I also like using Claude Code as a simple version of RAG.
It knows how to browse and grep files. I just dump a bunch of relevant data into a folder and let Claude Code figure out what is relevant.
It’s decent at searching through local docs for libraries, so I figured it would be decent at searching through other types of files as well, and it is!
This is an interesting application, makes me wonder how much of the "secret sauce" in Claude Code is truly coding-oriented and how much is just superior agentic logic in general.
