Baseline — Fase 1.2

VectorCode dense-only search quality baseline. Run against the curated mini-corpus (3 repos: thiserror Rust, defu TypeScript, itsdangerous Python) using the embeddinggemma:latest embedding model via Ollama on ARM (Apple Silicon).

Per-Language Breakdown

Rust (thiserror) 5 5/5 1.0000
TypeScript (defu) 5 0/5 0.0000
Python (itsdangerous) 5 1/5 0.5000

Notes

  • Dense search with embeddinggemma performs well on Rust code (100% hit rate on thiserror queries) but poorly on TypeScript (0%) and mixed on Python (20%).
  • The zero TypeScript results suggest the embedding model struggles with TS semantic search or the defu corpus is too small (3 files).
  • This baseline will be used to measure improvement in Fase 1.3-1.6 (sparse search, RRF fusion, reranker).

Reproducibility

# Requires: Ollama running with embeddinggemma:latest
ollama pull embeddinggemma:latest
cargo run -- benchmark --corpus mini

Fase 1.3-1.4 — Hybrid Search Baseline Verification

Verification that the dense-only baseline is preserved after adding sparse search (FTS5) and RRF fusion. Default mode remains Dense, so the benchmark code path is identical.

Dense (default) vectorcode search "query" ✅ Unchanged
Sparse (FTS5) vectorcode search --mode sparse "query" ✅ bm25 lexical
Hybrid (RRF) vectorcode search --mode hybrid "query" ✅ Dense + Sparse fusion

Implementation Summary

  • Schema: v2→v3 migration with chunks_fts FTS5 virtual table + triggers
  • Engine: SearchStrategy trait with DenseSearcher / SparseSearcher / HybridSearcher
  • Fusion: rrf_fuse() pure function with configurable K (default 60)
  • CLI: --mode dense|sparse|hybrid flag
  • Tests: 617 total (573 unit + 44 integration), all passing
  • Commits: 6 (5 features + 1 migration fix)

Conclusion

La línea base dense-only se mantiene intacta. Las fases 1.3 y 1.4 agregan búsqueda léxica (FTS5) y fusión RRF sin degradar el pipeline existente. El benchmark confirma que el modo por defecto (Dense) produce resultados equivalentes a la Fase 1.2. Las capacidades nuevas (--mode sparse, --mode hybrid) están operativas y verificadas con pruebas de humo sobre el repositorio real. Listo para Fase 1.5 (reranker ONNX) y Fase 1.6 (re-medición completa con hybrid).

Fase 1.5-1.6: Reranker ONNX + Re-medición (2026-06-19)

Multi-mode benchmark comparing dense, sparse, hybrid (RRF), and hybrid-rerank search strategies over the mini corpus. Reranker active — BGE-Reranker-v2-m3 cross-encoder running on CPU via ONNX Runtime.

Análisis

El reranker funciona. nDCG@10 mejora un 47% sobre hybrid y MRR más del doble. El cross-encoder re-ordena el top-K con scores de relevancia mucho más finos que RRF, empujando los documentos correctos a las primeras posiciones.

Recall@5 no cambia porque el reranker no descubre documentos nuevos — solo re-ordena lo que el retrieval (dense+sparse) ya encontró. El recall es responsabilidad del retrieval; nDCG y MRR son responsabilidad del ranking.

Latencia: 32.6s vs 11.3s (~3×). El costo de correr un cross-encoder de 568M parámetros en CPU pura. El modo es explícitamente opt-in (--mode hybrid-rerank), dejando al usuario elegir entre velocidad y calidad. Para agentes IA que hacen búsquedas esporádicas, el trade-off es aceptable.

Dense vs Hybrid+Rerank: El pipeline completo (dense + sparse + RRF + reranker) supera al dense-only original en calidad de ranking. Sparse solo (FTS5/BM25) sigue siendo débil para queries en lenguaje natural, pero su valor está en complementar al dense en la fusión RRF.

Bugs corregidos durante Fase 1.5-1.6:

  • sanitize_fts_query: términos con guiones ("key-based") causaban error FTS5
  • from_cache_with_timeout(): no descargaba el modelo automáticamente
  • URL del modelo: Xenova/bge-reranker-v2-m3 no existe → onnx-community/...
  • model.onnx con external data → model_quantized.onnx self-contained
  • token_type_ids: XLM-RoBERTa no acepta este input (solo BERT)

Verificación

  • 616 unit tests, 44 integration tests — all passing
  • cargo fmt --check — passes
  • cargo clippy --all-targets -- -D warnings — passes

Phase 2 Graph Benchmark

Structural query benchmark using the knowledge graph. Measures symbol-level recall and precision for graph-based retrieval (callers, dependents, imports).

Run Info

Field Value
Date 2026-06-20
Query Set mini-structural (12 queries)
Query Types 5 callers, 4 imports, 3 dependents
Corpus mini (thiserror + defu + itsdangerous)
Files Indexed 18
Chunks Created 83
Graph Nodes Populated via tree-sitter extraction

Aggregate Metrics

Metric Value
Symbol Recall@5 1.0000
Symbol Recall@10 1.0000
Symbol Precision@5 0.6500

Per-Tool Breakdown

Tool Queries R@5 P@5 R@10
callers 5 1.0000 0.8000 1.0000
imports 4 1.0000 0.5500 1.0000
dependents 3 1.0000 0.6667 1.0000

Notes

  • Structural queries use routing=graph or routing=auto with heuristic classifications.
  • Symbol-level metrics measure exact symbol matches (file::symbol keys).
  • External imports (e.g., std::fmt) are surfaced via LEFT JOIN in get_imports.
  • This benchmark complements the semantic retrieval metrics above.
  • Queries reference symbols from the actual indexed mini corpus (thiserror + defu + itsdangerous).
  • Perfect recall@5 and recall@10 indicate the graph correctly returns all expected symbols.
  • Precision@5 of 0.65 reflects queries with fewer than 5 results (graph returns exact sets, not ranked lists).
