-**FFF** stands for ~freakin fast fuzzy file finder~ (pick 3) and it is an opinionated fuzzy file picker for neovim. Just for files, but we'll try to solve file picking completely.
+---

-It comes with a dedicated rust backend runtime that keep tracks of the file index, your file access and modifications, git status, and provides a comprehensive typo-resistant fuzzy search experience.
+**FFF** stands for ~~freakin fast fuzzy file finder~~ (pick 3) and it is an opinionated fuzzy file picker for your AI agent and Neovim. Just for file search, but we do the file search really fff well.

-## Features
+FFF is a tool for grepping, fuzzy file matching, globbing, and multigrepping with a strong focus on performance and useful search results. For humans - provides an unbelievable typo-resistant experience, for AI agents - implements the fastest file search with additional free memory suggesting the best search results based on various factors like frecency, git status, file size, definition matches, and more.

- Works out of the box with no additional configuration
- [Typo resistant fuzzy search](https://github.com/saghen/frizbee)
- Git status integration allowing to take advantage of last modified times within a worktree
- Separate file index maintained by a dedicated backend allows <10 milliseconds search time for 50k files codebase
- Display images in previews (for now requires snacks.nvim)
- Smart in a plenty of different ways hopefully helpful for your workflow
- This plugin initializes itself lazily by default
+## MCP

-## Installation
+FFF is an amazing way to reduce the time and tokens by giving your AI agent a bit of memory built-in to their file search tools. It makes your AI harness to find the code faster and spend less tokens by doing less roundtrips and reading less useless files.

-> [!NOTE]
-> Although we'll try to make sure to keep 100% backward compatibility, by using you should understand that silly bugs and breaking changes may happen.
-> And also we hope for your contributions and feedback to make this plugin ideal for everyone.
+![Chart showing the superiority of fff.nvim over builtin claude code tools](./chart.png)

-### Prerequisites
+You can install FFF as a dependency for your AI agent using a simple bash script:

-FFF.nvim requires:
+```bash
+curl -L https://dmtrkovalenko.dev/install-fff-mcp.sh | bash
+```

- Neovim 0.10.0+
- [Rustup](https://rustup.rs/) (we require nightly for building the native backend rustup will handle toolchain automatically)
+> The installation script is here [./install-mcp.sh](./install-mcp.sh) if you want to review it before running.
+
+It will print out the instructions on how to connect it to your `Claude Code`, `Codex`, `OpenCode`, etc. Once you have it connected just ask your agent to "use fff".
+Here is an example addition to `CLAUDE.md` that works perfectly:
+
+```sh
+# CLAUDE.md
+For any file search or grep in the current git indexed directory use fff tools
+```
+
+## Neovim guide
+
+Here is some demo on the linux repository (100k files, 8GB) but you better fill it yourself and see the magic

+#### Constraints
+
+There are a number of constraints you can use to refine your search in both grep and file search mode:
+
+- `git:modified` - show only modified files (one of `modified`, `staged`, `deleted`, `renamed`, `untracked`, `ignored`)
+- `test/` - any deeply nested children of any test/ dir
+- `!something` - exclude results matching something
+- `!test/`, `!git:modified` - combining with any other constraint works as negation
+- `./**/*.{rs,lua}` - any valid glob expression via [the fastest globbing library](https://github.com/dmtrKovalenko/zlob)
+
+For grep only:
+
+- `*.md`, `*.{c,h}` - extension filtering
+- `src/main.rs` - grep in a single file
+
+In addition to that, all constraints can be combined together like:
+
+```
+git:modified src/**/*.rs !src/**/mod.rs user controller
+```
+
+This will find all the files that qualify the constraints and:
+
+- match **both** user and controller (for file mode)
+- match "user controller" (for grep mode)

