Does this require an IDE to work?

No, it uses the ripgrep command-line tool, making it extremely fast for searching codebases directly in the terminal environment used by Claude Code.

What is the .NET Symbol Grep Recipes skill?

It is a set of optimized ripgrep (rg) commands that help Claude quickly navigate and understand the structure of C# projects by searching for specific patterns.

Can it find Dependency Injection registrations?

Yes, it includes specific recipes to find Singleton, Scoped, and Transient service registrations commonly used in .NET Core and .NET 5+ projects.

Does it support MSTest discovery?

Yes, it contains specialized patterns to identify TestClasses, TestMethods, and DataRows within C# test files for rapid test auditing.

Is it compatible with Razor Pages?

Absolutely, it includes commands to find PageModels and associated .cshtml files to simplify frontend-backend navigation in ASP.NET projects.

Developer Tools

Navigates C# codebases quickly using optimized ripgrep recipes for symbols, dependencies, and project structures.

About

The .NET Symbol Grep Recipes skill provides a curated collection of pre-configured ripgrep commands designed specifically for C# developers to streamline codebase navigation within Claude Code. It enables rapid discovery of type definitions, interface implementations, and Dependency Injection registrations without the overhead of heavy IDE indexing. This skill is particularly effective for exploring large-scale .NET solutions, allowing developers to map relationships between handlers, controllers, and their corresponding tests or DI configurations during refactoring and debugging sessions.

Key Features

Fast symbol discovery for classes, interfaces, records, and structs
0 GitHub stars
Identifies Web API components including Handlers, Controllers, and Endpoints
Maps relationships between source code and MSTest test files
Navigates Razor Pages and custom generated file definitions
Locates interface implementations and Dependency Injection registrations

Use Cases

Quickly finding where a specific interface is implemented and registered in the DI container
Navigating large legacy .NET codebases to identify all endpoints and their associated handlers
Locating relevant unit tests for a specific class to ensure code coverage during refactoring
