What is document chunking in RAG systems?

Chunking is the process of breaking large documents into smaller, manageable segments to ensure embedding models and LLMs can retrieve and process the most relevant information without losing context.

When should I use semantic chunking over fixed-size chunking?

Use semantic chunking for complex documents with thematic shifts where meaning is more important than character count. Fixed-size is better for simple, unstructured text where processing speed is a priority.

How do I measure if my chunking strategy is effective?

The skill provides an evaluation framework focusing on retrieval precision, recall, end-to-end accuracy, and processing latency to ensure your strategy meets performance requirements.

Does this skill support code and structured data?

Yes, it includes structure-aware strategies specifically designed to preserve the semantic boundaries of code functions, classes, Markdown sections, and data tables.

소개

This skill provides a comprehensive framework for breaking large documents into semantically meaningful segments, which is essential for building high-performance RAG systems and vector databases. It offers a tiered approach to document processing—ranging from basic fixed-size splitting to advanced semantic boundary detection and structure-aware chunking for code and Markdown. By utilizing this skill, developers can preserve critical context, enhance retrieval precision, and optimize embedding costs, ensuring Claude provides more accurate and relevant responses when interacting with large knowledge bases.
