1. Tool Selection Guidelines (+2)
1. Tool Selection Guidelines
| Task | Tool | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Find files by name | fd | Fast, intuitive syntax |
| Find files by content | rg | Faster than grep, better defaults |
| View files | bat | Syntax highlighting, line numbers |
| List files | exa | Icons, git status, tree view |
| Navigate directories | zoxide | Learns your patterns |
| Interactive selection | fzf | Fuzzy matching, preview |
| Process JSON | jq | Powerful, composable |
2. Performance Tips
# Use fd instead of find
fd "pattern" # Instead of: find . -name "*pattern*"
# Use rg instead of grep
rg "pattern" # Instead of: grep -r "pattern" .
# Limit search depth
fd --max-depth 3
rg --max-depth 3
# Exclude directories
fd -E node_modules -E .git
rg --glob '!node_modules'
3. Shell Startup Optimization
# Lazy load slow tools
nvm() {
unset -f nvm
[ -s "$NVM_DIR/nvm.sh" ] && source "$NVM_DIR/nvm.sh"
nvm "$@"
}
# Cache expensive operations
_update_ps1_cache() {
PS1_CACHE="$(expensive_command)"
}
