Milvus Marketplace

A data retrieval development assistant based on Claude Code Skills.

Core Philosophy

Focus: Data Retrieval Domain

We specialize in the data retrieval vertical:

• Vector search, semantic search
• RAG, knowledge base Q&A
• Image search, recommendation systems
• Milvus / Zilliz Cloud

Core Ideas:

1. Scenario plugins = AI cache: Pre-built scenario solutions act like cache - use directly if matched, no need to build from scratch
2. core = methodology + operators: Universal development methodology + composable atomic capabilities
3. Ship 60% first, iterate to 80%: Deliver working solutions quickly, then optimize based on feedback

Scenario Classification Principles

Scenarios are classified by architectural differences, not by industry or model:

• Different architecture = different scenario: Fundamentally different processes and code structures
• Only model/parameters differ = vertical applications within same scenario: Covered through configuration tables

Workflow

User describes requirement
      │
      ▼
   pilot activates
      │
      ├─→ Clarify data and query
      │
      ├─→ Can match a scenario?
      │       ├─ Yes → Use pre-built solution
      │       └─ No → Combine core operators
      │
      ├─→ Generate code → User tests
      │
      └─→ Collect feedback → Iterate

Installation

1. Add Marketplace

/plugin marketplace add zilliztech/milvus-marketplace

2. Install Plugins

# Core tools (required)
/plugin install core@milvus-marketplace

# Install scenario plugins as needed
/plugin install rag-toolkit@milvus-marketplace        # RAG solutions
/plugin install retrieval-system@milvus-marketplace   # Text search
/plugin install multimodal-retrieval@milvus-marketplace # Image/video/multimodal
/plugin install rec-system@milvus-marketplace         # Recommendations
/plugin install memory-system@milvus-marketplace      # Chat memory
/plugin install data-analytics@milvus-marketplace     # Duplicate detection, clustering

3. Start Using

Simply describe what you want to build:

"Help me build a document Q&A system"
"I want to implement semantic search"
"Build an image search application"

The pilot will automatically activate, clarify requirements, and help you orchestrate the toolchain and generate code.
