local-search

local-search is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from malue-ai/dazee-small. It costs 34 tokens per session (686 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A skill for searching a user’s local files and knowledge base. It uses a text-and-meaning search tool first, then macOS Spotlight for filename and metadata searches.

In plain words
What is it for?
Finding reports and other local files by content, filename, file type, or topic, then showing matching paths and text excerpts.
Why use it?
It helps find documents when the user remembers their contents or topic but not where they were saved.

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

local-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 9d 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

本地文件搜索

在用户电脑上搜索文件内容和文件名。

使用场景

  • 用户说「帮我找一下上次写的报告」「搜一下包含 XXX 的文件」
  • 用户需要查找特定文件但不记得存在哪里
  • 任务执行中需要定位参考文件

搜索方式

方式 1:knowledge_search 工具(内容搜索,首选)

搜索已索引知识库中的文档内容。支持 FTS5 全文搜索和语义搜索。

工具名: knowledge_search

参数:
  query:     搜索查询(自然语言),必填
  limit:     返回结果数量,默认 5
  file_type: 过滤文件类型(如 .md, .txt, .pdf),可选

方式 2:mdfind(文件名搜索,补充)

knowledge_search 无结果时,用 macOS Spotlight 按文件名或元数据搜索。

# 按文件名搜索
mdfind -name "报告"

# 限定目录
mdfind -onlyin ~/Documents "预算"

# 限定文件类型
mdfind "kind:pdf 合同"
mdfind "kind:word 报告"

搜索策略

  1. 优先用 knowledge_search:覆盖已索引的知识库文件,支持内容搜索和语义匹配
  2. knowledge_search 无结果时用 mdfind:按文件名或元数据搜索,覆盖面更广
  3. 两者都无结果时:告知用户,询问是否需要将目标目录加入知识库索引

输出规范

  • 展示搜索结果,包含文件路径和摘要片段
  • 路径用 ~ 简写用户目录
  • 告知用户总共找到多少结果
  • 结果过多时询问用户是否要进一步筛选

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.
