How to Evaluate This Production AI Agent & Hybrid RAG Architecture

A production-grade implementation of intelligent agentic workflows, pgvector hybrid retrieval, and automated continuous evaluation harnesses designed for scale, deterministic reliability, and zero hallucination risk.

Pillar 1 • Agents

Multi-Agent Workflows

LangGraph & Inngest state machine routing, tool-calling execution traces, and resilient error recovery loops.

Pillar 2 • RAG Core

Hybrid pgvector & BM25

Dense embeddings + sparse lexical search, Reciprocal Rank Fusion (RRF), and cross-encoder re-ranking pipelines.

Pillar 3 • Evals

Continuous Quality Evals

Automated Ragas/DeepEval benchmarking measuring Faithfulness (≥95%), Answer Relevance, and Hallucination Index.

Pillar 4 • Security

Inline LLM Firewall

OWASP LLM01 prompt injection defense, pre-inference PII masking, and dual-provider circuit breaker failover.

Vector Engine Core

Hybrid RAG & Reciprocal Rank Fusion Simulator

Combines dense 1536-dimensional semantic vector embeddings with sparse BM25 lexical full-text search, eliminating single-retriever blind spots through mathematical reciprocal rank fusion.

Dense: 0.94BM25: 8.4RRF: 0.960

PostgreSQL pgvector HNSW indexing requires m=16, ef_construction=64 for sub-10ms ANN searches over 1M 1536-dimensional embeddings. Cosine distance operator is <=>.

RAG Triad metrics enforce zero hallucinations: 1. Faithfulness checks if claims in generated output are supported by context. 2. Answer Relevance verifies user question alignment. 3. Context Recall checks retrieved ground truth coverage.

Dense: 0.87BM25: 7.2RRF: 0.880

Agentic workflows with LangGraph use typed state dictionaries (TypedDict). Nodes execute tool calls with idempotency keys; edge conditional routers verify output JSON schemas before state transition.

OWASP LLM01 Prompt Injection defense requires structured delimiters (<<<>>>) separating untrusted inputs from system prompts, plus semantic embedding anomaly detection on incoming user vectors.

Reciprocal Rank Fusion combines sparse BM25 ranks with dense cosine ANN scores: RRF = 1/(60 + rank_dense) + 1/(60 + rank_sparse). Eliminates manual hyperparameter weight tuning.
