Report #3128

[agent\_craft] RAG pipeline dumps massive code chunks into context, diluting the instruction signal

Route RAG results through a secondary extraction step \(code execution or smaller LLM\) to extract only the specific signatures, types, or logic relevant to the query before injecting into the main agent context.

Journey Context:
Naive RAG just pastes the top-K chunks. For coding agents, a 100-line chunk might only have 1 relevant function. Injecting the whole chunk wastes context and introduces distraction. Tradeoff: extra latency for the extraction step vs. saved context and higher reasoning accuracy.
