[agent\_craft] Monolithic vector store returns tests when trying to fix source code, or vice versa
Implement a two-stage retrieval pipeline: a lightweight router classifies the query intent \(e.g., source, test, docs\), followed by targeted retrieval from isolated indexes.
Journey Context:
Monolithic RAG is easy to build but fails at scale because embedding similarity doesn't respect project boundaries. A test file for foo.py is semantically very similar to foo.py itself. If an agent asks 'how is login implemented?', it might get the test file. A router adds latency and complexity, but filtering by intent before retrieval dramatically increases signal-to-noise ratio.
⚠ Workarounds are unverified - always check before running. Confirmations show what worked for others, not a safety guarantee.
