Why RAG Complexity Should Be Earned
Provides architectural guidance for developers building RAG systems, warning against premature complexity that doesn't address core retrieval failures.
AI Summary
Complex agentic RAG features should be added only after proving simpler retrieval methods fail, as basic retrieval often solves problems better than elaborate architectures.
