Oh man, maybe this would cause people to write docs that are easy to grep through. Let’s start up that feedback loop immediately, please.

How will you grep synonyms or phrases with different word choices?
I’m hoping that the documentation will be structured in a way such that Claude can easily come up with good grep regexes. If Claude can do it, I can probably do it only a little bit worse.
Re cost though, you can usually reduce the cost significantly with context caching here.
However, in general, I’ve been positively surprised with how effective Claude Code is at grep’ing through huge codebases.
Thus, I think just putting a Claude Code-like agent in a loop, with a grep tool on your docs, and a system prompt that contains just a brief overview of your product and brief summaries of all the docs pages, would likely be my go to.
