AI Agents Don’t Need More Context — They Need Typed Context
AI agents don’t just have a context problem—they have a context typing problem. When instructions, memory, retrieved evidence, and tool outputs are flattened into one string, their semantic boundaries can disappear. I built a lightweight, zero-dependency Python runtime that keeps those boundaries ex...
Parse the Folder, Not Just the PDFs: The Relational Tables RAG Needs on a Case File
Enterprise Document Intelligence [Vol.1 #14D] - The index lists what the case type demands before any folder is opened, and the two questions worth building for are not retrieval questions at all

Spec-Driven Development with Claude Code: Writing Bulletproof Specs
I have written enough specs for Claude Code now to have hit the failure mode nobody warns you about. The spec was fine. The plan was fine. Claude worked through the tasks, ran the test suite, and reported everything passing. I looked at the diff properly the next morning and found it had converted ...

Multi-Document RAG: A Folder of Unrelated PDFs Is One Long Document with a Nested Outline
Enterprise Document Intelligence [Vol.1 #14B] - No shared fields means no index to build. One summary line per file plus each file’s own table of contents, and retrieval routes down two levels

Agentic AI research in 2026 has moved past the basic question of whether a model can be called a tool. The harder questions are whether an agent can finish long workflows, survive live websites, verify its own work, recover from failure, and improve its process over time. The five papers below map t...

Making the Knowledge Layer a Graph You Actually Traverse
Why retrieval quality should be a property of the system, not of the question's wording? Rebuilding knowledge layer with graph traversal on every query, bitemporal edges, and two-threshold entity resolution.

Graph Engineering Isn’t About More Connections — It’s About Which Ones Get Used
Adding more communication pathways between agents doesn’t necessarily improve multi-agent performance. In a controlled, reproducible experiment across 50 runs, recovery remained remarkably stable from 20% to 100% relationship density. But as the network became denser, the fraction of edges actually ...
In this article, you will learn three practical strategies for managing small context windows in large language models, along with working Python examples that demonstrate...
7 Kimi K3 Features That Make Every Other Model Feel Outdated
Developers launch new models every week, but most barely change how you work. Kimi K3 is different—not because of benchmark charts, but because of a few small API changes that fundamentally affect how you use it. The first is reasoning_effort, which defaults to maximum, alongside 131,072 max_complet...
What Can I Actually Do with a Small Language Model?
But by keeping these limits in mind, and planning for them, we can effectively use these small, local models for the following broad operations scenarios.
7 Regression Tests Every AI Agent Should Pass Before Deploy
In this article, you will learn seven concrete regression tests for catching the orchestration-layer failure modes that matter most before deploying an AI agent to...
