I'm testing some new ag.el features against the Emacs git repo (anything else searches too quickly). Fun fact: 49,160 defun forms in Emacs!

I've realised that AGENTS.md / CLAUDE.md solve two distinct problems:
* It tells the LLM the conventions of the project, avoiding follow-up prompts.
* It precomputes a summary of the project, saving a bunch of searches at the start of a session.
Which programming languages are the easiest/hardest to google?
Go (a common word) and Rust (also a computer game) can both be tricky. Yet I've not seen 'rubylang' used to help Ruby searches.
Perhaps a novel word (Kotlin) or a misspelling (Perl) is a better choice for new languages?
It was amazingly easy to add Tramp support to deadgrep.el. A single function change and suddenly you can run searches on remote machines too!
