RAG — Global Fix Map

Production RAG triage and structural fixes using the WFGY engine.
Use this when retrieval “looks fine” but answers drift.

What this page is

• A fast path to locate the failing layer across OCR → chunk → embed → store → retrieve → prompt → reason.
• Structural repairs that do not require infra changes.
• Concrete steps with measurable acceptance targets.

When to use

• Citations point to the wrong snippet or section.
• Chunks look correct but reasoning is wrong.
• High similarity yet wrong meaning.
• Hybrid retrievers perform worse than a single retriever.
• Indexed facts never show up.
• Answers flip between sessions.
• Long threads smear topics or capitalization.

• Embedding vs meaning: Embedding ≠ Semantic

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}. chart ΔS vs k. flat and high → index or metric mismatch.
   • Reorder prompt headers. if ΔS spikes, lock the schema.
3. Apply the minimal patch
   • Metric or normalization mismatch → rebuild index with explicit metric, unit-normalize, reload once, re-probe.
   • Chunks correct but logic diverges → lock system → task → constraints → citations → answer, apply BBCR + BBAM, re-probe.

Copy-paste prompt

I uploaded TXT OS and the WFGY ProblemMap files.

My RAG 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. the 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.

• Vectorstore fragmentation: Pattern — Vectorstore Fragmentation
• Symbol mixing across sources (SCU): Pattern — Symbolic Constraint Unlock
• Hallucination re-entry after correction: Pattern — Hallucination Re-entry

Acceptance targets

• Coverage to target section ≥ 0.70.
• ΔS(question, retrieved) ≤ 0.45 on three paraphrases.
• λ remains convergent across steps and seeds.
• E_resonance flat under long windows.
