WFGY ProblemMap vs Chroma MCP Server

Provides a structured checklist of 16 common failure modes across RAG (Retrieval-Augmented Generation) systems, enabling engineers to systematically identify potential breaking points in their retrieval and generation pipeline.

Identifies failure modes specific to the retrieval component of RAG systems, such as poor document ranking, semantic mismatch, or index corruption, helping engineers diagnose why relevant context isn't being retrieved.

Outlines failure modes in the generation phase where LLMs produce incorrect, fabricated, or incoherent outputs despite receiving relevant context, helping teams identify why their model outputs are unreliable.

Identifies failure modes related to slow response times, timeouts, and resource bottlenecks in RAG/LLM pipelines, helping teams diagnose performance degradation before it impacts users.

Highlights failure modes in data ingestion, cleaning, and preprocessing stages that can corrupt embeddings, introduce noise, or create misalignment between documents and queries in RAG systems.

Identifies failure modes related to embedding model selection, version mismatches, and model degradation that can cause semantic drift or incompatibility between retrieval and generation components.

Outlines failure modes in how RAG/LLM components integrate with external services, APIs, and databases, such as connection failures, rate limiting, or data format mismatches.

Provides a comprehensive checklist to validate that a RAG/LLM system is ready for production deployment by systematically checking all 16 failure modes across the entire pipeline.
