## TypeScript API Reference
### Create Embeddings Service
```typescript
import { createEmbeddingsService } from 'clodds/embeddings';
const embeddings = createEmbeddingsService({
// Provider
provider: 'openai', // 'openai' | 'voyage' | 'local' | 'cohere'
apiKey: process.env.OPENAI_API_KEY,
// Model
model: 'text-embedding-3-small',
dimensions: 1536,
// Caching
cache: true,
cacheBackend: 'sqlite',
cachePath: './embeddings-cache.db',
// Batching
batchSize: 100,
maxConcurrent: 5,
});
```
### Generate Embeddings
```typescript
// Single text
const embedding = await embeddings.embed('Hello world');
console.log(`Dimensions: ${embedding.length}`);
// Multiple texts (batched)
const vectors = await embeddings.embedBatch([
'First document',
'Second document',
'Third document',
]);
```
### Semantic Search
```typescript
// Search against stored vectors
const results = await embeddings.search({
query: 'trading strategies',
collection: 'documents',
limit: 10,
threshold: 0.7,
});
for (const result of results) {
console.log(`${result.text} (score: ${result.score})`);
}
```
### Similarity
```typescript
// Compare two texts
const score = await embeddings.similarity(
'The cat sat on the mat',
'A feline rested on the rug'
);
console.log(`Similarity: ${score}`); // 0.0 - 1.0
```
### Store Vectors
```typescript
// Store embedding with metadata
await embeddings.store({
collection: 'documents',
id: 'doc-1',
text: 'Original text',
embedding: vector,
metadata: {
source: 'wiki',
date: '2024-01-01',
},
});
// Store batch
await embeddings.storeBatch({
collection: 'documents',
items: [
{ id: 'doc-1', text: 'First doc' },
{ id: 'doc-2', text: 'Second doc' },
],
});
```
### Cache Management
```typescript
// Get cache stats
const stats = await embeddings.getCacheStats();
console.log(`Cached: ${stats.count} embeddings`);
console.log(`Size: ${stats.sizeMB} MB`);
console.log(`Hit rate: ${stats.hitRate}%`);
// Clear cache
await embeddings.clearCache();
// Clear specific entries
await embeddings.clearCache({ olderThan: '7d' });
```
### Provider Configuration
```typescript
// Switch provider
embeddings.setProvider('voyage', {
apiKey: process.env.VOYAGE_API_KEY,
model: 'voyage-large-2',
});
// Use local model (Transformers.js)
// No API key required - runs locally via @xenova/transformers
embeddings.setProvider('local', {
model: 'Xenova/all-MiniLM-L6-v2', // 384 dimensions
});
```

## Providers
| Provider | Models | Quality | Speed | Cost |
|----------|--------|---------|-------|------|
| **OpenAI** | text-embedding-3-small/large | Excellent | Fast | $0.02/1M |
| **Voyage** | voyage-large-2 | Excellent | Fast | $0.02/1M |
| **Cohere** | embed-english-v3 | Good | Fast | $0.10/1M |
| **Local (Transformers.js)** | Xenova/all-MiniLM-L6-v2 | Good | Medium | Free |
---
## Models
### OpenAI
| Model | Dimensions | Best For |
|-------|------------|----------|
| `text-embedding-3-small` | 1536 | General use |
| `text-embedding-3-large` | 3072 | High accuracy |
### Voyage
| Model | Dimensions | Best For |
|-------|------------|----------|
| `voyage-large-2` | 1024 | General use |
| `voyage-code-2` | 1536 | Code search |
---
## Use Cases
### Semantic Memory Search
```typescript
// Store user memories
await embeddings.store({
collection: 'memories',
id: 'mem-1',
text: 'User prefers conservative trading',
});
// Search memories
const relevant = await embeddings.search({
query: 'what is user risk preference',
collection: 'memories',
limit: 5,
});
```
### Document Similarity
```typescript
// Find similar documents
const similar = await embeddings.findSimilar({
text: 'How to trade options',
collection: 'docs',
limit: 5,
});
```

