Installation Guide
How to use morph-search on Cursor
AI-first code editor with Composer
Prerequisites
Before installing skills in Cursor, ensure your development environment meets these requirements:
- ›Cursor installed and configured on your machine
- ›Node.js 16+ with npm — verify with
node --version - ›Active project directory where you want to add
morph-search
Run the install command
Execute the skills CLI command in your project's root directory to begin installation:
Fetches morph-search from parcadei/continuous-claude-v3 and configures it for Cursor.
Select Cursor when prompted
The CLI shows a list of agents. Use arrow keys and space to select Cursor:
Verify installation
Confirm successful installation by checking the skill directory location:
Restart Cursor to activate morph-search. Access via /morph-search in your agent's command palette.
Security Notice
We perform automated surface-level scans (Gen AI Scanner, Socket, Snyk) during installation. These checks detect common vulnerabilities but do not guarantee complete security. Always review skill source code and verify the publisher's reputation before production use.
Skills execute code in your environment. Always review source, verify the publisher, and test in isolation before production.

Morph Codebase Search
Fast, AI-powered codebase search using WarpGrep. 20x faster than traditional grep.
When to Use
- Search codebase for patterns, function names, variables
- Find code across large codebases quickly
- Edit files programmatically
Usage
Search for code patterns
uv run python -m runtime.harness scripts/mcp/morph_search.py \
--search "authentication" --path "."
Search with regex
uv run python -m runtime.harness scripts/mcp/morph_search.py \
--search "def.*login" --path "./src"
Edit a file
uv run python -m runtime.harness scripts/mcp/morph_search.py \
--edit "/path/to/file.py" --content "new content"
Parameters
| Parameter | Description |
|---|---|
--search |
Search query/pattern |
--path |
Directory to search (default: .) |
--edit |
File path to edit |
--content |
New content for file (use with --edit) |
Examples
# Find all async functions
uv run python -m runtime.harness scripts/mcp/morph_search.py \
--search "async def" --path "./src"
# Search for imports
uv run python -m runtime.harness scripts/mcp/morph_search.py \
--search "from fastapi import" --path "."
vs ast-grep
| Tool | Best For |
|---|---|
| morph/warpgrep | Fast text/regex search (20x faster) |
| ast-grep | Structural code search (understands syntax) |
MCP Server Required
