SkillRet-Embedding-0.6B
This is a sentence-transformers model fine-tuned for AI agent skill retrieval. Given a natural-language user request, the model retrieves relevant agent skills from a large skill library.
The model is fine-tuned from Qwen/Qwen3-Embedding-0.6B on the SkillRet benchmark training split using contrastive learning (MultipleNegativesRankingLoss).
Usage
Sentence Transformers
from sentence_transformers import SentenceTransformer
model = SentenceTransformer("anonymous-ed-benchmark/SkillRet-Embedding-0.6B", trust_remote_code=True)
query_prompt = "Instruct: Given a skill search query, retrieve relevant skills that match the query\nQuery: "
queries = [
query_prompt + "Help me set up a CI/CD pipeline for my Python project"
]
skills = [
"ci-cd-setup | Configure continuous integration and deployment pipelines ...",
"python-debugging | Debug Python applications using pdb and logging ...",
]
q_emb = model.encode(queries, normalize_embeddings=True)
s_emb = model.encode(skills, normalize_embeddings=True)
similarities = q_emb @ s_emb.T
print(similarities)

Intended Use
This model is designed for retrieving agent skills given natural-language user requests. It is part of the SkillRet benchmark submission for evaluating skill retrieval systems for AI agents.
Limitations
- Optimized for English-language queries and agent skills.
- Performance may vary on domains outside the SkillRet benchmark distribution.
- The model retrieves skills but does not execute them.
