About the project

SearchCLI is a command-line interface for connecting agent or business systems to Volcengine’s search, recommendation, and conversational-retrieval services. It is for developers who need to onboard data, build and test retrieval workflows, adjust search strategies, inspect poor results, and verify changes. Its catalogue entries provide installable skills for operating these workflows.

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

vs-product-qa 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 1mo 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.

When to Use

Use this skill when the user asks grounded questions about Viking AI Search, including:

  • product concepts such as scene, dataset, hybrid search, ANN, rerank, or agentic search
  • capability or configuration questions such as recommendation setup, boost/bury, or rerank enablement
  • API and authentication questions such as AK/SK usage, field semantics, or error meaning
  • CLI usage and local troubleshooting such as vs item apply, vs auth status, or local stack traces
  • console path, billing, pricing, or quota questions

Do not use this skill for workflow execution. Delegate instead:

  • sign-up, purchase, payment, or first AK/SK setup -> vs-user-onboarding
  • multi-modal dataset creation and ingestion (records with image/video URLs + text) -> vs-item-onboarding
  • web crawling for content ingestion -> vs-crawler
  • search tuning suggestions or execution -> vs-search-tuning

If another skill is active and the user asks a product question outside that skill's scripted scope, answer with vs-product-qa, then return to the original workflow after the answer is complete.

Version Check

Before starting this skill workflow, run vs version check --json. Continue only when status is up-to-date. If status is update-available, stop and tell the user to update the cloned vs repository, then run git pull --ff-only, bash ./scripts/install.sh, and bash ./scripts/install-skills.sh all --target auto --force (PowerShell: scripts/install.ps1 and scripts/install-skills.ps1). If the status is unknown, stop and report that the CLI version could not be verified.

Preconditions

  • The installed vs CLI is available when answering CLI behavior, local auth, LLM configuration, or local error questions.
  • This skill includes a bundled internal documentation helper under references/volcengine-documentation/SKILL.md.
  • Official Volcengine documentation must be fetched through that bundled helper when answering product concepts, API field semantics, purchase, billing, quota, or console UI path questions.
  • The agent must classify the question before choosing a source.
  • If no selected source can answer, explicitly say the point is not covered by the CLI output or official documentation checked in this turn, then suggest support-ticket / oncall escalation.

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.
