Scans visible vectors in a collection starting at an optional key. Each item includes the key, embedding, metadata, and commit metadata exposed by the executor output.
Paginated responses use opaque cursors. Clients should pass the returned cursor back to the same command shape and must not parse cursor contents.
Examples
Scan stored vectors from the start, in key order.
CLI
$ strata vector collection create docs 3 cosine
$ strata vector upsert docs a [1.0,0.0,0.0]
$ strata vector upsert docs b [0.0,1.0,0.0]
