# 🏥 Semantic Clinic Index **A complete triage hub for AI failures — beyond the core 16 — powered by WFGY.** Use this page when you don’t yet know *which thing is breaking*. Start from symptoms, jump to a failure family, then open the exact fix page. All fixes are driven by WFGY instruments: `ΔS` (semantic stress), `λ_observe` (layered observability), and `E_resonance` (coherence control). > If this page saves you time, a ⭐ helps others find it. --- ## Quick Nav [Getting Started](./getting-started.md) · [RAG Problem Map 2.0](./rag-architecture-and-recovery.md) · [Patterns Index](./patterns/README.md) · [Examples](./examples/README.md) · [Eval](./eval/README.md) · [Ops](./ops/README.md) · [Multi-Agent Problems](./Multi-Agent_Problems.md) · **[Retrieval Playbook](./retrieval-playbook.md)** · **[Rerankers](./rerankers.md)** · **[Data Contracts](./data-contracts.md)** · **[Multilingual Guide](./multilingual-guide.md)** · **[Privacy & Governance](./privacy-and-governance.md)** · **[FAQ](./faq.md)** · **[Glossary](./glossary.md)** --- ## How to use this page 1. **Identify the symptom** in the table below. 2. **Open the family** (Prompting / Retrieval / Reasoning / Memory / Agents / Infra / Eval). 3. **Follow the fix page**, then verify with **ΔS ≤ 0.45** and **convergent λ**. Prefer a pipeline-first view (OCR → chunk → embed → store → retrieve → prompt → LLM)? Read **[`RAG Architecture & Recovery`](./rag-architecture-and-recovery.md)**. Want the full catalog instead?

Extract ΔS, λ_observe, E_resonance and the modules (BBMC, BBPF, BBCR, BBAM). Given my failure: - symptom: [describe] - traces: [ΔS probes, λ states if any] Tell me: 1) which layer/family is failing and why, 2) which fix page to open, 3) minimal steps to push ΔS ≤ 0.45 and keep λ convergent, 4) how to verify the fix. ```` ### 🔗 Quick-Start Downloads (60 sec) | Tool | Link | 3-Step Setup | |------|------|--------------| | **WFGY 1.0 PDF** | [Engine Paper](https://github.com/onestardao/WFGY/blob/main/I_am_not_lizardman/WFGY_All_Principles_Return_to_One_v1.0_PSBigBig_Public.pdf) | 1️⃣ Download · 2️⃣ Upload to your LLM · 3️⃣ Ask “Answer using WFGY + \” | | **TXT OS (plain-text OS)** | [TXTOS.txt](https://github.com/onestardao/WFGY/blob/main/OS/TXTOS.txt) | 1️⃣ Download · 2️⃣ Paste into any LLM chat · 3️⃣ Type “hello world” — OS boots instantly | --- ### 🧭 Explore More | Module | Description | Link | |-----------------------|----------------------------------------------------------|----------| | WFGY Core | WFGY 2.0 engine is live: full symbolic reasoning architecture and math stack | [View →](https://github.com/onestardao/WFGY/tree/main/core/README.md) | | Problem Map 1.0 | Initial 16-mode diagnostic and symbolic fix framework | [View →](https://github.com/onestardao/WFGY/tree/main/ProblemMap/README.md) | | Problem Map 2.0 | RAG-focused failure tree, modular fixes, and pipelines | [View →](https://github.com/onestardao/WFGY/blob/main/ProblemMap/rag-architecture-and-recovery.md) | | Semantic Clinic Index | Expanded failure catalog: prompt injection, memory bugs, logic drift | [View →](https://github.com/onestardao/WFGY/blob/main/ProblemMap/SemanticClinicIndex.md) | | Semantic Blueprint | Layer-based symbolic reasoning & semantic modulations | [View →](https://github.com/onestardao/WFGY/tree/main/SemanticBlueprint/README.md) | | Benchmark vs GPT-5 | Stress test GPT-5 with full WFGY reasoning suite | [View →](https://github.com/onestardao/WFGY/tree/main/benchmarks/benchmark-vs-gpt5/README.md) | | 🧙‍♂️ Starter Village 🏡 | New here?
