Similarity Search Patterns

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.
• If detailed examples are required, open resources/implementation-playbook.md.

Resources

• resources/implementation-playbook.md for detailed patterns and examples.

Limitations

• Use this skill only when the task clearly matches the scope described above.
• Do not treat the output as a substitute for environment-specific validation, testing, or expert review.
• Stop and ask for clarification if required inputs, permissions, safety boundaries, or success criteria are missing.
