Agentic RAG: Retrieval as a Tool in a Planning Loop
Agentic RAG: Retrieval as a Tool in a Planning Loop
Why one retrieval isn’t enough
Users ask vague questions. A first retrieval may surface partial context. Agents can refine queries based on what they learn.
Iterative retrieval pattern
Draft query → Retrieve → Summarize gaps → Refine query → Retrieve → Answer
Stop conditions
Set max retrieval rounds and require “evidence coverage” before finalizing.
