# rag-chunk-evidence-identity Specification
|
||||
|
||||
## Purpose
|
||||
TBD - created by archiving change rag-chunk-evidence-identity-dedup. Update Purpose after archive.
|
||||
## Requirements
|
||||
### Requirement: Retrieval candidates SHALL carry chunk-level identity
|
||||
|
||||
The knowledge retrieval pipeline SHALL attach stable identity fields to each retrieved candidate and resulting evidence block: document id when available, chunk index when available, and an `evidenceKey` derived by the identity rules in design.
|
||||
|
||||
#### Scenario: Identity extracted from metadata
|
||||
|
||||
- **WHEN** a vector hit includes metadata `docId` (or `doc_id`) and `chunkIndex` (or `chunk_index`)
|
||||
- **THEN** the candidate SHALL set `docId`, `chunkIndex`, and `evidenceKey` to `docId#chunk-{chunkIndex}`
|
||||
|
||||
#### Scenario: Fallback identity without chunk index
|
||||
|
||||
- **WHEN** chunk index is missing but vector id is present
|
||||
- **THEN** the candidate SHALL use `evidenceKey` of the form `vector:{id}`
|
||||
|
||||
### Requirement: Evidence deduplication SHALL be chunk-scoped
|
||||
|
||||
Post-processing SHALL treat two candidates as duplicates only when they share the same `evidenceKey`. Different chunks of the same source SHALL remain separate evidence blocks subject to per-document caps.
|
||||
|
||||
#### Scenario: Same document different chunks are kept
|
||||
|
||||
- **WHEN** two candidates share the same source/docId but different chunk indexes
|
||||
- **THEN** post-processing SHALL keep both as separate evidence blocks unless a per-document cap removes the lower-ranked one
|
||||
|
||||
#### Scenario: True duplicate keys merge without replacing higher-ranked content
|
||||
|
||||
- **WHEN** two candidates share the same `evidenceKey`
|
||||
- **THEN** post-processing SHALL keep a single block
|
||||
- **AND** SHALL preserve the higher-ranked content
|
||||
- **AND** MAY merge hit reasons
|
||||
|
||||
### Requirement: Post-processing SHALL enforce max chunks per document
|
||||
|
||||
The system SHALL limit accepted evidence blocks per document id using configuration `rag.max-chunks-per-document` with default 2.
|
||||
|
||||
#### Scenario: Excess chunks from one document are dropped
|
||||
|
||||
- **WHEN** more than N ranked chunks belong to the same docId and N equals the configured max
|
||||
- **THEN** only the top N by ranking score SHALL remain in evidence blocks
|
||||
|
||||
### Requirement: Retrieval width and return width SHALL be separate
|
||||
|
||||
The lookup pipeline SHALL use `rag.retrieve-k` for vector recall width and `rag.return-n` for maximum evidence blocks after post-processing. A legacy `rag.top-k` MAY act as fallback when the new keys are absent.
|
||||
|
||||
#### Scenario: retrieve-k widens recall without unbounded return
|
||||
|
||||
- **WHEN** `retrieve-k` is 20 and `return-n` is 5
|
||||
- **THEN** the search port is asked for up to 20 candidates
|
||||
- **AND** the assembled result contains at most 5 evidence blocks before Agent projection budgets
|
||||
|
||||
### Requirement: Agent projection SHALL preserve distinct chunk evidence
|
||||
|
||||
The RAG projector SHALL deduplicate Agent-facing evidence by chunk-scoped evidence identity. It SHALL NOT drop a second chunk solely because `source` matches a previous block.
|
||||
|
||||
#### Scenario: Same source different evidence keys both project
|
||||
|
||||
- **WHEN** two evidence blocks have different evidence keys (or chunk-scoped document ids) and the same source
|
||||
- **AND** projection budgets still allow both
|
||||
- **THEN** both SHALL appear in the projected evidence list
|
||||
|
||||
#### Scenario: Projected document_id is chunk-scoped
|
||||
|
||||
- **WHEN** an evidence block has evidenceKey `docA#chunk-2`
|
||||
- **THEN** the projected `document_id` SHALL be that evidenceKey (or an equivalent chunk-scoped id)
|
||||
- **AND** `source` MAY still be the document path or doc id
|
||||
|
||||
### Requirement: Lookup pipeline SHALL call a KnowledgeSearchPort boundary
|
||||
|
||||
Semantic candidate fetch SHALL go through a `KnowledgeSearchPort` abstraction rather than embedding new long-term SDK-specific hybrid logic into the tool orchestrator.
|
||||
|
||||
#### Scenario: Default dense adapter
|
||||
|
||||
- **WHEN** search mode is dense-only (this change)
|
||||
- **THEN** the port implementation MAY delegate to the existing vector search facade
|
||||
- **AND** the retriever consumes port hits normalized into candidates with identity fields

## Purpose
|
||||
|
||||
Define bounded RAG and Mock query-log projections that execute through the stage 3A ToolBoundary and expose only the frozen ACI contracts to the Agent.
|
||||
|
||||
## Requirements
|
||||
|
||||
### Requirement: RAG projection SHALL expose bounded document evidence only
|
||||
|
||||
The RAG adapter SHALL accept the logical `query` request, execute the existing knowledge tool through ToolBoundary, and project only `RagToolResult` fields. Context packs, retrieval traces, rerank traces, scores, hit reasons, domains, messages and full document bodies SHALL NOT appear in the Agent result.

The RAG adapter SHALL accept the logical `query` request, execute the existing knowledge tool through ToolBoundary, and project only `RagToolResult` fields. Context packs, retrieval traces, rerank traces, scores, hit reasons, domains, messages and full document bodies SHALL NOT appear in the Agent result. Projected evidence identity SHALL be chunk-scoped when chunk identity is available, allowing multiple excerpts from one logical source document.

||||
|
||||
#### Scenario: Project only bounded RAG evidence
|
||||
|
||||
- **WHEN** the adapter receives a logical query and the knowledge backend returns a result
|
||||
- **THEN** it invokes through ToolBoundary and exposes only the bounded `RagToolResult` evidence fields, excluding retrieval internals and full document bodies
|
||||
|
||||
#### Scenario: Multiple chunks from one source may project
|
||||
|
||||
- **WHEN** the backend returns multiple evidence blocks with the same source and different chunk-scoped identities
|
||||
- **AND** projection budgets allow them
|
||||
- **THEN** the projected evidence list SHALL include more than one item for that source
|
||||
- **AND** each item SHALL have a distinct `document_id`
|
||||
|
||||
### Requirement: Query-log projection SHALL preserve logical scope and Mock provenance
|
||||
|
||||
The query-log adapter SHALL accept only logical topic, query and optional lookback minutes, execute the existing Mock source through ToolBoundary, and project `source_kind=MOCK`, complete scope, match count, returned count, bounded patterns, bounded timeline events and truncation.
