It maps each kind of question (exact string, symbol lookup, conceptual 'how does X work', dependency/blast-radius, pre-edit briefing) to the right tool so you do not default to semantic search for everything.

# RAG Workflow Guide ## Search Tool Priority Use the simplest tool that answers the question. Escalate only when needed: | Priority | Tool | Use when | Speed | | -------- | -------------------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | ------- | | 1 | **Grep/Glob** | Exact strings, file names, known symbols | Instant | | 2 | **find_symbol** | You know a function/class/type NAME and want its exact definition and location | Fast | | 3 | **hybrid_search** | You need to find code and don't know the exact file or symbol name — conceptual questions ("how does X work") | Medium | | 4 | **search_graph** | Dependency structure: what imports a file, what a change would break (blast radius), how modules connect | Medium | | 5 | **context_briefing** | Before changes that span multiple files, touch shared services/exports, or where prior patterns/ADRs could affect th
