To save people the digging, here's the git repo:

https://github.com/dmtrKovalenko/fff.nvim

"FFF stands for freakin fast fuzzy file finder (pick 3) and it is an opinionated fuzzy file picker for your AI agent and Neovim. Just for file search, but we do the file search really fff well.

FFF is a tool for grepping, fuzzy file matching, globbing, and multigrepping with a strong focus on performance and useful search results. For humans - provides an unbelievable typo-resistant experience, for AI agents - implements the fastest file search with additional free memory suggesting the best search results based on various factors like frecency, git status, file size, definition matches, and more."

So the repo builds:

- C library

- neovim plugin

- MCP server

But not a plain binary, which is the main way ripgrep is directly used (...at least by humans), and compared with.

because it is meant to be used by the long running sdk not one shot search (this is where all the optimizations are coming from)
