The vault is designed, but it is currently empty. We will master the process of taking your raw Markdown files and digesting them so the engine can retrieve them during a live orchestration.
In the world of RAG, your AI is only as smart as the data it can actually find.
Intent
You will have a Python-based Pipeline that reads your project’s .md or .mdx files, cleans them, and chunks them using semantic boundaries to ensure no context is lost.
Background
Ingestion is not a simple file upload, it is a transformation. We are stripping the prose and extracting the Semantic DNA of your code and documentation to move from concept to functional memory in a single cycle.
The ETL Flow
In data engineering, we use ETL (Extract, Transform, Load).
Pipeline
Extract: Reading the raw .md / .mdx or .ts files from your forge.
Transform: Cleaning out frontmatter and chunking the text so it fits the AI’s immediate focus.
Load: Sending these chunks to the embedding model and saving them in our vault.
The Cleaning Phase
Raw Markdown contains noise that can confuse a reasoning engine. The frontmatter, imports, and JSX components are useful for your website, but they are junk data for semantic search.
When ingesting, we prioritize prose and logic. We remove the visual fluff to ensure the vector strictly represents the meaning of the content.
Ingestor Implementation
We will build the ingest script by using a Recursive Character Splitter, a tool that breaks text down while respecting the structure of your writing (prioritizing headings, then paragraphs, then sentences).
Install Dependencies We need langchain-text-splitters to handle the heavy lifting of semantic chunking.
Terminal window
pipinstall-q-Ulangchain-text-splitters
The Cleaning Logic We use regex to strip the YAML frontmatter before the AI reads the file.
The Splitter Configuration We set a chunk_size of 1000 characters with a 100-character overlap to ensure continuity.
You have successfully built the Scout for your pipeline. Your data is no longer a wall of text; it is a collection of high-density semantic fragments ready to be turned into math.
Data in motion stays in context.
