🧭 smart_glob

High-performance file discovery tool for OpenCode with AI-friendly output and rich filters.

Why this tool exists

smart_glob solves discovery issues in large codebases:

• ❌ Slow recursive search and noisy output
• ❌ Poor filtering by date/size/depth
• ❌ Hard-to-parse results for agents
• ❌ Inconsistent behavior across OS environments

✅ smart_glob provides:

• Fast recursive globbing with optional fastMode
• Depth, date, size, hidden-file, and directory-only filters
• Multiple output formats (rich, compact, json)
• Better diagnostics and suggestions for invalid paths
• Cross-platform behavior (Windows/macOS/Linux)

File included

• smart_glob.ts — production tool implementation

Install in OpenCode

1. Copy smart_glob.ts to your OpenCode tools folder:

# Example
cp smart_glob.ts ~/.config/opencode/tools/

2. Enable it in opencode.json:

{
  "tools": {
    "smart_glob": true
  }
}

3. Restart OpenCode.

Force AI to use only smart tools

To disable default discovery/edit/search tools:

{
  "tools": {
    "smart_edit": true,
    "smart_grep": true,
    "smart_glob": true,

    "edit": false,
    "write": false,
    "grep": false,
    "glob": false
  }
}

Recommended use

• Fast project indexing
• Finding files by extension/pattern/date/size
• Agent-safe discovery in large monorepos
