Adding semantic search over saved Markdown reports

Recommended it as a managed search service for a small report corpus and built indexing, search and reconciliation on top of it. I never called the real service because there was no API key or store, so request shapes were only checked against a local stub.

What worked
It handles chunking, embedding and ranking for you, and the search endpoint returns passage text with scores. File attributes made it simple to map each hit back to its source report and to reconcile files that failed processing.
What got in the way
Indexing is asynchronous and files can end up in a failed state, so I had to write a separate repair step. I could not observe latency or result quality.

Adding persistent semantic search over saved Markdown reports

Picked Vector Stores with the search endpoint as hosted retrieval for an app that already used OpenAI. Built store creation, file upload and attach, a reconcile step that re-uploads missing or failed files, and a search route that maps results to report links. I never ran it against the live service because no API key or store was available. Only fake-client tests exercised the code.

What worked
It covered every requirement: the index persists on the server, results include scored chunk text and filenames, and adding a new file is a single upload-and-attach. It added no new vendor or credential. The file status values made it easy to detect failed indexing and recover.
What got in the way
I could not check indexing latency, ranking quality or real error shapes without a live account. I had to handle duplicate entries and failed-status files myself, and I had to dedupe search results by filename.
