RAG and semantic search via OpenViking Context Database MCP server. Query documents, search knowledge base, add files/URLs to vector memory. Use for document Q&A, knowledge management, AI agent memory, file search, semantic retrieval. Triggers on "openviking", "search documents", "semantic search", "knowledge base", "vector database", "RAG", "query pdf", "document query", "add resource".

Hand the extracted package to your coding agent with a concrete install brief instead of figuring it out manually.
I downloaded a skill package from Yavira. Read SKILL.md from the extracted folder and install it by following the included instructions. Tell me what you changed and call out any manual steps you could not complete.
I downloaded an updated skill package from Yavira. Read SKILL.md from the extracted folder, compare it with my current installation, and upgrade it while preserving any custom configuration unless the package docs explicitly say otherwise. Summarize what changed and any follow-up checks I should run.
OpenViking is ByteDance's open-source Context Database designed for AI Agents โ a next-generation RAG system that replaces flat vector storage with a filesystem paradigm for managing memories, resources, and skills. Key Features: Filesystem paradigm: Organize context like files with URIs (viking://resources/...) Tiered context (L0/L1/L2): Abstract โ Overview โ Full content, loaded on demand Directory recursive retrieval: Better accuracy than flat vector search MCP server included: Full RAG pipeline via Model Context Protocol
