Building Retrieval Stacks for Reliable Agents
Agents are only as good as what they can find. In this hands-on Engineer Up workshop, engineers from Realm hand you a stripped-down version of their production retrieval stack and challenge you to make it better.
You’ll start from a working baseline that retrieves well enough, but an agent running on it still struggles with some queries. Step by step, you’ll improve it and measure your progress against real evaluations.
What you’ll explore
How agents use retrieval, and how to design tools for them Debugging queries that fail Ranking and reranking techniques Advanced retrieval methods used in production
The challenge A leaderboard tracks progress, with Realm’s own configuration as the entry to beat.
