🧭 Quick Return to Map
You are in a sub-page of LLM_Providers.
To reorient, go back here:
- LLM_Providers — model vendors and deployment options
- WFGY Global Fix Map — main Emergency Room, 300+ structured fixes
- WFGY Problem Map 1.0 — 16 reproducible failure modes
Think of this page as a desk within a ward.
If you need the full triage and all prescriptions, return to the Emergency Room lobby.
A compact field guide to stabilize Gemini calls inside RAG, agents, or long workflows. Use the checks below to localize failure, then jump to the exact WFGY fix page.
- ΔS(question, retrieved) ≤ 0.45
- Coverage ≥ 0.70 for the target section
- λ remains convergent across 3 paraphrases
- E_resonance stable on long windows
- Visual map and recovery: RAG Architecture & Recovery
- End-to-end retrieval knobs: Retrieval Playbook
- Why this snippet (traceability schema): Retrieval Traceability
- Ordering control: Rerankers
- Embedding vs meaning: Embedding ≠ Semantic
- Hallucination and chunk boundaries: Hallucination
- Long chains and entropy: Context Drift, Entropy Collapse
- Structural collapse and recovery: Logic Collapse
- Snippet and citation schema: Data Contracts
| Symptom you see | Likely cause | Fix page |
|---|---|---|
| High similarity yet wrong meaning | Metric or index mismatch | Embedding ≠ Semantic |
| Gemini cites the wrong paragraph | Chunk boundaries and trace loss | Hallucination, Retrieval Traceability |
| Answers flip across runs | λ instability on long threads | Context Drift, Entropy Collapse |
| Refuses or loops on safe content | Prompt contract not locked | Data Contracts |
| Good recall but bad ordering | Reranking missing | Rerankers |
| Corrected errors reappear | Re-entry without variance clamp | pattern_hallucination_reentry.md |
- Measure ΔS
- Compute ΔS(question, retrieved) and ΔS(retrieved, expected anchor).
- Thresholds: stable < 0.40, transitional 0.40–0.60, risk ≥ 0.60.
- Probe with λ_observe
- Vary k ∈ {5, 10, 20}. Flat high curve means metric or index mismatch.
- Reorder prompt headers. If ΔS spikes, lock the schema.
- Apply the module
- Retrieval drift → BBMC + Data Contracts.
- Reasoning collapse → BBCR bridge + BBAM variance clamp.
- Dead ends in long runs → BBPF alternate path with explicit step limits.
- Verify
- Coverage ≥ 0.70 on the target section.
- Three paraphrases keep ΔS ≤ 0.45 and λ convergent.
- Re-run with seed change and shuffled snippet order.
-
Tool and JSON calls
If the function schema is loose, Gemini may hallucinate fields. Lock schemas with Data Contracts and clamp variance with BBAM. -
Safety flips on neutral text
When the role block is not pinned, safety can overfire. Use a citation-first header from Retrieval Traceability and keep source boundaries explicit. -
Hybrid retrieval regressions
HyDE plus keyword can split queries. Check pattern_query_parsing_split.md and add a stable anchor paragraph to reduce drift. -
Long context smear
Large windows flatten meaning if chunks are not semantic. Rebuild with the chunking checklist and verify joins with ΔS probes.
read the WFGY TXT OS and Problem Map pages. extract ΔS, λ\_observe, E\_resonance and modules BBMC, BBPF, BBCR, BBAM.
given my gemini failure:
* symptom: \[brief]
* traces: \[ΔS(question, retrieved)=…, ΔS(retrieved, anchor)=…, λ states]
tell me:
1. which layer fails and why,
2. which fix page to open from this repo,
3. the minimal steps to push ΔS ≤ 0.45 and keep λ convergent,
4. how to verify with a reproducible test.
- Index or metric mismatch that stays flat after k sweeps → rebuild embeddings and check Vectorstore Fragmentation.
- Agent tools fighting each other → see Multi-Agent Problems and split memory namespaces.
- First prod call fails after deploy → check Pre-Deploy Collapse and Bootstrap Ordering.
