Which vector databases does this skill support?

The skill provides implementation patterns for major providers including Pinecone, Weaviate, Milvus, Chroma, Qdrant, and FAISS.

How does this skill help reduce AI hallucinations?

By implementing strict grounding prompts and retrieval-based context, it forces the AI to answer based on provided documents rather than its internal training data.

What is the primary benefit of RAG implementation?

RAG (Retrieval-Augmented Generation) provides LLMs with specific, retrieved facts from external data sources to ensure responses are accurate, current, and grounded in your specific data.

Can I implement hybrid search with this skill?

Yes, the skill includes specific patterns for combining semantic (dense) retrieval with keyword-based (sparse) retrieval to improve search relevance.

Data Science & ML

Builds robust Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) systems using vector databases and semantic search to ground AI responses in custom knowledge.

About

The RAG Implementation skill empowers developers to bridge the gap between Large Language Models and proprietary data by providing specialized patterns for Retrieval-Augmented Generation. It offers a comprehensive toolkit for managing the entire RAG lifecycle, from document chunking and embedding generation to advanced retrieval strategies like hybrid search and reranking. Whether you are building a documentation assistant, a research tool, or a factual Q&A system, this skill provides the architectural patterns needed to reduce hallucinations and ensure AI responses are grounded in verifiable, domain-specific sources.
