Code search helper

Wraps gh search code with local filtering, sorting, summaries, and file output.

node scripts/gh_code_search.mjs "TODO" --language javascript --exclude-forks
node scripts/gh_code_search.mjs "error handling" --repo owner/repo --output json
node scripts/gh_code_search.mjs "class Component" --owner org --sort-by matches --output summary

Options beyond native GitHub search:

  • --exclude-forks, --exclude-private
  • --min-matches N
  • -o, --output pretty|summary|json
  • --sort-by matches|repo|path
  • --output-file PATH
  • --timeout SECONDS

Use gh search code --help for native filters such as language, filename, extension, repository, owner, match target, and size.
