Features

Unmarked = shipped. (partial) = partially implemented. (planned) = not yet started.

Search

  • Filename search — substring matching across millions of files.
  • Context-aware scoring — results ranked by path depth, recency, hidden/noise directory penalties, and open frequency.
  • Frequency tracking — files opened more often rank higher in future searches.
  • Glob search — pattern matching with * and ? wildcards.
  • Extension filter — filter by extension, comma-separated (pdf,docx,txt).
  • Type filter — filter by category: images, videos, audio, documents, code, archives, config, executables, fonts.
  • Language subsets — language-specific filters: rust, go, swift, typescript, javascript, python.
  • Recent files — query N most recently modified files in 0.19ms.
  • Size filter — min/max file size filtering.
  • Sort modes — sort by relevance (default), recent, size-desc, size-asc, or name.
  • Path filter — scope search to a subdirectory.
  • Hidden exclusion — skip files under dot-directories.
  • File/directory filter — show only files or only directories.
  • Count mode — return match count without listing results.
  • Open/Reveal — open first result or reveal in Finder.
  • Watch mode — real-time index updates from file system events.
  • Sub-millisecond queries — compressed index, ~26MB for 1.3M files.

Code Intelligence

  • Structural search — find functions, types, traits by name, not text grep.
  • Cross-project — search across all indexed projects at once.
  • Rust support — parses functions, structs, enums, traits, impls, consts, type aliases, modules via syn.
  • Go support — parses functions, structs, interfaces, methods, consts, vars via tree-sitter.
  • Project overview — languages, file count, LOC, module structure, key public types.
  • Compressed storage — .cidx snapshots survive restarts, load on demand.
  • AI integration — AI tools can search and understand code structure via MCP.
  • CLI — zero code index, search, overview, list, remove, symbols.

AI Assistant

  • LLM agent — conversational assistant with streaming responses and tool calling.
  • File search tools — agent queries your search index directly.
  • Code search tools — agent searches functions, types, traits across projects.
  • Markdown rendering — syntax-highlighted code blocks, links, lists in chat.
  • Thinking mode — see the assistant's reasoning process in real-time.
  • Tool call cards — visual indicators showing what the AI is doing.
  • Copy button — one-click copy on assistant messages.
  • Multi-provider — Anthropic (Claude), OpenAI-compatible endpoints.
  • Latest models — Claude Sonnet 4.6, Opus 4.6, Haiku 4.5, GPT-5, GPT-5 Mini, GPT-5 Nano.
  • MCP server — expose search and code intelligence to any AI tool or IDE.
  • Configurable — model, max tokens, thinking budget.
  • Embedded terminal — run commands without leaving the app.

File Management

  • Workspaces — multiple independent workspaces with Cmd+1-9 switching.
  • Per-workspace state — bookmarks, navigation history, and view state per workspace.
  • Create/rename/delete workspaces from the sidebar.
  • Split pane — drag between folders without juggling windows.
  • Sidebar — pinned/unpinned bookmarks, drives, workspace switcher.
  • Git status — modified/added/untracked counts on sidebar bookmark folders.
  • Command palette — context-ranked file search and actions (Cmd+K).
  • Quick Look — preview files with Space.
  • Multiple selection — operate on multiple files at once.
  • Inline rename — rename files in place.
  • Symlink display — broken links flagged.
  • Syntax highlighting — 28 languages via tree-sitter.
  • 6 native themes — light + dark variants.
  • Native Rust UI — GPUI, not Electron.
  • Keyboard-first — full shortcut system with Cmd+K palette.
  • Git status in file browser — staged, modified, untracked indicators per file.
  • Configurable columns — reorderable, persistent column layout.
  • Location column — search results auto-show parent path so you know where each file lives.
  • Search-aware toolbar — toolbar shows the search query when viewing results, not the previous folder name.
  • Typeahead navigation — jump to files by typing.
  • Natural sort — files sorted as humans expect (file2 before file10).
  • Todo lists — tasks with lists, tags, due dates, assignees in .todo files.

Sync & Backup

  • Fast copy — OS-native copy with APFS clonefile, sendfile, copy_file_range at ~874 MB/s.
  • Chunked transfer — files >100MB split into 4MB chunks, resume from last verified chunk.
  • Hash-on-copy — checksum computed during transfer, no second pass, ~653 MB/s verified.
  • Mirror mode — make destination identical to source, delete orphans.
  • Verify mode — post-sync checksum comparison with hash caching.
  • Exclude patterns — skip files by glob pattern.
  • Dry run — preview all changes without writing.
  • Permission preservation — optionally preserve directory permissions.
  • Progress tracking — real-time ETA, throughput, file counts.
  • Symlink handling — configurable follow or skip.
  • Backup templates — mac-essentials (Documents, Desktop, Pictures, etc.) and macos-developer (code, dotfiles, SSH keys).
  • Cloud exclusion — auto-exclude iCloud, Dropbox, Google Drive folders.
  • System exclusion — auto-exclude system and library folders.

Cloud Storage

  • Amazon S3 — s3://bucket/path via OpenDAL.
  • Backblaze B2 — b2://bucket/path via OpenDAL.
  • Google Cloud Storage — gs://bucket/path via OpenDAL.
  • Dropbox — dropbox://path via OpenDAL.
  • WebDAV — webdav://host/path via OpenDAL.

Cleanup & Dedup

36 categories across 8 groups for reclaiming disk space.
