rag-learning-academy: Skill for Claude Code

.claude/skills/glossary/SKILL.md

glossary is a skill for Claude Code from TakaGoto/rag-learning-academy. It costs 11 tokens per session (918 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A quick-reference guide to terms used in retrieval-augmented generation (RAG), a way of answering questions using information retrieved from documents. It gives short definitions and everyday comparisons.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to look up one RAG term, review terms from a module, or browse the full RAG glossary.
Why use it?
It removes the need to search through technical explanations when you only need to understand a term or group of related concepts.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

glossary scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 10d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

Glossary: RAG Terminology and Concepts

Scope: This skill is a quick-reference dictionary — short, scannable definitions with analogies. For deep, multi-layered explorations of how a concept works and why, use /explain.

An interactive glossary that provides clear, multi-layered definitions of RAG terminology. Designed to be a quick reference that also teaches.

Language awareness: See .claude/LANGUAGE_AWARENESS.md.

Step 1: Determine What to Look Up

  • If the user provides a term (e.g., /glossary embeddings), define that term.
  • If the user provides a module number (e.g., /glossary module 3), list all key terms for that module.
  • If no argument is given, present the full glossary organized by category.

Step 2: Present the Definition

For each term, provide a structured definition with these layers:

One-Line Definition

A concise, precise definition in one sentence. Example: "An embedding is a dense numerical vector that represents the semantic meaning of a piece of text."

Analogy

An everyday analogy that makes the concept intuitive. Example: "Think of embeddings like GPS coordinates for meaning — texts with similar meanings have coordinates that are close together on the map of all possible meanings."

Technical Detail

A deeper technical explanation for learners who want to understand the mechanism. Include relevant details like dimensions, algorithms, or mathematical concepts — but keep it accessible.

Code Example

A minimal code snippet in the learner's chosen language that demonstrates the concept in action:

Generate a minimal, runnable example in the learner's language. For instance, if explaining embeddings, show how to create one using the appropriate library.

Common Misconceptions

One or two things people often get wrong about this concept. Example: "Embeddings are not word-for-word encodings — the same word in different contexts will have different embeddings in contextual models."

Related Terms

Links to other glossary terms that are closely related, so the learner can explore connected concepts.

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.

glossary is a skill published in the GitHub repository TakaGoto/rag-learning-academy (19 stars, last pushed 5mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 11 tokens to every session and 918 once invoked, about $0.0001 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
