What's New

Added

  • File Discovery Performance Guidance - Added preference order to AGENTS.md:

    1. git ls-files - Instant, git-tracked files only
    2. fd - Fast (~10x), respects .gitignore
    3. rg --files - Fast (~10x), respects .gitignore
    4. mcp_glob - Fallback when bash unavailable
  • Automatic fd/ripgrep Installation - New setup_file_discovery_tools() in setup.sh:

    • Detects missing tools
    • Offers installation via detected package manager
    • Handles Debian/Ubuntu fd-find naming
    • Provides manual installation instructions
  • README Documentation - Added File Discovery Tools section with comparison table

Why This Matters

The mcp_glob tool can be CPU-intensive on large codebases. These faster alternatives (fd, ripgrep) provide ~10x performance improvement for file discovery operations.
