# neo4j-vector-index-skill
> [!info] What it does
> Create and manage Neo4j vector indexes, run vector similarity search (ANN/kNN), store embeddings on nodes or relationships, use SEARCH clause (Neo4j 2026.01+, preferred) or db.index.vector.queryNodes() procedure (deprecated 2026.04, still works on 2025.x), configure HNSW and quantization options, pick similarity function and embedding provider dimensions, and batch-update embeddings. Use when tasks involve CREATE VECTOR INDEX, vector.dimensions, cosine/euclidean search, embedding ingestion pipelines, semantic or structural nearest-neighbor lookup, or hybrid search (vector + fulltext, multiple vector sources, or graph-derived scores). Does NOT handle GraphRAG retrieval_query graph traversal — use neo4j-graphrag-skill. Does NOT handle fulltext-only/keyword-only search — use neo4j-cypher-skill. Does NOT compute GDS graph embeddings (FastRP, Node2Vec) — use neo4j-gds-skill.
