Does it include advanced search patterns?

Yes, it covers sophisticated patterns such as hybrid search (combining dense and sparse retrieval), multi-query expansion, and contextual compression.

Can I use this for source citations?

Yes, the skill provides specific prompt engineering templates and retrieval logic to ensure the system returns and cites source documents for transparency.

What vector databases does this skill support?

The skill provides implementation guidance for several leading vector stores including Pinecone, Weaviate, Milvus, Chroma, Qdrant, and FAISS.

What chunking strategies are included?

The skill includes patterns for recursive character splitting, token-based splitting, semantic chunking, and markdown header-aware splitting to preserve document context.

How does this skill help reduce LLM hallucinations?

It implements Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) which grounds LLM responses in specific, retrieved context from your own documents, ensuring the AI only answers based on provided facts.
