grade A, and why

search 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 3d 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

Use Toph (the search specialist agent) for multi-angle exploration.

Search the codebase AND external documentation in parallel:

  • Use Grep, Glob, and SemanticSearch for internal codebase patterns
  • Use WebSearch and WebFetch for external docs and best practices
  • Analyze any referenced media files (PDFs, images, diagrams)

Return structured results with absolute file paths, a direct answer to the actual need, and clear next steps.

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 is a command published in the GitHub repository tmcfarlane/oh-my-cursor (108 stars, last pushed 2mo ago), licensed MIT. It costs nothing until one of its globs matches a file; then it loads 89 tokens. 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 2026-08-30.
