LLMemory Hybrid Search

Installation

uv add llmemory
# or
pip install llmemory

Overview

Hybrid search combines vector similarity search (semantic understanding) with full-text search (keyword matching) to deliver superior retrieval quality. Results are merged using Reciprocal Rank Fusion (RRF) to create a unified ranking.

When to use hybrid search:

• Need both semantic similarity AND exact keyword matches
• Queries contain specific terms, names, or technical jargon
• Want best-of-both-worlds retrieval quality (recommended default)
