What would you like to see?

Hi, and thanks for building AnythingLLM. A lot of people are using it as their first serious RAG and agent hub, and the all in one experience is very impressive.

I work on WFGY 16 Problem Map, an open source RAG failure map that tries to capture sixteen recurring problems in real world RAG and LLM infra. Each problem has a short description and suggested structural fixes, rather than only high level advice.

Repo: https://github.com/onestardao/WFGY

Problem Map: https://github.com/onestardao/WFGY/tree/main/ProblemMap/README.md

The map focuses on things like retrieval hallucination on top of correct context, vector store ingestion and schema problems, bad chunking and embedding contracts, bootstrap ordering and infra races, secrets and config drift, and similar issues that often appear when users push RAG harder.

Suggestion: maybe the AnythingLLM docs could include WFGY 16 Problem Map as a recommended troubleshooting resource, for example in a “Debugging / Common issues / Resources” section. It would give admins and advanced users a shared language when they diagnose issues in their deployments.

If you think this fits with the project scope, I can open a small PR that adds a link in the doc page you prefer.

Thanks again for the project.

This certainly can be useful for people depending on their use case, however for the same reason we do not bundle in GraphRAG it seems like a niche utility and not a generically catch all solution (like RAG + reranking). So for something like this it would be best suited for a custom agent search skill or MCP or on its own independent fork

Thanks for reviewing & closing this! If it makes sense for the docs in the future, I’m happy to open a small PR to add the link 😊

Thanks for the thoughtful feedback — that makes sense regarding keeping the core repo focused.

If I were to write a short blog post showing how this 16-pattern debugging approach could be used as a custom agent skill or MCP-style extension for AnythingLLM users, would you be open to sharing it with the community?

No pressure at all — just checking before investing time into writing it 🙂
