[research] Conflating API signatures across different library versions

Inject the specific library version into the system prompt or context window before generating code; enforce strict version pinning in generated requirements.txt and fetch the version-specific documentation via RAG.

Journey Context:
LLMs are trained on code spanning multiple versions of a library \(e.g., TensorFlow 1.x vs 2.x, or LangChain 0.1 vs 0.2\). They confidently generate code that mixes imports and methods from different versions, creating impossible runtime states. Without explicit version grounding, the model defaults to the highest-token-density version mix. Pinning forces the model into a specific subspace of its training data.
