Assemble a Technical Requirement Brief for a RAG Feature

Assemble the module's 6 learned pieces into a complete Technical Requirement Brief, then apply that structure to a brand-new RAG domain.

Synthesize the 6 learned components into a Technical Requirement Brief structure
Apply the brief structure to a new RAG domain, without reusing prior examples
Self-assess whether a RAG brief covers all 6 required sections

Assemble a Technical Requirement Brief for a RAG Feature

This isn't new knowledge — it's a capstone exercise, assembling the 6 pieces already covered:

  1. The pipeline seen through a product lens (Lesson 16)
  2. Chunking that follows semantic boundaries (Lesson 17)
  3. Recall vs. precision, and which way to lean (Lesson 18)
  4. Grounding rules: citation, fallback, source priority (Lesson 19)
  5. Freshness: acceptable delay between a change and reindexing (Lesson 20)
  6. The failure-mode checklist plus combined test cases (Lesson 21)
