# Tag-Based Search

## Instructions

### Tag system

**@FEAT:feature-name** - Feature grouping
**@COMP:component-name** - Component type
**@TYPE:category** - Code category

### Usage

Add in comments:
```{{LANG}}
# @FEAT:{{feature-name}} @COMP:{{component}} @TYPE:{{type}}
class {{ClassName}}:
    pass
```

Search with grep:
```bash
grep -r "@FEAT:{{feature-name}}" {{src_directory}}/
```

## Example

<!-- CUSTOMIZE: Replace with {{PROJECT_NAME}} domain examples -->

```{{LANG}}
# @FEAT:user-auth @COMP:service @TYPE:core
class AuthenticationService:
    '''Handles user authentication'''
    pass

# @FEAT:user-auth @COMP:validator @TYPE:utility
def validate_credentials(username, password):
    return username and password
```

## Multi-Language Examples

### Python
```python
# @FEAT:user-auth @COMP:service @TYPE:core
class AuthenticationService:
    '''Handles user authentication'''

    # @FEAT:user-auth @COMP:service @TYPE:core
    def authenticate(self, username, password):
        pass

# @FEAT:user-auth @COMP:validator @TYPE:utility
def validate_password_strength(password):
    return len(password) >= 8
```

### JavaScript/TypeScript
```javascript
// @FEAT:user-auth @COMP:service @TYPE:core
class AuthenticationService {
    /**
     * Handles user authentication
     */

    // @FEAT:user-auth @COMP:service @TYPE:core
    authenticate(username, password) {
        // ...
    }
}

// @FEAT:user-auth @COMP:validator @TYPE:utility
function validatePasswordStrength(password) {
    return password.length >= 8;
}
```

### Go
```go
// @FEAT:user-auth @COMP:service @TYPE:core
// AuthenticationService handles user authentication
type AuthenticationService struct{}

// @FEAT:user-auth @COMP:service @TYPE:core
// Authenticate validates user credentials
func (s *AuthenticationService) Authenticate(username, password string) bool {
    // ...
    return false
}

// @FEAT:user-auth @COMP:validator @TYPE:utility
// ValidatePasswordStrength checks password requirements
func ValidatePasswordStrength(password string) bool {
    return len(password) >= 8
}
```

### Java
```java
// @FEAT:user-auth @COMP:service @TYPE:core
/**
 * Handles user authentication
 */
public class AuthenticationService {

    // @FEAT:user-auth @COMP:service @TYPE:core
    public boolean authenticate(String username, String password) {
        // ...
        return false;
    }
}

// @FEAT:user-auth @COMP:validator @TYPE:utility
/**
 * Validates password strength
 */
public class PasswordValidator {
    public static boolean validateStrength(String password) {
        return password.length() >= 8;
    }
}
```

## Search Strategies

### Find all code for a feature
```bash
# Find everything related to user-auth
grep -r "@FEAT:user-auth" src/

# With line numbers
grep -rn "@FEAT:user-auth" src/

# Show file names only
grep -rl "@FEAT:user-auth" src/
```

### Find specific component type
```bash
# Find all services
grep -r "@COMP:service" src/

# Find all validators
grep -r "@COMP:validator" src/
```

### Find by code category
```bash
# Find all core logic
grep -r "@TYPE:core" src/

# Find all integrations
grep -r "@TYPE:integration" src/
```

### Combined searches
```bash
# Find core services for user-auth
grep -r "@FEAT:user-auth" src/ | grep "@COMP:service" | grep "@TYPE:core"

# Find all validation code across features
grep -r "@TYPE:validation" src/
```

### Using Claude Code's Grep tool
```
Pattern: "@FEAT:user-auth"
Output mode: files_with_matches
Path: src/

# Then drill down:
Pattern: "@FEAT:user-auth.*@COMP:service"
Output mode: content
```

## Tag Maintenance

### When to add tags

**Always tag:**
- New classes/functions
- Core business logic
- Integration points
- Validation logic

**Optional (but recommended):**
- Utility functions
- Configuration files
- Test files

### Tag consistency rules

1. **One tag per line** (easier to grep)
   ```python
   # ✅ Good
   # @FEAT:user-auth @COMP:service @TYPE:core

   # ❌ Avoid
   # @FEAT:user-auth
   # @COMP:service
   # @TYPE:core
   ```

2. **Feature names lowercase with hyphens**
   ```
   ✅ @FEAT:user-auth
   ❌ @FEAT:UserAuth
   ❌ @FEAT:user_auth
   ```

3. **Component names match architecture**
   ```
   ✅ @COMP:service (if you use "services" in your architecture)
   ❌ @COMP:manager (if not a standard component type)
   ```

### Updating tags

When refactoring:
- Update @FEAT if feature name changes
- Update @COMP if component type changes
- Keep @TYPE consistent with new purpose
