Fast Asset Dependency

About this asset
Unlike full-project indexers, this tool works on-demand and scans only your project assets — giving you instant and accurate results without heavy caching.
Features
------------------
Find References To: See which assets your selected file depends on.
Find Referenced By: Discover which assets in your project reference the selected file.
Fast, Cache-Free: No heavy indexing; works directly on asset files.
Scope Control: Limit search to selected folders or scan entire Assets/.
Clear UI: Dependencies are shown with asset icons and colored labels.
From the publisher's Asset Store listing.
Technical details
How It Works
-----------
* References To: Uses AssetDatabase.GetDependencies to find outgoing links.
* Referenced By: Scans textual assets (.prefab, .unity, .mat, .anim, .controller, .asset, etc.) and finds where the GUID is used.
This dual approach is fast and avoids the overhead of building a permanent dependency cache.
Limitations
-----------
* Only direct references are shown. (Transitive chains require recursive scan for References To.)
* Works on YAML/text-based assets. Binary-only references may not be detected.
* String-based loads (Resources.Load("name"), Addressables keys/labels) are not detected.
* Deleted or broken GUIDs in YAML will still appear as broken links.
