• Utility query: 10-20ms (includes computation)
• RL prediction: 1-5ms

🏗️ Architecture

Storage Layer

AgenticDB
├── VectorDB (HNSW Index)
│   ├── vectors_table (redb)
│   └── HNSW index (O(log n) search)
│
└── AgenticDB Extension (redb)
    ├── reflexion_episodes
    ├── skills_library

    └── learning_sessions

Key Design Decisions

1. Dual Database Approach

   • Primary VectorDB for core operations
   • Separate AgenticDB database for specialized tables
   • Shared IDs for cross-referencing

2. Automatic Indexing

   • All text (critiques, descriptions, contexts) → embeddings
   • Embeddings automatically indexed in VectorDB
   • Fast similarity search across all tables

3. Hypergraph Support

   • Vec for causes and effects
   • Enables complex multi-node relationships
   • More expressive than simple edges

4. Confidence Intervals

   • Statistical confidence for RL predictions
   • Helps agents understand uncertainty
   • 95% confidence bounds using t-distribution

🔬 Technical Highlights

1. Embedding Generation

// Placeholder implementation (hash-based)
// Production would use sentence-transformers or similar
fn generate_text_embedding(&self, text: &str) -> Result<Vec<f32>>

Note: Current implementation uses simple hash-based embeddings for demonstration. Production systems should integrate actual embedding models like:

• sentence-transformers
• OpenAI embeddings
• Cohere embeddings
• Custom fine-tuned models

2. Utility Function

U = α·similarity + β·causal_uplift − γ·latency

where:
  α = 0.7 (default) - Weight for semantic similarity
  β = 0.2 (default) - Weight for causal confidence
  γ = 0.1 (default) - Penalty for query latency

3. Hypergraph Causal Edges

pub struct CausalEdge {
    pub causes: Vec<String>,   // Multiple causes
    pub effects: Vec<String>,  // Multiple effects
    pub confidence: f64,
    // ...
}

Supports complex relationships like:

[high_cpu, memory_leak] → [slowdown, crash, errors]

4. Multi-Algorithm RL Support

pub enum Algorithm {
    QLearning,
    DQN,
    PPO,
    A3C,
    DDPG,
    SAC,
    Custom(String),
}

📝 Example Usage

Complete Workflow

use ruvector_core::{AgenticDB, DbOptions};

fn main() -> Result<()> {
    let db = AgenticDB::with_dimensions(128)?;

    // 1. Agent fails and reflects
    db.store_episode(
        "Optimize query".into(),
        vec!["wrote query".into(), "ran on prod".into()],
        vec!["timeout".into()],
        "Should test on staging first".into(),
    )?;

    // 2. Learn causal relationship
    db.add_causal_edge(
        vec!["no index".into()],
        vec!["slow query".into()],
        0.95,
        "DB performance".into(),
    )?;

    // 3. Create skill from success
    db.create_skill(
        "Query Optimizer".into(),
        "Optimize slow queries".into(),
        HashMap::new(),
        vec!["EXPLAIN ANALYZE".into()],
    )?;

    // 4. Train RL model
    let session = db.start_session("Q-Learning".into(), 4, 2)?;
    db.add_experience(&session, state, action, reward, next_state, false)?;

    // 5. Apply learnings
    let episodes = db.retrieve_similar_episodes("query optimization", 5)?;
    let skills = db.search_skills("optimize queries", 5)?;
    let causal = db.query_with_utility("performance", 5, 0.7, 0.2, 0.1)?;
    let action = db.predict_with_confidence(&session, current_state)?;

    Ok(())
}
