name: vector-embed description: Generate embeddings via npx ruvector@0.2.25 embed text (ONNX all-MiniLM-L6-v2, 384-dim), normalize, and store in HNSW index argument-hint: "<text-or-file>" allowed-tools: Bash Read mcp__claude-flow__memory_store mcp__claude-flow__memory_search

Vector Embed

Generate and store vector embeddings using the ruvector npm package.

When to use

Use this skill to embed text, code, or documents into 384-dimensional vectors for semantic search, similarity comparison, or clustering. ruvector uses ONNX all-MiniLM-L6-v2 with HNSW indexing (52,000+ inserts/sec, ~0.045ms search).

Steps

1. Ensure ruvector@0.2.25 is available:

   npm ls ruvector 2>/dev/null | grep '0.2.25' || npm install ruvector@0.2.25
   

   If embed text later reports ONNX WASM files not bundled, also run:

   npm install ruvector-onnx-embeddings-wasm
   

2. Embed the input (use the text subcommand, with text as a positional arg):
   • Single string: npx -y ruvector@0.2.25 embed text "your text here"
   • With output file: npx -y ruvector@0.2.25 embed text "your text here" -o vec.json
   • For a file: read its content via the Read tool, then pass it as the positional argument.
   • For batch: loop over files in shell — ruvector@0.2.25 has no built-in --batch/--glob flags.
3. Adaptive (LoRA) variant: npx -y ruvector@0.2.25 embed text "..." --adaptive --domain code
4. Confirm — report vector dimension (384), norm, and any output path written.
5. Store metadata in AgentDB if needed: mcp__claude-flow__memory_store({ key: "embed-SOURCE", value: "VECTOR_METADATA", namespace: "vector-patterns" })

MCP alternative

Register the MCP server once with the pinned version:

claude mcp add ruvector -- npx -y ruvector@0.2.25 mcp start

Then call MCP tools directly: hooks_rag_context (semantic context), brain_search (collective brain), hooks_ast_analyze, hooks_route.

Caveats

• The embed --batch --glob and embed --file flags do not exist in ruvector@0.2.25; only embed text <text> is supported. Read files yourself and call embed text per file.
• ONNX runtime is not bundled by default. If embedding fails, install ruvector-onnx-embeddings-wasm or run npx -y ruvector@0.2.25 doctor to diagnose.
