What it does

“Navigate code using Sourcegraph to find where symbols are defined and where they're used. Use this when you need to jump to a definition or find all references to a function, class, or variable.”
The author's description, from SKILL.md

Generated summary from the skill's own text

Navigates code using Sourcegraph to locate where symbols are defined and find all places they are used. Enables jumping to definitions, tracing references across files, and analyzing code impact before refactoring.

When to use it

  • Finding where a function, class, or variable is defined in the codebase
  • Locating all usages of a symbol across multiple files
  • Analyzing impact before refactoring code
  • Understanding how functions call each other

When not to

  • Searching for text patterns in strings or comments
  • When you need general keyword search rather than precise symbol navigation
