Vector dimension must be ${this.dim}

Error message

Vector dimension must be ${this.dim}

What it means

The parsed vector's length differs from the vector-dim reported by VINFO for this set. Redis vector sets require every element's dimension to match the set's; the client blocks the mismatch before sending VADD (the server would otherwise reject it). The expected dim is interpolated into the message.

Solutions

1. Re-copy the full embedding and count components against the dim hint in the header
2. Regenerate the embedding with the model whose dimension matches the set
3. If the model changed permanently, create a new vector set with the new dimension

const dim = Number(info['vector-dim']);
if (dim && vector.length !== dim) {
  return this.$message.error(`Vector has ${vector.length} components; set requires ${dim}`);
}

const matchesDim = (vector, dim) => !dim || vector.length === dim;

When it happens

Trigger: Pasting a 1536-dim embedding into a 768-dim set; dropping or adding one component when copying; switching embedding models without recreating the set.

Common situations: Model upgrades (e.g. text-embedding dims 384 -> 768); manual copy-paste truncation; mixing embeddings from two models in one key.