 Or manually open the log file at `~/.local/state/nvim/log/fff.log` (default location).
-
-#### Common Issues
-
-**File picker not initializing:**
-
- Ensure the Rust backend is compiled: `cargo build --release` in the plugin directory
- Check that your Neovim version is 0.10.0 or higher
-
-**Image previews not working:**
-
- Verify your terminal supports images (kitty, iTerm2, WezTerm, etc.)
- For terminals without native image support, install one of: `chafa`, `viu`, or `img2txt`
- If using snacks.nvim, ensure it's properly configured
-
-**Performance issues:**
-
- Adjust `max_threads` in configuration based on your system
- Reduce `preview.max_lines` and `preview.max_size` for large files
- Clear cache if it becomes too large: `:FFFClearCache all`
-
-**Files not being indexed:**
-
- Run `:FFFScan` to manually trigger a file scan
- Check that the `base_path` is correctly set
- Verify you have read permissions for the directory
-
-#### Debug Mode
-
-Enable debug mode to see scoring information and troubleshoot search results:
-
- Press `F2` while in the picker
- Run `:FFFDebug on` to enable permanently
- Set `debug.show_scores = true` in configuration

+    "## Which Tool Should I Use?\n",
+    "\n",
+    "- **grep**: DEFAULT tool. Searches file CONTENTS -- definitions, usage, patterns. Use when you have a specific name or pattern.\n",
+    "- **find_files**: Explores which files/modules exist for a topic. Use when you DON'T have a specific identifier or LOOKING FOR A FILE.\n",
+    "- **multi_grep**: OR logic across multiple patterns. Use for case variants (e.g. ['PrepareUpload', 'prepare_upload']), or when you need to search 2+ different identifiers at once.\n",
+    "\n",
+    "## Core Rules\n",
+    "\n",
+    "### 1. Search BARE IDENTIFIERS only\n",
+    "Grep matches single lines. Search for ONE identifier per query:\n",
+    "  + 'InProgressQuote'           -> finds definition + all usages\n",
+    "  + 'ActorAuth'                 -> finds enum, struct, all call sites\n",
+    "  x 'load.*metadata.*InProgressQuote' -> regex spanning multiple tokens, 0 results\n",
+    "  x 'ctx.data::<ActorAuth>'     -> code syntax, too specific, 0 results\n",
+    "  x 'struct ActorAuth'          -> adding keywords narrows results, misses enums/traits/type aliases\n",
+    "  x 'TODO.*#\\d+'               -> complex regex, use simple 'TODO' then filter visually\n",
+    "\n",
+    "### 2. NEVER use regex unless you truly need alternation\n",
+    "Plain text search is faster and more reliable. Regex patterns like `.*`, `\\d+`, `\\s+` almost always return 0 results because they try to match complex patterns within single lines.\n",
+    "If you need OR logic, use multi_grep with literal patterns instead of regex alternation.\n",
+    "\n",
+    "### 3. Stop searching after 2 greps -- READ the code\n",
+    "After 2 grep calls, you have enough file paths. Read the top result to understand the code.\n",
+    "Do NOT keep grepping with variations. More greps != better understanding.\n",
+    "\n",
+    "### 4. Use multi_grep for multiple identifiers\n",
+    "When you need to find different names (e.g. snake_case + PascalCase, or definition + usage patterns), use ONE multi_grep call instead of sequential greps:\n",
+    "  + multi_grep(['ActorAuth', 'PopulatedActorAuth', 'actor_auth'])\n",

+    "**Have a specific name?** -> grep the bare identifier.\n",
+    "**Need multiple name variants?** -> multi_grep with all variants in one call.\n",
+    "**Exploring a topic / finding files?** -> find_files.\n",
+    "**Got results?** -> Read the top file. Don't grep again.\n",
+    "\n",
+    "## Constraint Syntax\n",
+    "\n",

+search, but we do the file search really fff well.

