- Quality Validation: Implement verification against source snippets
Conclusion
The RRF system demonstrates excellent technical performance with 100% activation rate and comprehensive source integration, representing a major achievement in multi-strategy search fusion. However, critical content quality issues require immediate attention, particularly the lack of verbatim citations and potential fabrication of responses not grounded in source material.
Priority: Fix context passing mechanism to ensure actual document content reaches the response generation system while maintaining the proven RRF search capabilities.
Status: RRF infrastructure is fully operational and ready for optimization.
