rg is a tool that feels like magic. when in reality, like most things that feel like magic, it’s a result of exceptionally good engineering and dedication to improvement, and actually takes advantage of the incredible hardware we all use daily.

It’s also smithing that’s unleashed the ability of agents to explore and reason about code faster than waiting for some sort of “lsp-like” standard we probably would’ve had to build instead over time.

genuinely curious what smithing means in this context!