## Best Practices
1. **Use caching** — Avoid redundant API calls
2. **Batch requests** — More efficient than single calls
3. **Choose dimensions wisely** — Balance quality vs storage
4. **Monitor costs** — Embeddings can add up
5. **Local for development** — Use local model to save costs

skill-development
IncludedComprehensive meta-skill for creating, managing, validating, auditing, and distributing Claude Code skills and slash commands (unified in v2.1.3+). Provides skill templates, creation workflows, validation patterns, audit checklists, naming conventions, YAML frontmatter guidance, progressive disclosure examples, and best practices lookup. Use when creating new skills, validating existing skills, auditing skill quality, understanding skill architecture, needing skill templates, learning about YAML frontmatter requirements, progressive disclosure patterns, tool restrictions (allowed-tools), skill composition, skill naming conventions, troubleshooting skill activation issues, creating custom slash commands, configuring command frontmatter, using command arguments ($ARGUMENTS, $1, $2), bash execution in commands, file references in commands, command namespacing, plugin commands, MCP slash commands, Skill tool configuration, or deciding between skills vs slash commands. Delegates to docs-management skill for official documentation.
reprompter
IncludedTransform messy prompts into well-structured, effective prompts — single or multi-agent. Use when: "reprompt", "reprompt this", "clean up this prompt", "structure my prompt", rough text needing XML tags and best practices, "reprompter teams", "repromptception", "run with quality", "smart run", "smart agents", multi-agent tasks, audits, parallel work, anything going to agent teams. Don't use when: simple Q&A, pure chat, immediate execution-only tasks. See "Don't Use When" section for details. Outputs: Structured XML/Markdown prompt, quality score (before/after), optional team brief + per-agent sub-prompts, agent team output files. Success criteria: Single mode quality score ≥ 7/10; Repromptception per-agent prompt quality score 8+/10; all required sections present, actionable and specific.
adaptive-compaction
IncludedAdaptive add-on policy and recovery layer that decides WHEN to compact, prune, snapshot, or fork -- replacing fixed-percent auto-compaction across Claude Code, Codex, and MCP-capable hosts. Trigger on auto-compact timing or damage: "when should I compact", "is it safe to compact now or start a fresh session", "auto-compact fires too early/mid-task", "switching to an unrelated task but the window still has space", "context rot", "answers get worse the longer the session runs", "the agent forgot the plan or my decisions after it summarized", "add a layer on top that manages context without changing the agent", raising autoCompactWindow to give the policy room, or installing/tuning a cross-tool compaction policy or PreCompact hook -- even when "compaction" is never said but the problem is context-window pressure or post-summarization memory loss. Do NOT use to summarize a conversation, build RAG, write a summarization prompt (decides WHEN not HOW), or answer max-context-length trivia.
agent-skill-creator
IncludedCreate cross-platform agent skills from workflow descriptions. Activates when users ask to create an agent, automate a repetitive workflow, create a custom skill, or need advanced agent creation. Triggers on phrases like create agent for, automate workflow, create skill for, every day I have to, daily I need to, turn process into agent, need to automate, create a cross-platform skill, validate this skill, export this skill, migrate this skill. Supports single skills, multi-agent suites, transcript processing, template-based creation, interactive configuration, cross-platform export, and spec validation.
llm-wiki
IncludedUse when building or maintaining a persistent personal knowledge base (second brain) in Obsidian where an LLM incrementally ingests sources, updates entity/concept pages, maintains cross-references, and keeps a synthesis current. Triggers include "second brain", "Obsidian wiki", "personal knowledge management", "ingest this paper/article/book", "build a research wiki", "compound knowledge", "Memex", or whenever the user wants knowledge to accumulate across sessions instead of being re-derived by RAG on every query.
skill-master
IncludedAgent Skills authoring, evaluation, and optimization. Create, edit, validate, benchmark, and improve skills following the agentskills.io specification. Use when designing SKILL.md files, structuring skill folders (references, scripts, assets), ingesting external documentation into skills, running trigger evals, benchmarking skill quality, optimizing descriptions, or performing blind A/B comparisons. Keywords: agentskills.io, SKILL.md, skill authoring, eval, benchmark, trigger optimization.
