Guides embedding model migration in Qdrant without downtime. Use when someone asks 'how to switch embedding models', 'how to migrate vectors', 'how to update to a new model', 'zero-downtime model change', 'how to re-embed my data', or 'can I use two models at once'. Also use when upgrading model dimensions, switching providers, or A/B testing models.

From the source SKILL.md

Vectors from different models are incompatible. You cannot mix old and new embeddings in the same vector space. You also cannot add new named vector fields to an existing collection. All named vectors must be defined at collection creation time. Both migration strategies below require creating a new collection.

What this skill does

Qdrant Model Migration is a community-contributed Claude Code skill in the databases sub-category. It ships as a SKILL.md file that Claude Code auto-discovers under ~/.claude/skills/qdrant-model-migration/ and loads when your prompt matches the skill's trigger.
