CodeVectorStore

CodeVectorStore(
    embedding_model: str = "text-embedding-ada-002",
    embedding_provider: str = "openai",
    dimension: int = 1536,
    index_type: str = "flat",
    index_metric: str = "ip",
    ivf_nlist: int = 100,
    ivf_nprobe: int = 8,
    store_path: str | None = None,
    profiler: Profiler | None = None,
    embedding: Any | None = None,
    artifact_metadata: dict[str, Any] | None = None,
    **embedding_kwargs
)

Vector store for code embeddings using FAISS and sentence-transformers. Provides semantic search capabilities over code chunks.

Supports hierarchical indexing: - L0: File-level skeletons - L2: Function/method-level chunks for fine-grained retrieval (default)

Parameters:

Name	Type	Description	Default
embedding_model	str	Name of the embedding model to use	'text-embedding-ada-002'
embedding_provider	str	Provider for embeddings ("openai" or "huggingface")	'openai'
dimension	int	Dimension of the embedding vectors	1536
index_type	str	FAISS index type — "flat" (exact brute force, default) or "ivf" (IVF inverted-file; approximate, faster at scale). IVF indices are trained lazily on the first batch of vectors.	'flat'
index_metric	str	Distance metric ("ip" for inner product, "l2" for L2 distance)	'ip'
ivf_nlist	int	IVF only — number of Voronoi cells (coarse centroids). On small corpora it is clamped down to the training-set size, since FAISS k-means needs at least nlist training points.	100
ivf_nprobe	int	IVF only — cells probed per query; the recall/latency knob. Clamped to the effective nlist.	8
store_path	str | None	Path to store/load the vector store	None
profiler	Profiler | None	Optional profiler instance to capture detailed timings	None
embedding	Any | None	A pre-built embedding wrapper to reuse. When several stores share one model (e.g. one per repo), pass the same instance so the model is loaded onto the GPU only once.	None
artifact_metadata	dict[str, Any] | None	Optional immutable source/build identity persisted with the top-level configuration.	None
**embedding_kwargs		Additional arguments for embedding model	{}

Methods:

Name	Description
reuse_query_embedding	Reuse one query vector within a composed request, then discard it.
clear_query_cache	Clear the single-query embedding reused by consecutive search stages.
swap_index	Hot-swap the FAISS index without reloading the embedding model.
close	Release embeddings and FAISS resources to free memory.
add_code_chunks	Add code chunks to the vector store.
add_nodes_with_content	Add NodeInfo objects (with content) to the vector store.
search	Search for similar code chunks using semantic similarity.
search_with_content	Search and return results with content included.
search_within_ids	Search only within a restricted set of node IDs.
hierarchical_search	Note: This method is implemented by Claude and is just for future reference.
save	Save the vector store to disk.
load	Load the vector store from disk.
get_stats	Get statistics about the vector store.
get_embeddings_by_content_hash	Extract raw embedding vectors from the FAISS index, keyed by content hash.
rebuild_from_embeddings	Clear level and rebuild its FAISS index from pre-computed embeddings.
delta_update	Patch a flat FAISS index in place when the change set is small.
clear	Clear data from the vector store.

Attributes:

Name	Type	Description
closed	bool	Whether every resource owned by this store has been released.

search_within_ids

search_within_ids(
    query: str, mask_node_ids: set[str], top_k: int = 10, level: Level = "l2"
) -> list[NodeInfo]

Search only within a restricted set of node IDs.

Instead of searching the full FAISS index globally and filtering afterwards, this method restricts the search space before computing similarity. It reconstructs stored vectors for matching documents and computes similarity against the query embedding directly.

Parameters:

Name	Type	Description	Default
query	str	Search query text.	required
mask_node_ids	set[str]	Set of node_id / node_name values to restrict search to.	required
top_k	int	Number of top results to return.	10
level	Level	Index level to search.	'l2'

Returns:

Type	Description
list[NodeInfo]	List of NodeInfo objects sorted by similarity score.

get_embeddings_by_content_hash

get_embeddings_by_content_hash(level: Level = 'l2') -> dict[str, ndarray]

Extract raw embedding vectors from the FAISS index, keyed by content hash.

Each document's content is MD5-hashed to produce the key. If the document metadata already contains a content_hash field it is used directly; otherwise the hash is computed on the fly.

rebuild_from_embeddings

rebuild_from_embeddings(
    documents: list, embeddings: list[ndarray], level: Level = "l2"
) -> None

Clear level and rebuild its FAISS index from pre-computed embeddings.

Used by the incremental update path: unchanged chunks contribute their cached vectors, so only genuinely new/modified chunks require model inference. No embedding model calls are made by this method.

Parameters:

Name	Type	Description	Default
documents	list	Document-like objects with page_content and metadata attributes (_Document or compatible).	required
embeddings	list[ndarray]	Corresponding embedding vectors as np.ndarray (shape [dim], dtype float32).	required
level	Level	Which index level to rebuild ("l0" or "l2").	'l2'

Raises:

Type	Description
ValueError	If documents and embeddings have different lengths.

    all_embeddings: list[ndarray],
    changed_content_hashes: set[str],
    level: Level = "l2",
    threshold: float = 0.1,
) -> None

Patch a flat FAISS index in place when the change set is small.

When the fraction of changed chunks is below threshold, this uses IndexFlat.remove_ids + add to modify only the affected rows, keeping unchanged vectors and their aligned documents untouched. IVF indexes are rebuilt because removing their implicit IDs does not compact the remaining labels to match the document array. If the change ratio exceeds the threshold (or the index is empty), this also falls back to :meth:rebuild_from_embeddings.

Parameters:

Name	Type	Description	Default
all_documents	list	The complete desired set of documents for level after the update. Must carry content_hash in metadata.	required
all_embeddings	list[ndarray]	Corresponding embedding vectors, aligned with all_documents.	required
changed_content_hashes	set[str]	Content hashes of chunks that were added, removed, or modified in this update cycle. Used both to decide between delta/rebuild and to identify stale rows.	required
level	Level	Which index level to update.	'l2'
threshold	float	Maximum change ratio (changed/total) for the delta path; above this a full rebuild is performed.	0.1
