Report #93983

[synthesis] RAG-retrieved context appears complete but contains truncated syntax \(half functions, broken JSON\) due to naive chunking boundaries

Enforce syntax-aware chunking using tree-sitter parsers for code or recursive JSON splitters; validate retrieved chunks for parseability before injection and abort if brackets/quotes are unbalanced

Journey Context:
Standard character-count chunking splits tokens mid-token. Agents assume retrieved context is semantically complete, leading to hallucinated completions of partial functions. Syntax-aware chunking is computationally expensive but prevents the 'ghost syntax' issue where agents generate code that references variables defined in the truncated portion, creating phantom dependencies.
