# R2R - Doramagic AI Context Pack

> Purpose: pre-work context for the user's host AI. This pack does not prove that the project has been installed, run, or validated.

## Project

- canonical_name: `SciPhi-AI/R2R`
- capability: SoTA production-ready AI retrieval system. Agentic Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) with a RESTful API.
- expected_user_outcome: SoTA production-ready AI retrieval system. Agentic Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) with a RESTful API.

## Operating Boundaries

- Do not claim that the project has been installed, run, called through an API, or used on local files unless separate evidence proves it.
- Project facts must come from repo evidence, Claim Graph, or explicit source references.
- When a capability is not verified, mark it as unverified instead of completing it as fact.
- publish_status: `publishable`
- blocking_gaps: none

## Doramagic Context Augmentation

The following sections strengthen the repository context for a host AI. Human Manual data is a reading route, and pitfall notes become operating constraints.

## Human Manual Outline

Usage rule: this is only a reading route and salience signal, not factual authority. Concrete claims must still return to repo evidence or Claim Graph.

Host AI hard rules:
- Do not treat page titles, section order, summaries, or importance values as factual project evidence.
- When explaining the Human Manual outline, state that it is only a reading route or salience signal.
- Capability, installation, compatibility, runtime state, and risk claims must cite repo evidence, source paths, or Claim Graph.

- **Introduction, Installation & SDK Usage**: importance `high`
  - source_paths: py/README.md, py/sdk/README.md, js/sdk/README.md, js/README.md, py/r2r/serve.py
- **REST API, Services & Provider Architecture**: importance `high`
  - source_paths: py/core/main/api/v3/base_router.py, py/core/main/api/v3/documents_router.py, py/core/main/api/v3/retrieval_router.py, py/core/main/api/v3/graph_router.py, py/core/main/api/v3/users_router.py
- **Ingestion Modes, Parsers, Search & Agentic RAG**: importance `high`
  - source_paths: py/core/providers/ingestion/r2r/base.py, py/core/providers/ingestion/unstructured/base.py, py/core/parsers/text/html_parser.py, py/core/parsers/structured/csv_parser.py, py/core/main/orchestration/simple/ingestion_workflow.py
- **Deployment, Configuration, Extensibility & Troubleshooting**: importance `high`
  - source_paths: docker/compose.yaml, docker/compose.full.yaml, docker/compose.full.swarm.yaml, docker/env/r2r.env, docker/env/r2r-full.env

## Repo Inspection Evidence

- repo_clone_verified: true
- repo_inspection_verified: true
- repo_commit: `9c5a94d151f90876bd7eb860f300a8fd662dc481`
- inspected_files: `docs/README.md`, `docs/cookbooks/application.md`, `docs/cookbooks/custom-tools.md`, `docs/cookbooks/email.md`, `docs/cookbooks/evals.md`, `docs/cookbooks/graphs.md`, `docs/cookbooks/ingestion.md`, `docs/cookbooks/local.md`, `docs/cookbooks/logging.md`, `docs/cookbooks/maintenance.md`, `docs/cookbooks/mcp.md`, `docs/cookbooks/orchestration.md`, `docs/cookbooks/structured-output.md`, `docs/cookbooks/web-dev.md`, `docs/documentation/README.md`, `docs/documentation/advanced/contextual-enrichment.md`, `docs/documentation/advanced/deduplication.md`, `docs/documentation/general/collections.md`, `docs/documentation/general/conversations.md`, `docs/documentation/general/documents.md`

Host AI hard rules:
- Without repo_clone_verified=true, do not claim that the source code has been read.
- Without repo_inspection_verified=true, do not write README, docs, or package-file conclusions as facts.
- Without quick_start_verified=true, do not claim that the Quick Start path has run successfully.

## Doramagic Pitfall Constraints

These rules come from Doramagic discovery, validation, or compilation findings. The host AI must treat them as operating constraints, not background notes.

### Constraint 1: Installation risk requires verification

- Trigger: Project evidence flags a installation risk. Review the linked source before relying on this workflow.
- Host AI rule: Reproduce the official install and quickstart path in an isolated environment.
- Why it matters: May increase setup, validation, or first-run risk for the user.
- Evidence: community_evidence:github | https://github.com/SciPhi-AI/R2R/issues/2276
- Hard boundary: Do not present this pitfall as solved, verified, or ignorable unless later evidence explicitly closes it.

### Constraint 2: Security or permission risk requires verification
