Seekdb Docs

seekdb Documentation

Provides access to ~1000 seekdb documentation entries through a catalog-based search system.

Version Info

• Documentation versions covered: V1.0.0, V1.1.0 (merged, latest takes priority)
• Latest version: V1.1.0

• The branch field in catalog entries indicates which Git branch hosts the file (used for remote fallback URLs only). It does NOT indicate which seekdb version the content applies to — many docs apply to all versions.
• If the user asks about a specific seekdb version, note that this documentation set reflects the latest available content and may not distinguish version-specific differences.

Path Resolution (Do First)

All resource paths are relative to this SKILL.md's location. Resolve the skill directory first:

1. Read this SKILL.md to get its absolute path
2. Extract the parent directory as ``
3. Catalog: references/seekdb-docs-catalog.jsonl
4. Docs base: seekdb-docs/

Workflow

Step 1: Search Catalog

Grep search (preferred for ~90% of queries):

grep -i "keyword" references/seekdb-docs-catalog.jsonl

Full catalog load (only when grep returns no results or semantic matching is needed):

• Local: references/seekdb-docs-catalog.jsonl
• Remote fallback: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/oceanbase/seekdb-ecology-plugins/main/agent-skills/skills/seekdb/references/seekdb-docs-catalog.jsonl
• Format: JSONL — one {"path": "...", "description": "...", "branch": "..."} per line (~1000 entries)

Step 2: Match Query

• Extract path, description, and branch from search results
• Select entries whose descriptions best match the query semantically (match by meaning, not just keywords)
• Consider multiple matches for comprehensive answers

Step 3: Read Document

Local-first with remote fallback:

1. Try local: seekdb-docs/[path]
2. Fallback: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/oceanbase/seekdb-doc/[branch]/en-US/[path]

• [branch] comes from the catalog entry's branch field (e.g. V1.0.0, V1.1.0)
• Docs span multiple version branches; some files only exist in a specific branch

Example

Query: "How to integrate with Claude Code?"

1. grep -i "claude code" references/seekdb-docs-catalog.jsonl
2. Match: {"path": "300.integrations/300.developer-tools/700.claude-code.md",
           "description": "This guide explains how to use the seekdb plugin with Claude Code...",
           "branch": "V1.0.0"}
3. Read: seekdb-docs/300.integrations/300.developer-tools/700.claude-code.md
   Fallback: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/oceanbase/seekdb-doc/V1.0.0/en-US/300.integrations/300.developer-tools/700.claude-code.md

Notes

• Optional local docs: Run scripts/update_docs.sh to download and merge docs from all version branches locally
• Multi-version: Docs span multiple branches; the update script merges them and records each file's source branch in the catalog
• Offline capable: With local docs and catalog present, works completely offline
