hybrid-search-implementation
Combine vector and keyword search for improved retrieval. Use when implementing RAG systems, building search engines, or when neither approach alone provides sufficient recall.
Best use case
hybrid-search-implementation is best used when you need a repeatable AI agent workflow instead of a one-off prompt.
Combine vector and keyword search for improved retrieval. Use when implementing RAG systems, building search engines, or when neither approach alone provides sufficient recall.
Teams using hybrid-search-implementation should expect a more consistent output, faster repeated execution, less prompt rewriting.
When to use this skill
- You want a reusable workflow that can be run more than once with consistent structure.
When not to use this skill
- You only need a quick one-off answer and do not need a reusable workflow.
- You cannot install or maintain the underlying files, dependencies, or repository context.

# Hybrid Search Implementation Patterns for combining vector similarity and keyword-based search. ## Use this skill when - Building RAG systems with improved recall - Combining semantic understanding with exact matching - Handling queries with specific terms (names, codes) - Improving search for domain-specific vocabulary - When pure vector search misses keyword matches ## Do not use this skill when - The task is unrelated to hybrid search implementation - 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`. ## Resources - `resources/implementation-playbook.md` for detailed patterns and examples.
