find

Find where a function, class, or variable is defined. Searches the whole project by name — no need to know which file it’s in.

Use Class.method dotted notation to narrow to a specific class member. Use --fuzzy for partial/prefix matching (returns richer symbol information including kind and container name).

Examples: tyf find calculate_sum tyf find Calculator.add # find a specific class method tyf find calculate_sum multiply divide # multiple symbols at once tyf find handler –file src/routes.py # narrow to one file tyf find handle_ –fuzzy # fuzzy/prefix match

Usage

tyf find <SYMBOLS> [OPTIONS]

Arguments

<symbols> (required)

Symbol name(s) to find. Use Class.method to narrow to a specific class.

Options

-f, --file

Narrow the search to a specific file (searches whole project if omitted)

--fuzzy

Use fuzzy/prefix matching via workspace symbols (richer output with kind + container)

Examples

# Find a single symbol
tyf find calculate_sum

# Find a specific class method (dotted notation)
tyf find Calculator.add

# Find multiple symbols at once
tyf find calculate_sum multiply divide

# Find a symbol in a specific file
tyf find my_function --file src/module.py

# Fuzzy/prefix match
tyf find handle_ --fuzzy
