Sorry, egrep should be used:

$ find .emacs.d/ -type f -name "*.el" -exec egrep -q "^[ ]*\([
]*require[ ]+'cl[ ]*\)" {} \; -print | egrep -v  '[/]tests?[/]'
.emacs.d/straight/repos/dash.el/dash.el
.emacs.d/straight/repos/dash.el/dev/examples.el
.emacs.d/straight/repos/stardiviner-sdcv.el/sdcv.el
.emacs.d/straight/repos/showtip/showtip.el
.emacs.d/straight/repos/unicode-escape.el/unicode-escape.el
