 # @betterdb/semantic-cache
 
-A standalone, framework-agnostic semantic cache for LLM applications backed by [Valkey](https://valkey.io/) (or Redis). Uses Valkey's vector search (`valkey-search` module) for similarity matching with built-in [OpenTelemetry](https://opentelemetry.io/) tracing and [Prometheus](https://prometheus.io/) metrics via `prom-client`. The first semantic cache library designed to work natively with Valkey and BetterDB Monitor.

+`iovalkey` is a required peer dependency.
 
 ## Why @betterdb/semantic-cache
 
-As of 2026, no existing semantic cache library simultaneously satisfies all three of the following properties: **Valkey-native** support (explicitly handling `valkey-search` API differences rather than assuming Redis wire compatibility), **standalone** operation (no coupling to LangChain, LiteLLM, AWS, or any other orchestration layer), and **built-in observability** (OpenTelemetry spans and Prometheus metrics emitted at the cache operation level, not just at the HTTP or LLM call level). This package was built to fill that gap.

-- **Valkey-native**: `valkey-search` has API differences from Redis's RediSearch that require explicit handling (see [Valkey Search 1.2 compatibility notes](#valkey-search-12-compatibility-notes) in the changelog). Libraries targeting Redis are not guaranteed to work correctly against self-hosted Valkey or managed Valkey services (ElastiCache, Memorystore).
-- **Standalone**: no dependency on a specific AI framework means you can use this with any LLM client — OpenAI SDK, Anthropic SDK, a local model, or a custom inference endpoint — and swap it out without changing your cache layer.
-- **Built-in OTel + Prometheus**: every `check()` and `store()` call emits a span and increments counters. You get hit rate, similarity score distribution, and latency percentiles in Grafana or any OTel-compatible backend without writing any instrumentation code. If you use [BetterDB Monitor](https://betterdb.com), these metrics are surfaced automatically alongside your other Valkey observability data.
+The only semantic cache library that is simultaneously Valkey-native (explicit handling of `valkey-search` API differences), standalone (no coupling to any AI framework), and has built-in OpenTelemetry + Prometheus instrumentation at the cache operation level.
 
 ## Quick Start
 
 ```typescript
 import Valkey from 'iovalkey';
 import { SemanticCache } from '@betterdb/semantic-cache';
+import { createOpenAIEmbed } from '@betterdb/semantic-cache/embed/openai';
 
 const client = new Valkey({ host: 'localhost', port: 6399 });
 
 const cache = new SemanticCache({
   client,
-  embedFn: async (text) => {
-    // Any embedding provider works — OpenAI, Voyage AI, Cohere, a local model, etc.
-    const res = await fetch('https://api.voyageai.com/v1/embeddings', {
-      method: 'POST',
-      headers: { 'Content-Type': 'application/json', Authorization: `Bearer ${process.env.VOYAGE_API_KEY}` },
-      body: JSON.stringify({ model: 'voyage-3-lite', input: [text] }),
-    });
-    const json = await res.json();
-    return json.data[0].embedding;
-  },
+  embedFn: createOpenAIEmbed(), // or createVoyageEmbed(), createOllamaEmbed(), etc.
+  defaultThreshold: 0.15,       // loosen slightly to catch paraphrases with high confidence
+  defaultTtl: 3600,
 });
 
 await cache.initialize();
 
-// Store a response
-await cache.store('What is the capital of France?', 'Paris');
-
-// Check for a semantically similar prompt
-const result = await cache.check('Capital city of France?');
-// result.hit === true, result.response === 'Paris'
-```
-
-## Client Lifecycle
-
-SemanticCache does **not** own the iovalkey client. You create it, you close it:
-
-```typescript
-const client = new Valkey({ host: 'localhost', port: 6399 });
-const cache = new SemanticCache({ client, embedFn });
-
-// ... use cache ...
+// Store with cost tracking
+await cache.store('What is the capital of France?', 'Paris', {
+  model: 'gpt-4o-mini',
+  inputTokens: 20,
+  outputTokens: 5,
+});
 
-// When shutting down, close the client yourself:
-await client.quit();
+// Exact match - always high confidence
+const exact = await cache.check('What is the capital of France?');
+// exact.hit === true
+// exact.confidence === 'high'
+// exact.similarity === 0.0000
+// exact.costSaved === 0.0000085
+
+// Paraphrase - typically 'uncertain' at threshold 0.1, 'high' at threshold 0.15
+const paraphrase = await cache.check('What city is the capital of France?');
+// paraphrase.hit === true
+// paraphrase.confidence === 'high'    // at threshold 0.15
+// paraphrase.similarity ~= 0.087      // observed with text-embedding-3-small
+// paraphrase.costSaved === 0.0000085
 ```
 
-## Threshold: Cosine Distance vs Cosine Similarity
+## Threshold and Confidence
 
-This library uses **cosine distance** (0–2 scale), not cosine similarity (0–1 scale):
+This library uses **cosine distance** (0-2 scale, lower = more similar):
 
 | Distance | Meaning |
 |----------|---------|
-| 0 | Identical vectors |
-| 1 | Orthogonal (unrelated) |
-| 2 | Opposite vectors |
-
-A cache lookup is a **hit** when `score <= threshold`. The default threshold of `0.1` is strict — it matches only very similar prompts. Increase to `0.15–0.2` for broader matching.
-
-The relationship is: `distance = 1 - similarity`. A cosine similarity of 0.95 corresponds to a distance of 0.05.
+| 0.00 | Identical vectors |
+| 0.05-0.10 | Strong paraphrase |
+| 0.10-0.20 | Loose paraphrase / related topic |
+| 1.00 | Orthogonal (unrelated) |
 
-### Handling uncertain hits
+A lookup is a **hit** when `score <= threshold`. The default threshold is `0.1`.
 
