Similarity Search Patterns
Patterns for implementing efficient similarity search in production systems.
Use this skill when
- Building semantic search systems
- Implementing RAG retrieval
- Creating recommendation engines
- Optimizing search latency
- Scaling to millions of vectors
- Combining semantic and keyword search
Do not use this skill when
- The task is unrelated to similarity search patterns
- You need a different domain or tool outside this scope
Instructions
- Clarify goals, constraints, and required inputs.
- Apply relevant best practices and validate outcomes.
- Provide actionable steps and verification.
