code_get

code_get reads a named symbol from the indexed graph. Always prefer this over reading entire files — it returns exactly what’s needed with zero noise.

Usage

code_get(name="UserService")
code_get(name="processPayment", section="signature")

Parameters

Parameter	Type	Default	Description
name	string	required	Symbol name
section	"full" | "signature" | "body"	"full"	Which part to return

Sections

• full — complete function including signature and body
• signature — first line only (fast check of parameters/return type)
• body — body only, skipping the signature

Token savings

Instead of	Use
Read entire 800-line file	code_get("functionName") — returns 40 lines
Check if a function takes the right params	code_get("fn", section="signature") — returns 1 line

80–98% fewer tokens compared to reading whole files.
