Questions about databricks-vector-search
What does the databricks-vector-search skill do?
Databricks AI Search (formerly Vector Search) endpoints and indexes for RAG and semantic search. Use when asked to: create Standard or Storage-Optimized endpoints and Delta Sync or Direct Access indexes with AISearchClient; query with ANN, hybrid, or full-text search and filters; sync, monitor, or migrate indexes; set a target QPS, triage 429s, or load-test an endpoint; wire an index into an agent as a retriever tool. NOT for: no-code document Q&A (databricks-genie-agents); serving-endpoint CRUD (databricks-model-serving); custom ResponsesAgent authoring and deployment (databricks-ml-training).
How do I install databricks-vector-search?
In a terminal: npx skills add databricks/databricks-agent-skills --skill databricks-vector-search. The skills CLI asks which agents to install it for. In Claude.ai you can upload the skill folder as a ZIP under Settings → Skills.
Which agents can use databricks-vector-search?
Skills use the open SKILL.md format, which Claude Code, Claude.ai, the Claude API, OpenAI Codex, Cursor, Gemini CLI and other agents support.
Is databricks-vector-search safe to use?
Our automatic check found no risky patterns (piped shell scripts, hidden characters, secret access, prompt overrides). It is not a full audit – read the SKILL.md and any scripts before installing.
Which tool is databricks-vector-search for?
databricks-vector-search comes from the makers of Databricks and helps your agent work with it.

Rigor Explore compatible skill slug for meaningful and potentially novel deep learning research candidates. Use when the researcher has chosen the task family, dataset, benchmark, evaluation method, provided SOTA references, and wants candidate-only exploration on top of `current_research` with auditable repo understanding, idea gating, fair comparison, and governed experiments written to `explore_outputs/`. Do not use for README-first trusted reproduction, open-ended direction finding, narrow code-only or run-only exploration, passive repo analysis, verified novelty claims, or implicit experimentation.
Rigor Reproduce compatible skill slug for README-first deep learning repository reproduction. Use when the user wants an end-to-end, minimal-trustworthy flow that reads the repository first, selects the smallest documented inference or evaluation target, coordinates intake, setup, trusted execution, optional trusted training, optional repository analysis, and optional paper-gap resolution, enforces conservative patch rules, records evidence assumptions deviations and human decision points, and writes the standardized `repro_outputs/` bundle. Do not use for paper summary, generic environment setup, isolated repo scanning, standalone command execution, silent protocol changes, score chasing, or broad research assistance outside repository-grounded reproduction.
Rigor Train skill for deep learning research repositories. Use when a documented or selected training command should be run conservatively for startup verification, short-run verification, full kickoff, or resume, with command, config, seed, log, checkpoint, status, and metric evidence written to standardized `train_outputs/`. Do not use for environment setup, exploratory sweeps, speculative idea implementation, or end-to-end orchestration.
Rigor Improve / Rigor Explore run leaf skill for bounded exploratory evidence in deep learning research repositories. Use when the researcher explicitly authorizes exploratory runs such as small-subset validation, short-cycle guess-and-check, batch sweeps, idle-GPU search, or quick transfer-learning trials, with fair-comparison caveats and no-overclaim summaries in `explore_outputs/`. Do not use for end-to-end exploration orchestration on top of `current_research`, trusted baseline execution, conservative training verification, default routing, verified SOTA claims, or implicit experimentation.
Search, scrape, crawl, extract structured data, and monitor web pages via the ScrapeGraph AI CLI.
