From abc68372ea6143a91625c69ec11bfb4e905a6764 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Divergent-Code <243370656+Divergent-Code@users.noreply.github.com> Date: Thu, 16 Jul 2026 17:55:54 -0400 Subject: [PATCH 1/2] Fix RAG eval, guardrail ordering, and agent indexing in v2 notebook The v2 notebook's narrative described behavior the code didn't implement. Three substantive fixes plus two smaller ones: - RAG coverage eval always reported 100%: Chroma's query() returns the nearest top_k chunks regardless of match quality, so every requirement looked "covered" and Step 4 could never surface a real gap. Add a cosine distance threshold (and set the collection to cosine space) so weak matches are dropped and gaps show up as empty evidence lists. - Guardrails were decorative: the injection screen ran in the last cell, after the JD had already been fed through the whole pipeline, and rate_limited_call/logged_call were defined but never invoked. Define the guardrails right after setup, screen the JD at intake before any prompt, route every model call through logged_call, and repurpose Step 8 as a monitoring/audit recap. - Agent didn't index its own chunks: run_resume_tailoring_agent logged "Indexed N chunks" but never added them to Chroma and retrieved against the stale global collection. Add a reusable index_chunks() tool and give the agent its own collection. - Chroma stale state: index_chunks() delete-then-recreates the collection so re-runs don't leave chunks from a previous resume behind. - v1 GitHub call crashed on a nonexistent user (API returns a dict, not a list); guard the response and degrade gracefully.
