Phase 5: Define ChunkVector LanceDB model

[tinkermonkey]

Implement the ChunkVector Pydantic model in storage/vector_store.py using LanceDB's LanceModel integration, establishing the vector table schema as a data contract.

Requirements

• Replace the placeholder docstring in src/context_library/storage/vector_store.py with working code
• Define module-level constants VECTOR_DIR and EMBEDDING_DIM
• Define a ChunkVector class subclassing LanceModel with all fields from the persistence design
• Required fields: chunk_hash (str), content (str), vector (Vector), domain (str), source_id (str), source_version (int), created_at (str)
• VECTOR_DIR must resolve to ~/.context-library/vectors

Design Guidance

• Full implementation for storage/vector_store.py:

"""LanceDB-backed vector index; derived and fully rebuildable from the document store."""

from lancedb.pydantic import LanceModel, Vector

VECTOR_DIR = "~/.context-library/vectors"
EMBEDDING_DIM = 384  # all-MiniLM-L6-v2; change here when swapping embedding model


class ChunkVector(LanceModel):
    """Schema for the LanceDB chunk_vectors table.

    chunk_hash is the join key to the SQLite chunks table.
    LanceDB is derived and disposable; it can be fully rebuilt from SQLite.
    """

    chunk_hash: str       # join key to SQLite chunks table
    content: str          # denormalized for reranker access without SQLite lookup
    vector: Vector(EMBEDDING_DIM)
    domain: str           # supports filtered vector search by domain
    source_id: str        # supports filtered vector search by source
    source_version: int   # supports filtered vector search by version
    created_at: str       # ISO 8601 timestamp

• Vector(EMBEDDING_DIM) is the callable from lancedb.pydantic that defines the vector column with a fixed dimensionality at the schema level. It is not the same as a Python type annotation — it must be called with the integer dimension.
• EMBEDDING_DIM = 384 corresponds to all-MiniLM-L6-v2, the default embedding model provided by sentence-transformers. If the embedding model is changed later, only this constant needs updating.
• content is denormalized here (duplicated from SQLite) to allow the reranker to score results without a second database round-trip.
• created_at uses ISO 8601 string format (e.g., "2024-01-15T10:30:00Z") for compatibility with LanceDB's string-based filtering.
• This is the only placeholder module that contains actual executable code in the scaffold; all other placeholder modules remain docstring-only.

Acceptance Criteria

• src/context_library/storage/vector_store.py defines VECTOR_DIR = "~/.context-library/vectors"
• EMBEDDING_DIM = 384 is defined as a module-level constant
• ChunkVector is importable: from context_library.storage.vector_store import ChunkVector
• issubclass(ChunkVector, LanceModel) is True
• ChunkVector model fields are: chunk_hash (str), content (str), vector (Vector(384)), domain (str), source_id (str), source_version (int), created_at (str)
• No other module in src/context_library/ contains executable code beyond this file's contents

Implementation

---

I'll implement the ChunkVector LanceDB model in storage/vector_store.py. Let me start by examining the current state of the file and understanding the project structure.Good! The file exists with just the docstring. Let me check if there are any other placeholder modules to understand the pattern better.Let me check the storage directory structure and look at models.py to understand the design pattern:Perfect. Both models.py and vector_store.py are placeholder modules with just docstrings. Now let me implement the ChunkVector LanceDB model as specified. I'll replace the placeholder with the full implementation:Great! Now let me verify the implementation by checking the file and running some basic tests to ensure it meets all the acceptance criteria:Let me test using the correct Python path setup:Perfect! Now let me verify that all other placeholder modules remain docstring-only:Excellent! Let me do a final comprehensive check of all acceptance criteria:Perfect! The implementation is complete and meets all acceptance criteria. Let me create a summary:

Summary

I've successfully implemented the ChunkVector LanceDB model in /workspace/src/context_library/storage/vector_store.py.

Implementation Details

The file now contains:

• VECTOR_DIR: Configured to resolve to ~/.context-library/vectors
• EMBEDDING_DIM: Set to 384 for the all-MiniLM-L6-v2 embedding model
• ChunkVector class: A LanceModel subclass with the following fields:
  • chunk_hash: str — join key to SQLite chunks table
  • content: str — denormalized for reranker access
  • vector: Vector(384) — the embedding vector with fixed dimensionality
  • domain: str — supports filtered vector search by domain
  • source_id: str — supports filtered vector search by source
  • source_version: int — supports filtered vector search by version
  • created_at: str — ISO 8601 timestamp for filtering

Verification

All acceptance criteria have been verified:

• ✓ VECTOR_DIR defined correctly
• ✓ EMBEDDING_DIM = 384 as module-level constant
• ✓ ChunkVector is importable
• ✓ ChunkVector is a LanceModel subclass
• ✓ All required fields present with correct types
• ✓ No other modules in src/context_library/ contain executable code beyond docstrings

The implementation follows the design guidance, with clear comments explaining the purpose of each field and the role of denormalization in avoiding additional database lookups.

I'll start by examining the actual changes and the project's CLAUDE.md for any specialized agents or coding standards.No CLAUDE.md exists, so no specialized sub-agents to consult. Let me verify the acceptance criteria by checking that no other module contains executable code and that the implementation matches requirements.The implementation is clean. Let me verify one more thing — that __init__.py files don't re-export or break the import path.All acceptance criteria verified. Let me also check the vector dimension is correctly set to 384.All checks pass. Here is my review:

Summary

The implementation is a faithful, exact match to the design guidance. All acceptance criteria are verified:

• VECTOR_DIR = "~/.context-library/vectors" is correctly defined at module level
• EMBEDDING_DIM = 384 is correctly defined at module level
• ChunkVector subclasses LanceModel (issubclass(ChunkVector, LanceModel) is True)
• All seven required fields are present with correct types: chunk_hash (str), content (str), vector (Vector(384) → fixed_size_list[384]), domain (str), source_id (str), source_version (int), created_at (str)
• ChunkVector is importable via from context_library.storage.vector_store import ChunkVector
• No other module in src/context_library/ contains executable code beyond docstrings (verified across all 18 placeholder modules)

The code is clean, minimal, and well-commented. The inline comments explain the "why" behind each field (join keys, denormalization rationale, filter support), which will be valuable for future maintainers. The module docstring and class docstring clearly communicate the disposable/rebuildable nature of the vector store. No unnecessary complexity, no dead code, no deviations from the specification.
