rag SKILL.md skillA
rag from skillmds/skillmd is an agent skill: a SKILL.md folder an AI agent loads when a task calls for it.
mdr add skillmds/skillmd/rag@git:20260919.fecc0d5Pins git:20260919.fecc0d5 in mdr.lock. Pin the fingerprint instead.

Implements document chunking, embedding generation, vector storage, and retrieval pipelines for Retrieval-Augmented Generation systems. Use when building RAG applications, creating document Q&A systems, or integrating AI with knowledge bases.
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
# RAG Implementation Build Retrieval-Augmented Generation systems that extend AI capabilities with external knowledge sources. ## Overview This skill covers: document processing, embedding generation, vector storage, retrieval configuration, and RAG pipeline implementation. ## When to Use - Building Q&A systems over proprietary documents - Creating chatbots with factual information from knowledge bases - Implementing semantic search with natural language queries - Reducing hallucinations with grounded, sourced responses - Building documentation assistants and research tools - Enabling AI systems to access domain-specific knowledge ## Instructions ### Step 1: Choose Vector Database Select based on your requirements: | Requirement | Recommended | |-------------|-------------| | Production scalability | Pinecone, Milvus | | Open-source | Weaviate, Qdrant | | Local development | Chroma, FAISS | | Hybrid search | Weaviate with BM25 | ### Step 2: Select Embedding Model | Use Case | Model | |----------|-------| | General purpose | text-embedding-ada-002 | | Fast and lightweight | all-MiniLM-L6-v2 | | Multilingual | e5-large-v2 | | Best performance | bge-large-en-v1.5 | …

How to install
mdr add skillmds/skillmd/rag@sha256:d9b018ad958b825bThe line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260919.fecc0d5, 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.
