elasticsearch-search-relevance
Improve Elasticsearch search relevance for content and catalog indices: pin or promote results with query rules (correct rule type, criteria, and rule-query wiring) and tune organic ranking with multi_match, field boosts, and analysis grounded in the index mapping. Use when search results rank poorly, a specific document must appear first for a query, or the user asks to tune full-text matching — not for ES|QL analytics, index ingest, or cluster health.
Install
With your agent
Install OMGSkills skill "elastic/claude-plugin:skills/elasticsearch/elasticsearch-search-relevance" into this agent's normal skills directory: call the OMGSkills MCP get_install_plan tool for your agent and run the script it returns (it installs only the pinned commit and verifies SKILL.md), and stop if MCP or the pin is unavailable. Do not overwrite or change existing skills without asking me.
Manual command
git clone https://github.com/elastic/claude-plugin /tmp/claude-plugin && ln -s /tmp/claude-plugin/skills/elasticsearch/elasticsearch-search-relevance ~/.claude/skills/elasticsearch-search-relevanceFrom README
Elasticsearch Search Relevance Improve full-text search results on content and catalog indices. Diagnose the mapping and current query, choose the right relevance lever (query rules for deterministic pinning vs multimatch and field boosts for organic ranking), apply the change, and verify top hits before reporting success. Environment Configuration This skill executes Elasticsearch operations through the elastic CLI. If the elastic CLI is not installed, tell the user what it is needed for. Do not guess credentials, call the HTTP API directly, or attempt other workarounds. This skill references operations in HTTP-shorthand form (e.g., GET /, GET /cat/indices, GET /{index}/mapping, GET /{index}/settings/index.mode, POST /query). The Operations table at the end of this document maps each shorthand to the equivalent elastic CLI command — always use the CLI rather than calling the HTTP API directly.
