# Smart Explore

Find your way through unfamiliar code without reading every file

## What this does

You open a project you didn't write and want to know what's in it before committing to whole files. This skill looks at the structure of the code instead of the raw text, so you can find functions and see how things fit together without loading everything. Reach for it whenever you would otherwise read a big file end to end just to locate one part.

### Top 3 things it does for you

- Find where a function lives
- See a file's structure without reading the whole thing
- Get oriented in a codebase you don't yet know

A scan is named by the exact content it read, not by a version number. A different version is a different artifact, and nothing here applies to a version AIR has not scanned.

## About Smart Explore

Use this instead of reading full files when you need to understand how code is put together, track down a particular function, or explore a codebase you do not yet know.

It searches the structure of code rather than its raw text, so you find what you are after without loading everything along the way. Exploration stays light on tokens and focused on the part you came for.

## Questions

### Is Smart Explore safe to install?

AIR scanned this exact version of Smart Explore and flagged nothing. AIR's verdict: safe. The verdict is named by the content that was read, at commit aedfe5b6d908, so it cannot drift onto a version nobody scanned. The full report is at https://airmarket.ai/security/smart-explore.

### How do I install Smart Explore?

Open https://airmarket.ai/app/smart-explore on Air Market and use the install action: Air Market hands Claude a prompt naming this exact skill, and Claude sets it up. Source, pinned to the exact commit this listing describes: https://github.com/thedotmack/claude-mem/tree/aedfe5b6d908bf28ded199d7e3d6c031d9639652/plugin/skills/smart-explore. Install from that link, not the branch.
