Context Mode Search

Search indexed content without rereading raw sources into conversation context.

Instructions

1. Prefer the ctx_search MCP tool when it is available.
2. Batch all related questions in one queries array.
3. Scope with source when the user names a project or indexed label.
4. Use short, specific queries of two to four technical terms.

ctx_search({
  source: "project:<name>",
  queries: ["authentication middleware", "token refresh"],
  limit: 5
})

1. If MCP tools are unavailable, fall back to the CLI:

context-mode search "authentication middleware" --source project:<name> --limit 5

1. If the index is empty, tell the user to run /context-mode:ctx-index or context-mode index <path> first.
