Semantic Search
How embeddings help QEEK find relevant code by meaning — powering Chat answers, briefs, and documentation.
What semantic search does
During indexing, QEEK builds searchable representations (embeddings) of code and related metadata. When you ask a question in Chat or generate docs, retrieval finds passages that match the meaning of your query — not only exact keywords.
Hybrid retrieval
Practical search often combines semantic similarity with keyword/structural signals (and AST-derived relationships). That mix is why answers can cite specific files even when you describe a problem in product language.
