# Eval Observability — Coverage Tracking A focused module to monitor **retrieval coverage** during eval and live runs. Coverage answers the key question: *“Did we retrieve enough of the right section to support the answer?”* --- ## Why coverage tracking matters - **False negatives**: The right fact exists, but snippets cover too little of the section. - **Over-fragmentation**: Documents chunked too aggressively result in coverage <0.50 despite correct snippets. - **Hallucinations**: When coverage is low, LLMs often fill gaps with fabrications. - **Eval blind spots**: Benchmarks without coverage probes miss systematic recall failures. --- ## Core definition Coverage is defined as: ```text coverage = retrieved_tokens_in_target_section / total_tokens_in_target_section ```` * **Target section** = gold label or expected answer span. * **Threshold** = minimum 0.70 in most RAG tasks. * **Tolerance** = allow 5–10% batch queries below threshold before raising alert. --- ## Probe design 1. **Annotate gold sets** For each eval question, mark the expected source section IDs and token spans. 2. **Measure per-query coverage** Count how many tokens from expected span were retrieved. Normalize by total tokens in span. 3. **Batch aggregation** Track percentage of queries below threshold. Report average coverage ± variance. 4. **Drift detection** Compare against historical baseline (previous model or retriever version). If drop >0.05, escalate to retriever/infrastructure team. --- ## Alert thresholds | Metric | Warning | Critical | | ------------------ | ---------- | ---------- | | Per-query coverage | <0.70 | <0.60 | | Batch pass rate | <0.90 | <0.80 | | Drift vs baseline | drop >0.05 | drop >0.10 | --- ## Example probe code (pseudo) ```python def track_coverage(retrieved, target_span): overlap = count_tokens(retrieved, target_span) coverage = overlap / len(target_span) return coverage for q in eval_batch: cov = track_coverage(q.retrieved_tokens, q.gold_span) if cov < 0.70: alerts.append({"qid": q.id, "coverage": cov}) ``` --- ## Common pitfalls * **Ignoring multi-section answers** → coverage must sum across all required sections. * **Only measuring top-1 snippet** → always include top-k, otherwise underestimation occurs. * **Static thresholds** → thresholds should adapt to doc size and retrieval depth. * **No historical baseline** → without drift tracking, regressions pass unnoticed. --- ## Reporting dashboards * **Histograms** of per-query coverage distribution. * **Trend lines** for batch averages across eval sets. * **Drift deltas** vs baseline runs. * **Heatmaps** showing coverage by document or domain. --- ### 🔗 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?
