SPEC-DRIVEN ENGINEERING: HOW WE BUILD DETERMINISTIC GUARDRAILS FOR CUSTOM AI SOFTWARE

Relying on LLMs to write raw code or handle business logic without strict specs leads to non-deterministic failure. Spec-driven development combines typed schemas, state machines, and eval harnesses to guarantee production stability.

ENGINEERING CASE STUDY: BUILDING A SUB-100MS HYBRID VECTOR-GRAPH RETRIEVAL ENGINE FOR ENTERPRISE DATA

Standard vector search lacks relational intelligence, while knowledge graphs struggle with unstructured semantic similarity. Here is how we combined pgvector and Neo4j into a single sub-100ms GraphRAG architecture for an enterprise financial client.
