# Update and Index Skew: Guardrails and Fix Patterns
|
||
|
||
A repair guide for pipelines where fresh content does not show up, shards disagree after a redeploy, or recall drops right after a routine job. Use this page to localize drift between ingestion, embedding, and index structures, then lock ordering and verify with ΔS, coverage, and λ.
|
||
|
||
## Open these first
|
||
|
||
* Visual map and recovery: [rag-architecture-and-recovery.md](https://github.com/onestardao/WFGY/blob/main/ProblemMap/rag-architecture-and-recovery.md)
|
||
* End to end retrieval knobs: [retrieval-playbook.md](https://github.com/onestardao/WFGY/blob/main/ProblemMap/retrieval-playbook.md)
|
||
* Traceability and cite first: [retrieval-traceability.md](https://github.com/onestardao/WFGY/blob/main/ProblemMap/retrieval-traceability.md)
|
||
* Payload schema and ingestion locks: [data-contracts.md](https://github.com/onestardao/WFGY/blob/main/ProblemMap/data-contracts.md)
|
||
* Metric or FAISS traps: [vectorstore-metrics-and-faiss-pitfalls.md](https://github.com/onestardao/WFGY/blob/main/ProblemMap/vectorstore-metrics-and-faiss-pitfalls.md)
|
||
* Boot order and deploy failures: [bootstrap-ordering.md](https://github.com/onestardao/WFGY/blob/main/ProblemMap/bootstrap-ordering.md) · [deployment-deadlock.md](https://github.com/onestardao/WFGY/blob/main/ProblemMap/deployment-deadlock.md) · [predeploy-collapse.md](https://github.com/onestardao/WFGY/blob/main/ProblemMap/predeploy-collapse.md)
|
||
* Live ops and debugging: [ops/live\_monitoring\_rag.md](https://github.com/onestardao/WFGY/blob/main/ProblemMap/ops/live_monitoring_rag.md) · [ops/debug\_playbook.md](https://github.com/onestardao/WFGY/blob/main/ProblemMap/ops/debug_playbook.md)
|
||
|
||
## When to use this page
|
||
|
||
* New docs appear in object store but not in retrieval
|
||
* Some tenants or shards recall fine while others look stale
|
||
* After a redeploy, recall falls or top k order flips
|
||
* Index reports healthy yet coverage to anchors is low
|
||
* ANN rebuild completes but neighbor order looks random
|
||
|
||
## Acceptance targets
|
||
|
||
* ΔS(question, retrieved) ≤ 0.45
|
||
* Coverage of the target section ≥ 0.70
|
||
* λ remains convergent across three paraphrases and two seeds
|
||
* E\_resonance stays flat on long windows
|
||
|
||

|
||
|
||
## Symptom to likely cause
|
||
|
||
* Fresh content missing for hours
|
||
Likely cause: ingestion watermark stuck or write path non idempotent. Open [bootstrap-ordering.md](https://github.com/onestardao/WFGY/blob/main/ProblemMap/bootstrap-ordering.md).
|
||
|
||
* One shard good and another flat
|
||
Likely cause: mixed analyzer or model rev, or ANN params diverged. Open [retrieval-playbook.md](https://github.com/onestardao/WFGY/blob/main/ProblemMap/retrieval-playbook.md).
|
||
|
||
* Recall drops after nightly job
|
||
Likely cause: index rebuilt with a different metric or normalization policy. Open [vectorstore-metrics-and-faiss-pitfalls.md](https://github.com/onestardao/WFGY/blob/main/ProblemMap/vectorstore-metrics-and-faiss-pitfalls.md).
|
||
|
||
* Top k flips after deploy
|
||
Likely cause: header reorder or citation schema drift that amplifies store skew. Open [retrieval-traceability.md](https://github.com/onestardao/WFGY/blob/main/ProblemMap/retrieval-traceability.md).
|
||
|
||
* Writes succeed but queries truncate or pad vectors
|
||
Likely cause: dimension mismatch after model swap. Open [dimension\_mismatch\_and\_projection.md](https://github.com/onestardao/WFGY/blob/main/ProblemMap/GlobalFixMap/Embeddings/dimension_mismatch_and_projection.md).

