A compact field guide to stabilize Make.com scenarios that touch RAG, agents, or long pipelines. Use the checks below to localize failure, then jump to the exact WFGY fix page.

## Fix in 60 seconds
1) **Measure ΔS**
- Compute ΔS(question, retrieved) and ΔS(retrieved, expected anchor).
- Thresholds: stable < 0.40, transitional 0.40–0.60, risk ≥ 0.60.
2) **Probe with λ_observe**
- Vary k ∈ {5, 10, 20}. Flat high curve → index or metric mismatch.
- Reorder prompt headers. If ΔS spikes, lock the schema.
3) **Apply the module**
- Retrieval drift → BBMC + Data Contracts.
- Reasoning collapse → BBCR bridge + BBAM variance clamp.
- Dead ends in long runs → BBPF alternate path.
4) **Re-test**
- Aim for ΔS ≤ 0.45, λ convergent on 3 paraphrases, coverage ≥ 0.70.
**Copy-paste prompt**
```
I uploaded TXT OS and the WFGY Problem Map files.
My Make.com bug:
* symptom: \[brief]
* traces: \[ΔS(question,retrieved)=…, ΔS(retrieved,anchor)=…, λ states]
Tell me:
1. which layer is failing and why,
2. which exact fix page to open from this repo,
3. minimal steps to push ΔS ≤ 0.45 and keep λ convergent,
4. how to verify the fix with a reproducible test.
Use BBMC/BBPF/BBCR/BBAM when relevant.

## Make.com specific failure patterns
- **Array aggregator or iterator changes chunk boundaries.**
Symptoms: citations miss, answers plausible but wrong.
Open: [Hallucination](https://github.com/onestardao/WFGY/blob/main/ProblemMap/hallucination.md), [Data Contracts](https://github.com/onestardao/WFGY/blob/main/ProblemMap/data-contracts.md).
- **Hybrid retrieval through HTTP modules splits query tokens.**
HyDE or BM25 combined with dense retriever behaves worse than single retriever.
Open: [Query Parsing Split](https://github.com/onestardao/WFGY/blob/main/ProblemMap/patterns/pattern_query_parsing_split.md), [Retrieval Playbook](https://github.com/onestardao/WFGY/blob/main/ProblemMap/retrieval-playbook.md).
- **Vectorstore writes use different normalization than reads.**
Cosine vs inner product inconsistency or missing unit norm.
Open: [Embedding ≠ Semantic](https://github.com/onestardao/WFGY/blob/main/ProblemMap/embedding-vs-semantic.md), [Retrieval Traceability](https://github.com/onestardao/WFGY/blob/main/ProblemMap/retrieval-traceability.md).
- **Scenario concurrency creates state races across branches.**
Old facts re-appear after correction.
Open: [Hallucination Re-entry](https://github.com/onestardao/WFGY/blob/main/ProblemMap/patterns/pattern_hallucination_reentry.md), apply BBCR + BBAM and lock schema with Data Contracts.
- **Long JSON logs stuffed into prompts.**
Attention melts, capitalization drifts, topic smear.
Open: [Entropy Collapse](https://github.com/onestardao/WFGY/blob/main/ProblemMap/entropy-collapse.md), [Context Drift](https://github.com/onestardao/WFGY/blob/main/ProblemMap/context-drift.md).
- **Partial ingestion before tools fire.**
First call after a deploy or schedule fires too early.
Open: [Bootstrap Ordering](https://github.com/onestardao/WFGY/blob/main/ProblemMap/bootstrap-ordering.md), [Pre-Deploy Collapse](https://github.com/onestardao/WFGY/blob/main/ProblemMap/predeploy-collapse.md), [Pattern: Bootstrap Deadlock](https://github.com/onestardao/WFGY/blob/main/ProblemMap/patterns/pattern_bootstrap_deadlock.md).
- **Fragmented vectorstore across modules.**
Some facts indexed but never retrieved.
Open: [Vectorstore Fragmentation](https://github.com/onestardao/WFGY/blob/main/ProblemMap/patterns/pattern_vectorstore_fragmentation.md).
- **Session flips across tabs or scenario runs.**
Writes happen under a different memory revision.
Open: [Memory Desync](https://github.com/onestardao/WFGY/blob/main/ProblemMap/patterns/pattern_memory_desync.md).

## Acceptance targets
- Coverage to target section ≥ 0.70.
- ΔS(question, retrieved) ≤ 0.45 on three paraphrases.
- λ remains convergent across runs and seeds.
- E_resonance flat on long windows after BBAM.
## Escalate when
- ΔS stays ≥ 0.60 after retriever and schema fixes → rebuild index with explicit metric and persist once.
- λ flips divergent as soon as you mix two sources → lock per-source fences in [Data Contracts](https://github.com/onestardao/WFGY/blob/main/ProblemMap/data-contracts.md).
- First task after schedule or deploy keeps failing → apply the boot fence in [Bootstrap Ordering](https://github.com/onestardao/WFGY/blob/main/ProblemMap/bootstrap-ordering.md) and verify with [ops live monitoring](https://github.com/onestardao/WFGY/blob/main/ProblemMap/ops/live_monitoring_rag.md).
