Owner

Split out of #3707 at the owner's request (21 Oct 2026), so that the table-row grouping gets its own canary pair.

  • RAG-A-02 Table facts are grouped per chunk (up to 5, deduplicated by id) instead of one. The chunk keeps its best fact's score, so scores and ordering are unchanged.

Before: when several table rows matched the same chunk, a lower-ranked row was dropped along with its lower score, so only about one structured row survived per chunk. After: every matching row is kept (the five highest-ranked by text_rank, ties in arrival order).

Changes: groupTableFactMatches and maxTableFactsPerChunk in src/lib/rag/rag-candidate-sources.ts, used by searchTableFactCandidates, plus tests/table-fact-grouping.test.ts.

RAG impact: behaviour change. This applies as soon as it deploys against the existing corpus (no re-index needed). Any query whose table RPC returns several rows for one chunk will now expose up to five rows instead of one.

Canary plan

The eval-canary only measures main (docs/rag-behaviour/safeguards.md), so the pair runs around the merge, and only once the OpenAI quota on the GitHub Actions key allows (the last run, 18 Oct, failed with "OpenAI quota is exhausted"):

  1. Baseline: dispatch eval-canary on main immediately before merging. It must be green.
  2. Merge this PR.
  3. Post-merge: dispatch eval-canary again and compare with --fail-on-regression (recall pinned at 1.0, zero per-case RR regressions).
  4. Any regression means a single-commit revert of this PR and a confirmation run.

Stays a draft until the quota is available and the baseline is green.

Evidence (local)

table-fact-grouping, table-facts and table-fact-ranking Vitest: 8 passed (b12d5c6). npm run typecheck clean. eslint clean on the changed files.


Summary by cubic

Fixes table-fact grouping (RAG-A-02) so every matching table row per chunk is kept—up to five, deduplicated by id, keeping the highest-ranked facts—instead of only the single highest-ranked row. A higher-ranked row from a sibling variant displaces a lower-ranked one once the cap is full, and a duplicated fact keeps its higher-ranked copy.

The chunk's winning fact is now chosen by text rank rather than hybrid score, since the hybrid score is capped and can tie rows with high ts_rank_cd; ties keep the first row. The chunk's score remains tied to its best fact, so ranking and ordering are unchanged.

The change applies immediately on deploy with no re-index needed; any query returning multiple table rows for a chunk now exposes up to five rows instead of one. It adds groupTableFactMatches and maxTableFactsPerChunk in src/lib/rag/rag-candidate-sources.ts, with tests in tests/table-fact-grouping.test.ts.

Written for commit 5574366. Summary will update on new commits.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Bug Fixes

    • Improved table-fact search results by grouping matches by source chunk.
    • Results now prioritize the highest-ranked facts, remove duplicate query variants, and retain up to five distinct facts per chunk.
    • Lower-ranked matches can be replaced when a stronger match is found, improving result quality and consistency.
  • Tests

    • Added coverage for ranking, deduplication, result limits, chunk separation, and score preservation.

Group table-fact matches per source chunk, keeping up to five facts
(deduplicated by id) while the chunk keeps its best fact's score.
Split out of #3707 so it gets its own canary pair.

The retrieval path now groups table-fact rows by source chunk before chunk hydration. It retains up to five highest-ranked, ID-deduplicated facts per chunk and preserves the score and reason from the highest-ranked fact.

groupTableFactMatches groups facts by chunk, deduplicates by ID, ranks facts, and keeps up to five per chunk. searchTableFactCandidates uses the helper before chunk hydration. Tests cover ranking, duplicate handling, the five-fact limit, chunk separation, and score calculations.

Addresses Gitar review: a higher-ranked row from a sibling variant could be cut by the
five-fact cap while still setting the chunk's score. Also restores the searchTableFactCandidates

Disabled auto-merge that gitar-bot enabled at 3:42 PM AWST. Per the owner, this PR should only be armed once the eval-canary shows no regression, and the canary only measures main (see Canary plan). That needs an owner decision on the merge-then-canary order, so it stays unarmed for now. — Grok Bot

I approve picking each chunk's best table row by textRank in #3711.

Addresses CodeRabbit review: hybridScore is capped, so rows with ts_rank_cd above 1 tied and a
better later row did not update the chunk's textRank or reason. Ties keep the first row.
Owner-approved on #3711 (16:59 AWST).

Code Review ✅ Approved 1 closed / 1 findings

🟡 Medium risk · Returning up to five table facts per chunk changes retrieved evidence, which could surface lower-relevance rows and alter downstream answers.

Keeps every matching table row per chunk (up to five, deduplicated by id, highest text_rank first) instead of only one, with the chunk's score still tied to its best fact. The finding that the five-fact cap could drop the row setting the chunk's score has been resolved. No open issues found.

✅ 1 closed
✅ Edge Case: Five-fact cap can drop the row that sets the chunk's score

📄 src/lib/rag/rag-candidate-sources.ts:1779-1793 📄 src/lib/rag/rag-candidate-sources.ts:1839-1849
searchTableFactCandidates flattens the primary variant's rows first, then the sibling variants' rows (lines 1839-1844). groupTableFactMatches keeps facts in arrival order and calls .slice(0, maxTableFactsPerChunk). So if the primary variant returns five lower-ranked rows for a chunk and a sibling variant later returns a higher-ranked row for the same chunk, that row is cut from tableFacts. Its score is still used: next.hybridScore > current.hybridScore takes next, which carries the truncated list. The chunk is then ranked on a row that downstream code never receives (the clinical-search.ts haystack, rag-source-block.ts, the context pack). The old code had the same slice, but it only added facts when the score went up, so it rarely filled five slots. Now that every fact is kept, this case is much more likely. A fix is to keep the top five by text_rank instead of the first five. That doesn't change scores or result order.
