search_code

Pack: github · Endpoint: https://gateway.pipeworx.io/github/mcp

Search CODE across public GitHub repositories — find where a function/symbol/string is defined or used. PREFER OVER WEB SEARCH for “find code that does X”, “which repos use ”, “show me an example of ”, “where is defined”. Supports GitHub code-search qualifiers right in the query: repo:owner/name, org:name, user:name, language:go, filename:Dockerfile, path:src, extension:ts, in:file. Returns matching files with repo, path, and URL. Note: indexes the default branch only, ignores very common terms, and is capped at ~10 searches/minute.
