hybrid-search-implementation SKILL.md skillA
hybrid-search-implementation from dicklesworthstone/pi_agent_rust is an agent skill: a SKILL.md folder an AI agent loads when a task calls for it.
mdr add dicklesworthstone/pi_agent_rust/hybrid-search-implementation@git:20260205.788be98Pins git:20260205.788be98 in mdr.lock. Pin the fingerprint instead.

Combine vector and keyword search for improved retrieval. Use when implementing RAG systems, building search engines, or when neither approach alone provides sufficient recall.
Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.
What the file says
# Hybrid Search Implementation
Patterns for combining vector similarity and keyword-based search.
## When to Use This Skill
- 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
## Core Concepts
### 1. Hybrid Search Architecture
```
Query → ┬─► Vector Search ──► Candidates ─┐
│ │
└─► Keyword Search ─► Candidates ─┴─► Fusion ─► Results
```
### 2. Fusion Methods
| Method | Description | Best For |
| ----------------- | ------------------------ | --------------- |
| **RRF** | Reciprocal Rank Fusion | General purpose |
| **Linear** | Weighted sum of scores | Tunable balance |
| **Cross-encoder** | Rerank with neural model | Highest quality |
| **Cascade** | Filter then rerank | Efficiency |
## Templates
### Template 1: Reciprocal Rank Fusion
```python
from typing import List, Dict, Tuple
from collections import defaultdict
def reciprocal_rank_fusion(

How to install
mdr add dicklesworthstone/pi_agent_rust/hybrid-search-implementation@sha256:082542a7eb3c7e30The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260205.788be98, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
