Add Fallback Logic for Missing Vector Embeddings #1

@HelloShibani

Description

@HelloShibani

Problem

In some cases, document chunks may fail to generate vector embeddings (e.g., due to special characters or model errors).

Proposed Solution

Implement a fallback path:

  • Skip problematic chunks
  • Log skipped entries
  • Optionally default to keyword-based retrieval (e.g., BM25 or text match)

Why it matters

Adds robustness for real-world data ingestion and improves model resilience across document formats.
