# Code Search

## When To Use

- Finding existing implementations or libraries on GitHub
- Part of a `/tome:research` session or standalone search

## When NOT To Use

- Searching local codebase (use Grep or Explore agent)
- Academic literature (use `/tome:papers`)

Search GitHub for implementations of a given topic.

## Usage

Invoked as part of `/tome:research` or standalone.

## Workflow

1. Build search queries using
   `tome.channels.github.build_github_search_queries()`
2. Execute queries via WebSearch
3. Parse results via `parse_github_result()`
4. Optionally use GitHub API via
   `build_github_api_search()` for richer metadata
5. Rank via `rank_github_findings()`
6. Return Finding objects
