file-search
Perform fast file name and content searches with ripgrep (rg); use it when you need to locate files by glob/regex, find keywords across directories, or replace common find/grep workflows.

## When to Use
- You need to list files matching a pattern (e.g., `*.rs`, `*.md`) across a project quickly.
- You want to find occurrences of a keyword/regex (e.g., `TODO|FIXME`) across one or more directories.
- You need contextual matches (lines before/after) to understand how a symbol or string is used.
- You want a faster, simpler replacement for typical `find` + `grep` pipelines.
- You need to narrow searches by file type (e.g., Rust-only) while scanning large repositories.
## Key Features
- File name discovery via `rg --files` combined with `--glob` filters.
- Content search using regex patterns with high performance.
- Context output around matches (e.g., `-C 3`) for quick inspection.
