It is really good at grep and will make multiple grep calls in parallel.

And when I open it in the parent directory of a bunch of repos in our codebase, it can very quickly trace data flow through a bunch of different services. It will tell me all the files the data goes through.

It's context window is "only" 200k tokens. When it gets near 200k, it compresses the conversation and starts a new conversation..... which mostly works but sometimes it has a bit of amnesia if you have a really long running conversation on something.

How does that work? Multiple agents grepping simultaneously?

When other models would grep, then read results, then use search, then read results, then read 100 lines from a file, then read results, Composer 1 is trained to grep AND search AND read in one round trip It may read 15 files, and then make small edits in all 15 files at once

Presumably if it knows it needs to perform multiple searches in order to gather information (e.g. searching for redundant implementations of an algorithm, plus calls to the codebase's canonical implementation) it should be able to run those searches in parallel grep calls.

Probably something closer to ripgrep, if not actually ripgrep.
