Use this page when your orchestration uses **AutoGen** (ConversableAgent, GroupChat, function tools) and you see tool loops, wrong snippets, role mixing, or answers that flip between runs. The table maps symptoms to exact WFGY fix pages and gives a minimal recipe you can paste.
**Acceptance targets**
- ΔS(question, retrieved) ≤ 0.45
- Coverage ≥ 0.70 to the intended section or record
- λ stays convergent across 3 paraphrases and 2 seeds
- E_resonance stays flat on long windows

## Typical breakpoints and the right fix
- **Function tool calls wait on each other or retry forever**
Fix: lock roles, add timeouts, and echo a strict JSON schema in every tool response.
Open: [Multi-Agent Problems](https://github.com/onestardao/WFGY/blob/main/ProblemMap/Multi-Agent_Problems.md) · [Logic Collapse](https://github.com/onestardao/WFGY/blob/main/ProblemMap/logic-collapse.md)
- **Two agents overwrite the same memory namespace**
Fix: stamp `mem_rev` and `mem_hash`, split read and write, forbid cross section reuse.

- **High similarity yet wrong meaning**
Fix: metric or index mismatch, or mixed write and read embeddings.
Open: [Embedding ≠ Semantic](https://github.com/onestardao/WFGY/blob/main/ProblemMap/embedding-vs-semantic.md)
- **Hybrid stack worse than a single retriever**
Fix: lock two stage query and add a deterministic reranker.
Open: [Query Parsing Split](https://github.com/onestardao/WFGY/blob/main/ProblemMap/patterns/pattern_query_parsing_split.md) · [Rerankers](https://github.com/onestardao/WFGY/blob/main/ProblemMap/rerankers.md)
- **Facts exist in the store yet never show up**
Fix: fragmentation or sharding misalignment.
Open: [Vectorstore Fragmentation](https://github.com/onestardao/WFGY/blob/main/ProblemMap/patterns/pattern_vectorstore_fragmentation.md)
- **Citations inconsistent across agents or steps**
Fix: require cite then explain and lock snippet fields.

- **Long GroupChat runs change style and logic**
Fix: split the plan and rejoin with a BBCR bridge.
Open: [Context Drift](https://github.com/onestardao/WFGY/blob/main/ProblemMap/context-drift.md) · [Entropy Collapse](https://github.com/onestardao/WFGY/blob/main/ProblemMap/entropy-collapse.md)

## Fix in 60 seconds
1) **Measure ΔS**
Compute ΔS(question, retrieved) and ΔS(retrieved, expected anchor).
Stable < 0.40, transitional 0.40 to 0.60, risk 0.60.
2) **Probe λ_observe**
Do a k sweep in retrieval (5, 10, 20). If ΔS stays high and flat, suspect metric or index mismatch.
Reorder prompt headers. If λ flips, lock the schema and clamp variance with BBAM.
3) **Apply the module**
- Retrieval drift BBMC plus [Data Contracts](https://github.com/onestardao/WFGY/blob/main/ProblemMap/data-contracts.md)
- Reasoning collapse BBCR bridge plus BBAM, verify with [Logic Collapse](https://github.com/onestardao/WFGY/blob/main/ProblemMap/logic-collapse.md)
- Hallucination re entry after a fix [Pattern: Hallucination Re-entry](https://github.com/onestardao/WFGY/blob/main/ProblemMap/patterns/pattern_hallucination_reentry.md)
4) **Verify**
Coverage 0.70. ΔS 0.45. Three paraphrases and two seeds with λ convergent.

## Minimal AutoGen topology with WFGY checks
```python
# Pseudocode: focus on control points you must keep
from autogen import ConversableAgent, GroupChat, GroupChatManager
user = ConversableAgent("user", system_message="task only")
retriever = ConversableAgent("retriever", tools=[search_tool])
reasoner = ConversableAgent("reasoner", tools=[rag_tool])
auditor = ConversableAgent("auditor", system_message="cite-then-explain, schema-locked")
group = GroupChat(
agents=[user, retriever, reasoner, auditor],
messages=[],
max_round=8,
speaker_selection_method="auto"
)
manager = GroupChatManager(groupchat=group)
# guardrails to add around the loop:
# 1) every tool result must echo the JSON schema
# 2) each step writes {snippet_id, section_id, source_url, offsets, tokens}
# 3) after generation run WFGY checks and stop if ΔS ≥ 0.60 or λ divergent
````
**What this enforces**
* Tools return strict JSON and echo the schema. Free text cannot pollute arguments.
* Snippet fields are fixed and citations come first.
* Post generation WFGY checks can halt the run when ΔS is high or λ flips.

## AutoGen specific gotchas
* Function schema is too loose and allows mixed JSON and free text. Lock parameters and echo schema on every call.
See [Prompt Injection](https://github.com/onestardao/WFGY/blob/main/ProblemMap/prompt-injection.md)
* GroupChat runs are too long and entropy rises. Split the plan and rejoin with a BBCR bridge.
See [Context Drift](https://github.com/onestardao/WFGY/blob/main/ProblemMap/context-drift.md)
* Shared memory overwrites between agents. Add `mem_rev` and `mem_hash`, forbid cross section reuse.
See [memory-overwrite](https://github.com/onestardao/WFGY/blob/main/ProblemMap/multi-agent-chaos/memory-overwrite.md)
* Retrieval and rerank are inconsistent across agents. Unify analyzer and metric or add a reranker.
See [Rerankers](https://github.com/onestardao/WFGY/blob/main/ProblemMap/rerankers.md)

## When to escalate
* ΔS remains 0.60
Rebuild the index using the checklists and verify with a small gold set.
[Retrieval Playbook](https://github.com/onestardao/WFGY/blob/main/ProblemMap/retrieval-playbook.md)
* Identical input yields different answers across runs
Check version skew and session state.
