Rag.NET.Reranking.Cohere

Cohere Rerank integration for Rag.NET: retrieved chunks are re-scored by Cohere's managed cross-encoder (rerank-english-v3.0 by default) before answer synthesis — the quality of a cross-encoder without hosting one.

Install

dotnet add package Rag.NET.Reranking.Cohere

Install alongside the core pipeline package (dotnet add package Rag.NET), which supplies the AddRagNet(...) builder the reranker registers into.

Setup

Inside your AddRagNet(...) builder callback:

using Rag.NET.Reranking.Cohere;

rag.UseCohereReranking(o =>
{
    o.ApiKey = Environment.GetEnvironmentVariable("COHERE_API_KEY")!;
});

Example

using Rag.NET.Reranking.Cohere;

rag.UseCohereReranking(o =>
{
    o.ApiKey = Environment.GetEnvironmentVariable("COHERE_API_KEY")!;
    o.Model  = "rerank-english-v3.0";  // default; multilingual models available
    o.TopN   = 5;                      // default: results kept after reranking
});

Reranking then applies to every retrieval with UseReranking = true (the RetrievalOptions default). Prefer fully local reranking? See Rag.NET.Reranking.Onnx.
