|  `consistency?`             | [`VectorConsistency`](../../types/type-aliases/VectorConsistency.md) | Store-wide read-after-write guarantee for writes. Overrides the adapter's declared [VectorStoreCapabilities.consistency](../../types/interfaces/VectorStoreCapabilities.md#property-consistency) default; a per-operation `.consistency()` on the builder overrides this in turn (precedence: per-op > store option > adapter default). Ignored by strongly-consistent adapters.

|  `metric?`                       | [`DistanceMetric`](../../types/type-aliases/DistanceMetric.md)       | Distance metric used for similarity (e.g. cosine, euclidean, dot). Defaults to the adapter's preferred metric.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                           | [`BaseVectorStoreOptions`](../../types/interfaces/BaseVectorStoreOptions.md).[`metric`](../../types/interfaces/BaseVectorStoreOptions.md#property-metric)                       | [batteries/vector/types.ts:116](https://github.com/NHTIO/ADK/blob/v1.20260609.0/src/batteries/vector/types.ts#L116)                     |
