For developers and data engineers relying on advanced indexing frameworks, encountering missing search results can disrupt workflows and limit the value of data-driven applications. CocoIndex and CocoInsight introduce powerful query-to-data traceability features to streamline issue detection, accelerate debugging, and ensure high retrieval accuracy for structured and unstructured data.
Using CocoInsight and Query Handlers for End-to-End Traceability
CocoInsight’s Query Mode and custom Query Handlers enable developers to diagnose issues with missing search results by directly linking query responses with the originating data and indexing path:
Score Inspection: Analyze ranking scores to understand why certain chunks are omitted.
Chunk Lineage: Trace each result back to its transformation logic, seeing exactly how input was chunked, embedded, and stored.
Transformation Debugging: With shared transformation flows (via
@cocoindex.transform_flow()), guarantee consistent embedding logic across indexing and querying, preventing silent failures.
Step-by-Step Debugging for Missing Chunks
Search for the target entity in CocoInsight and locate the missing snippet.
Use built-in traceability to review the chunk’s origin, including split logic and transformation steps.
Compare query embeddings and stored embeddings for alignment.
Adjust chunking patterns or thresholds to ensure relevant context is included.
Re-index affected files, leveraging CocoIndex’s incremental update mode to minimize reprocessing time.
