[symbols]

Queries symbols with text, kind, project, and export filters.

Why this tool exists

JS/TS names repeat across packages, files, exports, type/value spaces, and generated declarations.

How it helps the agent

Symbol tools turn fuzzy names and cursor positions into stable identities for references, callers, exports, and refactors.
