Does this skill support local embedding models?

Yes, it includes specialized templates for implementing local embedding pipelines using Sentence Transformers and BGE-style models.

How can I reduce vector database costs?

You can utilize Matryoshka embeddings (supported by OpenAI) to reduce vector dimensions from 3072 down to 512 with minimal impact on retrieval quality.

How do I measure if my embedding strategy is actually working?

The skill provides evaluation scripts to calculate Precision@K and Recall@K, allowing you to quantitatively compare different models and chunking configurations.

What is the best chunking strategy for long documents?

Recursive character splitting is generally best for maintaining context, while semantic sectioning is preferred for well-structured documents like Markdown with headers.

Which embedding model should I choose for my project?

Choice depends on your needs: text-embedding-3-large offers high accuracy, voyage-2 is excellent for code/legal text, and BGE models are ideal for open-source local deployments.

Acerca de

This skill provides a comprehensive framework for implementing high-quality vector search within LLM applications. It guides developers through the critical decisions of selecting embedding models—such as OpenAI, Voyage, or local BGE models—and implementing efficient chunking strategies like token-based, semantic, or recursive splitting. By providing production-ready templates for both API-based and local embedding pipelines, it helps developers maximize retrieval accuracy, optimize vector storage costs, and handle domain-specific content like code or legal documents.
