-- 1. Enable extension (requires PostgreSQL 11+)
CREATE EXTENSION vector;

-- 2. Create optimized table structure
CREATE TABLE documents (
    id UUID PRIMARY KEY DEFAULT gen_random_uuid(),
    content TEXT NOT NULL,
    embedding vector(1536),  -- Match your model's dimension
    metadata JSONB DEFAULT '{}',
    created_at TIMESTAMPTZ DEFAULT NOW(),
    updated_at TIMESTAMPTZ DEFAULT NOW()
);

-- 3. Create indexes
-- IVFFlat: Good balance of speed and accuracy
CREATE INDEX idx_documents_embedding ON documents 
USING ivfflat (embedding vector_cosine_ops) WITH (lists = 100);

-- HNSW: Faster queries, more memory (PostgreSQL 15+)
CREATE INDEX idx_documents_hnsw ON documents 
USING hnsw (embedding vector_cosine_ops) WITH (m = 16, ef_construction = 64);

-- Metadata index for filtering
CREATE INDEX idx_documents_metadata ON documents USING gin (metadata);

-- 4. Helper function for similarity search
CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION search_documents(
    query_embedding vector(1536),
    match_threshold float DEFAULT 0.7,
    match_count int DEFAULT 10,
