ArangoDB Best Practices (Project Skill)

This skill codifies rules for using ArangoDB correctly in this repo. The core principle:

ArangoDB's built-in features MUST be used instead of reimplementing them in Python.

The Anti-Pattern This Skill Prevents

Python code that duplicates what ArangoDB already does:

Stop word lists in Python (ArangoDB text_en already strips them)
Hand-rolled stemming in Python (ArangoDB text_en already stems via Snowball)
Regex patterns that classify entity types (ArangoDB collections already know what things are)
Hardcoded domain term lists (ArangoDB collections are the source of truth)
Python-side BM25/TF-IDF scoring (ArangoDB BM25() does this server-side)
Python-side cosine similarity loops (ArangoDB COSINE_SIMILARITY() does this server-side)
