Weird to see the use case referenced specifically code search when that's a very targeted one rather than what general purpose agents (or RAG) use cases might target.

The main use case I referenced is SEC filings search, which is quite different from code. Filings are much longer, less structured, and more complex, with tables and footnotes.

I’m sure that was your intent but why did you get bogged down talking about code?

hum because Claude Code pioneered the 'grep/glob/read' paradigm, so I felt the need to explain that what works well for coding files can also be applied to more complex documents.

Did you consider using words to explain that? I don’t think you pay yourself by the word.
