Auto-Pilot runs once per index, automatically, the moment the index crosses 50 indexed documents. It takes 1–3 minutes and configures everything an expert would normally set up by hand. Every action it takes is logged and reversible from the Review AI Setup page.
# The 8 steps
| Step | What it does |
|---|---|
| Schema detection | Picks searchable / facetable / sortable fields from a 100-doc sample. |
| Catalog analysis | Identifies language, domain (e.g. automotive, fashion), brands, and proposes synonyms and rules. |
| Language + stop words | Loads stop-word list for the detected language. |
| Domain profile | Tunes per-field weights and relevance bonuses to expert defaults for the detected domain. |
| Synonyms | Persists domain-specific synonyms with confidence ≥ 0.85. |
| Ranking rules | Adds boost / hide rules referenced against your real schema. |
| Morphology pairs | (Romanian only, for now.) Generates singular ↔ plural synonyms across your catalogue. |
| Semantic search | Enables AI semantic search and queues background embedding generation. |
| Validation | Runs 10 test queries and scores result quality 0–10 per query. |
# Quality score
After validation Skryx prints a score out of 100. See quality score for the breakdown.
| Score | Meaning |
|---|---|
| 85+ | Excellent — your search is ready for production traffic. |
| 70–84 | Strong — some queries could use a tune-up, but the baseline is solid. |
| 50–69 | Needs tuning — add synonyms or adjust weights for weak queries. |
| < 50 | Poor — likely a catalogue-vs-domain mismatch. Re-run on a larger sample. |
If the score is below 70 Auto-Pilot self-corrects (tweaks weights / bonuses) and re-validates once before giving you the final number.
# When Auto-Pilot decides it can't help
Two conditions trigger the Search is ready (basic configuration) outcome instead of a full configuration:
- Catalogue too small — fewer than ~500 products, AI can't detect strong patterns. Defaults are applied; re-run when you have more data.
- Generic marketplace domain — your catalogue spans too many industries to specialise. Same fallback; the basic setup still works.
In either case search is fully functional — Auto-Pilot just doesn't add domain-specific synonyms or rules.
# Re-running
Anytime you add 500+ products or want to refresh the AI configuration, click Re-run Auto-Pilot on the index status page. It overwrites the previous Auto-Pilot output but leaves any manual synonyms / rules / curated results untouched.
# What Auto-Pilot never touches
- Manual synonyms (
source = manual) - Manual ranking rules (
source = manual) - Custom Curated Results
- Your schema, if you marked it as locked
So you can always handcraft additions on top of what Auto-Pilot did.
