- description:
- Prefer semantic symbol tools for precise navigation and refactoring. Use vscode_listCodeUsages and vscode_renameSymbol instead of grep-style text search when changing code symbols.
Skill: vscode-symbol-tools
When to apply
- User asks to rename a function, variable, class, method, or type.
- User asks where a symbol is used, referenced, or implemented.
- Refactoring needs high precision across files.
Tool policy
- First choice for usages:
vscode_listCodeUsages. - First choice for rename:
vscode_renameSymbol. - Do not use
grep/text search for symbol refactors unless the symbol tool is unavailable.
Required workflow
- Locate one real occurrence of the symbol in a file.
- Use
vscode_listCodeUsagesto inspect impact before edits. - Use
vscode_renameSymbolto apply semantic rename. - Run tests/lint relevant to changed scope when available.
Example requests
Use vscode_renameSymbol and rename fib to fibonacci.Use vscode_listCodeUsages to find all references of thermalConductivity.
Notes
- Symbol tools depend on language server support.
- If rename cannot be resolved semantically, report why and fall back carefully.
