Rewrite docs/user/search/embeddings.md for the resolved Provider model: the provider table, the OMNIGRAPH_EMBED_* env surface (default OpenRouter), the deadline/observability/reuse behavior, and a no-back-compat migration note for gemini-preview graphs.

# Embeddings
|
|
|
|
OmniGraph embeds text through a **single, provider-independent client** resolved from one
|
|
`EmbeddingConfig { provider, model, base_url, api_key }`. The same resolved config is used by the query-time
|
|
auto-embed of a string in `nearest($v, "string")` and by the offline `omnigraph embed` file pipeline, so
|
|
query vectors and document vectors share one model and one vector space.
|
|
|
|
## Providers
|
|
|
|
| `provider` | Wire shape | Use it for |
|
|
|---|---|---|
|
|
| `openai-compatible` (default) | `POST {base}/embeddings`, bearer auth, `{model, input, dimensions}` | **OpenRouter** (the default gateway — one key for many models), OpenAI direct, or a self-hosted endpoint (vLLM / Ollama / LM Studio) |
|
|
| `gemini` | `POST {base}/models/{model}:embedContent`, `x-goog-api-key`, with `RETRIEVAL_QUERY` / `RETRIEVAL_DOCUMENT` task types | Reaching Google's `generativelanguage` API directly |
|
|
| `mock` | none — deterministic offline vectors | Tests and local dev without a key |
|
|
|
|
Vectors are stored L2-normalized as `FixedSizeList(Float32, dim)`; the requested output dimension is driven by
|
|
the target column width and sent as Gemini `outputDimensionality` / OpenAI `dimensions`.
|
|
|
|
## Configuration (environment)
|
|
|
|
| Variable | Meaning |
|
|
|---|---|
|
|
| `OMNIGRAPH_EMBED_PROVIDER` | `openai-compatible` (default) \| `gemini` \| `mock` |
|
|
| `OMNIGRAPH_EMBED_BASE_URL` | endpoint base; default `https://openrouter.ai/api/v1` (openai-compatible) or `https://generativelanguage.googleapis.com/v1beta` (gemini) |
|
|
| `OMNIGRAPH_EMBED_MODEL` | model id; default `openai/text-embedding-3-large` (openai-compatible) or `gemini-embedding-2` (gemini) |
|
|
| `OPENROUTER_API_KEY` / `OPENAI_API_KEY` | api key for `openai-compatible` (OpenRouter preferred) |
|
|
| `GEMINI_API_KEY` | api key for `gemini` |
|
|
| `OMNIGRAPH_EMBED_QUERY_DEADLINE_MS` | total wall-clock budget for one embed call across all retries (default `60000`; `0` = unbounded) |
|
|
| `OMNIGRAPH_EMBED_TIMEOUT_MS` | per-request HTTP timeout (default `30000`) |
|
|
| `OMNIGRAPH_EMBED_RETRY_ATTEMPTS` / `OMNIGRAPH_EMBED_RETRY_BACKOFF_MS` | retry policy (defaults `4` / `200`) |
|
|
| `OMNIGRAPH_EMBEDDINGS_MOCK` | set truthy to force the deterministic mock provider |
|
|
|
|
The default zero-config path is OpenRouter: set `OPENROUTER_API_KEY` and run. Reaching Gemini takes
|
|
`OMNIGRAPH_EMBED_PROVIDER=gemini` plus `GEMINI_API_KEY`.
|
|
|
|
### Behavior notes
|
|
|
|
- **Bounded latency.** Each embed call is wrapped in `OMNIGRAPH_EMBED_QUERY_DEADLINE_MS`, so a degraded
|
|
provider cannot hang a read for the full retry envelope.
|
|
- **Reuse.** The query path builds the client once per graph handle (on the first `nearest($v, "string")`
|
|
that needs embedding) and reuses it, keeping the provider connection pool warm. A graph that never embeds
|
|
needs no provider key.
|
|
- **Observability.** Embed calls emit `tracing` events under `target = "omnigraph::embedding"` (provider,
|
|
model, dim, attempt, elapsed, outcome).
|
|
|
|
## `@embed` schema annotation
|
|
|
|
Mark a Vector property with `@embed("source_text_property")`. Today this is a **catalog annotation** consumed
|
|
by the query typechecker and linter: it records which String property is the embedding source and lets
|
|
`nearest($v, "string")` auto-embed a query string for comparison against that vector column.
|
|
|
|
**It does not embed at ingest.** Stored vectors are supplied directly in your load data, or pre-filled by the
|
|
offline `omnigraph embed` pipeline below. (Ingest-time execution of `@embed` is a planned enhancement.)
|
|
|
|
## CLI `omnigraph embed` (offline file pipeline)
|
|
|
|
Operates on **JSONL files** (not on a graph), using the same resolved provider config. Three modes (mutually
|
|
exclusive):
|
|
|
|
- (default) `fill_missing` — only embed rows whose target field is empty
|
|
- `--reembed-all` — overwrite all
|
|
- `--clean` — strip embeddings
|
|
|
|
Inputs are either a single seed manifest YAML or `--input/--output/--spec`. Selectors `--type T`, `--select T:field=value` filter rows. Streams JSONL → JSONL.
|
|
|
|
## Migration
|
|
|
|
This release has no backwards-compatibility shim (pre-release). The default provider is now OpenRouter, and
|
|
the legacy `OMNIGRAPH_GEMINI_BASE_URL` is removed. A graph whose vectors were produced with
|
|
`gemini-embedding-2-preview` should either re-embed, or pin the query-time embedder to match by setting
|
|
`OMNIGRAPH_EMBED_PROVIDER=gemini` and `OMNIGRAPH_EMBED_MODEL=gemini-embedding-2-preview` (the stored and query
|
|
vectors must come from the same model to be comparable).
