This project is a modern, semantic search tool that brings the simplicity of traditional command-line grep to the world of natural language and multimodal content, enabling users to search across codebases, documents, PDFs, and even images using meaning-aware queries. Built with a focus on calm CLI experiences, it lets you index and query your local files with semantic understanding, delivering results that are relevant to your intent rather than simple pattern matches, which is especially powerful in large or diverse projects. It also includes features such as background indexing to keep your search index up to date without interrupting your workflow and web search integration to expand the scope of queries beyond local files. Designed for both programmers and agents, it integrates naturally into development and research workflows while offering thoughtful defaults that keep output clean and informative.
