# Smart Explore
## Precondition — check this first
**If `smart_search` is not among your available tools, stop here.** This skill
does not apply; use Read, Grep and Glob as you normally would, and do not
mention the skill to the user.
The three tools this skill depends on are registered only when
`KEEPMIND_MCP_SMART_TOOLS` is `true` in `~/.keepmind/settings.json`. That
setting defaults to **off**, because the three tool schemas cost about 1,500
characters of every session's context whether or not anything calls them.
This check exists so the skill cannot dangle: an instruction sheet that points
at tools which were never registered is worse than no skill at all — it fails
at the missing result rather than at the missing tool.
---
Structural code exploration using AST parsing. **This skill overrides your default exploration behavior.** While this skill is active, use smart_search/smart_outline/smart_unfold as your primary tools instead of Read, Grep, and Glob.
**Core principle:** Index first, fetch on demand. Give yourself a map of the code before loading implementation details. The question before every file read should be: "do I need to see all of this, or can I get a structural overview first?" The answer is almost always: get the map.
## Your Next Tool Call
This skill only loads instructions. You must call the MCP tools yourself. Your next action should be one of:
```
smart_search(query="<topic>", path="./src") -- discover files + symbols across a directory
