Keep bindings and handlers
Web components and desktop markup retain attributes, scripts, styles, and events. The reader does not render the interface or resolve framework bindings.
Evidence and limits
An answer should give you enough evidence to check it. OmniTome keeps source identity and citations attached to retrieved knowledge, and offers optional checks for generated claims and question coverage.
Source coverage
Software readers retain exact authored spans across UI, application, interface, database, and infrastructure sources. The parse census records which reader ran and whether analysis was partial or used fallback.
Web components and desktop markup retain attributes, scripts, styles, and events. The reader does not render the interface or resolve framework bindings.
RPC schemas, SQL definitions, and recognized Entity Framework mappings remain source evidence. They do not establish the live service contract or deployed database schema.
Bicep, ARM, Terraform, Kubernetes, and Helm retain supported declarations and authored references. No reader deploys, renders templates, or resolves live resources.
From result to answer
Deterministic retrieval and model-generated answers are separate paths. The model checks below are opt-in; they add model calls and latency.
Each citation carries its locator, revision, scope, and content hash. A composed atom is included only when the sealed audience is entitled to every required input.
The optional support check distinguishes an explicit negative answer from an undocumented capability. Code verifies that a selected supporting span exists in the served source.
The optional composition check binds each proposed claim to its chosen excerpts, checks question coverage, and allows bounded repairs. A refused draft stays out of the final answer.
Evaluate your own knowledge base
Source quality, question phrasing, retrieval settings, and model choice affect usefulness. Include answerable questions, comparisons, and questions your sources cannot answer.
Compare retrieval under fixed files, settings, and embedding identity. Generated answers and external model calls have separate variability.
Write down which sources answer a question before searching. Check whether they appear, as well as which relevant sources were missed.
Inspect prerequisites, steps, exceptions, and each side of a comparison. A related passage may still leave out the part needed to act.
Count useful results separately from merely related material. Broader retrieval can improve coverage while adding irrelevant results.
Include unsupported capabilities, wrong scopes, and incomplete evidence. An explicit negative statement can answer a question; missing documentation cannot establish that negative.
Record the position of useful evidence. Exact vector search means exact distance computation; it does not guarantee semantic relevance.
Read each claim against its selected quotes. Check that the source describes the same operation, subject, and conditions as the answer.
