claude-code - 💡(How to fix) Fix [Bug] File search with @** wildcard pattern returns no results for existing files [2 comments, 2 participants]

TL;DR

Check the search query syntax and file path to ensure accuracy, as the search query @**/SomeFile.cs may not be correctly formatted.

Guidance

• Verify that the file SomeFile.cs exists in the expected directory and that the directory is included in the search scope.
• Check the search query syntax to ensure that the @**/ prefix is correctly used to search for files recursively.
• Test a simpler search query, such as SomeFile.cs, to see if the issue is specific to the recursive search syntax.
• Ensure that the file system and search indices are up-to-date and not corrupted.

Notes

The issue may be related to the specific search query syntax or the file system configuration, but without more information, it's difficult to provide a more specific solution.

Recommendation

Apply workaround: Test alternative search queries and verify file system configuration to identify the root cause of the issue.
