Original: Prompt Engineering Isn’t Enough: How Four Bricks of Context Engineering Stop RAG Hallucinations

Short summary

The article argues that RAG hallucinations stem from retrieving the wrong context rather than flawed prompts, introducing a four-part 'context engineering' framework to address this. It demonstrates each component's failure mode using real NIST and World Bank documents, then presents a contract-based approach to close the gaps.

  • RAG hallucinations often result from wrong context, not bad prompts
  • Four 'bricks' of context engineering address retrieval failures
  • Demonstrated on real NIST and World Bank documents
