-- Fast file pattern matching tool that works with any codebase size
+- Fast file pattern matching tool that uses fuzzy-first indexing and frecency ranking
 - Supports glob patterns like "**/*.js" or "src/**/*.ts"
-- Returns matching file paths sorted by modification time
+- Returns matching file paths prioritized by recent and relevant files
 - Use this tool when you need to find files by name patterns
 - When you are doing an open-ended search that may require multiple rounds of globbing and grepping, use the Task tool instead
 - You have the capability to call multiple tools in a single response. It is always better to speculatively perform multiple searches as a batch that are potentially useful.

-- Fast content search tool that works with any codebase size
-- Searches file contents using regular expressions
-- Supports full regex syntax (eg. "log.*Error", "function\s+\w+", etc.)
+- Fast content search tool that uses fuzzy-first indexing and frecency ranking
+- Searches file contents with plain text, regex, and typo-tolerant fuzzy fallback
+- Supports regex syntax (eg. "log.*Error", "function\s+\w+", etc.)
 - Filter files by pattern with the include parameter (eg. "*.js", "*.{ts,tsx}")
-- Returns file paths and line numbers with at least one match sorted by modification time
+- Returns file paths and line numbers, prioritizing likely definitions and high-signal results
+- Includes smart retries (query broadening and path suggestions) when exact matches fail
 - Use this tool when you need to find files containing specific patterns
-- If you need to identify/count the number of matches within files, use the Bash tool with `rg` (ripgrep) directly. Do NOT use `grep`.
 - When you are doing an open-ended search that may require multiple rounds of globbing and grepping, use the Task tool instead