-When `confidence` is `'uncertain'`, the cached response is technically above
-the similarity threshold but close to the boundary. Three common patterns:
+### Confidence levels
 
-**Accept and monitor** — return the cached response but track uncertain hits
-separately via the `result: 'uncertain_hit'` Prometheus label. Review them
-periodically to decide if the threshold needs adjustment.
+| `confidence` | When | What to do |
+|---|---|---|
+| `high` | `score <= threshold - uncertaintyBand` (e.g. `<= 0.05`) | Return the cached response directly |
+| `uncertain` | `threshold - band < score <= threshold` (e.g. `0.05–0.10`) | Return the response but consider flagging for review |
+| `miss` | `score > threshold` | No hit - call the LLM |
 
-**Fall back to LLM** — treat uncertain hits as misses, call the LLM, then
-update the cache entry with `store()` using the fresh response.
+**With real embeddings (`text-embedding-3-small`):**
+- Exact same phrasing: `~0.000` - always `high`
+- Close paraphrase ("Which city is the capital of France?"): `~0.08–0.09` - `uncertain` at default `0.1` threshold, `high` at `0.15`
+- Loose paraphrase ("France's capital?"): `~0.10–0.15` - typically `miss` at `0.1`, `uncertain` at `0.15`
 
-**Prompt for feedback** — in user-facing applications, show the cached
-response but collect a thumbs up/down signal to identify false positives.
+**Recommended thresholds by use case:**
 
-A high rate of uncertain hits (visible in the `{prefix}_requests_total`
-metric) indicates the threshold may be too loose for the query distribution.
+| Use case | Threshold | Notes |
+|---|---|---|
+| FAQ / exact match only | `0.05` | Very strict, near-zero false positives |
+| Standard Q&A | `0.10` | Default - paraphrases land as `uncertain` |
+| Conversational / RAG | `0.15` | Paraphrases hit as `high` confidence |
+| Broad search / recall | `0.20` | High hit rate, review uncertain hits |

-### OpenTelemetry Tracing
-
-Every public method emits an OTel span with relevant attributes (`cache.hit`, `cache.similarity`, `cache.threshold`, `cache.confidence`, etc.). Spans require an OpenTelemetry SDK to be configured in the host application — this library uses `@opentelemetry/api` and does not bundle an SDK.
+```typescript
+await cache.store('What is the capital of France?', 'Paris', {
+  model: 'claude-haiku-4-5',   // looked up in bundled LiteLLM price table
+  inputTokens: 42,
+  outputTokens: 12,
+});
 
-## BetterDB Monitor Integration
+const result = await cache.check('Capital of France?');
+console.log(result.costSaved);  // e.g. 0.000064 (dollars saved on this hit)
 
-If you connect [BetterDB Monitor](https://github.com/KIvanow/monitor) to the same Valkey instance, it will automatically detect the semantic cache index and surface:
+const stats = await cache.stats();
+console.log(stats.costSavedMicros); // cumulative microdollars saved
+```
 
-- Hit rate and miss rate over time
-- Similarity score distribution
-- Cache entry count and memory usage
-- Cost savings estimates based on cache hit rates
+Cost savings scale with the model. Observed values from live examples:
+- `gpt-4o-mini`: ~`$0.000006` per hit (cheap model, short responses)
+- `claude-haiku-4-5`: ~`$0.000064` per hit (~10x more expensive)
+- `gpt-4o`: ~`$0.000100` per hit at 20 input / 5 output tokens

-`@betterdb/semantic-cache` works with single-node Valkey instances and managed
-single-endpoint services (Amazon ElastiCache for Valkey, Google Cloud Memorystore
-for Valkey). It does not fully support Valkey in cluster mode.
+## Client Lifecycle
+
+SemanticCache does **not** own the iovalkey client:
+
+```typescript
+const client = new Valkey({ host: 'localhost', port: 6399 });
+const cache = new SemanticCache({ client, embedFn });
+// ... use cache ...
+await client.quit();
+```
 
-The specific issue is `flush()`: it uses `SCAN` to find and delete entry keys,
-but `SCAN` in cluster mode only iterates keys on the node it is sent to. In a
-multi-node cluster, `flush()` will silently leave entry keys on other nodes
-(the FT index itself is dropped correctly).
+## Known Limitations
 
-`check()`, `store()`, `invalidate()`, and `stats()` are unaffected — these use
-`FT.SEARCH`, `HSET`, `DEL`, and `HINCRBY` which route correctly in cluster mode
-via the key hash slot.
+### Cluster mode
 
-If you need cluster support, either avoid `flush()` or implement a cluster-aware
-key sweep using the iovalkey cluster client's per-node scan capability.
-Cluster mode support is planned for a future release.
+`flush()` fans out via `clusterScan()` across all master nodes. `FT.SEARCH` routes correctly via hash slots. `FT.CREATE` only creates the index on the receiving node - in a full cluster, create the index on each node separately.
 
 ### Streaming
 
-Streaming LLM responses are not supported. `store()` expects a complete response
-string. If your application uses streaming, accumulate the full response before
-calling `store()`. The cached response is always returned as a complete string,
-not re-streamed token-by-token.
+`store()` requires a complete response string. The Vercel AI SDK adapter does not implement `wrapStream`. Accumulate the full streamed response before calling `store()`.
+
+### Schema migration (v0.1 -> v0.2)
+
+v0.2.0 added `binary_refs`, `temperature`, `top_p`, `seed` fields to the index schema. Existing v0.1.0 indexes operate in text-only mode until `flush()` + `initialize()` rebuilds the schema.