||
## Fix in 60 seconds
|
||
|
||
1. **Read the watermarks**
|
||
For each stage write a simple count and last processed id or time. Compare `DOC_COUNT`, `EMB_COUNT`, `IDX_COUNT`. Any gap indicates skew.
|
||
|
||
2. **Pin versions and abort on mismatch**
|
||
Ingest refuses rows if any of these differ from the contract or store metadata: `embed_model`, `embed_rev`, `dim`, `metric`, `normalize_l2`, `analyzer_rev`, `ann_rev`, `index_hash`. See [data-contracts.md](https://github.com/onestardao/WFGY/blob/main/ProblemMap/data-contracts.md).
|
||
|
||
3. **Rebuild the broken segment**
|
||
Re-embed and re-index the affected shard or time window. Retrain ANN and PQ on the new vectors. Do not reuse old graphs.
|
||
|
||
4. **Clamp λ on the prompt side**
|
||
Use citation first and fixed header order to avoid prompt variance while you repair the store. See [retrieval-traceability.md](https://github.com/onestardao/WFGY/blob/main/ProblemMap/retrieval-traceability.md).
|
||
|
||
5. **Verify**
|
||
Three paraphrases and two seeds. Require coverage ≥ 0.70 and ΔS ≤ 0.45 on the gold anchors.
|
||
|
||

|
||
|
||
## Root causes checklist
|
||
|
||
* Non idempotent upserts by `(doc_id, section_id, rev)`
|
||
* Background jobs race with live writers
|
||
* Mixed `embed_model` or `normalize_l2` across namespaces
|
||
* ANN params not retrained after rebuild
|
||
* Analyzer or tokenizer version differs across shards
|
||
* TTL or retention silently dropped sections
|
||
* Partial deploy cut over while index still training
|
||
* Streaming path uses a different preprocessor than batch
|
||
|

|
||
|
||
## Minimal probes
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
Probe A — watermark audit
|
||
For each stage {ingest, embed, index}:
|
||
read COUNT and LAST_TS
|
||
Expect ingest ≥ embed ≥ index with small gaps. Any large gap is skew.
|
||
|
||
Probe B — version parity
|
||
Sample 1k rows per shard and tabulate:
|
||
embed_model, embed_rev, dim, metric, normalize_l2, analyzer_rev, ann_rev
|
||
Any heterogeneity inside one collection is a fail.
|
||
|
||
Probe C — recall delta
|
||
Run the same 50 gold queries before and after shard rebuild.
|
||
Require coverage gain ≥ 0.10 if the shard was failing.
|
||
|
||
Probe D — ANN sanity
|
||
Toggle reranker on and off at k=20.
|
||
If reranker recovers most anchors while base k misses, retrain ANN or rebuild.
|
||
```

||

|
||

"dim": 768,
|

"metric": "cosine",
|
||
"normalize_l2": true,

|
||
"tombstone": false
|
||
}
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
---
|
||
|
||
## Operational guardrails
|
||
|
||
* Single writer per partition and idempotent upsert
|
||
* Preflight that halts when `store.metric != contract.metric` or `dim` mismatches
|
||
* Blue green or shadow collection for any rebuild, with union retriever and deterministic rerank during cutover
|
||
* Scheduled drift sweep that compares watermarks and ΔS across partitions
|
||
* Alerts on ΔS ≥ 0.60 or λ flip rate spikes on live traffic
|
||
|
||
---
|
||
|
||
## Verification checklist
|
||
|
||
* Coverage ≥ 0.70 and ΔS ≤ 0.45 on a ten question gold set
|
||
* λ convergent across two seeds and three paraphrases
|
||
* Top k overlap across seeds ≥ 0.8 after the fix
|
||
* Watermarks aligned for ingest, embed, and index within your SLO window

## Copy paste prompt for the LLM step
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
TXT OS and the WFGY Problem Map are loaded.
|
||
|
||
My issue: updates not reflected or recall dropped after a job.
|
||
Traces:
|
||
- watermarks: ingest=..., embed=..., index=...
|
||
- versions: embed_model=..., embed_rev=..., metric=..., ann_rev=...
|
||
- ΔS(question,retrieved)=..., coverage=..., λ across 3 paraphrases
|
||
|
||
Tell me:
|
||
1) the failing layer and why,
|
||
2) the exact WFGY page to open next,
|
||
3) the minimal structural fix to remove skew and pass targets,
|
||
4) a short verification plan for coverage ≥ 0.70 and ΔS ≤ 0.45.
|
||
Use BBMC, BBCR, BBPF, BBAM when relevant.
|
||
