Title: File Path Pattern Matching Tool

Summary

This tool efficiently finds file paths matching glob patterns (e.g., `**/*.js`) within a codebase of any size. It returns alphabetically sorted, paginated results (50 matches per page, adjustable with the 'offset' parameter). It's recommended for file name pattern searches, while `grep` is better for symbol searches unless you have path information.
