Story

When an agent reasons about a third-party package, types and docs often aren't enough. Pipe opensrc into rg (rg "parse" $(opensrc path zod)) to search the package's actual implementation on demand, fetching and caching on first use. Far lighter than vendoring or cloning a dependency just so the agent can read how it really works.
