Evaluating Retrieval, Chunking, and Generation in Production
# Prompt Engineering Patterns That Actually Work in Production Prompt engineering is more than just writing instructions. To achieve consistent, structured output from LLMs in enterprise systems, we rely on established prompt design patterns. ## Reusable Production Patterns - **Structured Output Constraints**: Enforcing JSON schemas directly in prompts. - **Few-Shot Delimiters**: Using specific tags to separate examples from inputs. - **Role-Based Framing**: Setting context parameters to limit response scope.

Closing Takeaways

Measure retrieval precision and recall in isolation before touching the model.
Chunk along document structure, not arbitrary character counts.
Combine vector and keyword search — hybrid retrieval beats either alone.
Treat evaluation as continuous infrastructure, not a launch-week report.