-It comes with a dedicated rust backend runtime that keep tracks of the file
-index, your file access and modifications, git status, and provides a
-comprehensive typo-resistant fuzzy search experience.
+FFF is a tool for grepping, fuzzy file matching, globbing, and multigrepping
+with a strong focus on performance and useful search results. For humans -
+provides an unbelievable typo-resistant experience, for AI agents - implements
+the fastest file search with additional free memory suggesting the best search

- Works out of the box with no additional configuration
- Typo resistant fuzzy search <https://github.com/saghen/frizbee>
- Git status integration allowing to take advantage of last modified times within a worktree
- Separate file index maintained by a dedicated backend allows <10 milliseconds search time for 50k files codebase
- Display images in previews (for now requires snacks.nvim)
- Smart in a plenty of different ways hopefully helpful for your workflow
- This plugin initializes itself lazily by default
+FFF is an amazing way to reduce the time and tokens by giving your AI agent a
+bit of memory built-in to their file search tools. It makes your AI harness to
+find the code faster and spend less tokens by doing less roundtrips and reading
+less useless files.
+
+You can install FFF as a dependency for your AI agent using a simple bash
+script:
+
+>bash
+    curl -L https://dmtrkovalenko.dev/install-fff-mcp.sh | bash
+<


-INSTALLATION                                           *fff.nvim-installation*
+  The installation script is here ./install-mcp.sh <./install-mcp.sh> if you want
+  to review it before running.
+It will print out the instructions on how to connect it to your `Claude Code`,
+`Codex`, `OpenCode`, etc. Once you have it connected just ask your agent to
+"use fff". Here is an example addition to `CLAUDE.md` that works perfectly:
+
+>sh
+    # CLAUDE.md
+    For any file search or grep in the current git indexed directory use fff tools
+<


-  [!NOTE] Although we’ll try to make sure to keep 100% backward compatibility,
-  by using you should understand that silly bugs and breaking changes may happen.
-  And also we hope for your contributions and feedback to make this plugin ideal
-  for everyone.

 COMMANDS

 FFF.nvim provides several commands for interacting with the file picker:

- `:FFFFind [path|query]` - Open file picker. Optional: provide directory path or search query
 - `:FFFScan` - Manually trigger a rescan of files in the current directory
 - `:FFFRefreshGit` - Manually refresh git status for all files
 - `:FFFClearCache [all|frecency|files]` - Clear various caches

+CONSTRAINTS
+
+There are a number of constraints you can use to refine your search in both
+grep and file search mode:
+
+- `git:modified` - show only modified files (one of `modified`, `staged`, `deleted`, `renamed`, `untracked`, `ignored`)
+- `test/` - any deeply nested children of any test/ dir
+- `!something` - exclude results matching something
+- `!test/`, `!git:modified` - combining with any other constraint works as negation
+- `./**/*.{rs,lua}` - any valid glob expression via the fastest globbing library <https://github.com/dmtrKovalenko/zlob>
+
+For grep only:
+
+- `*.md`, `*.{c,h}` - extension filtering
+- `src/main.rs` - grep in a single file
+
+In addition to that, all constraints can be combined together like:
+
+>
+    git:modified src/**/*.rs !src/**/mod.rs user controller
+<
+
+This will find all the files that qualify the constraints and:
+
+- match **both** user and controller (for file mode)
+- match "user controller" (for grep mode)
+
+
 CROSS-MODE SUGGESTIONS

 When a search returns no results, FFF automatically queries the opposite search

-COMMON ISSUES
-
-**File picker not initializing:**
-
- Ensure the Rust backend is compiled: `cargo build --release` in the plugin directory
- Check that your Neovim version is 0.10.0 or higher
-
-**Image previews not working:**
-
- Verify your terminal supports images (kitty, iTerm2, WezTerm, etc.)
- For terminals without native image support, install one of: `chafa`, `viu`, or `img2txt`
- If using snacks.nvim, ensure it’s properly configured
-
-**Performance issues:**
-
- Adjust `max_threads` in configuration based on your system
- Reduce `preview.max_lines` and `preview.max_size` for large files
- Clear cache if it becomes too large: `:FFFClearCache all`
-
-**Files not being indexed:**
-
- Run `:FFFScan` to manually trigger a file scan
- Check that the `base_path` is correctly set
- Verify you have read permissions for the directory
-
-
-DEBUG MODE
-
-Enable debug mode to see scoring information and troubleshoot search results:
-
- Press `F2` while in the picker
- Run `:FFFDebug on` to enable permanently
- Set `debug.show_scores = true` in configuration
