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.

Memory-First Protocol
Retrieve prior API design decisions, database schema choices, and error handling patterns. Cache API response templates for consistent error formatting.
# Check for prior backend/API context before starting
python3 execution/memory_manager.py auto --query "API design patterns and architecture decisions for Similarity Search Patterns"
Storing Results
After completing work, store backend/API decisions for future sessions:
python3 execution/memory_manager.py store \
--content "API architecture: REST with HATEOAS, JWT auth, rate limiting at 100 req/min per tenant" \
--type decision --project <project> \
--tags similarity-search-patterns backend
Multi-Agent Collaboration
Share API contract changes with frontend agents so they update their client code, and with QA agents for test coverage.
python3 execution/cross_agent_context.py store \
--agent "<your-agent>" \
--action "Implemented API endpoints — 5 new routes with OpenAPI spec and integration tests" \
--project <project>
Agent Team: Code Review
After implementation, dispatch code_review_team for two-stage review (spec compliance + code quality) before merging.
