Suggestion: supplemental troubleshooting resource for downstream LLM and RAG failure patterns

[onestardao]

Hi, I’d like to suggest a practical companion resource that may be useful as supplemental reading for learners who move from model-building into real-world LLM and RAG usage.

The resource is the WFGY RAG 16 Problem Map, a framework-agnostic troubleshooting checklist for diagnosing common downstream failure patterns in LLM and retrieval-heavy workflows.

It focuses on practical issues such as:

• retrieval misses
• stale or mismatched context
• chunking / embedding mismatch
• citation instability
• answer inconsistency
• reasoning breakdowns in multi-step pipelines

Reference:
https://github.com/onestardao/WFGY/blob/main/ProblemMap/README.md

The WFGY repository is currently around 1.6k stars, and this Problem Map has already been referenced or integrated by several public RAG / LLM ecosystem projects, including:

• RAGFlow
• LlamaIndex
• ToolUniverse (Harvard MIMS Lab)
• Rankify
• Multimodal RAG Survey (QCRI LLM Lab)

I think it may be helpful as a practical “what goes wrong after the model works” companion reference for readers who want a structured way to think about downstream LLM / RAG failure diagnosis.

If this seems appropriate, I’d be happy to open a small PR with a concise one-line description and minimal repo-style wording.

Thanks for considering it.

Thanks for suggesting. This is a nice resource but would be out of scope here, because this repo is unrelated to RAG.
